Yaoyao is the youngest disciple of Madame Ping, a four-star Dendro polearm user who travels with a bunny named Yuegui. While she has shown to be more mature than her older co-student Xiangling, Yaoyao likes to sneak into the Crux to play games, prompting even Ganyu to make sure the boy doesn’t stay longer.
Yaoyao is expected to drop in version 3.4. While leakers have been able to contact your kit beta files 3.4keep that in mind this information has not been confirmed and may change at any time.

Elemental Ability – Raphanus Sky Cluster
- Press: Calls “Yuegui: Launch Mode”, a special device created by a certain adept to help Yaoyao solve his problems. This ability will be used differently in standby mode.
- Hold: Enter aiming mode to adjust launch direction.
- Yuegui: launch mode:
- Throws white jade radishes that will explode when hitting characters or opponents, dealing Dendro damage to opponents within a given AoE and healing characters within that same AoE based on Yaoyao’s max HP.
- If a radish hits neither an opponent nor a character, the radish will stay where it is and explode upon contact with a character or opponent, or explode after its duration expires.
- Yuegui: Throwing Mode will choose his radish throwing targets. If all nearby characters have more than 70 percent HP left, it will throw the radish at a nearby opponent.
- If nearby characters have 70 percent or less HP left, it will throw a radish at the character with the lowest remaining HP percentage. If there are no opponents nearby, Yuegui will throw white jade radishes at the characters, even if they all have more than 70 percent HP left.

- The generated White Jade Radishes will be changed to heal and deal damage according to this ability. The explosions will heal all nearby party members, and the Dendro damage they deal will be seen as elemental explosion damage.

Yaoyao Bottoms

- Passive 2 (In other people’s shoes): When the White Jade Radishes explode, active characters within their AoE will recover HP every 1 second based on 0.8 percent of Yaoyao’s maximum HP. This effect lasts 5 seconds.
- Passive 3 (Follow on tiptoes): When Yaoyao is in the party, your characters will not scare Crystalflies or other animals when they get close to them. See the “Other” subcategory of the “Living Things/Wildlife” section in the archive for creatures this ability works on.
