To make the most of Yuzuha's Core Skill, she requires a minimum of 3000 ATK and 200 Anomaly Mastery. Moreover, to guarantee that she can trigger her EX Special Attack promptly, having enough Energy Regen is crucial. This limits the number of suitable W-Engines you can choose.

Ideally, you ought to seek out W-Engines that enhance ATK, Anomaly Mastery, or Energy Regen. Her signature W-Engine is, so far, the top choice. But if you aren't going to pull for it, workable substitutes are Kaboom the Cannon and Bashful Demon.
