00:00:00
guys the 5.5 beta started and we got the
00:00:02
first batch of information about the new
00:00:04
characters today I will tell you about
00:00:06
jansan a character lots of people were
00:00:08
waiting for her as she got teas way back
00:00:11
when the game came out and they released
00:00:12
the trailer for all the regions first of
00:00:14
all subverting the expectations of most
00:00:16
yansan is actually a four star and not a
00:00:19
five star one will think she' be a five
00:00:21
star considering how she was initially
00:00:22
teased and also her role in the story as
00:00:25
one of the main naan Heroes but um here
00:00:27
we are however this doesn't necessarily
00:00:29
say anything about the quality of the
00:00:31
character is lately we've gotten a lot
00:00:33
of four stars that can compete with five
00:00:35
stars in terms of power in the case of
00:00:37
yansan the popular opinion is that she
00:00:39
makes no exception as the first good
00:00:41
details about her made people think that
00:00:43
she's similar to Benet of all characters
00:00:46
in terms of power and style because she
00:00:47
can both buff the active character
00:00:49
significantly and also provide healing
00:00:51
all of this comes from her Elemental
00:00:53
burst which creates something called
00:00:54
kinetic marker which will increase the
00:00:56
active character's attack based on
00:00:58
yanan's total attack this is just like
00:01:01
Bennett's burst works but there are a
00:01:02
few key differences first Yan's buff
00:01:05
skills off of her total attack while
00:01:07
Bennett only skills off of his base
00:01:09
attack which doesn't take into account
00:01:11
any of the attack he gets from artifacts
00:01:12
or other Buffs to counterbalance this
00:01:14
Advantage y's attack buff scaling
00:01:17
percentage is smaller and caps at a
00:01:19
fixed amount that is typically lower
00:01:21
than what Benet can provide second y's
00:01:23
Buffs isn't tied to a positional effect
00:01:25
like Bennett's burst is but rather just
00:01:27
follows the active character this is
00:01:29
just a objectively better and there
00:01:31
might be a big quality of life
00:01:33
difference for all of those people that
00:01:34
are frustrated with this big constraint
00:01:37
that comes with Benet on the flip side
00:01:39
yanan's buff isn't without flops either
00:01:41
specifically it's tied to our nighto
00:01:43
points gauge which will continuously
00:01:45
decrease as the buff stays active once
00:01:47
the points amount Falls below a specific
00:01:49
threshold the attack buff will start
00:01:51
decreasing sharply she has ways to
00:01:53
restore points and keep the Buffs up but
00:01:56
before I get to that let's go in order
00:01:58
in terms of how she wants to be played
00:02:00
as I said earlier her burst initiates
00:02:02
the buff but by itself it only gives
00:02:04
yansan 15 nighto points much less than a
00:02:07
maximum 54 but does the job here is an
00:02:10
elemental skill which when used and
00:02:12
followed by a normal attack it will F
00:02:14
the gauge completely beyond that she has
00:02:16
several means to restore points the
00:02:18
first one is quite vague as it restores
00:02:20
points every second based on the
00:02:22
distance traveled by the active
00:02:23
character this is a bit hard to quantify
00:02:26
at the moment and also a bit hard to
00:02:27
consider because some characters are
00:02:29
more mobile than others for example
00:02:31
somebody like cland that Dash has
00:02:33
continuously during combat through her
00:02:35
skill probably synergizes with this
00:02:37
pretty well as a baseline for this
00:02:39
effect though her skill makes her
00:02:40
regenerate one point every second so
00:02:42
that's something at least on top of this
00:02:45
if you have an active character that
00:02:46
consumes nightold points so Nan
00:02:48
character pretty much yansan will
00:02:50
recover four points every 2.8 seconds
00:02:53
through this this additional Synergy she
00:02:55
has with Natan characters makes me
00:02:57
believe that the yansan will struggle a
00:02:58
bit to keep her total points amount
00:03:00
above 42 consistently outside of Natan
00:03:03
teams but it's hard to say at the moment
00:03:05
honestly additionally a conation four
00:03:08
makes it restore four points when a
00:03:10
character in the team uses their burst
00:03:12
up to two times and also adds a mechanic
00:03:14
that makes it restore 50% of any
00:03:16
restored nightold points that exceeds
00:03:19
the maximum amount these points will
00:03:21
then be granted to her on the next Point
00:03:23
restoration trigger this is primarily
00:03:25
useful at the start of a rotation
00:03:27
because after her skill FS her gauge up
00:03:29
completely her burst will restore 15
00:03:32
additional points prior to this
00:03:34
constellation those are wasted points
00:03:36
but with this constellation they become
00:03:38
quite precious and honestly it might be
