Biography of Yanqing in Honkai: Star Rail
Yanqing in Honkai: StarRail - A young but extremely gifted guy who demonstrates himself as the best swordsman of Lofu Xianzhou. As a student of the general Jing Yuan, does not let up in constant training: honing personal skills is one of his main goals. The art of swordsmanship won Yanqing's heart as a child, and since then it has only warmed inside, igniting a passion for battles and endless lessons under the auspices of a dear mentor.

However, this option is not necessary if you do not have problems with the balance of important attacking characteristics. |
dead dream ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ HP 48-1058 ATK 26-582 DEF 21-463 | Increases crit. owner's damage 30-50%. When the owner's basic attack or skill does not inflict a crit. damage, crit. chance increases by 36-60% for 1 turn.

Fencing ⭐⭐⭐⭐ HP 43-952 ATK 21-476 DEF 15-330 | When the owner attacks the same enemy multiple times, the damage dealt increases by 8-16%stacking up to 5 times. This effect is removed if the owner changes their target. | A great epic option that can give serious competition to the legendary Light Cones. During the passage, Yanqing, concentrated on a single target, will be able to receive a damage increase of 40-80%.

His chance of performing a bonus attack directly depends on his status «Empathic connection», which can be canceled when receiving damage, as well as from the level of the talent, which specifies a fixed 50-65% chance of a bonus hit occurring.

This effect can only trigger once per attack. | A cone of light that gives a fixed increase to crit. chance, thereby providing the opportunity to focus on pumping up other characteristics in the relics. The effect of removing various buffs from enemies is also useful, but may not work in the area of some activities. For example, in the Hall of Oblivion. |
Arrow released ⭐⭐⭐ HP 33-740 ATK 16-370 DEF 12-264 | After the owner defeats the enemy, increases attack power by 24-48% for 3 moves. | A rare alternative to the Galaxy Cruise. For the cone to work, it is also recommended to finish off small monsters as Yanqing every 3 turns.

Himeko | Erudition | Fiery | An alternative to Jing Yuan that acts as an improved variation of Hook. Has high DPS from superpower. Imposes the "Burning" status on opponents, thereby supporting the squad with additional passive damage. |
Hertha | Erudition | Ice | Free character that can be obtained for completing 1 world Simulated Universe (subsequently obtained eidolons). A good damage dealer that can deal with most of the initial content. However, at the later stages of the development of the world, it needs serious investments. |

qingque | Erudition | Quantum | Free character that can be obtained for completing oblivion hall. The effectiveness is similar to Gert, however, the main advantage in comparison is that he is one of the few heroes for F2P accounts that can break through the quantum vulnerability. |
Armor | Harmony | Wind | One of the best representatives of his Path: imposes amazing buffs on both the increase in speed, and the increase in damage dealt, and the increase in attack power. Plays from crit. damage, so it can seem "problematic" in the build. |

Hanja | Harmony | Physical | Grants decent bonuses to speed and attack power with the help of a superpower. This skill imposes the Nosha status on the enemy, increasing the damage dealt and restoring action points for every two hits. Among the disadvantages, it should be noted that it does not actually contribute damage, enhancements apply to one hero and weakenings apply to one target. |
Welt | Nihility | Imaginary | A wonderful character of the Path of Nothingness, whose main skills are aimed at imposing negative statuses on enemies: slows down, delays actions, fetters with the “Conclusion” effect. |
Silver Wolf | Nihility | Quantum | It has a unique skill mechanic that allows you to create a weakness in the enemy to the elements of a random team member. It also has standard debuffs in its arsenal: lowering speed, defense and attack. |

