All the other charts have the correct damage numbers for the Elegy and Favonius, so you can just fast forward to 9:45 for the correct full chart for the in-game showcases. 2. The charts all say 5 stars for the 4 star weapons... Ugh! The 4 star weapons are all in blue... I missed that detail through copying and pasting -_-

The massive ER boost lets you refocus your subs on more crit and/or run a HP sands and the white particles are a really powerful contribution to energy hungry teams. It's a solid 4 slimes in actual gameplay IMO unless you're running double hydro for more energy.

This channel has a reputation for being a joke in the meta community. Just wait for KeqingMains to come up with the real numbers, and you'll see they will be quite different than what's here. This guy doesn't take into consideration ER requirements for Yelan, and getting her burst back up in time for her next cycle. The calculation should have been two Yelan cycles and take the total damage divided by the total time for the true number. If Yelan is floundering around for 20 seconds waiting for her energy to return, it will dramatically lower her dps.

@Axterix13

The ability to use an HP sands doesn't necessarily put it ahead of other bows. For example, with an R5 Stringless, you can go with energy regen sands, plus an hp goblet, and the Stringless will provide DMG about equal to a hydro goblet for most of her damage (not the charged shot). With the Recurve Bow, you're getting hp% from the bow, so that offsets the energy regen sands. That said, I would agree that Favonius is better than those two, at least for a C0 Yelan (which this list is for), since it also provides particles for both her and the team. Wouldn't go so far as to say four slimes, since I think Elegy is both properly rated and a better choice overall, but I would put it at a 3.5, as the best four star option.

@Boomdizzle99

He doesnt need to rate it that high since Elegy exists. Elegy outclasses favonius in every way and like he said she does so much dmg herself theres no reason to sacrifice all of her dmg for her teammates. Besides you can use fischl or raiden to funnel ER....

Fav bow and sac bow is being underrated in this chart. Fav bow while does not increase Yelan’s damage but it provides tons of energy for herself and her teammates, it allows her and her team run with less ER and focus more on damage. Sac bow, while a bit more situational, is very fun to used. When fight mobs, you can trigger it’s passive and effectively gain another extra charge for her E. While it doesn’t increases her burst damage, it can double her E and break through barb damage.

Love your content as always and what a great translation of the elegy for the end passive haha

I forgot to mention that I like how you always do comparison video which me (or also majority of players) would like to see. Great kudos to you!

Depending on the team, the overall damage can be way higher with Elegy for the End but that requires a good rotation to make a great use of its buff. Aqua simulacra in the other side it is pretty much straight as regardless the rotation and team you choose damage will still be the same. I would like to pull aqua simulacra but I rather save for Sumeru so I will just stick to Elegy for now.

Sacrificial bow feels really good on her aswell.

I think you should have set ER requirement to make her burst every rotation (you can assume Raiden/Double Hydro/Another Fav user as long as you stated it).

EoSF is a good choice if you can maximize it as you get a base boost of +20%ER and +30% burst damage but using EoSF doesn't mean choosing an ER weapon works better for damage but Elegy or Favonus' additional utility is what makes them really good choices

Thanks for this as always!!

Perfect video. Thanks man.

Yelan seems to need a lot of ER. Wouldn’t it of been more fair to use a ER% time piece on her when comparing the aqua simalacra and vice versa with a hp% on the ER weapons (which I think you did but not sure). This makes the aqua out to do a lot more damage but in practice it could be different cause of burst up time.

I believe its depends on your team comps. If your teams consist another battery for example Xingqiu or Raiden, then the energy requirement should be as minimal as possible to maximize Yelan personal damage. But if your Yelan roles is support (Hydro application for HuTao, Yomiya, Xiangling) or there's no other battery in your team then yes, ER stat should be prioritize for practical usage.

I run her with 148% ER on taser team and its inaff

I'm running Favonius Warbow and 4pc Emblem on my Yelan as a support in my Yoimya team. My Yelan is working with 230% ER in order to have full uptime on her burst in my rotations. I would say she needs at the very least 200% along with the white energy procs from Favonius's skill just to keep her burst up unless you're running her with Shogun. I would definitely prioritize Energy Recharge bows on her over anything else otherwise you'll spend entire rotations without her burst. Pairing her with Xingqui to produce even more Hydro particles is an option but doing so is also lowering her damage. She has a passive that increases her Max HP the more elements you have in a party. With 3 different elements she gets 18% HP but with 4 elements she gets 30%. That's too significant for me to want double Hydro. In short, I would put Favonius as damn near her best weapon option as nothing else will give her the same uptime on her burst. Players could manage with an ER Sands but why do that instead of an HP% Sands? You'd miss out on a lot of damage that way.

agree with you favonius war bow makes it more consistent burst uptime.. but if I use xq I make him as a battery for yelan so that I can switch her bow out with skyward harp since I don't have her sig bow yet.. but if solo hydro with hu tao or raiden comp I use favonius warbow for better uptime results..

