Build Notes
Rank #4
This endgame build maximizes Yvonne's single-target burst potential by stacking Cryo DMG, Critical Rate, and Intellect. Artzy Tyrannical is the best-in-slot weapon, with Navigator as a strong alternative. The MI Security gear set synergizes with her crit-heavy playstyle, and the full set bonus boosts ATK significantly during her Ultimate window. Prioritize upgrading her Ultimate and Basic Attacks first.
Artzy Tyrannical is chosen because its Cryo DMG buff after critical hits synergizes with Yvonne's high crit rate from gear and her Ultimate's stacking mechanic.
Navigator is a solid battle pass alternative that provides Cryo DMG and crit rate when Solidification is applied, which Yvonne does frequently.
MI Security set gives +5% crit rate and stacking ATK on crits, which Yvonne can maintain during her enhanced Basic Attacks. The individual pieces also provide Intellect and Basic Attack DMG.
- For an off-piece, consider Pulser Labs Gloves for higher Cryo DMG, but the full MI Security set provides consistent ATK stacking.
- Use Artzy Tyrannical's effect after a critical hit to stack Cryo DMG; it aligns perfectly with her Ultimate's rapid attacks.
Rank #2
This early game build uses easily obtainable gear to boost Yvonne's damage. Wedge provides a solid stat stick for Arts DMG and crit rate, while Mordvolt Insulation increases her Intellect and Arts DMG. It is a cost-effective setup for progressing through the first region, and can later be replaced by the MI Security set for endgame content.
Wedge is a 4-star weapon that grants Arts DMG and crit rate, boosting Yvonne's early damage without requiring high investment.
Mordvolt Insulation set gives flat Intellect (+50) and conditional Arts DMG when HP is high, which is easy to maintain in early content.
The set pieces offer Intellect, Cryo DMG, and crit rate substats, aligning with Yvonne's scaling needs.
- This build is for levels 15-30 and helps transition into Wuling. Upgrade gradually to MI Security set in midgame.
- Wedge provides Arts DMG and crit rate, which are universal stats for Yvonne. Howling Guard is a budget option if Wedge is unavailable.
