Genshin Impact Yaoyao kit – All Skills, Constellations, Passives & more!

Yaoyao is Madame Ping's younger disciple in Genshin Impact, a four-star Dendro polearm user who travels with a bunny companion named Yuegui. While she's shown to be more mature than her older co-student, Xiangling, Yaoyao is fond of sneaking into the Crux to play, prompting even Ganyu to ensure the child doesn't overstay.

Yaoyao is expected to drop in Version 3.4. While leakers have been able to get ahold of her kit from the 3.4 beta files, keep in mind that this information has not been confirmed by HoYoverse and is solely from a leak, it is to be taken with a grain of salt. Additionally, since the text below was directly translated by the leaker, the wording can be confusing and inaccurate to the source material.

Elemental Skill - Raphanus Sky Cluster

• Press: Calls upon "Yuegui: Throwing Mode," a special device created by a certain adeptus to help Yaoyao solve her problems. This skill will be used differently in Holding Mode.
• Hold: Enters Aiming Mode to adjust the throw direction.
• Yuegui: Throwing Mode:
  • Throws out White Jade Radishes that will explode upon hitting characters or opponents, dealing Dendro Damage to opponents within a certain AoE, and healing characters within that same AoE based on Yaoyao's Max HP.
  • If a radish does not hit either an opponent or a character, it will remain where it is and explode on contact with a character or opponent or will explode after its duration expires.
  • Yuegui: Throwing Mode will choose its radish-throw targets. If all nearby characters have more than 70 percent HP remaining, it will throw the radish at a nearby opponent.
  • If nearby characters have 70 percent or less HP remaining, it will throw a radish at the character with the lowest HP percentage remaining. If no opponents exist nearby, Yuegui will throw White Jade Radishes at characters even if they all have more than 70 percent HP remaining.

Yaoyao Passives

• Passive 1 (Starscatter): While affected by the Adeptal Legacy state caused by Moonjade Descent, Yaoyao will constantly throw White Jade Radishes at nearby opponents when she sprints, jumps, or runs. She can throw 1 White Jade Radish this way once every 0.6 seconds.
• Passive 2 (In Others' Shoes): When White Jade Radishes explode, active characters within their AoE will regain HP every 1 second based on 0.8 percent of Yaoyao's Max HP. This effect lasts 5 seconds.
• Passive 3 (Tailing on Tiptoes): When Yaoyao is at the party, your characters will not startle Crystalflies and certain other animals when getting near them. Check the "Other" sub-category of the "Living Beings / Wildlife" section in the Archive for creatures this skill works on.
