Notes

Calculations assume Bennett. Yanfei is a Charged Attack damage dealer that utilizes a stack mechanic to increase the damage of her Charged Attacks.

Yanfei typically does as her combo to maximize her damage, especially during her Burst state. With two Hydro characters, this results in consistent Vaporize hits. However, if you only have one Hydro character on your Yanfei team, it may be best to do instead.

Yanfei's A4 being reliant on a crit hit makes her ideal crit ratio skew toward 3:4 and 3:5 instead of the standard 1:2.

Reliquary of Truth: Assumes the weapon passive gives 80 Elemental Mastery.
Tome of the Eternal Flow: Calculated with reliable stacking, such as with Furina. Without reliable stacking, this weapon performs worse than [R5].
Cashflow Supervision: Calculated with reliable stacking, such as with Furina. Without reliable stacking, this weapon performs worse than [R5].
Surf's Up: Calculated with reliable stacking, such as with Furina. Without reliable stacking, this weapon performs worse than [R5].
Starcaller's Watch: Ranks similarly to if Yanfei is [C4+].
Flowing Purity: Calculated with Bond of Life cleared. Loses significant value if run without a consistent healer.

Substats

Energy Recharge: Some teams will prioritize Energy Recharge over Elemental Mastery if it means Yanfei is able to Burst every rotation. Otherwise, it is safe to ignore Energy Recharge.
