SUPPORT: Yaoyao focuses on healing and applying Dendro with her Elemental Skill and Burst. She can be used in a wide range of team archetypes, but do note her Dendro application from her Elemental Skill alone is generally insufficient for Bloom/Hyperbloom/Burgeon teams as a solo Dendro option.
Regarding Weapon Choices:

  • Favonius Lance: This weapon is a good generalist option for Yaoyao, providing Energy Recharge with a useful passive.
  • Rightful Reward: This weapon performs worse if you are not planning to use Yaoyao's Elemental Burst.
  • Kitain Cross Spear: This weapon can be better than Favonius Lance in teams where Yaoyao has a significant amount of Bloom ownership.

Regarding Artifact Sets:
  • Deepwood Memories (4): This set is the default option in teams where you care about reducing Dendro resistance and nobody else on the team is using it.
  • Tenacity of the Millelith (4): This set is a good option in teams where reducing Dendro resistance is not important, such as Yaoyao, Anemo, two Electro damage dealers (Aggravate).
  • Instructor (4): Similarly to Tenacity, this set can be a good option in teams where reducing Dendro resistance is not important, or if someone else on the team is already using Deepwood Memories. Do note that Yaoyao has to trigger a reaction on-field to provide the 4pc bonus. Additionally, your stat potential on this set will be limited as it does not come in 5* rarity.
  • Ocean-Hued Clam (4): This set is a good option in teams where you on-field Yaoyao and a supportive set is not needed.
  • Flower of Paradise Lost (4)/Gilded Dreams (4)/EM (2) set mixes: These sets are specifically for Nilou Bloom teams where Yaoyao has a significant amount of Bloom ownership and is built with Elemental Mastery. Do note that Ocean-Hued Clam (4) can still be better in these teams, assuming you on-field Yaoyao.

Regarding Mainstat and Substat Choices:
  • In a Bloom team where Yaoyao has a significant amount of Bloom ownership, Elemental Mastery is preferred as a mainstat on your Goblet and Circlet, Elemental Mastery can also be used on your Sands if an Energy Recharge Sands is not required.
  • Additionally, Elemental Mastery substats become good.
