Honkai Star Rail Yanqing kit, all Skills, Traces, & Eidolons

As you progress through the Main Story of Honkai: Star Rail, you'll eventually meet Yanqing, a expert swordsman who is so close to Jing Yuan they are almost like a found family. While I love his backstory, I'm not quite sold on him becoming a top tier character. He has a lot of damage potential, but is reliant on never being hit by an enemy. Want to know why? Take a look at his full kit, including all Skills, Traces and Eidolons.
