somehow this ended up being one of my most detailed/longest guides... hope u guys enjoy the detail (timestamps are included as always). & regarding her power level, checkout my previous video -> kzfaq.info/get/bejne/pZ2RisSlzsjLoYE.html edit: trimmed 2s of vid, in case anyone noticed @ 3:31 this took so long... enjoy :D

Dehya really gives jump cancelling a whole new meaning

Literally, everything about this character from her character design to her animations to her voice lines screams power. Was hyped about her from when she was teased in the sumeru trailer and now she has the damage of a duck, almost as if her talents don't carry the weight as expected. Would still play her when i lose a 50/50 to her purely because i like the character itself.

Thank you Zy0x for making this Dehya guide! Now my Dehya burst finally works with xingqui, Yelan, and Beidou's off-field bursts! Truly one of the guides of all time! 😊

3:32 PSA: This does NOT let her take less damage while using her burst since it only reduces the DOT from her skill and she does not have her skill during her burst

The thing about Hu Tao and Dehya is that if you jump, their teams get higher damage.

Thank you zyonix… Before this guide i was stuck at floor 3 unable to clear and then i pulled dehya but she did no damage and i didnt know how to build her after this guide i can confidently say nothing has changed

She's definitely the strongest 5 star Pyro Claymore that has a defensive utility wow so strong

Actually i created one more team. Its Dehya - Yelan - Raiden - Benett. This is exploration team, where yelan and raiden can kill anything and dehya is here to look pretty + deal emotional damage by punching poor defensless hilichurls

This guide really helped me. First i was kind of lost on what to do with her but now that i have her c6 and i followed your guide i can finally kill timmie's birds with dehya in one burst rotation

For anyone wondering why jumping cancels her burst, its basically bc her burst is a continous animation. What does that mean? Because zyox mentioned in the video that she will punch even when you’re not pressing anything, it’s an automatic animation. It’s essentially similar in a way to jump cancelling for hu tao where when you are continuously charged attacked, you jump to stop the charging animation and basically jump to stop all combat animations. Same goes for dehya

Personally I wasn't looking forward for Dehya however I am still sad how things turned out with her. It also scares me that any teased charachter even if they played a big part in the story can be just tossed into standard and made barely usable. I honestly feel sorry for everyone who's been saving for her for months. Also harrassing tcs like Zy0x and Zajeff for saying that she isn't a good option is honestly pathetic and is absolutely not what they deserve for their hard work to help other players.

A few things i wanna mention that you missed out on in the guide: -while jumping completely cancels her burst, it should be noted that if you dash+jump it will instead skip you to the final kick of your burst rather than canceling the entire animation. This can be good for not punching for too long if its not necessary, still being able to get out a final bigger hit of dmg before having to dodge an attack that might be deadly, or to get the vaped kick faster if ur playing hypercarry dehya as her final kick has its own ICD so even if your punch just vaped the kick still will right after -for burgeon teams if you still reeeally want to use her there, the new event claymore is actually the best EM claymore now as its passive proc gives more total EM than bloodtainted greatsword -her c4 if you land all your punches effectively makes her 70 cost bursts a 55 cost as it restores 15 energy(9 punches+final kick giving 1.5 energy each) However you didnt mention that the energy restoration also counts torwards the extra punches at c6. Witu c6 you can get usually 15 or 16 punches+final kick so your 70 cost burst is now effectively about 45 cost as you can restore up to 24 or 25ish energy from her burst. -finally for some more interesting team comps: ayato, nilou, and ganyu can technically work well with her if you want to make her a dps as their bursts(and nilous e ring rather than her burst) combined with an anemo characters infusion gives enough hydro or cryo to properly vape/melt all her punches. It can be a bit too tight with mona at c5 and under and monas burst just straight up doesnt last long enough at c6 Dehya. You also get some more overall dmg on the team from ayato or ganyu contributing both nice off field dmg as well as a few attacks while you wait for stuff to come off cooldown.

I’ll never forgive them for what they did to dehya 💔

Note her E will only proc on one enemy in the field. There is a shared cooldown for all enemies. So if you have 2 enemies in the field on opposite sides, you can only damage one of them per 2.5s. Honestly the least we should’ve got was that for quadratic scaling but that’s the way it goes I guess

When Zy0x doesn't write "Dehya is insane!" in the thumbnail, you know something's up (or down, in this case)

Literally, thanks alot for doing the guide, been loking forward for dehya even if she aint to good, so this helped alot, thank you!

