Yanfei stands out as a potent Pyro DPS character in Genshin Impact, offering exciting possibilities for Elemental Reactions due to her Pyro Vision. Pairing her with Hydro, Cryo, or Electro characters can unleash devastating effects like Vaporize, Melt, or Overload. To support her Elemental Burst, Yanfei relies heavily on a character like Bennett.
With Yanfei becoming a popular choice for many players, preparing her ascension materials and talent level-up books is essential for those who wish to make her their main DPS.
Essential Leveling Materials
To maximize Yanfei's potential as a main DPS, players need approximately 1.7 million Mora to ascend her to level 90.
Yanfei's Ascension Requirements
Yanfei, introduced in Version 1.5, requires Juvenile Jade as a boss drop and Noctilucous Jade as a local specialty for her ascension, obtainable in Liyue.
