Emboldening Salvo also provides the squad with a buff, so the level of this skill should be increased either in parallel, or after pumping superpowers, if there are not enough resources.

Talent only affects Yukun's own damage, but even if she is used in the position of a secondary damage dealer, the ult and skill still remain in priority. Basic Attack runs at the very end.

Then the move is made by an ally who receives a buff and removes 1 level. However, if you immediately activate the ultimate after that, it will be possible to extend the buff for another turn.

Advantages and disadvantages

In order to use Yukun as efficiently as possible, it is necessary to take into all its features.

Advantages	Disadvantages
Imposes universal buffs for the squad: Increases attack power, critical damage and critical chance. hits. At the same time, all enhancing abilities are not scaled by any characteristic, which simplifies the assembly.	Needs precise calibration speeds the entire team for trouble-free operation of the Roaring Bowstring status. Your own stats should be higher than those of the team’s damage dealers. At the same time, the action of defensive s should come before Yukun's turn in the current or next cycle, so that buffs are not wasted on healing/shields.
Can apply quite well damage to single targets using a basic attack and a superpower, which will be in demand in battles against bosses. Thanks to this, the character can be used not only as a , but also as a secondary damage dealer.	Forces keep track of the number of status levels and alternate skills in such a way that the Roaring Bowstring is always active at the time of the main damage dealer’s turn. The situation is simplified by obtaining E6, but only partially.
The technique increases movement speed for 20 seconds. Although the size of the Star Rail locations is small, it is will speed up movement on the map, making farming monsters or chests more comfortable.	Expensive superpower (130 units), which plays an important role in the gameplay. To compensate for the deficiency, E2 and energy recovery in the connecting rope of the planar decoration are urgently needed.
High penetration combined with the fact that Yukun is currently the only free character of his element and has epic rarity. It is not necessary to pump up the damage of the Head of the Flight Commission in order to easily remove a large amount of stamina from imaginary shields.	Not high damage potential. Although Yukun can act as a sub-DPS, it is not possible to fully exploit the fox in this role. The heroine deals damage only to one target, and consistently only with a basic attack, since the ultimate takes a long time to charge. Path of Harmony light cones also do not offer the same high damage ceiling as other weapon classes.
Unique for heroes of their element thanks to the Legacy Bow trail, which increases the apparent damage of all allies. Combined with the Date with the Stars cone and decorations "The Dreamland of Penaconia" can increase various damage-dealing aspects exclusively for imaginary characters.

How to play as Yukun

Yukun is a character that buffs allies with buffs. At the same time, thanks to her talent and superpower, she can also deal damage to one target, acting as a secondary damage dealer. The key feature of the archer is the status Roaring string - it depends on him whether the buffs will work. The status is triggered when stacks are accumulated, which can be obtained in the following ways:

• Application equipment - at the beginning of the battle level 2.
• Application skill – 2 levels.
• Application ults (in the presence of E6) - 1 level.

In addition, it is worth considering that the levels are removed after each move of the allies, which forces you to carefully think through actions and choose the right moment - when to use the basic attack and restore skill points, and when the skill is to activate the status at the time of the main DD.

Rotation

The main recommendations when compiling the Yukun rotation:

1. Before the battle, use the “Chasing the Wind” technique, then attack the enemy with a basic attack to immediately gain 2 status levels at the beginning of the battle and activate the Roaring Bowstring (the levels are the diamonds above the HP bar in the area of ​​the character icon).
2. When it's Yukun's turn, if there are any major or minor damage dealers coming after her, use the Inspiring Volley skill to increase the attack power of these allies for 2 turns. Otherwise, use a basic strike to avoid wasting an action point.
3. Use the Dive Hawk superpower only when Roaring Bowstring is activeto get maximum boosts. For example, immediately after a skill, thanks to which all the energy for the ultimate was restored.
4. During the battle, try to alternate between the skill and the basic attack to constantly refresh the boost from the “Seven Layers, One Arrow” talent, restore skill points and maintain status.

Conclusion on the character

Yuikun is an imaginary character walking along Ways of Harmony. With her abilities, she increases the power of the squad due to bonuses to attack power, crit. damage and crit chance. hits. At the same time, the head of the Flight Commission is absolutely undemanding to the formation and even without the legendary equipment does an excellent job. It is enough to collect speed and energy recovery so that it benefits allies.

The main feature of the archer is the imposition of the Roaring bowstring status, on which all her buffs directly depend. However, if there should be no problems with the skill initially, then without the sixth eidolon it becomes much more difficult to guess the moment of using the superpower, since the ult itself does not restore the bowstring level. To some extent, the character pushes for thinking through each action, forcing you to follow the sequence of moves and prioritize to get the maximum impact in battle.