I've been using her with Barbara fischel and shenhe and I've been loving this team. Just constantly procing overload, vaporize, superconduct, electrocute and melt all at once

I recommend Dehya with 4pcs Ocean-Hued Clam Don't need skill, don't need burst, don't need attack Only stand menacingly and watch enemies dies

The secret about dehya is that shes made for end game players with tons of overpowered characters like eula and yelan, because she makes the game actually challenging again 😉

dehya is truly one of the characters that grinds my gears

Overburn with Raiden and Nahida works really well, too. If you have full EM Raiden, Dehya and Nahida can comfortably keep up the burning aura so that Raiden will constantly proc overloads. Your fourth character is completely flex, but a vv shredder for Pyro damage is nice. Also, you can technically put Nahida on Crimson Witch in this team, because burning scales with the EM of the trigger, so Nahida’s damage is much higher this way. Another team is a burn melt Rosaria. Same setup, with Nahida and Dehya, and then Rosaria can melt her entire kit, afk. You could use vv shred for cryo, or use Bennett. It’s really fun to watch enemies burn, then melt, without having to do much.

Been waiting for dehya guide! Will build her soon!

She works really well as a pyro resonance !

I'm living on that Future Impact Hopium. We were there, 3000 years ago when Zhongli was also extremely scuffed on release. That being said, thank you for this guide. Honestly as bad as she seems, I'm actually having quite a blast with her. I don't care much for meta since it is a single player game with a few co-op aspects. The event Multiplayer stuff isn't even pvp.

Truly one of the guides of all time

Nice zyox. Been waiting your video to decide which types should i build her.

First step to building her is pressing L and switching her with xiangling

Still rather baffling how HoYo has treated Dehya. Then again, it wouldn't be HoYo if they didn't do something like this once in a while. 😭 Either way, bless you and all others for making guides on Dehya so those who do have her can at least attempt to make the best out of her.

Hoyo really tried to cook up a 5* meal with Dehya only to serve it raw💀

damn that Xinyan in my inventory looking real shiny right about now

she don't need a guide, she needs a buff😂

I don't understand how some people are so adamant that Dehya was not designed to be a DPS When every sign is pointing to that being what she was designed to do. Signature weapon DPS focused, Constellations DPS focused, her ENTIRE BURST DPS focused. The only supportive utility she has is in her skill and even that isn't very effective when so many other characters are better at it while offering more to the team. Let's say she was a support, then HYV made a bad one because her kit, cons, and weapon aren't geared that way. What they made was a bad DPS but decided not to directly advertise her that way so they could have the benefit of the doubt on why her damage is so bad. But, of course, pull whoever you want. and if you don't care about neta, this wouldn't' matter to you

building dehya is so easy. Just get c6r5 and c6r5 bennett kazuha. And boom. Now you do the same amount of dmg as a c1 hu tao with r5dragon bane

Regarding her teams, I wonder how well she'll work in a Sunfire variation featuring Bennett, Jean, Dehya and any cryo/hydro dps, such as Ayato.

Thx u Zy0x for make the best background video to read this comment section :balls: definitelly one of the best content i have seen in your videos :ok:

As a Dehya main this video is very usefull, I will need any help I can get I am unwell 😎

She is literally the first character where it feels like it's either c6 or nothing.

11 minutes through the video and i just realized that im watching a zy0nixxx dehya guide, truly one of the calmest and the most collected strimmers of all time, definitely one of the people.

Guess who got hot cat lady instead of short green vegetable. 🙂

I don't believe anyone in several videos I've watched has mentioned it so, Dehya can dash during her burst and it slows/pauses her attacking so you can hit enemies from farther away or target/wait for certain elemental reactions. It makes it feel like you have control over her burst and feels way less clunky in my opinion. I run her with Nahida, Kuki, and Candace.

I think she might be used in "mono geo" with Itto, Gorou and Albedo. She may free the spot for Zhongli for the second team. I'm gonna use her like that if I ever lose 50/50 to her

Thank you ! I have been looking for a good deyha guide and this really helped ! Thanks

Really good video, the Dehya enjoyers will love her.

If you did this unit, now you HAVE to make a xinyan guide

Wow, such an amazing character guide! I'm amazed by it!

Wow thanks dude awesome guide let me check out your twitch might learn more from them

Got spooked by her while pulling for Eula, thanks for this, hopefully she can be useful in archon quests at least.

