Teams that want Yao Guang
Ice · full Elation
Pearl
Three Elation units and Pearl: Evanescia and Yao Guang carry, the Trailblazer feeds the Elation counter on every turn, and Pearl keeps them standing without spending a Skill Point on damage.
Quantum · Elation
Aventurine • Waveflair
Waveflair banks "Fervor" every time a teammate attacks and spends it on an all-enemy Elation Skill, so the team wants a second Elation unit feeding the counter, a Harmony buffer that adds actions, and a sustain that attacks on its own turn.
Fire · Elation
Sparxie
Elation runs on Punchline the whole team feeds, so a second Elation character is worth more here than a stronger buff from another Path.
Imaginary · Elation
Silver Wolf LV.999
Her Zone pays out on every Skill Point an ally spends inside it, so the team wants Skill Point spenders rather than a second damage dealer.
Imaginary · Elation
Silver Wolf LV.999
Four Elation units: Sparxie and Yao Guang spend Skill Points inside her Zone, Yao Guang’s Zone raises everyone’s Elation, and Pearl heals off DEF. The most-used team in 4.6, run in 34.8% of clears across the four endgame modes.
Quantum · Elation
Aeon ★ Aha
Aha’s Skill makes one ally the Emanator of Elation: +20% Elation for them, and a point of Wishpower for Aha at the start of each of their turns. Here the mark goes on Silver Wolf LV.999, Yao Guang’s Zone raises everyone’s Elation, and Pearl heals.
Quantum · Elation
Aeon ★ Aha
Once allies’ Punchline reaches 40, Aha raises all allies’ CRIT DMG by 40%. Sparxie and Yao Guang both gain Punchline on their own turns, so Sparxie takes the Emanator mark and Pearl heals.
Quantum · Elation
Aeon ★ Aha
Waveflair banks "Fervor" every time a teammate attacks, and Aha’s Skill is itself a follow-up on all enemies, so the Emanator mark and the hit both feed him. Yao Guang raises Elation, Pearl heals.
Quantum · Elation
Aeon ★ Aha
Four Elation units and no sustain: Sparxie carries with the Emanator mark, Evanescia is a second Elation carry, and Yao Guang’s Ultimate adds 20% All-Type RES PEN for all allies.
