In Honkai Impact 3.6, the new five-star Chang Yue Ye officially debuts. As the core DPS character of the "Memory Battleship" system, her health-based damage mechanics give her extremely high combat potential. If you're looking to bolster your team's DPS and build a Memory Fate lineup, extracting Chang Yue Ye is a highly effective way to directly boost your power. This article will provide a comprehensive guide to Chang Yue Ye, covering her skill mechanics, Star Soul selection, Relic builds, and team synergy, allowing you to fully utilize her potential in the game.

1. Chang Yue Ye Basic Information

Rarity: ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

Fate: Memory

Attribute: Ice

Chang Yue Ye is a powerful area damage dealer, inheriting the core gameplay of the "Memory" Fate and excelling at summoning Memory Spirits in battle. Memory Spirits not only deal damage but also buff or heal allies, making Chang Yue Ye a valuable asset in both the secondary and primary DPS roles. Her role relies on the summoning mechanic, making her ideal for teams built around a Memory Fate system.

II. Chang Yue Ye's Skill Set

1. Basic Attack: From Now on, the Years Are Hazy

Chang Yue Ye's basic attacks deal Ice damage equal to 50% of their health to a single enemy. Her basic attack damage is proportional to her health, meaning increasing her health not only increases her survivability but also directly boosts her damage output.

2. Combat Skill: Daylight Quietly Fades

The core mechanic of this skill is that it consumes 12% of Chang Yue Ye's health to summon the Memory Spirit "Chang Ye," simultaneously increasing the critical damage of all Memory Spirits by 40% for 2 turns. If the Memory Spirit "Chang Ye" is already in play, it will be restored to 50% of its maximum health.

When using this skill, Chang Yue Ye gains 2 [Memory Essence]. While in [Darkest Mystery], she gains an additional 12 [Memory Essence]. If her current health is insufficient, her health will be reduced to 1 when the skill is used.

This mechanic encourages players to summon the Memory Spirit multiple times during battle, achieving high-speed damage through repeated cycles within a short period of time.

3. Finishing Move: Goodnight, Sleepless World

This finishing move summons the Memory Spirit "Long Night," dealing Ice damage equal to 120% of the Memory Spirit's maximum Health to all enemies and causing Chang Yue Ye to enter the [Darkest Mystery] state. During this state, enemies receive 20% increased damage, and the damage dealt by Chang Yue Ye and the Memory Spirit "Long Night" is increased by 100%. Chang Yue Ye is also immune to negative status effects related to control.

In addition, Chang Yue Ye gains 2 [Darkest Mystery] charges. Casting specific skills by the Memory Spirit "Long Night" consumes 1 charge. If the charge is zero at the start of the round, Chang Yue Ye exits this state.

4. Talent: Stay With Me Tonight

This talent mechanic automatically summons the Memory Spirit "Long Night" upon entering battle. Its initial speed is 160 points, and its maximum Health is 100% of Chang Yue Ye's. Whenever Chang Yue Ye or the Memory Spirit's "Long Night" health decreases, the character and the Memory Spirit's critical damage is increased by 60% for 2 turns, and Memory Spirit gains 2 points of [Memory Quality].

When [Memory Quality] reaches 16 or higher, the character becomes immune to negative status effects related to control, and can trigger the Memory Spirit's "Long Night" to immediately act. This mechanic requires the Memory Spirit to cast a skill before it can be triggered again, emphasizing the importance of skill rotation and action turns.

5. Secret Technique: May Cold Rain Fall

At the start of the next battle, this secret technique grants all Memory Spirits a critical damage boost equivalent to the skill's effect, and also gains 2 points of [Memory Quality], providing a stable damage bonus at the start of the battle.

III. Skill Mechanics Analysis

Summoning Mechanic: Chang Yue Ye summons Memory Spirits by consuming health points. Each summon fully restores the character's health, creating a high-frequency damage cycle.

Dual Target Attack: Memory Spirit can simultaneously lock onto two enemies for attack, making it the first character in the game to achieve dual-target damage through a summon.

Skill Growth: Memory Spirit has the potential for enhancement, and future stats and mechanic upgrades may be available to enhance the character's long-term competitiveness.

Team Synergy Bonus: Skill effects increase based on the number of allies on the field, encouraging a fully staffed team of summons and highly compatible with characters with a "Memory" destiny.

Action Turn Requirement: Frequent action turns ensure the Memory Spirit's survival and stable damage output, creating synergy with acceleration-focused support characters (such as Sirenni and Sandrae).

Skill Cycle Mode

Use a combat skill to summon a Memory Spirit → Memory Spirit attacks → Memory Spirit disappears, Changyue Ye recovers health → Summon again

Damage output depends on summon frequency and character speed. The higher the speed, the smoother the skill cycle and the more stable the damage output.

IV. Star Soul Selection

Sleep, long nights bring dreams

The fewer enemies on the field, the higher the damage multiplier inflicted by the Memory Spirit: 120% for 4 or more enemies, 125% for 3 enemies, 130% for 2 enemies, and 150% for 1 enemy.

Listen to the whispers of the sleeping soul.

Each time you gain [Memory], you gain an additional 2 points, and when you cast a finishing move, you gain an additional 2 points of [Darkest Mystery] charge.

Don't fear, the nightmare is over.

Combat Skill Level +2 (max. 15), Basic Attack +1 (max. 10), Memory Talent +1 (max. 10).
