  • Advanced Properties
  • Attribute Scaling
  • Preview

Fires off a Lifeline that allows her to move rapidly, entangling and marking opponents along its path.
When this rapid movement ends, the Lifeline will explode, dealing Hydro DMG to the marked opponents based on Yelan's Max HP.

Tap
Moves a certain distance forward swiftly.

Hold
Engages in continuous, swift movement, during which Yelan's resistance to interruption is increased.
During this time, Yelan can control this rapid movement and end it by using this Skill again.

Additionally, each opponent marked by the Lifeline when it explodes grants Yelan a 34% chance to reset her Breakthrough state.

  • If this skill is held, the cooldown does not start until Yelan's rapid movement ends.
  • When this skill hits at least one enemy, it generates 4 Elemental Particles.
  • The skill key/button does not need to remain pressed once the hold version of this skill triggers (takes about 1 second).
  • The Lifeline pulls opponents towards Yelan when it explodes.
  • When Yelan's Breakthrough state is reset by this talent, a visual indicator will appear above her head.
  • When Lingering Lifeline is held, the Elemental Skill icon changes.
  • Yelan is still affected by Movement Speed when this skill is held.
  • When Yelan's Lifeline marks an opponent, being staggered, jumping, sprinting, using a Normal Attack, or pressing the Elemental Skill button again will cause it to explode.
  • Voice-overs for Lingering Lifeline will only play if at least one target is successfully marked.
