Yvonne Overview

Yvonne is a Cryo DPS Operator that consumes Cryo Infliction with her Battle Skill to trigger Solidification and generate Energy. Her kit uses Cryo Infliction stacks to scale Battle Skill damage and charge her Ultimate. She performs best when enemies are consistently affected by Cryo Infliction, allowing her to reliably trigger Solidification and fully execute her chanelling Ultimate.

Yvonne Skill Priority

Skill	Priority	Reason
Basic Attack	4th	Mainly serves as the delivery method for damage during her Ultimate. Outside of that window, its scaling impact is limited, making it the lowest priority upgrade.
Battle Skill	2nd	Consumes Cryo Infliction to trigger Solidification and generates a large amount of Ultimate Energy based on stacks consumed. Essential for enabling her Ultimate.
Combo Skill	2nd(Tie)	Same reason as battle skill. Gives additional damage plus Ultimate Energy.
Ultimate	1st	Yvonne’s main damage source. Enhances her Basic Attacks, provides stacking CRIT buffs, and ends with a powerful Final Strike that gains additional damage when consuming Solidification.

Yvonne Best Weapons and Essence Priority

Yvonne is a Cryo DPS Operator who scales primarily with Intellect, with Agility as a secondary stat to support her crit-focused playstyle. Weapons that increase Intellect, CRIT Rate, or CRIT DMG are the most effective for her kit, as they directly enhance her Ultimate’s stacked damage window. Her signature weapon, Artzy Tyrannical, is her best-in-slot option, offering the strongest synergy with her crit scaling and burst-focused Ultimate. While other Intellect-based weapons can function as alternatives, her signature weapon is recommended to fully maximize her damage potential.

Signature Weapon	Artzy Tyrannical (6★)	Base ATK - 505 Stat 1 - Intellect +156 Stat 2 - Crit Rate +19.5% Fracture: Artzy Exaggeration - Cryo DMG Dealt +44.8%. After the wielder scores a critical hit with a battle skill or combo skill, the wielder gains Cryo DMG Dealt +39.2% for 30.00s. Max stacks for effects of the same name: 3.00. Duration of each stack is counted separately. Effect only triggers once every 0.1s.

If this effect is triggered by the wielder, double the increase gained. Effects of the same name cannot stack
2nd	Wedge (6★)	Base ATK - 500 Stat 1 - Main Attribute +132 Stat 2 - Critical Rate +19.5% Infliction: Wedge of Civilization - Arts DMG Dealt +33.6%.

When the wielder's battle skill applies an Arts Reaction, the wielder gains Arts DMG Dealt +44.8% for 15.00s. The two effects apply separately and do not stack with themselves.

Yvonne Best Potentials

P1 - Flash Freezer

Rating - ★★★ (Good)
Potential Effect - Combo skill Flashfreezer υ37 improved: Effect radius +20%; releases energy 2 more times; and gains an additional 15 Ultimate Energy after dealing DMG.
Reason - Improves Energy generation. Its value depends heavily on whether the extra Energy can be effectively utilized.

P2 - Flawless Creation

Rating - ★★★★ (Very Good)
Potential Effect - Intellect +20, Critical Rate +7%.
Reason - A strong damage boost.

P3 - Tink-a-Power

Rating - ★★★★ (Very Good)
Potential Effect - Talent Freezing Point improved: Against enemies with Cryo Infliction, Critical DMG Dealt +10%; this effect is also doubled against enemies with Solidification.
Reason - Provides a solid DPS increase, especially in Cryo Infliction–focused teams where her talent has higher uptime. Strong, but not transformational.

P4 - Rebellious Mood

Rating - ★★★ (Good)
Potential Effect - Battle skill Brr-Brr-Bomb β improved: If the first explosion hits only one enemy, return 10 SP.
Reason - Its impact varies depending on fight pacing.

P5 - Expert Mechcrafter

Rating - ★★★★★ (Best)
Potential Effect - Ultimate Cryoblasting Pistolier improved: During the ultimate, ATK +10% and Critical DMG Dealt +30%.
Reason - Her strongest overall damage potential, offering the highest DPS increase among her dupes. While it doesn’t change her playstyle, it meaningfully raises her damage ceiling.
