Yangyang
Breath of Winds
Free—Yangyang is an Aero battery / early Concerto support. Liberation “Wind Spirals” deals a focused attribute damage hit as the named setup tool. Best with Jiyan / Jianxin / Aero carries. Energy Outro only matters if the next Resonator actually needs Resonance Energy. Skip when ER weapons and premium batteries already solve Liberation uptime.

Forte “Echoing Feathers” routes damage through mid-air / plunging attack chains. Outro “Whispering Breeze” restore 4 resonance energy per second for 5s for the incoming resonator.

Strengths
- Liberation “Wind Spirals” deals a focused attribute damage hit as the named setup tool — team value spikes when this window is online every rotation.
- Forte “Echoing Feathers” routes damage through mid-air / plunging attack chains, so resource banking is mandatory, not optional filler.
- Outro “Whispering Breeze” keeps the incoming Resonator topped while the rest of the squad stays in the heal aura.
- Aerial / plunge routes give flexible dodge and reposition options mid-combo.
Weaknesses
- Value collapses if you cannot use the Amplification niche on Outro “Whispering Breeze”.
- ER / Concerto investment competes with DPS Echo farming until Liberation is reliable.
- 4★ ceiling is real — expect to rotate them out when a premium option takes the same niche.

Carlotta is the on-fielder this shell is built around — Yangyang keeps them alive and buffed through Liberation.
Shorekeeper’s Stellarealm is the premium generalist seat — party CRIT Rate/DMG, heal, and DMG amp so Carlotta can greed the full Liberation window.
Yangyang enables this shell — keep Outro / setup online every rotation for Carlotta + Shorekeeper.
