Yi Xuan

Yi Xuan's signature. Massive base ATK, HP%, and passive CRIT Rate, plus an EX Special buff that boosts both Ether DMG and Ether Sheer DMG on EX Specials and Ultimates — perfectly complements her kit.

Clear runner-up with a large gap behind it. A single EX Special: Ink Manifestation combo maxes stacks. HP% mainstat, solid DMG Bonus, and CRIT Rate that relieves substat pressure.

Battle pass option. Sheer Force buff from Chain Attacks and Ultimates is especially strong on Yi Xuan since she scales with HP and deals damage primarily during Stun. Barely outperforms Puzzle Sphere and only recommended on her due to its HP secondary stat.

Excellent craftable option. CRIT DMG increase on EX Specials plus bonus EX Special DMG against sub-50% HP enemies. Performance drops in Deadly Assault due to the HP condition, but perfectly viable for all Rupture content.

Strong mainstat but none of the unique effects apply to Yi Xuan. Ice Sheer DMG is wasted, and she almost never drops below 50% HP thanks to her Ultimate's HP redistribution — locking out the second buff. Functional as a stat stick but outclassed by Puzzle Sphere.

Only the HP% mainstat is useful — Yi Xuan heals with her Ultimate rather than losing HP, so the CRIT Rate trigger is nearly unreachable. Fire DMG Bonus is entirely wasted. Puzzle Sphere performs better; only use this if nothing else is available.
