Yanfei
Yanfei is a clean, comfortable 4-star Pyro DPS, especially good for newer players who want a safe ranged carry. Her power isn't top-tier and leans heavily on chaining charged attacks, but paired into a Vaporize team with Xingqiu her damage is very consistent. What she needs most is a Hydro unit to trigger Vaporize and Bennett for the ATK buff. For the weapon, the craftable 4-star Mappa Mare is a solid free pick; farm Crimson Witch of Flames and prioritize CRIT, then a Pyro DMG goblet.
