Yuzuha (ZZZ) Build

Yuzuha can be most simply understood as the Astra Yao for anomaly teams. As we all know, Astra Yao can support both direct damage teams and anomaly teams, but relatively speaking she’s more suitable for direct damage teams because she provides crit damage buffs which anomaly DPS don’t utilize. Similarly, Yuzuha can also support both direct damage carries and anomaly carries, but comparatively she performs even better than Astra Yao when supporting anomaly DPS. In short, if you like playing anomaly teams, I highly recommend pulling for Yuzuha – her boost for anomaly hyper-carries is extremely significant.

Yuzuha provides the whole team with 1200 attack and 15% damage increase. With her signature weapon, she gives 20% anomaly accumulation rate and 20% anomaly damage and disorder damage. Without her signature weapon, she provides 14.2% anomaly accumulation rate and 14.2% anomaly damage and disorder damage. Additionally, Yuzuha can perform off-field follow-up attacks, and these attacks will automatically match the element of your anomaly main DPS to help trigger anomalies faster. Importantly, these follow-up attacks don’t count towards the final anomaly damage calculation – they only help build anomaly stacks faster to reach the damage trigger point.

In actual combat, when Yuzuha’s enhanced skill or ultimate hits an enemy, she grants the whole team 1200 attack and 15% damage increase for 40 seconds. This buff has complete uptime. The 1200 attack bonus reaches maximum value when Yuzuha’s base attack reaches 3000.

Furthermore, when there are characters of the same faction or anomaly-type characters in the team, during these 40 seconds the whole team’s anomaly accumulation efficiency, anomaly damage, and disorder damage will also increase. This bonus scales with Yuzuha’s anomaly mastery stat, reaching full effect at 200 anomaly mastery.

Not only that, using enhanced skill or ultimate will also apply Sweet Scare status to hit enemies for 40 seconds. This Sweet Scare status will continuously build anomaly values on enemies, and when you switch to your anomaly main DPS, you can perform elemental conversion on Sweet Scare. The Sweet Scare doesn’t count towards final anomaly damage calculation – it only helps trigger anomaly resolution faster. Besides Sweet Scare helping the team trigger anomalies faster, the Sweet Points below her avatar can also help trigger anomalies faster.

So what exactly do these Sweet Points do? When Yuzuha is off-field, she can consume these Sweet Points to perform follow-up attacks, triggering once every 8 seconds. The final hit of these Sweet Point follow-up attacks can also be elementally converted. In short, these Sweet Points help our team trigger elemental anomalies more quickly.

Based on actual testing, Yuzuha’s Sweet Points when off-field are essentially inexhaustible because there are so many ways to replenish them, while they only consume one point every 8 seconds. In practice, I’ve basically never run out.

Finally, both her enhanced skill and ultimate triggering on enemies will activate the next character’s quick assist.

So what’s her actual combat rotation? Simply press the enhanced skill once, quick assist to switch to the main DPS, and she can leave the field. Or when her ultimate is ready, come out to use ultimate and then quick assist to switch to main DPS.
