[@saintontas]

As mentioned in this video, this is only the first in a new series dedicated to many of our underused characters! Which Resonator do you want a guide on next?

[@Crispymantis123]

Danjin😢

[@dorianpiastowski89]

Danjin or Chixia would be nice to see next on this series

[@dwnation1551]

Danjin

[@midwestairway]

Great idea, a lot of people would want to see the pros of underutilized characters, so maybe if they want to build them they get an idea how useful they can be and where they can use them.

[@gl1tch3r_17]

Exactlyy that’s what I’ve been sayingg bro

[@devinsimon7721]

She reminds me of Tenchi Muyo.

[@DAD-qt8ng]

"As long as it clears" This needs to be reminded more often, this is the only thing that matterd in terms of meta

[@ryankriller1931]

I’d think the phrase needs to be more specific, cuz if you have other better options that both fit the “as long as it clears” criteria, you’d want the one that would clear faster if you care about time and resource efficiency.

[@vincetan8449]

while i agree with the "as long as it clears" statement, thats not the only thing that matters in meta. meta means most effective tactic available, if something else is signficantly more effective (e.g. faster clear time, more comfortable, more consistent, etc) then thats the meta

[@SageRuffin]

After an S1 Shorekeeper, S2 Verina, _S4_ Encore, S9 Taoqi, and, like... S13 Chixia, I finally have S6 Yangyang! And finally... SHE IS THE STORM THAT IS APPROOOOOACHIIIIING etc etc.

[@Lorkid06]

its refreshing to see newest guide of 4 star char, please keep it up

[@dwnation1551]

New Saintontas series I’m here for it

[@EddieBlake215]

You should do Taoqi next! Sanhua and Danjin are already used by a lot of people, Sanhua because she has crazy support value for any BA DPS, and at higher dupes (S6) she also buffs the whole team Attack%. Danjin is the current best Havok DPS and her "Berzerk" mechanic is something that a lot of players like and enjoy playing around. Mortefi is similar to Sanhua, but currently, I think only Jiyan and Jianxin can properly utilize his kit, and maybe Jinshi as well, Aalto is just a worse Mortefi, especially at higher dupes where Aalto gets better DPS while Mortefi gets better as a support. Baizhi is a sustain for people that didn't get lucky or "unlucky" to grab a Verina or/and Shorekeeper, and nothing much to be said there. Chixia is a monster, especially at higher dupes, AND has quite some support value at S6 for BA-focused characters, I remember seeing videos of S6 Chixia soloing Hologram V at level 60 LMAO! Yuanwu and Taoqi are the only ones that I didn't spend a lot of time watching videos/TC about, and out of those two, I'd love to see a video on Taoqi because I have her at S6.

[@baeber]

Nice I leveled up my Chixia still got work I have to do on her, she's basically a project I worked on because I think she's cute I like her cheerful personality. Hopefully Chixia gets a nice outfit for a skin someday I would appreciate that, I'll build up Yangyang too I was thinking about it for a while

[@WadeWontson]

​@baeber just curious, have you tried her in ToA and if yes, how did she do?

[@EddieBlake215]

@@pasanoidkekw I'm too cozy to figure things out myself! Jokes aside, I know Taoqi has some good things going for her and I'm not referring just to those two that everyone can easily notice, she can be used with the healer set quite easily and that pretty much adds another sustain to your team for the Turtle Echo, her Outro give quite a bit of Skill dmg increase which means that characters like Danjin and Changli get quite a boost. She also makes your team quite durable so making a mistake here and there and getting hit isn't as punishing. But that's just my "took a look at her kit" view, I would wish to see a video on Taoqi similar to this Yangyang one because it helped me better understand some of the synergies that Yangyang has with some characters and now she's on the list of characters that I want to build.

[@blacklight1429]

MC and the original trio(yangyang, chixia and Baizhi) are my main to this day!! And still beat the games' content!! Except the overdrive and only 20 the TOA. But all in all... They still pack a punch... MC, Yangyang and chixia team!!

[@saintontas]

Spectro Rover for the healing? Or are you just raw-dogging it with no sustain 🤣

[@blacklight1429]

@@saintontas Nah... No healing... Just PURE DMG. Havoc Rover, Yangyang and Chixia... All build for DMG. And in TOA I just Burst through the gate with them and go UNNGA BUNNGA!! 😂😂 But yes I sometime use Spectro for healing if I can't clear TOA. Me when enemy attacks... Just dodge bro... Buahhahhaha

@blacklight1429 :O is that the end game content similar to the abyss stuff in genshin?

