2 set: Havoc DMG +10%.
5 set: Havoc DMG +7.5% after releasing Basic Attack or Heavy Attack. This effect stacks up to 4 times, each stack lasts 15s.
Recommended Main Echo for Youhu:
Falacy of No Return / Bell-Borne Geochelone.
Recommended Endgame Stats for Youhu
*Important — CRIT DMG shows 150% and Energy Regen shows 100% when you check in-game. The recommended stats below show how much on top of it you need to get.
ATK: 1700 or more
HP: 14000 or more
DEF: 900 or more
Energy Regen: 60% or more
The amount of ER Youhu needs depends on how much field time you grant her, the Weapon she has equipped, and the main Echo she is using (Bellborne vs Falacy).
As a general rule, 60% is a safe bet to ensure you have smooth access to her Liberation but you can absolutely get away with less and conversely you may want to stack more as there isn't much else for Youhu to allocate her Echo Sub and Main Stats towards other than Energy and boosting her Healing via ATK%.

Best F2P (free-to-play) and other team comps for Youhu in Wuthering Waves
Youhu Coordinated Attack Team
This team makes use of Youhu's outro skill to amplify Zhezhi's Coordinated Attack DMG while also providing heals and attack buffs thanks to her skills and the bonuses from Rejuvenating Glow.
Youhu only works best on teams that has members that utilize coordinated attacks.
YouhuQuick team Guide:
Begin the battle with the Youhu, and start generating pairs of Auspices for special effects in battles. It is important to get four antiques to maximize the effects obtained before swapping out. The goal is to get atleast three, with the final one chosen using her Resonance Liberation.
After Youhu's Resonance Liberation to choose the final antique, swap to Zhezhi with full Concerto Energy to trigger an Intro Skill, providing increased Coordinated Attack DMG.
Utilize Zhezhi's optimal combo to quickly max out her Forte Gauge, then use her Resonance Skill. Follow this with a Basic Attack to summon Phantasmic Imprints, then use her Resonance Skill thrice more.
Max out Concerto Energy, and activate Zhezhi's Resonance Liberation if it is available. Then swap to Jinhsi to get Zhezhi's Outro Skill buff and trigger an Intro Skill.
Use Jinhsi's Overflowing Radiance Resonance Skill upon entry, followed by another regular Resonance Skill activation. Generate enough Incandescence with these skills and Basic Attacks to enter the Incarnation state.
While Incarnation is active, execute Jinhsi's Basic Attack combo until Basic Attack 4, and use her Resonance Skill: Illuminous Epiphany to gain Unison.
Swap back to the Zhezhi, consuming Unison while giving Zhezhi another opportunity for her optimal combo. Swap back to Jinhsi so another combo.
Finally, switch to Youhu and repeat until all enemies have been defeated.
Zhezhi Duo-DPS
Zhezhi and Sanhua will be the DPS’s while Youhu the Support. Zhezhi can buff Sanhua's Glacio DMG and the damage of her Ice explosions with her Outro Skill while Sanhua can also buff Zhezhi's Basic Attack DMG. This symbiotic relationship is what makes this team special.
Youhu will buff Zhezhi's coordinated attacks, which will proc even if Sanhua is the on-field DPS in the rotation.
Quick team Guide:
Begin the battle with the Youhu, and start generating pairs of Auspices for special effects in battles. It is important to get four antiques to maximize the effects obtained before swapping out. The goal is to get atleast three, with the final one chosen using her Resonance Liberation.
Switch to Zhezhi, making sure to do her optimal combo then culminating into her Resonance Liberation. With Youhu's Coordinated Attack Amplification, Zhezhi's coordinated attacks should be able to deal massive damage.
Switch to Sanhua and do her full combo, maximizing Ice Structure damage. Make sure to fill up her Concerto Energy first before switching to Zhezhi. Sanhua will be able to utilize Zhezhi's coordinated attacks that are buffed with Youhu's outro skill.
Once Sanhua's concerto energy is full, swap back to the Youhu so she can perform a free Lucky Draw.

How to Play Youhu
Youhu Combos
Below you can find the optimal rotations for Youhu. Prioritize achieving 100 Concerto as fast as possible and once that condition is fulfilled, focus on maximizing the damage output.
Youhu has no specific set rotation in combat, but here are some tips how to play her:
Keep Resonance Skill: Divination on cooldown at all times and follow it up with “Antique Appraisal“ for burst concerto generation.
Utilize Intro Skill into “Antique appraisal“ to generate the Concerto Energy needed to maintain Outro Buff more easily
Aim to perform Dodge counters followed by “Antique Appraisal“ whenever she has field time and it’s convenient to do so.
When building Concerto Energy for the first use of Outro skill or when missing Concerto Energy to maintain it, use either a full combo of Basic Attacks into a Heavy Attack: Frostfall and “Antique Appraisal" or skip the Basic Attacks by holding Heavy Attack in place of them.
Use Resonance Liberation when available, preferably as the 3rd or 4th “Auspice” to gain a better shot at a beneficial buff.
Use “Poetic Essence“ as soon as you have 4 “Auspice“.
