Best Jianxin Build

The most important part for to build character in Wuthering Waves is picking the best echo with the best sub stats even though it random, but having all the correct Echo with the right sub stats will boost your character even more.

After the echo, you need to pick the weapon which will boost the Jianxin stats even more however the weapon doesn't seems to hard to pick.

Lastly, when the character (Jianxin) is strong enough as an individual you need to have a proper team for the character, in this case you need to have Main DPS and Support or Main DPS, Sub-DPS and use Jianxin as a support.

Best Jianxin Echo Sets

Sonata Effect	Sierra Gale 5 Piece
Cost Pattern	4 3 3 1 1
4 Cost [Main Stats]	Feilian Beringal [CRIT Rate or CRIT DMG]
3 Cost [Main Stats]	Any Aero Echo [Aero DMG Bonus or Energy Regen]
1 Cost [Main Stats]	Any Aero Echo [ATK]

This is the strongest echo set that you can possibly build for Jianxin. It helps boost the character stats such as Crit Rate or Crit DMG, boost Aero DMG Bonus, Energy Regen, and raw ATK damage. However, this is not enough because more power is coming from the Sub stats of these echo.

Best Echo Sub Stats

In Wuthering Waves, all echo Sub Stats are all random so when you tune the echo that we recommended you will boost your character to another level. 

Here are our recommendation Sub Stats that you should get for your echo:

Outside of these 5 sub stats if you tune the echo and get the other sub stats likes Resonance Skill DMG Bonus, DEF, or HP, you can choose to use it temporarily but you can still try to find another echo that has better sub stats.

Alternative Sonata Effect

We recommend 5 Piece Sierra Gale  sonata effect because it improve her DMG when using intro skill. However if you don't like this sonata effect, you can try these alternative effect out:

Sierra Gale + Moonlit Clouds

3x Sierra Gale

2x Moonlit Clouds

This sonata effect require you to use 3 piece Sierra Gale preferably (1 Cost 4 and 2 Cost 3) then save both Cost 1 echo for moonlit clouds. This sonata effect will boost your Aero DMG as well as your Energy Regen.

Tips: You can readjust the echo cost slots but make sure you maintain the two Aero DMG Bonus for better Jianxin damage scale.

5x Moonlit Clouds

x5 Moonlit Clouds

This sonata effect on the other hand is sole focus on boosting the Jianxin energy regen so that your whole team rotation is very much better and faster but at the same time you will sacrifice any extra damage boost.

Tips: Keep using the same main stats and sub stats recommended but without having any Sierra gale echo element in the echo set.

Best Jianxin Weapons

1. Abyss Surges	This is the best Gauntlet to use for boosting Jianxin's energy Regen and make her skill stronger. Ascension 1: Increases Energy Regen by 12.8%. When hitting a target with Resonance Skill, increases Basic Attack DMG Bonus by 10%, lasting for 8. When hitting a target with Basic Attacks, increases Resonance Skill DMG Bonus by 10%, lasting for 8s.
2. Marcato	Marcato is also the best weapon that you can use on Jianxin to make the character more lethal as well as better energy regen. Ascension 1: When Resonance Skill is released, restores Concerto Energy by 8. This effect can be triggered 1 time every 20s.
3. Stonard	Stonard is the another great weapon that make Jianxin Skill and ultimate stronger. Ascension 1: When Resonance Skill is released, increases the caster's Resonance Liberation DMG Bonus by 18%, lasting for 15s.
4. Gauntlets of Night	This is a basic weapon that Jianxin should use in the early phase of the game. Boosting damage can always come in handy. Ascension 1: When Intro Skill is released, increases ATK by 8%, lasting for 10s.
5. Originite: Type IV	Another weapon that is also good for Jianxin early phase game which helps restore her health after basic attacks. Ascension 1: When hitting a target with Basic Attacks, restores HP by 0.5%. This effect can be triggered 1 time(s) every 3s.

Abyss Surge is by far the best weapon for Jianxin to use if you want to main this character because its the most fit in term of energy regen, damage boost, skill boost, and more.

Between Marcato and Stonard is sort of personal preference that you can pick and use to improve Jianxin overall performance.

Best Jianxin Teams

Here is where you can find all the team build that Jianxin fit well as a Sub DPS and Support.

Sub DPS Jianxin Team

Any main DPS

Jianxin

Verina / Baizhi

In this team build Jianxin is a Sub-DPS that use to quick swap into your main DPS, she will also provide a very powerful AoE damage that gather all enemies into one spot so the main DPS can output all that damage into all the enemies.

Character Swap Order

Use Jianxin's Resonance liberation to gather the enemy into one place then switch to your main DPS to deal nuke damage.

This swap order is very easy to achieve thanks to Jianxin ability to gain quick forte circuit allows to swap back to your main DPS character intro skill.

Support Jianxin Team

Any main DPS

Any Sub-DPS

Jianxin

For this team, we want the team to output insanely high damage with our main and sub DPS, so we use Jianxin as support to provide shield and gather the enemy into one place for the main and sub DPS to do their thing.

Character Swap Order

In this rotation, you only need Jianxin to dash out her combo then instantly swap to your Sub-DPS or Main-DPS to dash out the damage instead, the swap back to her when you need another shield. You just need to use this smartly to avoid getting hit by the boss.

Jianxin Forte Priority

Here is our recommend order for you to upgrade Jianxin forte:

Resonance Liberation --> Resonance Skill --> Forte Circuit --> Intro Skill --> Normal Attack.

Eventually you will upgrade all the forte the longer you play the character, but if you don't want to waste a lot of material on upgrading material in the early game you should prioritize like our we recommend.

The reason we want to prioritize Resonance Liberation as the first upgrade is because we know that Jianxin ultimate is insanely powerful so having extra explosion damage is very highly recommended.

The next upgrade after Jianxin ultimate is her Resonance skill because her Chi counter and Chi parry is very essential during boss fight.

After that you can then proceed to upgrade Forte Circuit, Intro Skill, and Normal Attack. You can change the order depend on how you want to play Jianxin but Resonance Liberation and Skill are the most priority.

Jianxin Resonance Chain Priority

If the player want to use Jianxin as the Sub DPS we suggested you to get S4 so that you deal very big continuous damage during her Chi Spiral and Ultimate.

For the S2 and S6, its very vary depend on your playstyle, if you somehow want to turn Jianxin into main DPS you can activate them up to S6. 

Regarding S2, it is good for Jianxin support role since you will be able to recover energy quite fast thanks to extra resonance skill.

Combo allows your character to output heavier or higher damage compare to normal basic attack and the longer the combo chain the better the damage output and here are all the Jianxin Combo:

Resonance Liberation + Heavy Attack

This is one of the easiest combo to do with Jianxin, by disabling enemies with her Ultimate then holding heavy attack to deal AOE damage as well as shielding her and lastly use echo to deal extra damage.

Resonance Skill + Heavy Attack

This combo will increase Jianxin forte bar extremely quick so that you can use her full heavy attack to grant shield and extra damage boost.
