Farming Priorities for Yao Guang
With limited Trailblaze Power, efficiency is key.
Your top priority should be Invasive Clot, as it can already be farmed from Stagnant Shadow in the current version. Finishing this early will save you a significant amount of Trailblaze Power once the patch drops.
At the same time, make sure to stockpile Credits and Tracks of Destiny, since these are universal resources that are always in high demand and never go to waste.
Conclusion
Yao Guang is shaping up to be a strong Physical character, and having her materials ready will give you a massive head start.
