Best Echo Sets for Yinlin
Yinlin's kit features coordinated attacks that deal non-negligible damage. With that in mind, the new Empyrean Anthem is now her best-in-slot Sonata Effect.
Before arriving in Rinascita, you should build Yinlin as a support for another Electro unit.
If you're missing a DPS unit and only have Yinlin, Void Thunder is going to be your go-to Sonata Effect.
Yinlin's Best Primary Echo
Nightmare: Tempest Mephis
Increases the Coordinated Attack DMG of Yinlin by a lot while buffing her Electro DMG and Resonance Skill DMG. Perfect for Yinlin as an Electro Sub-DPS with Coordinated Attacks.
Impermanence Heron
Restores Yinlin's Resonance Energy so she can cast her Ultimate more. Increases the next character's DMG dealt, good for a semi-support role for Yinlin.
Tempest Mephis
The normal version of the best-in-slot echo for Yinlin. It won't have the Empyrean Anthem sonata effect so you're stuck with Void Thunder. Only use this if you're not in Rinascita yet!