00:03:40
the Difference Maker in teams that are
00:03:42
notam based besides this the burst will
00:03:45
last for 12 seconds with a cost of 70
00:03:47
energy and a cool down of 18 seconds so
00:03:50
having taken all of this into account I
00:03:52
want to compare it to Benet in terms of
00:03:53
Bing capabilities just to give you the
00:03:55
bigger picture before I get to the
00:03:57
healing part but before I talk about it
00:03:59
let me REM that if you enjoy my channel
00:04:01
but you haven't subed yet please
00:04:02
consider doing so because it really
00:04:03
makes me notice your support since
00:04:05
Bennet is an old four star that most
00:04:07
people already have and yansan is a new
00:04:09
fourar that is just coming out uh doing
00:04:12
a comparison at the same constellation
00:04:14
level doesn't seem totally fair to me
00:04:16
instead I will be comparing a
00:04:17
constellation six Benet to a yans on a
00:04:20
different constellations level so you
00:04:22
can see how she STS up to him depending
00:04:24
on how much you invest in her I could
00:04:26
also do Benet at different
00:04:27
constellations levels but I don't want
00:04:29
the video to to become too convoluted in
00:04:31
this comparison Bennet will be using Ali
00:04:33
flash a highend for start with high base
00:04:36
attack that not a lot of people have but
00:04:38
since it's a good middle ground between
00:04:40
other fourstar weapons and high base
00:04:42
attack five star options I picked this
00:04:44
one but before I start I have to address
00:04:46
the elephant in the room jansan can use
00:04:48
the cinder City set which on top of her
00:04:50
attack buff can make it incredibly
00:04:52
competitive by default even a
00:04:53
constellation zero this set however
00:04:56
isn't always an added value because it
00:04:58
depends on whether or not you have other
00:05:00
characters in the team that want to use
00:05:01
it since it's quite a huge variable in
00:05:03
this context in terms of damage increase
00:05:05
I'm also going to consider different
00:05:07
scenarios based on this foran DPS like
00:05:09
kage is a basine yansan and Benet are
00:05:12
even if yansan is also providing the C
00:05:14
City Buffs for the team but Bennett
00:05:16
gains a bit of an advantage with a
00:05:17
second pyro character to enable pyro
00:05:20
resonance yansan is an interesting
00:05:21
option for kage when it comes to holding
00:05:23
Cinder City because a pyro character
00:05:25
like Muka can't refresh the effects
00:05:27
reliably basically once an oppon his
00:05:30
burning applied on him every further
00:05:32
application of Pyon and dandro
00:05:33
simultaneously will extend the duration
00:05:35
of burning instead of triggering the
00:05:37
reaction a second time this means that
00:05:39
after activating the cinder City effects
00:05:41
a first time it's hard to refresh them a
00:05:44
second time yansan will be buffing kage
00:05:46
to a single Quicken proc and that's much
00:05:48
more reliable anyway yansan matches the
00:05:51
Pyro resonance effects with a
00:05:52
constellation to which makes her provide
00:05:54
the active character a 30% attack bonus
00:05:57
in this scenario yansan already edes
00:05:59
benefit out a bit if she's the only
00:06:01
holder of the cinder City set on the
00:06:02
team and becomes more competitive in
00:06:04
general as a baseline lastly her
00:06:06
constellation six makes her provide the
00:06:08
extra 25% damage bonus to the active
00:06:11
character for 3 seconds when she has a
00:06:13
surplus of night so points through
00:06:15
restoration which should be rather
00:06:16
consistent with a another DPS in this
00:06:18
scenario jansan already competes with
00:06:20
Bennett even without the extra Cinder
00:06:22
City buff and with that on top of it it
00:06:25
becomes a new contest basically for a
00:06:27
another DPS hansan can already be side
00:06:29
grade at constellation zero to B at
00:06:32
constellation 6 if she's holding Cinder
00:06:34
City and she becomes definitely better
00:06:36
at constellation 6 for a DPS that's not
00:06:38
from nadran I'm not totally sure a
00:06:40
constellation zero because uh it's hard
00:06:43
to tell at the moment how consistently
00:06:44
she can keep her gauge above 42 points
00:06:47
in that situation and I'm also not sure
00:06:49
about the consistency of the
00:06:50
constellation six since it's based on
00:06:52
point Surplus so it's hard to tell so
00:06:55
just to be safe I'm only going to
00:06:56
consider constellation four for this
00:06:58
scenario with is iion she can keep her
00:07:00
gauge above 42 for a non pyro Ally like
00:07:04
Chlor and already gets a lot of attack
00:07:06
from weapon sources like final of the
00:07:08
deep or teammates like chus Benet Buffs
00:07:10
saturate a bit and in this scenario
00:07:12
yansan holding Cinder City makes a big
00:07:15
difference meanwhile for a character
00:07:17
like Ryden that has very high damage