Thanks for the guide. Now we just need to keep pushing Hoyo to buff her and fix all the dumb stuff like jumping cancelling her burst and the targeting failing half the time.

Thank you! I pulled for her day one but I wasn't sure how to build her.

what do you think about pairing her with Raiden in place of XL or totally different setup? Raiden would solve the energy gain problem and you can rotate Raiden and Dehay burst

dehya will be a mainstay in my tighnari burning comp!

Just got this queen today from standard banner by accident. It's a damn shame she isn't stronger because she is easily the coolest looking character in the game in my opinion

Guys don't forget about that her burst works with raiden's elemental skill

You can see that the triggered pyro attack hits the ruinguard around the upper chest area, so the fire explosion wont reach the cores, not even close.

the fact that i dont have mona despite playing since day 1, i guess mono pyro but thank you very much on giving this guide zy0x! thank you for helping us dehya havers get a chance to properly utilize her

Truly one of the guides of all time. Thank you Zyonix.

I got her and c5 chevreuse instead of the electro mami 😢

Nice, look what a full team can do. Sometimes, i often forget that a party has 3 other character slots, hahahaha, but dehya really utilizes her teammates, which is after all the reason we have parties of 4, so i appreciate dehya for reminding me of this

I made dehya with Crimson witch, matched her with Raiden, Barbara and Bennet. They do overload and vaporize on dehya's burst. Not too big on numbers but it's still viable as well imo.

Thanks...Dehya for being the 4th member of my team to make it complete and also maybe just standing there menacingly...let the other 3 members get the job done 😊

I know there's a lot of negativity surrounding her and I've seen way too many comments here joking about her meta viability but I do want to thank you for making a serious guide about her. My reasons for pulling any character are mainly design and story with no regard for meta. I am a ningguang and Lisa user lol. So I pull a character and then look for ways to try and use them. Almost any other guide basically goes "don't pull for her" which is completely useless for me. So this guide was perfect for me.

Ty for all Ur tips for dehya no have any idea how do the Best for her

Hello! I want to say, I have Dehya and I have build her up and now she is my No.1 fighter for most of my missions. Plus she looks sexy in her outfit! 😊

I know we all agree that dehya is suboptimal at best. The main question that lingers is why is she this weak? What possible benefit does this bring for mihoyo logically speaking?

Watching this video has made me realise how bad i have judged a character. It is my fault, as i shouldn't have listened to the "Meta" fanbase about how bad a character performs. They were wrong, and i was wrong to believe them. This has made me realise that perhaps... Perhaps i treated Xinyan a bit too harshly, I'm sorry xinyan, you aren't that bad now that i look at dehya.

i use dehya and if yall got favonius greatsword. use it. its really good if ur using her for support

watch out for food buffs zyox

Thank you mr Zy0x! Thanks to your guide, my Dehya actually deals damage now. I mean she kinda turned into a 4 star pyro polearm user, but thats totally fine!

truly one of the guides of all time

Thank you for this guide! I was so hyped for her and am quite disappointed for her nerf. I really hope what some people say about her nerf being linked to her Chinese popularity and linked to her skin color isn‘t true but I guess we‘ll have to wait for future tan characters and hope they don‘t get the same treatment. She‘s definitely not the strongest right now but at least she can clear abyss with her mono pyro team, even if her team does most of the damage. At this point I‘m just glad she can parttake since she‘s such a cool character to have around.

I tested her out and found out that using her skill once then her burst pauses the 2.5 sec timer and then you can use the skill again(you must use net burst before 2.5 seconds for this to work and use her skill again before the timer finishes also the timer unpauses when the burst is finished(I think this is a glitch but I just wanted to put it out there)

I didn't even need her to be the best character in terms of DPS or support. I just needed her to be decently functional. The fact that she's barely useable for anything in the game besides my looking pretty in my Teapot, breaks my heart. But regardless of all the weirdness and straight-up frustrating game design surrounding her kit, thank you for making this guide. I'm sure it took a lot of testing and disappointment on your end.

