Lan Yan Ascension Passives and Materials

Ascension Passive Explanation
Four Sealing Divination Blades

When the dash from the Elemental Skill Phoenix-Wisp Pinion Dance hits an opponent, if it interacts with Hydro/Pyro/Cryo/Electro, the Phoenix-Wisp Shield will undergo Elemental Conversion, with the converted shield absorbing DMG from the corresponding element with 250% efficiency.

Additionally, if this use of Phoenix-Wisp Pinion Dance causes the Phoenix-Wisp Shield to undergo Elemental Conversion, the Feathermoon Rings Lan Yan throws at her foes additionally deal Elemental DMG equal to 50% of the original in the corresponding Elemental Type. This DMG is considered Elemental Skill DMG.

Skyfeather Evil-Subduing Charm

The Elemental Skill Phoenix-Wisp Pinion Dance and the Elemental Burst Lustrous Moonrise deal increased DMG equal to 309% and 774% of Lan Yan's Elemental Mastery respectively.

Lan Yan's Talents

Type Talent Name Brief Explanation
Normal Normal Attack: Black Pheasant Strides on Water

Normal Attack

Wields her ring blades and performs up to 4 attacks using them, dealing Anemo DMG.

Charged Attack

Consumes a certain amount of Stamina to throw out a ring blade, dealing Anemo DMG.

Plunging Attack

Plunges towards the ground from mid-air, damaging all opponents in her path. Deals AoE Anemo DMG upon impact with the ground.

Elemental Skill Phoenix-Wisp Pinion Dance

Summoning forth the Phoenix-Wisp Shield, a secret art passed down across generations, Lan Yan dashes forward and, upon making contact with her target, will leap back into the air.

The Phoenix-Wisp Shield's DMG absorption scales based on her ATK, and has a 250% absorption efficiency against Anemo DMG.

While in mid-air due to the effects of her Elemental Skill, pressing her Elemental Skill again or pressing Normal Attack will cause Lan Yan to hurl her Feathermoon Rings at an opponent, and they will spin between nearby opponents twice upon hit, dealing Anemo DMG.

Holding the Skill will cause it to behave differently.

Hold

Enter Aiming Mode to adjust the dash direction.

Elemental Burst Lustrous Moonrise

Lan Yan creates a Feathermoon Swallow Array, pulling in nearby opponents and objects and dealing multiple instances of AoE Anemo DMG.

To upgrade a single talent to level 10, it costs:

Source Quantity
Mora 1,625,500 Mora
Special Material 1x Crown of Insight