00:07:19
bonus values pretty much natively the
00:07:21
CER City set is less of a Difference
00:07:23
Maker and bennet's attack bonuses
00:07:25
compare better but the Anan still has an
00:07:27
advantage at constellation 4 in her top
00:07:29
condition I and Bennett can only surpass
00:07:31
her if there's a pyro resonance on the
00:07:33
team meanwhile for a pyro DPS like arino
00:07:36
that doesn't necessarily have a whole
00:07:37
lot of attack since she can run
00:07:39
Elemental Mastery sens on a reaction
00:07:41
based teams Bennet really shines
00:07:43
compared to yansan regardless of if she
00:07:45
uses Cinder City or not also considering
00:07:48
that the double pyro setup guarantees
00:07:50
pyro resonance and that through his own
00:07:52
constellation sakes Bennet Buffs pyro
00:07:54
damage for the active character yansan
00:07:57
could still match him in this scenario
00:07:58
if her con six is reliable but I'm going
00:08:01
to wait for confirmations on that
00:08:03
basically a constilation 4 yansan is a
00:08:05
character that can compete with or even
00:08:07
surpass Bennett on a lot of teams in
00:08:09
terms of buffing and for Nan DPS she can
00:08:12
even do that at constellation zero
00:08:13
arguably there is honestly a possibility
00:08:15
that she's consistent on all themes even
00:08:17
a cost Edition zero but um I'm not going
00:08:19
to raise your expectations here just yet
00:08:22
of course there is some Nuance here
00:08:24
though Benet being a pyro character for
00:08:26
example makes him a good fate with
00:08:28
characters like chk one
00:08:30
that basically can gain effect through
00:08:31
their own kit based on the elements you
00:08:33
have on on your team for both of these
00:08:35
characters a pyro Ally generates a
00:08:37
considerable buff while an electro Ally
00:08:40
barely does anything moreover in pyro
00:08:42
reaction teams like melt or vaporit the
00:08:44
presence of Benet can really facilitate
00:08:46
setting up Buffs through world or
00:08:47
similar ways following his own Elemental
00:08:50
application basically as a basine yansan
00:08:52
Stacks up pretty well but overall it
00:08:54
depends I can't however complete the
00:08:56
discussion in the video without
00:08:58
addressing or heing in comparison to
00:09:00
benets in short her healing is pretty
00:09:02
bad it's tied to the night Soul burst
00:09:04
mechanic when triggered by the team it
00:09:06
will start her healing effect which will
00:09:08
be a 60% of her total attack every 2.8
00:09:11
seconds just for the active character
00:09:13
for 10 seconds in total not only this is
00:09:15
rather minuscule but it being tied to
00:09:17
Nel burst makes it highly dependent on
00:09:19
having Nan teammates the way Nel burst
00:09:22
works it's triggered by any Elemental
00:09:24
attack granted you have a nan character
00:09:26
on the team so the way this will take
00:09:28
place on themes where yansan is your
00:09:30
only Nan character is that as soon as
00:09:32
you start the rotation her healing
00:09:34
effect will begin and then will end
00:09:36
after 10 seconds which is definitely not
00:09:38
enough to cover your main DPS window for
00:09:40
it to restart again you'll have to wait
00:09:42
18 seconds from the first activation
00:09:45
which is the cool down of the night
00:09:46
burst with with one Nan character on the
00:09:48
team if you have two Nan characters it
00:09:50
becomes much more viable but still
00:09:52
slightly inconsistent as the cool down
00:09:54
goes down to 12 seconds with three Nan
00:09:57
characters on the team the healing is
00:09:58
full time but this is a rather extreme
00:10:01
condition besides this there is still
00:10:03
the fact that their healing is really
00:10:04
not great and probably not something you
00:10:07
can consistently rely on as the soul
00:10:08
sustain option for your team so
00:10:11
definitely worse than Benet in that
00:10:12
regard which hurts her offensively as
00:10:15
well because it means that she can't
00:10:16
enable furina as well as he can this is
00:10:19
not necessarily A make or break thing
00:10:21
because you can still pair her with
00:10:22
other great defensive options like sit
00:10:24
Lali shilon and Lan that are still great
00:10:27
offensively so they can cover for L for
00:10:30
y and deficiencies but it can be a
00:10:32
problem in the scenario where you can't
00:10:34
use any of these for example on kinich
00:10:36
teams and so yanan's lack of healing
00:10:39
becomes a real issue so we basically
00:10:41
have a character that can match or even
00:10:43
surpass Bennet in terms of offensive
00:10:45
buffing but can't really match him in
00:10:47
terms of rooll consolidation which is
00:10:50
the big thing going for him after all
00:10:52
still pretty impressive but not
00:10:53
massively so I must say and with this
00:10:56
I'm done for today if you enjoy this
00:10:58
video make sure to sub subscribe and uh
00:11:00
bye-bye