Dehya is so strong im suprise they did not give her -100% crit rate to balance her pout like kokomi.

one of the zyox guides of all time

Pulled her at 20 pity. Having fun trying to make her work😁

As a free to play I’m still pulling for her. I think she’s pretty. ☺️

i still have no regrets getting her to c6r2 and triple crowned. but i will be laughing my ass off if she becomes a powerhouse later

Still gonna go for her because her animations are cool and who knows maybe she will get a buff

I love you Zy0x I Almost Use All Of Your Builds, They Work Really Well! Just one thing, could you do cyno? Thanks 😊

Thank you for the updated xinyan guide Mr Zy0x, me as a xinyan main may devour the abyss now

I hate the fact that when you jump during her burst, it cancels her burst. Who thought of this in Hoyoverse, I hope your charger only works in a certain angle

Hey, any tips on using Dehya to beat the "Ellin, the Wannabe Knight" daily commission? I'm struggling to destroy all the training dummies in 2 seconds with her...

I was real exitecd for dehya but i just got her weapon (beacause its a good one) and will probably wait to get her thru standard banner/ loosing 50/50s

if her mitigation would be a lot higher so you wouldn't need to bring a healer or if she would heal everyone, then I'd be less disappointed. 😅

Dehya the first ever 3 star character in the game!

i cant wait to post my dehya showcase on TikTok!

Hey Zyox, can you please create a team comp that can clear the Abyss? I've been struggling with it. I have well built characters but don't know how to use them properly.

8:00 "Genuinely there are ways to use her, like putting her into a team with *insert 3 s-tier characters*" I love the passive aggressiveness of that statement. I still hope that MiHoyo will at least tweak the damage numbers at bit if enough people keep complaining. My dream would obviously be something more of a rework to a sort of pyro albedo, so she can take that niche of a not burst reliant off field pyro unit, but yeah...

Dehya is truly one (1) of the characters of all time AWARE

I got her at 81 pity .....as a f2p on furina banner......just building her because she looks good

Sunfire Dehya (Dehya, Mona, jean, Bennet) is actually an insanely fun team comp

It’s the way I don’t even have Dehya but I’m still watching cause I need that zy0x content

Wow thank you so much for the Dehya guide Zy0x! Who knew that all you had to do to make Dehya viable is to press L and swap her with Xiangling! I knew I could count on the tallest, most handsome and charismatic streamer ever to create such a flawless gameplay guide!

By far the best in-deapth guide to Dehya and most detailed yet. I just hate how Hoyoverse messed up her kit, on an exytemely good character design, despite her lack of damage and good kit, I still use her because of her design and Dehya herself. I just hope Mihoyo would start listening to players and give her a buff, enough to satisfy everyone who were disappointed really.

Hey! I figured out a decent team for Deyha. Surcose is the key. Literally! Deyha, Mona,Surcose, and Layla. Build Surcose on EM. It's pretty fun. I've been doing this, and Deyha's damage is about 66k to 32k. It's very fun comp. I highly recommend it. Build all supports on ER.

this sure is one of the character guides of all time by one of the streamers of all time

Her Banner gave me an early guaranteed (37) for my future Kazuha C3 so thanks Dehya 🤗 You'll be the reason why i can eventually C6 him. Much appreciated.

Weird question but since she primarily does physical would song of broken pines be any good on her? It's my only 5 star claymore and I awkwardly don't have eula.

My story about me getting dehya: First of all, I had just gotten my Wi-Fi back after I had moved my house, I played on a ps4 and I waited for the 3.5 update to load, I wanted yelan so badly but unfortunately her banner ended when I was moving to a new house. I then logged into my genshin account and I remembered I was close to pity but I didn’t know the exact number. I got all of my freemogems and went on the wishing screen. I really wanted to have cyno and even did a ritual for him to come home, I was not guaranteed because I got nahida then raiden right after. Little did I know I was in for the SHOCK of my god damn life. I done a ten pull and it was a five star. I was MANIFESTING the luck to get cyno, I thought I would get him, but then, I saw her, the dreaded red cat woman, appear on my screen. I was devestated, I didn’t know what I should react with. Was I happy or sad? I couldn’t answer my own question. I told my sister who I shared the account with, and she had the same reaction as me, i thought it couldn’t be even more bad than that, but I was wrong, SO WRONG. My older sister saw dehya’s design, dehyas 🫣bouncing like gelatinous balloons in the wind. She then said that I was NOT ALLOWED TO PLAY HER. She said if my mother were to see dehyas honkers, she would be devastated seeing me watch an animated pixel woman’s honkers on the tv. I sat there in despair, in shock. I was then diagnosed with depression the very same day. I had ruined my genshin account. Thank you for listening to my English gcse! 😊
