Xiangli Yao Review
Xiangli Yao’s main ability is his Resonance Liberation, which deals a huge percentage of damage to opponents based on his overall personal damage. He’s not just a destroyer; his playstyle is easy to use. His original Resonance Skill Deduction gives a small amount of Electro damage to enemies, but the high-damage portion of his Resonance Skill comes from his Forte Circuit. The Forte Circuit has two versions: the Normal Forte Circuit Gauge and the Ultimate Forte Circuit Gauge.
The Normal Forte Circuit Gauge is a bar that fills up as you keep Xiangli Yao on the field, increasing his enhanced skill’s power. The Ultimate Gauge, on the other hand, is linked to his Resonance Liberation, allowing him to unleash massive damage once it is fully charged.
His Resonance Liberation ability forms a Cogitation Model, generating a matrix glitch that deals AoE Electro DMG to enemies. During the active phase, he enters the Intuition State. By consuming Hypercubes, this state boosts his basic attacks, heavy attacks, and dodge counter, significantly enhancing combat effectiveness.
The Forte Circuit Gauge holds Performance Capacity, which increases with basic attacks—1 stack on the first hit and 2-3 stacks on the second hit. When using his Resonance Skill during Resonance Liberation, he gains 2 stacks on hit, allowing for a mid-air combo to gain 3 more stacks. His passive skill, Knowing, provides a 5% Electro DMG boost for each skill use, stacking up to four times. Additionally, his Outro Skill enables coordinated attacks, boosting his overall damage output.