[@illuminahara]

Yangyang is actually my favorite character. As someone who grew up with 90s anime, she has a timeless appeal and you can tell how much care and and consideration was put into not just her design but also her personality. And I feel like there is a reason why it's her and not Rover on the game icon. I'm sure that will be revealed in time.

[@pfortunato78]

Im with you on her design and kit but, personality? Yangyang is the most vapid and plastic character in the game. Its why I took so long to finally build her even though she is fun to play. She has no personality other than a vacuous fangirl.

[@illuminahara]

@@pfortunato78 matter of opinion I suppose

[@haruusami1831]

@@pfortunato78 vacuous fangirl? lol we probably have different view how we see those, and definitely never watched anime like Oh my goddesss etc. Yangyang is literally the most cliche char. a yamamoto nadeshiko type char. that's her personality, the fact you can only see is her showing "love" rather than "interest" whenever she's with Rover i felt like you're just jealous lol. Many char. in game are just interested of Rover not because of Love, but because he is mysterious they want to learn who he is, only Changli,Shorekeeper are probably showing the love part cause they know who he is, while Camellya we don't know if its Love or distorted feelings.

[@Overlyopinionated-wl8jq]

@@pfortunato78she’s vapid? Lmao.. Like, is there a cutscene in which she talks about the bachelor ad nauseam or fails at arithmetic? I think you’re vapid, because you’re not intelligent enough to see that you’re being biased, prejudiced with stereotypes, merely bc you don’t like the voice acting. And voice acting is a subjective thing. I like the voice acting for yangyang. Some people ARE calm and relaxed and lowkey. Keep calling people dumb. Maybe you’ll convince yourself you’re smart :)

[@osaiosai5]

Yea… just like in Star Rail… so relevant

[@hemera5518]

Thank you for this! I'm always confused in how to approach her leveling method so this really helps because she's my day one character that I love

[@midwestairway]

You should do more characters overview like these, especially the 4 stars, since most people can't see their strong aspects. She is a Great moonlit holder.

[@Faust227]

Rover: So you are Yangyang? Yangyang: A name so nice you say it twice.

[@dorianpiastowski89]

I love this series already, big W like always (Aditional W for our gall Yangyang)

[@jethbodi4648]

Pumping wuwa content! Saintontas is carrying the Wuwa community here in yt. 💪

[@Sarielsenpai]

I've been watching your guides for some time now and I don't know if you'll be able to read this, but posting about your reaction or gameplay walkthroughs on the actual story line is something that'd be nice to see from you! Always nice to see what other people think of the story! Thanks!

[@MarionFR]

I've just started playing Yangyang in end-game content and I'm amazed how good she is! I played mostly with Jinhsi, I can confirm, it's VERY good. Yangyang at s0 is just ok-ish, but at s6 she is really good, fast, grouping, additional DPS, buffing and battery. And... so stylish and fun! I enjoy a lot! 🥰

[@aryehvongot5501]

The problem I have with this game is that too many characters are worth building and I only have so many waveplates to spend building them.

[@gsksbdb9988]

Yangyang has helped me clear the tower quite easily. I really like her playstyle and I pair her up with Havoc Rover together with Shorekeeper. Yangyang's outro is so good that she can help both Shorekeeper and Rover have their liberations up and ready when I need it. Havoc Rover can also dish out multiple liberations in a row with enough energy regen and with her help.

[@lumitou]

Same, I have s6 too she buffs my team too and helped my Xiangli spam utl even with less energy regen

[@DazBiB]

It's true that Yangyang is underused. I thought that it's not worth the resources to build Yangyang. Cuz, it's very first 4 stars, like, 'it's must be not that good, I better look for other character." Until I see showcase, using her as untility dps. dealing shit ton of damage while recharging main dps ult. Then, I know it's not always about 5 stars, it's about the synergy for the whole team. And being 4 stars, is a buff that I can get her c6 easily. Edit: And Everyone should know that 'Traction' ability is one important utility. the pull towards specific direction made every job easy for the main dps. as long as I know it only in 4 char: Jiyan, Yangyang, Jianxin, and Shorekeeper (idk about shorekeeper, tho) So, I feel bad for her, considering she is the very first waifu that came to MC. And accompany the MC for almost every act in the chapter.

