Overview

  • Off-field Electro damage
  • Sub-DPS

Yae Miko places up to three Sesshou Sakura with her Elemental Skill. They strike nearby enemies with Electro on their own and grow stronger when they stand close together, so she spends most of a fight off the field. Her Burst turns each Sakura into a powerful Tenko Thunderbolt, and her passive resets one Skill charge for every Sakura destroyed, so you can place a fresh set right away.

Give her ATK, Electro DMG Bonus and crits. In teams that trigger Aggravate, Elemental Mastery also pays off, because her passive turns it into extra Sakura damage. She fits Electro, Aggravate and other teams that want steady Electro from off the field.

Weapons

Best first. Every catalyst on this list links to its page.

  1. Kagura's Verity ★★★★★

    Her signature catalyst. CRIT DMG and a stacking Skill DMG bonus, which matches how often she places her Sakura.

  2. Skyward Atlas ★★★★★

    ATK and an Elemental DMG Bonus that applies to every Sakura strike. A strong 5-star alternative.

  3. The Widsith ★★★★

    A 4-star with CRIT DMG and a big random buff when she enters the field. Very strong for its rarity.

  4. Oathsworn Eye ★★★★

    ATK and Energy Recharge after using her Skill. A 4-star that keeps her Burst on schedule.

  5. Hakushin Ring ★★★★

    Energy Recharge on the main stat and an Elemental DMG Bonus for Electro and the reacting element after an Electro reaction. Good for supportive setups.

Artifact sets

  1. Golden Troupe 4-piece

    The Sakura count as Elemental Skill damage and she spends most of her time off the field, so both parts of this set help her.

  2. Gilded Dreams 4-piece

    Best in Aggravate teams. The Elemental Mastery it gives also boosts Sakura damage through her passive.

  3. Thundering Fury + Gladiator's Finale 2-piece each

    Electro DMG Bonus plus ATK. A simple stopgap while you farm a 4-piece.

Teams

  • Aggravate

    Nahida applies Dendro so Yae and Fischl trigger Aggravate, and Kazuha groups enemies and raises Electro damage.

  • Raiden Aggravate

    Raiden takes the field while Yae's Sakura add Electro in the background. Raiden's Burst also helps Yae's Energy.

  • Budget Aggravate

    Collei keeps Dendro on enemies, Fischl adds more Electro, and Sucrose groups enemies and lends Elemental Mastery.

  • Stellar-Conduct

    Odette and Sandrone turn Superconduct into Stellar-Conduct. Yae keeps Electro on enemies from off the field with her turrets, and Alyosha adds more Electro and heals.

Tips

  • Place the three Sakura near each other so they level up, but not on top of each other, and put them where enemies will gather. They only strike targets within range.
  • A smooth rotation is three Skills, the Burst, then three Skills again. The Burst destroys the Sakura and refunds charges, so you lose nothing.
  • Do not place a new Sakura too close to an old one, or the old one is destroyed early.
  • Her Skill is the core of her damage, so level it first, then the Burst.

Other character guides recommend Yae Miko as a teammate in these teams.

Talents

Normal Attack Spiritfox Sin-Eater
Normal Attack Summons forth kitsune spirits, initiating a maximum of 3 attacks that deal Electro DMG.

Plunging Attack Plunges towards the ground from mid-air, damaging all opponents in her path with thunderous might. Deals AoE Electro DMG upon impact with the ground.
Elemental Skill Yakan Evocation: Sesshou Sakura
To Yae, such dull tasks as can be accomplished by driving spirits out need not be done personally. Moves swiftly, leaving a Sesshou Sakura behind. Sesshou Sakura Has the following properties: · Periodically strikes one nearby opponent with lightning, dealing Electro DMG · When there are other Sesshou Sakura nearby, their level will increase, boosting the DMG dealt by these lightning strikes. This skill has three charges. A maximum of 3 Sesshou Sakura can exist simultaneously. The initial level of each Sesshou Sakura is 1, and the initial highest level each sakura can reach is 3. If a new Sesshou Sakura is created too close to an existing one, the existing one will be destroyed.
Elemental Burst Great Secret Art: Tenko Kenshin
Legends of "kitsunetsuki," or the manifestation of a kitsune's might, are common in Inazuma's folktales. One that particularly captures the imagination is that of the Sky Kitsune, said to cause lightning to fall down upon the foes of the Grand Narukami Shrine. Summons a lightning strike, dealing AoE Electro DMG. When she uses this skill, Yae Miko will unseal nearby Sesshou Sakura, destroying their outer forms and transforming them into Tenko Thunderbolts that descend from the skies, dealing AoE Electro DMG. Each Sesshou Sakura destroyed in this way will create one Tenko Thunderbolt.
Passive talent The Shrine's Sacred Shade