Top Teams
Based on the characters discussed above, we will make up the most effective units for Yanqing.
Character 1 | Character 2 | Character 3 | Character 4 | Features |
---|---|---|---|---|
Yanqing | Yukong | sang | Aventurine | Yanqing is the main damage dealer, supported by Pela. The girl cuts off the defense of enemies, and at E4 lowers the ice resistance of a target attacked by the basic attack “Frost Shot”. Aventurine keeps Yanqing’s “Empathic Link” active, preventing him from taking damage. Yukun increases crits. |
Yanqing | tingyun | Armor Asta | Cheetah | One of the most convenient units. Yanqing is the main DPS character around whom the pack is built. Tingyun applies positive effects to increase attack power, and with his superpower increases damage done and gives 50 units. energy. Armor that can be replaced with Asta increases the number of turns per cycle. Cheetah ensures comfortable passage of any activity with durable shields. |
Yanqing | Clara | sangWelt | March 7Lynx | Clara is the main target of enemies, who plays against Svarog’s counterattacks. Yanqing, while the opponents are distracted by the assistant girl, deals the main damage. Pela or Welt are engaged in spreading negative effects. In conjunction with Clara, March 7 or Lynx is placed, which support the life of the tramp girl and increase her chances of diverting the attention of enemies to herself. |
Yanqing | AstaHanja | Cheetah | Hoho | A team with full protection from Cheetah, who imposes shields on the entire team, as well as stable healing from Hoho, who heals with skill and talent. Asta/Hanya increases the speed and attack power of allies. Yanqing focuses on dealing damage to a single target. |
Yanqing | Yukong | Fire. heroSilver WolfWelt | Locha | Yukun will take Asta's place and will further increase her crit. Yanqin's damage and crit chance. Locha is placed as the healer, since Yukun will provide him with a bonus of imaginary damage (due to the second trace). The Pathfinder acts as a shield fighter and tank. However, with sufficient healing, a character with defensive functions can be replaced with a debuffer. |
Yanqing | Seele Dan Heng | Hanja Sparkle | Gallagher | An expensive squad assembled from two of the most powerful characters of the Path of the Hunt - Yanqing and Zele (can be replaced by Dan Heng). The team may not have enough skill points, so Hanya/Sparkle is set up as a buffer, which distributes various positive statuses to the main DPS heroes and passively restores the resource. Gallagher heals, but rarely uses the skill and relies heavily on the basic attack in battle. |
Yanqing | Jing Yuan | ruan mei sang | Cheetah | A team for those who want to play as both a general and his skilled subordinate - each of them is focused on dealing damage. Ruan Mei, acting as a buffer, strengthens the team. If Pela is installed, then it is focused on lowering the defense of enemies. The Cheetah protects the group from incoming damage, and also attracts the attention of opponents with a pumped-up “Integrity” track. |
Yanqing | Topaz | ruan mei tingyun | Gallagher | The position of the second damage dealer can be taken by Topaz, who is not only an independent DPS, but can work with bonus attacks of Empathic Link. The buffer in the team gives preference to one of the characters in accordance with the vulnerabilities of the opponents. Chief Detective of the Hound Clan works great with bonus hits from allies, providing consistent healing. |
Yanqing | jingliuMisha | sangLynx | Cheetah | Mono-ice unit with destructive damage to groups of monsters of any size. In such a group, Yanqing often sacrifices “empathic connection” for the sake of Jingliu’s high AoE damage, and therefore the build needs to be revised and the characteristics balanced (maybe replaced by the more universal Misha). Pela lowers the overall defense of enemies and cuts off ice resists at E4. Cheetah prevents you from receiving lethal damage. If you have problems with survivability, you can consider Lynx as a debuffer or shield fighter. |
Examples of more budget units for Yanqing, consisting only of epic characters:
Character 1 | Character 2 | Character 3 | Character 4 | Features |

The Pathfinder distracts the attention of enemies and deals fire damage with its ultimate. |
Yanqing | Hertha Serval qingque | Fire. hero | Gallagher | F2P squad, which is assembled from free heroes. Yanqing is the main DPS hero. Representatives of the Path of Erudition support the fencer with additional damage, concentrating on delivering blows to the area.

How to play Yanqing
Yanqing is a character in the Way of the Hunt whose main goal is to deliver powerful hits against single targets and deal effectively with bosses or elite opponents. Playing as a Master Swordsman can be difficult due to Empathic Link, as Lofu Xianzhou Warrior's primary talent is tied to this effect.
The recommendations below may not make it much easier to understand the mechanics of Yanqing, which is especially important in real life. turn-based battles, where each action can decide the outcome of the battle.
Rotation
Tips for conducting a battle if Yanqing is present in the squad:
- Before the start of the battle, use a technique to increase Yanqing's damage for the next 2 turns. In addition, it is recommended to use the basic techniques of other characters if they also impose certain positive effects.
- Once it's Yanqing's turn, activate the skill to activate Empathic Link. Whenever possible, try to maintain status by prioritizing Aimed Sword Throwing every turn.
- Apply positive effects in a timely manner to the characters of the Path of Harmony, as well as shields to the characters of the Path of Preservation. Try to keep track of the duration of the boosts in order to distribute skill points correctly.
- Use Yanqing's super only when Empathic Link is active to increase your crit chance as well. hits, and crit. damage.

Conclusion on the character
Yanqing is a strong DPS character that deals devastating hits on single targets. The main advantage of the swordsman is that his personal abilities give an increase to such important characteristics as crit. damage and crit chance. hits. This certainly makes it easier to build a hero when it comes to finding good light cones and relics.
However, Yanqing, like any other character on the Path of the Hunt, cannot do without proper support: he needs heroes that can either heal or block incoming damage with a powerful shield. In addition, do not forget about warriors or warriors who can focus the attention of enemies on themselves - alas, if the swordsman is constantly subjected to pressure from enemies, he will lose the buffs that he receives from Empathic Link.
And although playing for him can cause certain difficulties, one cannot fail to note the fact that units with General Lofu Xianzhou's henchman are able to reach good heights. The main thing is to get used to the rotation.

Why is he everywhere in the d dash I don’t understand
because in this pack they write in tolerant language. in fact, Yanchik is garbage and the further into the content you go, the worse he shows himself
I didn’t find it in the guide, but I’ll tell you just in case
The developers in the description did not add Yanqing's passive - the Empathy effect is reset only if Yanqing receives HP damage, so you can do without Pirogg and Clara and take the same Cheetah/March
We expanded the information in “Disadvantages” by adding a note with the characters of the Path of Conservation. With:
Does it make sense to put a star arena on Yanchik? Or a set of planars for critical damage,
The star arena can currently be called one of the most relevant sets for Yanqing.
Sorry, but the guide states that there is no point in gaining his CS above TWENTY percent. It turns out that the effect of planars does not work?
If you plan to play with the Starry Arena, then during the battle you must ensure that Yanqing has the required amount of crit. impact in %. Otherwise, yes, the planar set will not work 100%.
and tell me the detachment of Yang Qin, Himeko, Welt, Fiery Pioneer, Natasha is needed here and preferably instead of whom can she be put?
Yanqing is such a versatile character that out of 27 (If you count fire and physical as separate) 23 play well with him
