Xiangli Yao
Free Liberation-scaling Electro DPS with a slow-field for survivability — completely overshadowed by Augusta in the current meta.
Strengths & Weaknesses of Xiangli Yao
- Free Liberation-scaling Electro DPS with a slow-field for survivability
- completely overshadowed by Augusta in the current meta.
- As the main DPS, Xiangli Yao needs a proper signature-tier weapon and matching 4-cost echo to hit full damage — a weak build falls off hard.
- Xiangli Yao also competes for the main-DPS slot with other carries of the same element — not a character you can slot into any team and expect top results.
Quick Verdict
Free Liberation-scaling Electro DPS with a slow-field for survivability — completely overshadowed by Augusta in the current meta.
Consider carefully — Xiangli Yao sits at A-tier, solid but not a top-priority pull unless you love the playstyle.
Not necessary — Xiangli Yao isn't strong enough to justify rerolling; prioritize an SS or S-tier pick instead.
