Yanfei — Build, Teams & Rating Genshin 6.7

Is Yanfei worth building?

Yanfei is a clean, comfortable 4-star Pyro DPS, especially good for newer players who want a safe ranged carry. Her power isn't top-tier and leans heavily on chaining charged attacks, but paired into a Vaporize team with Xingqiu her damage is very consistent. What she needs most is a Hydro unit to trigger Vaporize and Bennett for the ATK buff. For the weapon, the craftable 4-star Mappa Mare is a solid free pick; farm Crimson Witch of Flames and prioritize CRIT, then a Pyro DMG goblet.

Yanfei's talents

Seal of Approval

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
Consumes Stamina and all Scarlet Seals before dealing AoE Pyro DMG to opponents after a short casting time.
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.

Signed Edict

Summons blistering flames that deal AoE Pyro DMG.
Opponents hit by the flames will grant Yanfei the maximum number of Scarlet Seals.

Apart from their legal uses, Yanfei's seals also come with her customized additional terms and conditions. Well, it's not as if the Ministry of Civil Affairs can change the laws of nature.

Done Deal

Triggers a spray of intense flames that rush at nearby opponents, dealing AoE Pyro DMG, granting Yanfei the maximum number of Scarlet Seals, and applying Brilliance to her.

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.

"Here are the full terms for this matter of life and death — by which I mean my life and your death!"

Proviso

When Yanfei consumes Scarlet Seals by using a Charged Attack, each Scarlet Seal will increase Yanfei's Pyro DMG Bonus by 5%. This effect lasts for 6s. When a Charged Attack is used again during the effect's duration, it will dispel the previous effect.

Blazing Eye

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.

Encyclopedic Expertise

Displays the location of nearby resources unique to Liyue on the mini-map.

Combat Rotation

Unleash Burst "Done Deal" (Q, costs 80 Energy) to instantly gain up to 3 Scarlet Seals and trigger Brilliance for 15s.
If Q is on cooldown, use Elemental Skill "Signed Edict" (E, 9s CD) to refill 3 Scarlet Seals.
Fire a Charged Attack as soon as you hold 3 Scarlet Seals to consume them all, dealing maximum AoE Pyro DMG and triggering Proviso (+5% Pyro DMG per Seal consumed, lasting 6s).
During the 15s Brilliance window, a new Scarlet Seal is granted roughly every 1s — keep firing Charged Attacks the moment Seals cap out.
Weave in Normal Attacks between Charged Attacks when Seals aren't full, building Seals while reducing the next Charged Attack's Stamina cost.
On a crit Charged Attack, Blazing Eye (A4 passive) automatically adds extra AoE Pyro DMG equal to 80% ATK.
Keep looping Charged Attacks until Seals or Brilliance run out, then return to E to refill Seals.
Prioritize enough Energy Recharge to loop Burst (20s CD, 80 Energy) as often as possible, reopening the Brilliance window sooner.