[@peterrj1973]

feather girl for the win my guy

[@Dee-ix8nt]

i use her on lingyang team to charge his liberation faster Yangyang to lingyang to sanhua to lingyang her outro still charges even if you leave the unit so its really useful alternative when we really only have 3-4 supports in the game (youhu is a support) specially when your team has zero downtime due to not having a support i hope in the future we get a gamemode that needs more than just 4 teams cuz im having a blast building them all and finding out mechanics and synergies of each one regardless of how tiring it sounds lmao

[@TangDynasty101]

Can't wait for the Taoqi episode!

[@jocelreloncillo8093]

nice vid. cant wait for more of this series

[@Crispymantis123]

Let’s gooooo new video series🎉🎉🎉🎉

[@kenchen704]

After benching Yangyang for ages, I finally found her a team with Changli. The quick swap is very fun and the energy helps make Changli burst even harder with a very fast forte + liberation + forte

[@7Sins7Dreams7]

Great video^^ I'm amazed at your ability to make videos basically every day despite there not being much content atm. I've mained Sanhua as a main dps since I got her and I have cleared everything in the game wirh her as a main dps - Overdrive, Hazard towers, Hologram 6 on every boss and while most people know Sanhua and Mortefi are good, other 4* characters are severely underrated. I'm currently building Aalto as a main DPS, he's extremely fun and I think he'd be an amazing topic for your next video^^

[@amrradwan1055]

Love your content 👏

[@binarexa5289]

I think the best combination with Yangyang as sub DPS is Chixia, while Yangyang can provide ER to others it will make Chixia's forte always full especially when Chixia uses liberation which can fill her forte after liberation.

[@samplebample1194]

Ever since I got Shorekeeper i've been trying to invest in her even though I barely played her before. I kinda love the "Me, my wife and my girlfriend" comp. Rover as main DPS of course.

[@carlosalvarezruiz9351]

Yangyang is literally the icon of Wuthering Waves. Is a real shame that she has no dedicated main DPS to support to. But I'll build her in the future, when I have her R6 and another Emerald of Genesis for her

[@thealecexperience1087]

9:19 Mortefi with Dps Monk girl video potential ;) She can use his marcato during forte

[@aaronmorgan5860]

I recently built up Yangyang because I had recently acquired her resonance chain 6 and needed a wind sub dps to challenge the new content in Tower of Adversity. Her rotation is so fast that she is comparable to Sanhua rotation.

[@FaithJ1127]

I just finished building her for my Xiangli Yao cuz I got her S6 from pulling SK xD

[@KAZ-CEL]

I didnt even think twice investing on her, she’s really good tbh might not be good for “damage per screen” but as a whole could provide good synergy for the whole team

[@RinSae]

I see, i can build her soonish after knowing this video.

[@Ovantle]

Yangyang was always very fun to play but she's one of those characters who needs their sequences to shine. She's definitely a lot better than what most people say, especially now with Showkeeper and her ult stacking. Also, being on the same banner, it's like devs are trying to convince people to give her another chance since everyone who pulled Shorekeeper is bound to get some copies of Yangyang.

[@imixupwords5340]

YapYap strikes again!! ❤

[@BarakethGaming]

Bro you are a true hero, I’ve been looking for a reason to build her and now she can solve my Jinshi issues, ty 👍

[@ryanberinguel510]

I'm using her with my Shorekeeper and Xiangli Yao team. Bro, it's like a dream.

[@o_o-037]

I used Yangyang since launch and only now replaced her with Shorekeeper. She carried me through the worst times and is a very good starting character the game gives you for free. Not to mention all the failed pulls for gold characters resulted me in maxing her out her sequence nodes. Yes. I have Yangyang at S6 She's reliable if you know how to play her.

[@nlsndr]

Great video as always

[@rinderfon]

Thanks for the guide. Can you add a skill rotation / combo guide as well? Ex: intro > liberation > skill > heavy attack > bla bla bla so that we could also know how to use her instead of saying things like do skills during her resonance liberation while doing basic attack then outro without even showing any how to do her combos

[@nobletenshi7659]

I used Yangyang for a good while, while I was leveing up my account. Up tp about level 60, but then I started focusing on Sunhau instaed. Ran her with Commando of Conviction. Maybe one day I will push her to 80 or 90 and use her more often again. I had her on Aero set for taht early game time. I really like her too. I dont know why she gets so much shet.. especially when people can use a skip button. I like her yapping. Shes a kind soul. And shes totally in love with Rover but she doesnt realize it, after seeing Youhous teasing. Its super cute.

