Yvonne Build Guide

Yvonne Gilberta Xaihi Fluorite

Yvonne and Gilberta synergize together well, and this team consumes the Nature Inflictions from Gilberta as the main source.

Xaihi is a great buffer for Yvonne, and Fluorite is the only Operator that can Inflict Nature on Combo.

Overall, this team does high damage on paper, but playing Yvonne can be quite clunky sometimes. The team is also quite expensive, using two Limited Operators to hit the best damage.

Yvonne Xaihi Fluorite + Last Rite / Snowshine

Last Rite / Snowshine are the most efficient Cryo Inflictors with their Battle Skill (70 SP). Xaihi is best in slot for Cryo teams due to her being able to Cryo Amp, Cryo Inflict, and heal. Fluorite is there to provide extra Inflictions on Combo/Ultimate.

You can also replace Fluorite with another buffer like Ardelia / Gilberta / Perlica is ideal.

Xaihi takes two Final Strikes to apply Cryo Infliction, while Last Rite takes 1 Final Strike. This means your rotation will consist of 2 Final Strikes for 3 Inflictions.

Weapons

• Best-in-Slot: Artzy Tyrannical
• Alt: Wedge (Level 45 Selector)
• Alt: Navigator (Free Battlepass)
• F2P: Opus: The Living
• Super F2P: Howling Guard

Yvonne’s Signature offers great stats and good synergy with her gameplay, making it the best option for her.

Both Wedge and Navigator are good options in case you don’t have Artzy Tyrannical. Navigator still provides some Crit Rate, but Wedge gives more as the Secondary Stat.

Wedge is obtainable from the Level 45 Selector, but it also includes JET (BiS for Avywenna) and Detonation Unit (Great Arts Unit). Navigator is obtainable from the Battle Pass at Level 40 (free if you complete the battlepass since Originite is refunded). However, that Selector also has Umbral Torch, which is 2nd BiS for Laevatain. Use this information to decide what's best for your account.

If none of these options are available, Opus: The Living will be the best option for you. The stats are not as great as other options, but still gives Crit Rate and effects that can be easily triggered without any changes on Yvonne’s Gameplay.

Gear

• Gear Set: MI Security
• Armor: MI Security Overalls
• Gloves: MI Security Hands PPE
• Kit 1: MI Security Toolkit
• Kit 2: MI Security Toolkit

MI Security allows you to stack a lot of Crit Rate and give you extra stats by hitting Critical Hits. Since Yvonne’s Ultimate has a lot of hits, this set has amazing synergy and is highly recommended.

Ultimate > Basic Attack > Battle Skill = Combo Skill

Basic Attack damage is more important than you might think, as you likely will be using Yvonne as your on-fielder, so it does provide meaningful damage.

Her Ultimate will be her big burst damage, and Battle/Combo can be raised afterward.

• P1 Flash Freezer
• P2 Flawless Creation
• P3 Tink-a-Power
• P4 Rebellious Mood
• P5 Expert Mechcrafter

Yvonne’s Potentials focus on increasing her damage, some of them include utilities, such as Potential 1 which increases her Combo Skill area of effect, and Potential 4 which improves her Battle Skill to return SP. None of them are noticeable or offers a different approach to Yvonne’s Gameplay.

Keep in mind that vertically investing in Arknights Endfield is not recommended and you should treat these as a bonus damage/utility for your Operator.

While Yvonne deals a lot of damage by herself, she still requires some team setup and good timing on skill to ensure you get the most out of her.

Start applying Cryo or Nature Infliction on the enemy using one of your other Operators. Once applied, use Yvonne’s Battle Skill to consume Inflictions and Solidify enemies. Hit a Solidified enemy with a Final Strike to trigger her Combo Skill, which pulls enemies, deals damage and forces another Solidification on enemies.

Her Ultimate enhances her Basic Attacks for a few seconds. The Enhanced Final Strike can consume Solidification from enemies to deal massive damage, so you need to time her Combo Skill properly or use other Operators to apply Solidification on the enemy before Yvonne’s Final Strike.

Yvonne will release on January 22nd, 2026 along with the release of Arknights: Endfield. She will be part of the Limited Off-Banner Pool, but won't be featured (50/50 rate) until the third Limited Banner character after Laevatain and Gilberta.

Banner: February 24th, 2026 to March 13th, 2026

Her banner will likely last approximately 2.5 weeks. From there, she will be removed from the off-banner pool after 2 additional banners, making her total run time end in approximately mid April.
