Best Drive Disc sets for Ye Shunguang

Ye Shunguang's 4-piece set is White Water Ballad. No other 4-piece set is recommended, so there is no substitute worth farming.

White Water Ballad Best in slot

4-piece: When the equipper is within any Ether Veil, their CRIT Rate increases by 10%. After leaving the Ether Veil, this buff remains for 15s. If the equipper is an Attack character, activating an Ether Veil or extending an Ether Veil's duration increases their CRIT Rate by 10% and ATK by 10% for 30s. Repeated triggers reset the duration

2-piece: Physical DMG +10%. Drops from Deceits and Bulwarks.

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 Ye Shunguang can take it from whichever one you have spare pieces of:

CRIT DMG +16%: Branch & Blade Song
PEN Ratio +8%: Puffer Electro
ATK +10%: any of Hormone Punk or Astral Voice (they give the same bonus)
Physical DMG +10%: any of Fanged Metal or White Water Ballad (they give the same bonus)

Ye Shunguang 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	ATK% > CRIT DMG
Disk 5	PEN Ratio = ATK%
Disk 6	ATK%

Ye Shunguang substat priority

Roll for CRIT DMG and CRIT Rate first. A disc showing neither of those is rarely worth levelling for Ye Shunguang, whatever else it has.

Building more than one agent? The Area Patrol Recommender ranks every stage for your whole team at once, and the Drive Disc Stat Guide says which drops to keep while you farm.

Ye Shunguang W-Engine and skill priority

Cloudcleave Radiance S-rank, CRIT DMG sub-stat

Her signature needs no special setup: every Enlightened Mind State counts as an Ether Veil activation, so the conditional DMG Bonus and CRIT DMG stay up permanently. Add a flat 20% Physical RES shred (even better against Physical-neutral enemies) and a higher Base ATK than most engines, and it is the undisputed best.
