Normal Attack
Shoots fireballs that deal up to three counts of Pyro DMG.
When Yanfei’s Normal Attacks hit enemies, they will grant her a single Scarlet Seal. Yanfei may possess a maximum of 3 Scarlet Seals, and each time this effect is triggered, the duration of currently possessed Scarlet Seals will refresh.
Each Scarlet Seal will decrease Yanfei’s Stamina consumption and will disappear when she leaves the field.
Charged Attack

This Charged Attack’s AoE and DMG will increase according to the amount of Scarlet Seals consumed.
Plunging Attack
Gathering the power of Pyro, Yanfei plunges towards the ground from mid-air, damaging all opponents in her path. Deals AoE Pyro DMG upon impact with the ground.

Opponents hit by the flames will grant Yanfei the maximum number of Scarlet Seals.

Brilliance
Has the following effects:
Grants Yanfei a Scarlet Seal at fixed intervals.
Increases the DMG dealt by her Charged Attacks.
The effects of Brilliance will end if Yanfei leaves the field or falls in battle.
When Yanfei consumes Scarlet Seals by using a Charged Attack, each Scarlet Seal will increase Yanfei’s Pyro DMG Bonus by 5%. This effects [sic] lasts for 6s. When a Charged Attack is used again during the effect’s duration, it will dispel the previous effect.
When Yanfei’s Charged Attack deals a CRIT Hit to opponents, she will deal an additional instance of AoE Pyro DMG equal to 80% of her ATK. This DMG counts as Charged Attack DMG.
Displays the location of nearby resources unique to Liyue on the mini-map.

Yanfei is often called a budget Klee due to the similarity of their playstyles. She also uses similar weapons and artifacts, but the main difference here is accessibility. Yanfei can alleviate some of her disadvantages by just getting constellations. This is much easier for a 4-star than a 5-star.
Any of these weapons would work for Yanfei as she has a lot of flexibility regarding weapons.
Increases Movement SPD by 10%. When in battle, gain an 8% Elemental DMG Bonus every 4s. Max 4 stacks. Lasts until the character falls or leaves combat.
Normal Attack hits on opponents increase Charged Attack DMG by 16% for 6s.
Charged Attack hits on opponents increase ATK by 8% for 6s.
When a character takes the field, they will gain a random theme song for 10s. This can only occur once every 30s.
Recitative: ATK is increased by 60%.
Aria: Increases all Elemental DMG by 48%.
Interlude: Elemental Mastery is increased by 240.
Triggering an Elemental reaction grants a 8% Elemental DMG Bonus for 10s. Max 2 stacks.
Yanfei’s artifacts differ heavily from what kind of team composition you have. If your team composition revolves heavily around Melt and Vaporize, go for a 4-piece Crimson Witch of Flames. If you want a generalist set, it’s going to be 4-piece Wanderer’s Troupe.
Main stats to look out for are ATK/Elemental Mastery Sands, Pyro DMG% Goblet, Crit Rate/Crit Damage Circlet depending on your Crit Rate.
Yes. Many of Yanfei’s Constellations increase the power and utility of her Scarlet Seals.
If you’re committed to building Yanfei as your DPS main, it’s well worth getting her Constellations all the way up to Level 6, so you can benefit from an increased cap on this useful stamina bonus.
No details on Yanfei’s age are shown in the game.
But it’s confirmed that Yanfei’s birthday is July 28th, on which day you’ll get a gift from miHoYo.
Yanfei is a DPS that can inflict Pyro easily making her able to deal with constant Elemental Reaction. This team maximizes and supports the damage from those Reactions.
No. Yanfei is a four-star Genshin Impact character who wields a catalyst and harnesses the power of pyro. We first got to hear about her and Eula during the Genshin Impact update 1.5 special programme on April 16, 2021.
Inventive players have discovered that Yanfei can succeed as support instead.
The new character – Yanfei supports the build and relies on her fourth constellation upgrade. Supreme Amnesty creates a shield equal to 45% of Yanfei’s max HP whenever she uses her elemental burst.
Not really. Generally speaking, most catalyst users in Genshin Impact will work well with the Raiden Shogun because their normal attacks apply for elemental status.
However, some catalysts work better than others based on their skills. For example, Yanfei can be an economical choice.
The best team to work with Yanfei includes Zhongli, Xinqiu, and Bennett.