[@foodflare9870]

I use her in a team with Encore and she slots in her stuff so well with Encore's longer moves. I know I should upgrade her weapon, but the Originite: Type II has suited me well so far.

[@baeber]

I listen to jp Yangyang so I really do like her. I have had plans of building her up but currently I have been working on Chixia. least to say I'll have a built Yangyang in the future just not anytime soon

[@Pihnes]

Alright, alright. I'm gonna build her. At S6 she deserves it.

[@TheLastAirbender3468]

Built her for waifu reasons , got impressed with her performance , she deals solid dmg, and her atk buff and energy are nice

i was not able to get my final star in overdrive zone until i played the xiangli yao yangyang shore keeper team. And have been pestering my friend for a week to build her since then xD

[@2Psico2]

She was my first s6 4 star, she has been part of my main crew since day 1, I love her design, and her classic anime style, her JP voice, and all her animation are soooo goood!!, specially her charged attack, followed by her basic attacks when she shifts her sword. I am so hoping for a cute AF skin for her, the only thing I don't like that much is how her hair splits up and looks very stiff, I am hoping a future skin fixes that. I lover her as much as my main 5 stars, jhinsi, changli, Shorekeeper.

[@QuranAyas]

I have her r6 on 2 accounts ~ i needed this video

[@TheJNGKvault]

How come when I planned to build her because I don't have a proper Aero unit (I am not so used to Jianxin), this video appears on top of my KZbin feed lol. I am planning to bring up her damage game but let's see.

I just built yangyang (not optimized) and cleared the 3 stage of third tower, with the help of xly I cleared the 4th stage. Yea she is so good sub dps and crowd control

[@judellbernardo2812]

You just want to proc her intro with 3 melodies then cast Resonance Skill/Liberation, echo then swap out (for efficientcy) or Intro with 3 melodies echo, reso skill/liberstion (for damage)

Love the new series.

[@CJkyle]

Can't wait for chixia's showcase. 😎

[@ardee9337]

I hope you do Aalto next, he is probably the least used pistol user as Chixia and Mortefi are much more used, Chixia as main dps and Mortefi for Jiyan comps. So if you can test him out that would be great

[@zxenen]

[@LycorisLilyP]

Idk how they did it but she somehow always manages to look 2D, and it's something I think it's very satisfying. No other characters in the game do this either, and it's a bit odd

I was thinking of building her yesterday, and now here's this video

[@Dragvon]

I love my yapyap, usually doing solo runs of the first 3 floors with her and doing weird comps like Chang/Yinlin/YangYang with healer set. I think origin+healer set couldve been added to this as a niche build :V

[@ancientblossom]

Isn’t yangyang also a battery for the team?

[@neoinfinity5204]

I haven’t finished her yet cause I was debating on either energy set or wind set for her team role but then got shore keeper and her weapon which also got me max copies Yang so I decided to main her in future with Taoqi currently having the best sup stats set

[@kevincorso9757]

as a card-carrying member of the original yang gang (andrew yang ofc), i'll make sure to build her... when the resource issue lets me lol

[@sahiljamariya9259]

My yangyang solos, the first 3 with a cost of 6 energy, and the first 2 of the other side with a cost of 3 energy, I clear the 3rd one on the other side with rover solo, and voila, your 2 main teams and take on the rest of the towers with 9 energy, (I use dragon nuker, and mr. ironarm for my main 2 teams)

[@TDSpyder]

Just a thought, if DMG% is so prevalent in her dupes, would it make sense to run 4-4-3-1-1? Essentially you're trading 12% attack for a crit piece

Love the content, can't wait for Aalto, unfortunately Yanyan is not really that useful for my account in particular... Not sure if it is intended but the avatar makes me very uncomfortable, it's animations just make me wanna look elsewhere xD

[@thegamingbumpkin]

Hey Saint, just wanted to say, thanks for these videos, they are really interesting and useful, whether I will build most of these characters I am not sure, but it is really helpful to know what Echo Sets work best, as I just guess! But now I will go and completely change Yangyang's set from Sierra Gale to Moonlit, I just figured that as she is Aero, then that would work best, but no, that's not always the case. I look forward to future episodes! Greetings from the UK.
