Welcome, Genshin Impact fans diving into Black Beacon!
If you're coming from Genshin Impact and recently picked up Yuli in Black Beacon, you're probably wondering: Is she worth building? How do her skills, weapons, and teams stack up against other Thunder DPS characters in the game?
This guide breaks down everything you need to know about optimizing Yuli — from her skill upgrade path, best team comps, and ideal weapon choices to her Ancient Marks, dupe priority, and how squishy she really is.
Let’s jump into the best way to build Yuli — no fluff, just useful insight.
Yuli Overview: Thunder DPS with Assassin Vibes
Yuli is a Thunder-element AoE DPS in Black Beacon. Her fast movement and aggressive animations might remind Genshin mains of characters like Yelan or Keqing. She plays like a roaming assassin, darting in and out of combat, but she comes with a few downsides.
Without dupes, her damage is decent but not amazing. And yes — she’s pretty squishy, so team support is crucial. That said, her kit offers consistent AoE pressure, and her switch-in mechanics make her great for rotation-heavy teams.
Skill Upgrade Priority for Yuli
To get the most out of Yuli’s kit, here’s the recommended skill leveling order:
-
First Priority: Her passive skill, Double Embroidery. It activates on switch-in and massively boosts her rotation value.
-
Second Priority: Skill 2, Cloud Shredder, which dishes out AoE Thunder damage.
-
Third Priority: Skill 1, Spinning Gold, good for fast damage output.
-
Fourth Priority: Her Ultimate, Silk Rift — powerful, but doesn’t scale as well as the rest of her kit early on.
After these, you can max out her Combo Skill and Basic Attacks, though they don't impact her overall output nearly as much.
Best Team Comps Featuring Yuli
There are a few core teams that make Yuli shine, especially if you’re trying to keep her alive while maximizing damage.
Yuli + Ai + Ninsar
-
Yuli plays as your main AoE DPS.
-
Ai acts as the healer — essential due to Yuli’s low survivability.
-
Ninsar provides buffs, shields, and extra healing. Her attack boost helps Yuli hit harder while keeping her alive longer.
This team is great for extended fights and stacking Elemental Overload effects.
Yuli + Jixia + Ai
-
Jixia serves as a breaker and crowd controller.
-
She groups enemies for Yuli to destroy with AoE.
-
Ai fills the healer role again to sustain Yuli during her rotations.
This setup is solid for high-control, burst-damage scenarios.
Yuli + Az + Ai
-
Az is a debuffer and applies Thunder-aligned resistance shredding.
-
Ai, as always, handles the heals.
-
Yuli benefits from both Thunder synergy and heavy debuffs here.
This team focuses more on debuff stacking and Elemental Anomaly procs, making Yuli feel much more impactful.
Yuli’s Strengths in Combat
Yuli brings unique advantages to a rotation-based setup:
-
Switch-In Power: Thanks to her passive, she gets immediate value when entering the field. This makes her flexible enough to be a sub-DPS if needed.
-
Wide AoE Damage: All her offensive skills hit multiple enemies. In wave-based content, this helps her quickly clear screens, assuming she has the right buffs.
With the right rotation and synergy, she can be a strong asset on your Thunder teams.
Her Core Weaknesses
Yuli isn’t without flaws — and these can impact how viable she is for long-term investment:
-
Paper-Thin Survivability: Despite similar base stats to other DPS characters, she feels far more fragile. Without Ai or shield support, she won’t last long in tough fights.
-
Low Damage Without Investment: Un-duped, her output feels underwhelming. Players often report other characters outpacing her damage in endgame setups.
-
Dupes Are Too Impactful: Her scaling is heavily tied to constellation-style upgrades. You need to commit to see real results.
If you're not planning to pull dupes, there are safer characters to build around.
Best Weapon for Yuli
As with many units in Black Beacon, Yuli’s signature 5-star weapon, Graceful Cloudplay, is her Best-in-Slot (BiS).
This weapon grants:
-
+108 Elemental Anomaly Mastery
-
Boosts Quilting Stitch damage by 16% when using Spiral Embroidery or Thread Mastery
-
Speeds up Anomaly accumulation by 20% for 15 seconds
If you have it — use it. It’s tailor-made for her kit.
If not, look for Thunder-element focused alternatives with high ATK%, Crit DMG, or Crit Rate stats.
Best Ancient Marks and Stats for Yuli
For maximum performance, target the following stats:
-
Attack %
-
Crit Rate
-
Crit Damage
While Pierce can be situationally useful, avoid investing in Elemental Anomaly. Yuli already builds anomaly every 25 attack points naturally, so it’s overkill.
As for Ancient Marks themselves? Stick to the game-recommended sets until the meta evolves. Once more testing is done, better setups might emerge — keep an eye out for updates in community posts.
Should You Pull Dupes for Yuli?
If you’re F2P and really like her playstyle, first dupe is enough. It significantly increases her single-target and AoE burst damage.
If you’re a spender or “whale,” consider these breakpoints:
-
Dupe 1: Adds powerful electric current damage to entangled targets — huge AoE bonus.
-
Dupe 2: Grants a 25% Thunder DMG buff, anomaly boost, and overload effect on ult use.
-
Dupe 3: Lowers enemy Thunder resistance by 30% — extremely valuable for Thunder teams.
-
Dupe 5: Boosts skill damage by 150% and makes her Ultimate activate Quilting Stitch.
-
Dupe 6: Adds 35% PS bonus and extends her control effects.
Unless you're all-in, Dupe 1 or 3 are the sweet spots. Anything past that is mostly for dedicated Yuli mains.
How Yuli Compares to Genshin Characters
For Genshin Impact players trying to find a comparison: Yuli plays like a mix of Keqing's mobility and Yelan's AoE burst but with added rotation mechanics. However, unlike those characters, she needs more investment to hit peak performance.
That said, if you enjoy fast gameplay and are used to glass-cannon roles, she’ll feel familiar and rewarding — just make sure you back her up with support units.
Is Yuli Worth Building for Long-Term Play?
It depends on your goals.
-
If you're casual or free-to-play and like her animations: Yes, especially with one dupe.
-
If you're chasing meta: Only build her if you’re willing to invest in dupes and her signature weapon.
-
For Genshin mains: she’s fun, fluid, and rotation-friendly — but squishier than most of her counterparts.
Final Thoughts: Yuli Can Shine With the Right Setup
Yuli isn’t a plug-and-play powerhouse in Black Beacon. She needs the right investment, support units, and ideally, a couple of dupes to perform at her best. Her Thunder AoE damage, switch-in potential, and synergy with healers and debuffers make her a unique pick for players who enjoy high-paced gameplay with tactical team setups.
If you're a Genshin Impact fan used to glass-cannon characters, she might feel like home — just don't expect her to carry without support early on. Build her wisely, manage your rotations, and she can become a strong part of your Black Beacon roster.
Conclusion
Yuli is a stylish and rotation-based Thunder DPS that will appeal to Genshin Impact fans who enjoy high-paced, precision-focused characters. While her damage output isn't exceptional out of the box, her kit can shine with thoughtful support, especially when played in teams that provide healing, debuffs, or resistance reduction. She's squishy but powerful when built correctly, and if you're planning to invest even modestly, her first or third dupe offers real returns. If you like Keqing or Yelan in Genshin, Yuli could be a fun and rewarding main in Black Beacon.
