Yangyang: Xuanling

★★★★★☆ Havoc Sword — Main DPS (Heavy Attack focus)

Overview

Yangyang: Xuanling is the 5★ SP variant of Yangyang, arriving in Wuthering Waves v3.5. Born the second daughter of a renowned musical family from Mingting, she is a “Votary of the Voice” who can commune with the Streams. Gentle yet strong, pure-hearted and romantic — her life and blade exist only to protect.

She wields Havoc as a Sword Main DPS with a dual-stance combat system: Azure Sword Stance and Feather Sword Stance. Her kit revolves around stacking Void Annihilation Marks (Havoc Bane) and consuming them for massive Crit DMG boosts.

Kit (Leaked — subject to change)

Scrape check 2026-07-05: Fandom wiki has NO released kit data yet (“doesn’t have any Forte yet”) — release is 2026-07-10. Kit below remains leak-based. Re-run _scripts/fandom_scraper.py a few days after release, then replace this section.

Basic Attacks

• Azure Sword Stance: Up to 4 consecutive Havoc DMG hits consuming Resonance Flow (Melody). Stage 4 applies 1 Void Annihilation Mark.
• Feather Sword Stance: Same as Azure — 4 hits, Mark on Stage 4.
• Mid-air Attack: Plunging Havoc DMG (consumes Flow). Quick tap after → Stage 2.

Resonance Skill — Feather’s Edge

• Short press: Swap between Azure/Feather stance → triggers Stage 1 basic attack.
• Sword Stance Switch: Heavy Attack Havoc DMG. Can trigger Perfect Dodge (costs 50 Flow).

Resonance Liberation — Hush of a Thousand Voices

• Consumes all stored Resonance Flow.
• Massive Heavy Attack Havoc DMG.
• Restores 1 Azure Plume stack.
• Grants Voice upon Voice: summons Shadow of Xuanling for additional Heavy Attack Havoc DMG.

Forte Circuit — Sword Stance Flow

Triggers when Resonance Flow reaches 0.

Variant	Effect
Azure (from Feather)	Restores 100 Flow + 1 Azure Plume. Consumes 1 Mark → +100% Crit DMG (15s). Summons Wraith of Sound on interrupt.
Feather (from Azure)	Mirror effect. Same Crit DMG buff.

Heavy Attacks

• Azure Stance: At max Azure Plume → large cyclone AoE, applies 2 Void Annihilation Mark stacks.
• Feather Stance: Grounded → auto-triggers Feather Fall, 2 Mark stacks.
• Feather Fall (mid-air): Enters Hark the Wind (12s), basic attacks become 3-stage Havoc in Bloom.

Key Passives

• Feathered Oath: Each teammate Mark application → stack (1s CD, max 6). Per stack: +30% Crit DMG to heavy attacks (up to +180%).
• Innate Skill 1: 1-3 Mark stacks: +10% dmg/stack. 4-6 stacks: +12% dmg/stack.
• Innate Skill 2: Ultimate hits cap enemy Mark stacks. At 6 Windbound stacks → One with the Wind: instant 6 Mark application.

Outro Skill — As the Wind Wills

⚠️ Still unverified — checked 2026-07-05. The old “+20% Aero DMG” claim (suspicious on a Havoc unit) no longer exists anywhere: neither data/_roster.json nor _team-data/roster.json has a Xuanling entry, so there is nothing to correct in the DB. The Fandom wiki has no Outro data yet either. Verify the real Outro effect after the 2026-07-10 release.

Yangyang perceives natural air currents, concentrating them into force fields. Using resonance, she condenses “Azure Plume” to see through the frequencies of all things, neutralizing intense energy into gently flowing breezes. Whether the target is living or not, she can remove both the resonance ability itself and its effects.

Archives — Resonance Evaluation Report [RA2710-G]

• Resonance Spectrum Pattern fit remains extremely high; Rabelle’s Curve settles into stable oscillation. Confirmed Natural Resonator.
• Resonates with surrounding air currents and gathers them into energy fields.
• Condenses resonance power into “Azure Plumes” — they neutralize and restore the frequencies they touch, and can erase the resonance powers and effects imprinted on living and non-living things.

Archives — Overclock Diagnostic Report

• Waveform: elliptical fluctuations, occasional needle-point spikes, both peak values trending upward. No abnormal waveforms at present.
• Overclock threshold has DECREASED vs previous reports. Stability high, but latent risks warrant attention.
• Prior history of Overclocking. Maximum severity: Moderate. Regular physicals advised; psychological counseling deemed unnecessary.

Heartfelt — Cherished Item: “Records of Each Other”

• The letters Yangyang saved from Rover — treasured every one, “by now they would stack into a little mountain.”
• Tracing the written lines about lands she’s never visited, she vividly pictures Rover passing through them.

Heartfelt — Hobby / Ideals / Thoughts

• Hobby: Kite-flying with her sister, who joked that with Yangyang around they could “catch a breeze even on a windless day” (aero powers manifested young). Sister watched to make sure she didn’t cheat in kite contests.
• Ideals: “Protection takes many forms… I don’t dream of gaining the power to protect the world, but for now… I want to stand by your side. Together, I believe we can protect so much more.”
• Thoughts: Asks Rover to re-tell in person the adventures from the letters — the Black Shores, Ragunna, Septimont, and Lahai-Roi (places her in the current, post-Lahai-Roi timeline).

Theorycrafting Notes

• Havoc Bane synergy is the core DPS mechanism — needs teammates that help stack/maintain Void Annihilation Marks.
• Chisa gives +3 max debuff stacks — directly amplifies Mark cap from 6 to potentially 9.
• Phrolova gives +20% Havoc DMG + 25% Heavy ATK DMG — both match Xuanling’s profile perfectly.
• Roccia gives +20% Havoc DMG (but Basic ATK buff is wasted on a Heavy ATK DPS).
• Mortefi gives +38% Heavy ATK DMG — solid budget alternative.
• Needs healer slot: Shorekeeper (universal) or Cantarella (Havoc healer).