Bows like Skyward Harp can work but are little more than stat sticks if you're really hurting for Crit Rate. It doesn't offer much more than some of the 3 star options so far as damage or utility are concerned. The jump from 18 to 30% HP is a result of her passive. If you pair her with XQ you lose almost half the HP gained from that passive. That's what I was trying to say. If you run an ER Sands instead of HP% then it's 46% HP you're losing. You're better off using an ER weapon since you're unlikely to get HP% from a weapon. The only one that gives HP% is one of the 3 star options. Xingqui works well with her. I l'm not saying he doesn't. They can actually battery for each other and remove the need to use Sacrificial on Xingqui. I just prefer to make full use of her passive and let another team use Xingqui. The resonance for double Hydro is also not worth mentioning.

So if i running her with raiden,is it worth to use stringless r2?

This is why i wait for your review the most. The best dad jokes with accurate information 💯

Amazing video man

She requires a certain balance between HP bonus, crit rate, crit damage, hydro damage bonus and energy recharge. I'm happy to have her C0 + FWB R5

Honestly i strongly disagree on terms of evaluation because you are just taking damage output into consideration to measure them until u mention Elegy(being that said, support skills of the bow should have not being considered into rating). Favonious not being the "best" at making damge is a sure thing but, its the best at making sure u do get ut Q back maintaining a high damage cuz of the emblem ER buff.. wich is kinda my point... u just cant do a good rotation on 150% ER on a C0 yelan on teams like hutao ones with those 5 star bows unless u kill 3-4 foes with E.. it will work with Raiden but who doesnt work with her? if u cant get ur Q back theres no point on measure damage cuz ur loosing dps waiting to get another E to charge up wich is not optimal at all... i dont think u should drop the rate for those 5 star bows but get a higher rate for Fav(at minimum 4 slimes, displaying it at the best not 5 star one, wich it is all around and have been proved by a lot of other ppl aorund the the community). I have tested this extensively myself also, being Fav r5 even better and easier to build with than Aqua...that of course its her signature weapon but its designed to make you need her c1 cuz she does lack a lot ER(around 180-190% minimum being the only hydro on team with no raiden), or forcing u to get an ER clock with GODLY substats with high rolls, and good luck getting a GODLIKE ER CLOCK on emblem set. i have being 3 months farming it frecuently and i have 2 decent with CV near 15-20. Im a data and indicator analyst at a bank and i honestly love ur videos a lot cuz u bring plenty of data.. but this video just had some big mistakes as methodology itself of the showcase and not showing the potential of her best f2p weapon over all misleading ppl to see Aqua at her best over all.

Every Christmas, my dad puts all the bows from the presents on his head, and that beginning reminded me of that.

Now that her rerun is coming up, i really appreciate these videos.

Great Guide and I love how you include the Fading Twilight since a lot of other CC just recommend Favonius. Fading gives you more DMG If you C1 Yelan (I know it's highly not possible but if you somehow got lucky & still have extra Primogems) the Favonius actually gives us too much energy than we need

You didn't test the 3* crit dmg bow, which isn't a bad option either. 50% extra crit dmg at lvl 90 and the passive is decent when using Yelan's breakthrough barb on a target that has weak points. Bit of a niche passive, but hey if your HP and ER is good on Yelan but you lack CDMG it's a nice boost.

Her burst does about 6-7k per tick as it ramps up over the duration. Not the most optimal build but it's still decent.

If you use ER sands with non ER weapon then ER weapons (except the new ivent weapon, it doesn't have enough ER) will be much better than in your calc. If you don't use ER sands with non ER weapons, well, then your Yelan is just useless, because she cannot ult. Sorry for my English.

*yelan lacks if energy to perform her glorious lift armpit (elemental burst) Raiden : Gothcu homie

For sure this video help me so much, that im using Amos since i got her, LOL. Thanks dude.

i love how u do the ratings🗿

Elegy's buffs still overtake whatever personal damage increase yelan gets for most teams, I think elegy is her best bow realistically since she's best suited for off field support

Tldr, *aqua* *simulacra* bis. Otherwise the free bow *fading* *twilight* for f2p(use *emblem* set for bonus damage) Notable mentions are *recurve* *bow* for hp% Amazing guide tysm iwintolose! Yelan is a metabreaking character.

