What to verify
Before heavy pre-farm, confirm the exact boss-drop and shared-upgrade path that matters most for Yangyang: Xuanling in Version 3.5 Phase 1.
Why this matters now
This page should keep your material plan aligned with Version 3.5 Phase 1, while still protecting resources you may need for Version 3.5 Phase 2.
What you can safely do now
Use this page to pre-plan stamina around Version 3.5 Phase 1. Safe work usually means shared credits, common field drops, and broad upgrade routes that still help even if Yangyang: Xuanling changes slightly at live confirmation.
What should wait
Leave rare boss routing, weekly lock-ins, and one-character-only farming until Yangyang: Xuanling is fully confirmed in-game. That matters even more if you may switch resources toward Suisui, Aemeath in Version 3.5 Phase 2.
Where this page sits
Use this page after the Yangyang: Xuanling guide hub when the question has narrowed to materials, builds, or team comps. From there, jump to the sibling page only if you need the next detail.
What to compare before locking
Before heavy stamina spending, compare Yangyang: Xuanling against the still competing needs of Suisui, Aemeath. Keep the page clear about what is safe now and what should wait.
Yangyang: Xuanling-specific planning notes
Treat Yangyang: Xuanling as a live-banner decision. If Yangyang: Xuanling is the reason to spend in Version 3.5 Phase 1, this page should keep you focused on low-risk prep and immediate usability instead of overbuilding for hypothetical later shifts.
If Yangyang: Xuanling is only a side option
If Yangyang: Xuanling is not the main reason you are spending, compare this route against Version 3.5 Phase 2 before locking too much stamina, gear, or pity pressure into one live cycle.
Yangyang: Xuanling scenario guide
| If this is you | Best move | Why |
|---|---|---|
| You want the safest prep path | Split farming into low-risk and high-risk buckets | That keeps your stamina plan useful even if your pull decision changes. |
| You do not want to waste stamina | Start with shared stock first | Broadly reusable prep gives you a safer landing than locking rare routes too early. |
| You are comparing across phases | Delay route-locked farming | Keep comparing against Version 3.5 Phase 2 before converting soft prep into a full commitment. |
Yangyang: Xuanling materials playbook

|---|---|---|
| Safe bucket | Credits, common drops, broad upgrade stock | These are the least risky ways to prep while Yangyang: Xuanling is already relevant in the live phase. |

| Do-not-overfarm bucket | One-character-only routes with no overlap | These are the first places where players waste stamina if they force the decision too early. |

| Type | Meaning | Best use |
|---|---|---|
