Yoimiya Best Build & Stat Priority

Role: DPS

Yoimiya is a 5-star Pyro Bow character from Inazuma who excels in the DPS role. Ascending Yoimiya grants bonus CRIT Rate, complementing a stat priority of CRIT DMG, CRIT Rate. ATK%, Elemental Mastery. For the Normal Attack Main DPS setup, equip Shimenawa's Reminiscence (Momiji-Dyed Court) with ATK% Sands, Pyro DMG Bonus Goblet, and CRIT Rate or CRIT DMG Circlet. Thundering Pulse (CRIT DMG) is the top recommended weapon, while Prototype Crescent serves as a reliable accessible alternative.

This is currently the best Main DPS build for Yoimiya. This is at a cost of not being able to use her Elemental Burst reliably off cooldown but is less of an issue for Sub-DPS characters that don't need the ATK% buff from Yoimiya's burst (like Yelan). Though the Echoes set could fix the issue, its rng nature makes it too unreliable.