What I want to see is if you take the Aqua Simulacra damage and move stats around on artifacts so that it has ER equivalent to Elegy, how do they compare then? You're going to probably end up swapping in an ER sands over an HP sands to accomplish this. Unless you have Yelan in a team that feeds a huge amount of energy (such as with Raiden), you absolutely will need high ER even with C1. My intuition here is that once you've replaced the ER lost by switching from Elegy to Aqua, you're going to be looking at a damage increase roughly equivalent (in percentage) to what Elegy provides to the active character.

Nice job as always, i come to your channle more often now

If you people want a guide, pick someone else not this guy, all he tested was damage, sure the 3* have hp mainstats its gonna boost the damage but where ER? Most people are low spenders or f2p you cant 1 rotation sh*t everywhere, you need to balance the stats, emblem set is BiS for her which is required ER for more dmg, Fav bow is free and its good for your team too, also Elegy if you have it for team buff

Misleading calcs. Unless you’re in a team that’s specifically designed to generate more energy for Yelan or are simply getting a lot more particles than usual from enemies, her ER needs will be at an absolute minimum of 200%. This makes Favonius Warbow extremely powerful, behind ONLY Aq. Sim. and Elegy. Polar Star, and Harp especially, are weaker options.

@joseRomero-bi6zx

2 жыл бұрын

I agree because from what I also assumed when switching between elegy/fanvious you will need to swap to more ER to keep yelan's Q up and from what many have calculated the damage loss on yelan does is greater than the damage gained to party making favonious the better choice.. so I would say give elegy the 3 slime and the favonious the 4 sime rating

This video is exactly what I was waiting for! Now I'm going to pull for the 5 star weapon :(

Thank you for the fantastic video! At the beginning of the theory crafting, you spoke about the optimal combination of stats in order to maximize damage. Would you mind telling me the optimal combination of stats? Would be appreciated a lot!

The problem with your damage calculations is that they completely ignore the real ER-requirements of a character making any ER-weapon looks significantly worse than they are in reality due to a non-ER weapon in your chart being apparently perfectly fine with just 100/120 ER. A better comparison would be comparing the opportunity value/cost of a weapon, i.e how many artifact sub stats does it take to fulfill her ER requirements while also reaching the damage output to her best option (R5 Aqua) and in that category a Fav Warbow would beat all weapons except Aqua, Polar Star and maybe R5 Skyward Harp simply because it provides the most amount of raw artifact value being a 41 base atk weapon with a useful substat while simultaneously having a passive that lowers her personal ER-requirements even further thanks to the extra particle generation.

Thats why i only take iwintolose showcases with a grain of salt since he is always been about the dmg and not real combat applications and abyss rotations. Having a fav warbow on her is the best bow aside from aqua since higher refines means faster energy funneling on your team and faster burst uptime not to mention easy to build artifacts around.

Thank you for your nerdy maths and spreadsheets. I’m moving my Yelan to my r5 mouns moon immediately. I meant to try it out, and now I know it gets more dmg than the stringless

It's really cool how many choices she has. I will first focus on her artifacts and then choose the weapon accordingly. So far I've been lucky with HP stats but not ER, so I guess I'll have to put Favonius on her.

good job bro this video has to become legendary. i didnt know e lan's damage doesnt stack from her ATK TY

11:17 I initially thought what slingshot's passive meant was "Increases ALL damage by 60%", I was so excited, but turns out it meant "Increases the normal or charged attack damage by 60%" lol.

Big THANKS to you IWTLG. Your vids are always great and the slimes also like to get some attention :) I´ll give her Fav bow too coz of the ER and it's passive. But i'm tryin to get the Aqua Simulacra and i might give it to my Ganyu cause of the massive Crit DMG. Curious to see how she will perform with it.

Thanks for sharing. Can I know your opinion of End of the Line bow on YeLan? Thanks.

Very informative video for Yelan weapons. Though I have her sign. I'm still interested on the other weapons performance

Fantastic stuff

Thank you for this

Hey quick question: With the new Fading Twilight bow, Is there some kind of visual cue or effect that lets you know which phase you are in? It would be nice to know so you can time the use of your E to deal max damage. (I don't have the bow yet so I can't test it. That's why I'm asking)

Assuming I’ve got the signature weapon, the build would be: HP%, Hydro%, CR and CD, HP substats 2pc Tenacity 2pc HOD With battery and without, would look to find ER sub? Or is HP%, Hydro, HP% and CR, ER substats much better?
