Artifacts
1a. Retracing Bolide 4p (her most reliable option but requires shield characters such as Zhongli, Diona and Thoma. do not recommend farming for since Archaic Petra sucks, only use if you have leftovers)
1b. Shimenawa's Reminiscence 4p (best set for normal attack damage but restricts you from using your burst, preferably you should use this set since emblem is a good set to farm for as well)
2. Crimson Witch of Flames 4p (good set for vaporize and overload teams)
3. Echoes of an Offering 4p (not as good as previous options since the 4p bonus relies on your ping, please dont use this if you have the above options)
4. Any 2p combination of: 18% Attack, 80 EM and Crimson Witch of Flames (generalist set, only use 2p 80 EM if you are running vaporize or overload teams.)

Artifact Main Stats-
Sands: Attack%
Goblet: Pryo DMG %
Circlet: Crit

Recommended Attack: 2000+
Recommended ER: 130% - 150%

Weapons
5*
1. Thundering Pulse ; her signature weapon, can keep consistent uptime on the 40% normal attack buff
2a. Polar Star ; great crit stat, passive is ok
2b. Aqua Simulacra ; v high crit dmg, easy to build, passive is good
4. Skyward Harp ; high base attack, as well as good crit rate and crit dmg, should use if you have this
5. Amos Bow ; good attack stat stick, passive only works if far away from enemy
(Note: if you have an R5 rust, please use them over all of these weapons except Thundering Pulse or maybe Skyward Harp, use the other weapons on their respective characters)

4*
1. Rust ; best 4 star weapon by far, r5 can surpass most 5 star weapons
2. Hamayumi ; good weapon but incompatible with shimenawa, plus you cant use burst
3. Blackcliff Warbow ; crit dmg stat stick
(Note: most 4 star weapons are bad on Yoimiya, if you don't have Rust, consider using the 3 star weapon Slingshot)

Teams
Yoimiya is an on field DPS which require off field sub DPS and buffer supports to increase her personal damage. She has 2/3 playstyles.

Yoimiya Vaporize
Yoimiya ; Yelan/Xingqiu ; Zhongli/Bennett ; Yunjin
(Best team for yoimiya. Yelan and zhongli/diona are preferred for their damage buff and shield. Yoimiya requires shields to help her easily vaporize her 1st, 3rd and 5th normal attack. Using Diona and Thoma is fine but you need be careful since Thoma might steal vaporizes)

Yoimiya Overload
Yoimiya ; Raiden/Fischl ; Fischl/Beidou/Shinobu ; Kazuha/Bennett
(Yoimiya overload gives her more AOE damage, it is pretty viable and fun, but overall damage would be less than Vaporize)

Yoimiya Overvape
Yoimiya ; Yelan/Xingqiu ; Fischl/Beidou/Raiden ; Zhongli/Bennett
(High damage, very fun to play, as the same as before, Yelan and Zhongli are preferred for damage buff and shielding)

Feel free to substitute any characters that you like into these recommended teams.

End
Yoimiya is the last character banner before Sumeru releases. Overall, she is a fun and easy to play unit, and is worth your primogems. Her ease to play is one of her selling points although she is limited to single target scenarios. I hope all Yoimiya wanters will get her soon! Have fun with your Yoimiya!
