Best Drive Disc sets for Pan Yinhu

Pan Yinhu's best 4-piece set is Astral Voice. Proto Punk and Swing Jazz are the alternatives, in that order.

Astral Voice Best in slot

4-piece: Whenever any squad member enters the field using a Quick Assist, all squad members gain 1 stack of Astral, up to a maximum of 3 stacks, and lasting 15s. Repeated triggers reset the duration. Each stack of Astral increases the DMG dealt by the character entering the field using a Quick Assist by 8%. Passive effects of the same name do not stack

2-piece: ATK +10%. Drops from Monster Duet.
Proto Punk

4-piece: When any squad member triggers a Defensive Assist or Evasive Assist, all squad members deal 15% increased DMG, lasting 10s. Passive effects of the same name do not stack

2-piece: Increases Shield effect by 15%. Drops from Hunter and Beast.
Swing Jazz

4-piece: Launching a Chain Attack or Ultimate increases all squad members' DMG by 15% for 12s. Passive effects of the same name do not stack

2-piece: Energy Regen +20%. Drops from Monster and Weirdo.

2-piece options

For the 2-piece slot the bonus matters, not the set's name. Several sets share the same 2-piece bonus, so Pan Yinhu can take it from whichever one you have spare pieces of:

ATK +10%: any of Hormone Punk or Astral Voice (they give the same bonus)
Energy Regen +20%: any of Swing Jazz or Moonlight Lullaby (they give the same bonus)
Physical DMG +10%: any of Fanged Metal or White Water Ballad (they give the same bonus)

Pan Yinhu main stats: Disk 4, 5 and 6

Disks 1 to 3 always roll HP, ATK and DEF as their main stat, so the choice is on 4, 5 and 6. A > means "better than"; = means the two are about as good.

Slot	Main stat, best first
Disk 4	CRIT Rate = CRIT DMG > ATK%
Disk 5	Physical DMG% > ATK%
Disk 6	ATK%

Pan Yinhu substat priority

Roll for ATK% and Flat ATK first. A disc showing neither of those is rarely worth levelling for Pan Yinhu, whatever else it has.

ATK% (until 3000 ATK)
Flat ATK (until 3000 ATK)
CRIT Rate
CRIT DMG
PEN

Questions

What is the best Drive Disc set for Pan Yinhu?

Astral Voice 4-piece, with Proto Punk or Swing Jazz as the alternatives. For the 2-piece, any set with ATK +10%, Energy Regen +20% or Physical DMG +10% works.

What main stats should Pan Yinhu use on Disk 4, 5 and 6?

Disk 4: CRIT Rate = CRIT DMG > ATK%. Disk 5: Physical DMG% > ATK%. Disk 6: ATK%. Disks 1 to 3 have fixed main stats (HP, ATK and DEF), so only their substats matter.

What substats does Pan Yinhu need?

In priority order: ATK%, Flat ATK, CRIT Rate, CRIT DMG, PEN. The first two are what make a disc worth levelling for Pan Yinhu; the rest are tiebreakers.

Where do I farm Pan Yinhu's Drive Discs?

Astral Voice drops from the Monster Duet Area Patrol stage, alongside Branch & Blade Song. Each run at Lv.60 costs 60 Battery Charge and splits its S-rank discs between the two sets.
