Yinlin
Lightning of Execution
Yes for Electro coordinated Sub DPS—Yinlin still enables Liberation hypercarries. Liberation “Thundering Wrath” commands Zapstring for a wide Electro Liberation dump. Best with Xiangli Yao / Calcharo / Shorekeeper. Judgement Points and Zapstring want an on-fielder who actually uses the Electro / Liberation amp. Skip when your Electro side already has a better coordinator and you won’t field Liberation carries.
Yinlin is a 5★ Electro Sub DPS who fights with a Rectifier. Liberation “Thundering Wrath” commands Zapstring for a wide Electro Liberation dump. Forte “Chameleon Cipher” feeds Judgement Points into Zapstring / coordinated Electro payoff. Outro “Strategist” amplifies the incoming Resonator’s damage on Outro handoff.

Strengths
- Liberation “Thundering Wrath” commands Zapstring for a wide Electro Liberation dump — that window is where Yinlin’s clear speed actually shows up.
- Forte “Chameleon Cipher” feeds Judgement Points into Zapstring / coordinated Electro payoff, so resource banking is mandatory, not optional filler.
- Outro “Strategist” amplifies the incoming Resonator’s damage on Outro handoff — swap timing is part of the damage plan, not just Concerto filling.
- Skill “Magnetic Roar” seeds coordinated pressure so Yinlin still contributes after leaving the field.
Weaknesses
- Needs a real on-fielder to cash out coordinated / Off-field hits — Yinlin is not a full clear unit alone.
- Energy and Forte “Chameleon Cipher” tuning feel awkward until Concerto breakpoints are learned.

Shorekeeper’s Stellarealm is the premium generalist seat — party CRIT Rate/DMG, heal, and DMG amp so Iuno can greed the full Liberation window.
