Utility Passive

When Lan Yan is in the party, your characters will not startle Crystalflies and certain other animals when getting near them.
Check the “Other” sub-category of the “Living Beings / Wildlife” section in the Archive for creatures this skill works on.

 

Four Sealing Divination Charms

Learned at 1st Ascension

When the dash from the Elemental Skill Swallow-Wisp Pinion Dance hits a target, if it interacts with Hydro/Pyro/Cryo/Electro, the Swallow-Wisp Shield will undergo Elemental Conversion, with the converted shield absorbing DMG from the corresponding element with 250% efficiency.
Additionally, if this use of Swallow-Wisp Pinion Dance causes the Swallow-Wisp Shield to undergo Elemental Conversion, the Feathermoon Rings that Lan Yan throws at her foes additionally deal Elemental DMG equal to 50% of the original in the corresponding Elemental Type. This DMG is considered Elemental Skill DMG.

 

Skyfeather Evil-Subduing Charm

Learned at 4th Ascension

The Elemental Skill Swallow-Wisp Pinion Dance and the Elemental Burst Lustrous Moonrise deal increased DMG equal to 309% and 774% of Lan Yan’s Elemental Mastery respectively.

Lan Yan DPS Build

Lan Yan Best Weapon – DPS

Lan Yan Best Weapon Comparison – DPS

The % indicates the performance of the Weapons relative to the 5-Star Weapon with 100%. The simulation condition is as below :

  1. C0 Lan Yan
  2. Team Compostion – Lan Yan/Faruzan/Furina/Xianyun
  3. Xinolen is equipped with Artifact with 24 Crit Rate/Crit DMG sub stats, 6 other useful sub stats (ATK% & ER%).
  4. Calculation is 5 star weapon based on R1 stats, 3-Star/4-Star weapon based on R5 stats.

This weapon grants a slight boost to movement speed and steadily accumulates an elemental damage bonus over time while in combat. The bonus can stack up to a certain limit and remains active as long as the wielder stays in battle.

This weapon passively boosts the wielder’s elemental damage, while Normal Attack hits have a chance to call forth drifting clouds that track down nearby foes and inflict additional damage for a limited duration. This special attack can only be triggered occasionally, ensuring that the wielder gains both a steady damage increase and the occasional surge of extra offensive power.

Using an Elemental Skill while wielding this weapon grants a timed elemental damage bonus and a special Bond of Life tied to the wielder’s max HP. When the bond dissipates, the HP that is lost converts into additional elemental damage for a short duration, providing a layered offensive boost.

This weapon alternates power between Normal Attacks and Elemental abilities. Landing a Normal Attack briefly amplifies Elemental Skill and Burst damage; conversely, hitting foes with an Elemental Skill or Burst temporarily boosts the user’s Normal Attack damage.

Main Stats

Sand – ATK%
Goblet – Anemo DMG
Circlet – Crit Rate or Crit Dmg

Sub Stats

Crit Rate/Crit DMG > ATK% > EM

ER Requirement : In principle, it’s not recommended to focus on stacking Energy Recharge. The crowd-control effect of Ultimate isn’t that strong, so just use it as you see fit.

2 pc Bonus : Normal and Charged Attack DMG +15%
4 pc Bonus : When current HP increases or decreases, CRIT Rate will be increased by 12% for 5s. Max 3 stacks.
