Lost Prayer to the Sacred Winds is the best weapon for Yanfei, but you can also equip Skyward Atlas. For F2P players, you can equip Flowing Purity, which you can forge at a blacksmith. Ballad of the Boundless Blue is a good option, but you can only obtain it from Waterborne Poetry Event.
For Artifact, you can equip the Crimson Witch of Flames set to increase her Pyro damage. Another great option is Shimenawa’s Reminiscence set, which can boost her Charged Attacks. If you don’t want to grind for equipment, you can use the Wanderer’s Troupe set, which can also buff Charged Attacks.
The best Constellation to unlock is Yanfei’s C6, Extra Clause. This Constellation increases the maximum number of Scarlet Seals by one, which boosts her maximum damage output.
Unlike most DPS, Yanfei’s main source of damage comes from her Charged Attacks. That means you should level up her Normal Attack first to increase her damage output. Afterward, you can upgrade both her Elemental Burst and Skill for extra damage.
