BiSQingming BirdcageS1

Her signature and obvious best: huge Base ATK, HP% and CRIT Rate passively, plus a buff on EX Specials and at battle start that raises Ether DMG and further boosts Ether Sheer DMG from EX Specials and Ultimates. A perfect fit for her kit.

BudgetCauldron of ClarityS5

The clear runner-up. Its effect wants an EX Special every 20s, trivial for Yixuan who spams them for Technique Points; one EX Special: Ink Manifestation combo maxes the stacks. HP% mainstat, a hefty DMG Bonus and CRIT Rate that relaxes substat requirements round it out.

BudgetRadiowave JourneyS5

The Battle Pass engine grants a large Sheer Force buff for 12s, stacking up to 3 times on Chain Attacks and Ultimates. Good for an HP-scaling agent who does most of her damage during stun, but it barely edges out Puzzle Sphere and the HP mainstat is what makes it usable on her.

BudgetPuzzle SphereS5

An excellent craftable: a big CRIT DMG boost when EX Specials activate and greatly increased EX Special DMG against targets under 50% HP. That threshold hurts in Deadly Assault, but elsewhere it serves any Rupture DPS well.

AltKraken's CradleS1

A poor fit despite the strong mainstat, because none of its effects apply: the Ice Sheer DMG bonus is useless and Yixuan almost never drops below 50% HP. Even if she did, her Ultimate's HP rebalancing would heal her right back out of the condition.

Strengths

+Best-in-class Rupture DPS — dominant usage rate (94% signature) reflects her consistent top-tier performance
+Yunkui Tales provides CRIT Rate and Sheer DMG bonuses in one set — no competing set comes close
+Scales with HP rather than ATK, providing a natural defensive synergy with HP% disc stats
+Flexible third slot (Ju Fufu, Pan Yinhu, Lucia) allows adapting to different content requirements

Weaknesses

−Signature W-Engine gap is extreme — Cauldron of Clarity sits at ~85% efficiency and everything else falls further
−Rupture specialty has limited support options; almost every top team uses the same core (Dialyn + Lucia)
−Weaker in Deadly Assault where some W-Engine effects (Puzzle Sphere) and CRIT interactions are harder to maintain

Spiritual Path

Upon entering combat, CRIT Rate increases by 10% and immediately gain 120 Technique Points. In Investigation Zone Mode, this effect can only trigger once every 180s. When any squad member lands a hit on an enemy, Yi Xuan automatically summons an extra lightning strike, dealing DMG equal to 50% of her Sheer Force and restoring 5 additional Adrenaline. This can trigger once every 6s.

Ward Off Misfortune

When an Ultimate or EX Special Attack deals DMG, it ignores 15% of the target's Ether RES. Triggering Ultimate: Qingming Skyshade extends all enemies' Stunned state by 3s. In a single Stun state duration, enemies can only have this effect applied once, and it does not stack with similar effects. Additionally, when using Ultimate: Endless Talisman Suppression, gain one stack of the Condensed Ink effect. After Basic Attack: Qingming Eruption or EX Special Attack: Ashen Ink Becomes Shadows, press the Basic Attack button, or after EX Special Attack: Qingming Eruption - Break, press the Special Attack button to consume one stack of Condensed Ink and launch EX Special Attack: Endless Talisman Suppression - Break, dealing DMG up to 1,200% of Sheer Force. Only one stack of Condensed Ink can be held at a time.

Swift Yet Still

After using Ultimate: Qingming Skyshade, gain a stack of the Regulated Breathing effect. While under this effect, you can ignore the Technique Point cost to launch Ultimate: Endless Talisman Suppression once. The Regulated Breathing effect ends after Ultimate: Endless Talisman Suppression is used. This effect can only be gained once every 30s. Only one stack of Regulated Breathing can be held. Additionally, while in the Meditation state, Yi Xuan's Sheer DMG is increased by 20%.
