Yukong is a strong buffer who provides both Crit Rate and Crit DMG, making her valuable across various teams. However, she shines the most in Mono Imaginary Teams, where her buffs significantly amplify the team's overall Imaginary DMG output.
Best Cavern Relics
(2) Increases SPD by 6%.
(4) When the wearer uses their Ultimate on an ally, SPD for all allies increases by 12% for 1 turn(s). This effect cannot be stacked.
This is likely Yukong's best relic set. While it doesn’t directly boost her own damage or buffs, it provides a valuable team-wide SPD boost whenever she uses her Ultimate, helping the entire team cycle turns faster.
Best Planar Ornaments
(2) Increases the wearer's Effect RES by 10%. When the wearer's Effect RES is at 30% or higher, all allies' CRIT DMG increases by 10%.
To keep Yukong safe from crowd control debuffs and boost the team's Crit DMG, the Broken Keel ornament set is a great option. It increases Effect RES and grants a teamwide Crit DMG bonus when the wearer reaches the required threshold.

info
Since Yukong’s ATK, Crit Rate, and Crit DMG buffs don’t scale with her own stats, her main priorities are survival and energy regeneration to ensure frequent Ultimate usage and consistent team support.
Best Light Cones

Cannot Stop It!
When the wearer uses their Ultimate, all allies' actions are Advanced Forward by 16~24%.Probably Yukong’s best Light Cone, Dance! Dance! Dance! synergizes well with the Messenger Traversing Hackerspace set by advancing the team’s actions. Although its effect only triggers after Yukong uses her Ultimate and lasts only briefly, it’s still effective at disrupting enemy turns and giving her team a tempo advantage.

Increases the wearer's Break Effect by 28~56%. When the wearer attacks, additionally regenerates 4~8 Energy. This effect cannot be repeatedly triggered in a single turn.Memories of the Past is a solid option for Yukong, as it provides energy regeneration—crucial for maintaining the uptime of her Ultimate. While it doesn’t boost her offensive stats, it helps ensure she can cycle her buffs more consistently.
Secret
At the start of the battle and whenever the wearer's turn begins, one of the following effects is applied randomly: All allies' ATK increases by 10~20%, all allies' CRIT DMG increases by 12~24%, or all allies' Energy Regeneration Rate increases by 6~12%. The applied effect cannot be identical to the last effect applied, and will replace the previous effect. The applied effect will be removed when the wearer has been knocked down. Effects of the same type cannot be stacked.
Carve the Moon, Weave the Clouds is a decent Light Cone for Yukong, offering random buffs like ATK%, CRIT Rate, or Energy Regen Rate to the team. However, its RNG-based mechanics can make it inconsistent, especially if you're relying on a specific buff during crucial turns. It's still a good supportive option, but not ideal for players who prefer more control over their team’s output.
