How to Build Lynette

Lynette can be built on either Elemental Mastery or Anemo DMG and CRIT stats. Elemental Mastery will increase her Swirl DMG, while Anemo DMG and CRIT will focus on her personal DMG.

Lynette can use the Viridescent Venerer set to shred Enemy RES. Lynette can also use the Noblesse Oblige or the Emblem of Severed Fate to increase her Elemental Burst DMG.

Lynette Sub DPS Builds

Swirl Debuffer

Best Weapon	Freedom-Sworn
Replacement Weapons	1. Xiphos' Moonlight 2. Favonius Sword 3. Iron Sting 4. Toukabou Shigure
Best Artifacts	Viridescent Venerer x4
Artifact Main Stats	Sands: Elemental Mastery or Energy Recharge
	Goblet: Elemental Mastery or Anemo DMG Bonus
	Circlet: Elemental Mastery or CRIT Rate/DMG
Artifact Sub Stats	Elemental Mastery, Energy Recharge, CRIT Rate, CRIT DMG, ATK%, HP%

The Viridescent Venerer debuffer build is best for Lynette to increase team damage for Pyro, Cryo, Electro, or Hydro parties. If you have a DPS manning the front lines and want to increase their DMG, this build is for you.

Pumping Lynette full of Elemental Mastery is key for this build. Not only will it maximize her Swirl DMG, but also provide Elemental buffs to your other party members using this set!

Burst Damage

Best Weapon	Primordial Jade Cutter
Replacement Weapons	1. Freedom-Sworn 2. Iron Sting 3. Wolf-Fang 4. Favonius Sword
Best Artifacts	Noblesse Oblige x4 or Emblem of Severed Fate x4
Artifact Main Stats	Sands: Energy Recharge or Elemental Mastery
	Goblet: Anemo DMG Bonus or Elemental Mastery
	Circlet: CRIT Rate/DMG or Elemental Mastery
Artifact Sub Stats	Elemental Mastery, Energy Recharge, CRIT Rate, CRIT DMG, ATK%, HP%

Lynette's strongest asset is her Elemental Burst, which is able to deal a summative amount of DMG even when she's off the field. You may use Viridescent Venerer if you wish to promote team damage more than her personal damage.

Should you wish to have Lynette deal high DMG without relying on elemental absorption, it would be best to focus on ATK and CRIT stats and weapons and aim for Elemental Mastery only as a substat.

Lynette Talent Priority

1st	2nd	3rd
Elemental Burst	Elemental Skill	Normal Attack

Lynette's Elemental Burst is her crowning glory, with a flashy Elemental Skill capable of covering a lot of ground as quickly as possible.

The Bogglecat Box she summons through her Burst will stay on the field even if she leaves, which makes her perfect for coordinating attacks with other party members and eliminating waves of enemies in the shortest amount of time.

Lynette Best Team Comps

Lynette Rainbow-Swirl Team

Main-DPS	Sub-DPS	Sub-DPS	Support
Lynette	Xiangling	Ganyu	Kokomi

This Rainbow-Swirl team maximizes Lynette's first ascension passive, and her Elemental Burst to take your elemental damage to the next level! And being an Anemo character, she can easily Swirl these elements to ensure consistent damage in a massive AoE.

Lynette acts as the main DPS of the team, while Xiangling and Ganyu serve as the Sub-DPS who can apply their corresponding elements easily. Kokomi provides top-tier sustain thru her heals, as well as excellent Hydro application for the team!

Lynette Perma-Freeze Team

Main-DPS	Sub-DPS	Sub-DPS	Support
Ayato	Lynette	Ganyu	Kokomi

This Perma-Freeze team utilizes Lynette's excellent off-field potential, which converts her into an Anemo-driver who constantly Swirls Hydro or Cryo, to set an excellent field for Freeze.

Since Ayato and Ganyu already make for an awesome Freeze duo, Lynette helps them increase the uptime of either of their skills thru Swirl to maximize their damage. Kokomi, on the other hand, provides sustain, and an additional off-field Hydro applicator!

Lynette Vape-Team

Main-DPS	Sub-DPS	Sub-DPS	Support
Hu Tao	Yelan	Lynette	Zhongli

Although this Vape-team hinges on Lynette's excellent potential in elemental reaction teams, Hu Tao acts as the main-DPS who consistently triggers Vaporize with Yelan. Zhongli ensures Hu Tao stays alive throughout the rotation, while Lynette buffs elemental DMG!

Just like the Rainbow-Swirl team, this team-comp also maximizes Lynette's first ascension passive and burst, but keep in mind that this team's caveat is that it works better against single-enemies than with mobs!

Lynette Best Constellations

Felis Alba

Constellation and Effects

	Lynette's Constellations
C1	A Cold Blade Like a Shadow When Enigamitc Feint's Enigma Thrust hits an opponent with Shadowsign, a vortex will be created at that opponent's position that will pull nearby opponents in.
C2	Endless Mysteries Whenever the Bogglecat Box summoned by Magic Trick: Astonishing Shift fires a Vivid Shot, it will fire an extra Vivid Shot.
C3	Cognition-Inverting Gaze Increases the Level of Magic Trick: Astonishing Shift by 3. Maximum upgrade level is 15.
C4	Tacit Coordination Increases Enigmatic Feint's charges by 1.
C5	Obscuring Ambiguity Increases the Level of Enigmatic Feint by 3. Maximum upgrade level is 15.
C6	Watchful Eye When Lynette uses Enigmatic Feint's Enigma Thrust, she will gain an Anemo Infusion and 20% Anemo DMG Bonus for 6s.

Best Constellations Rating and Explanation

	Rating	Constellation Effect / Merits
C2	★★☆	• Extra Vivid Shots for Elemental Burst's Bogglecat Box increase frequency of Swirls.
C4	★★☆	• An additional charge for Lynette's Elemental Skill.
C6	★★★	• Anemo Infusion after Elemental Skill.

Performs Better at Higher Constellations

Lynette has decent DMG scaling and will be able to provide ample contribution to the team's overall DMG output. However, she performs significantly better with her constellations active.

Anemo Infusion at C6

Should you be lucky enough to get Lynette to C6, she will be a viable option as a main Anemo DPS and open up more options for her builds, as her C6 will give her weapon an Anemo Infusion after every use of her Elemental Skill.

Is Lynette Good?

Makes for Good Anemo Support

Lynette will highly likely be your first character from Fontaine as she can be acquired for free once you reach Adventure Rank 25. Her Elemental Skill is akin to that of Yelan's, where she enters an agile state and moves swiftly around the battlefield.

Apart from that, her Elemental Burst coordinates well with the attacks of other party members, and is extremely useful for crowd control situations. If diversity is the name of your game, then Lynette is very much worth the pull!

Shines in Diverse Teams

Based on her talents and passives, Lynette shines bright in elementally diverse teams, being able to carry those elements and throw them all over the battlefield! It's best to keep elemental absorption in mind if you wish to take advantage of this!

How to Use Lynette

Elemental Skill - Eigmatic Feint

Lynette brandishes her sword towards an enemy which deals Anemo DMG, and heals her when it hits. Lynette's Elemental Skill have two different ways to toggle, and whether the skill is pressed or held, different effects will occur!

Press Mode

During the press mode, Lynette simply strikes an enemy using her Enigma Thrust.

Hold Mode

During the hold mode, Lynette will enter a high-speed Pilfering Shadow state, and will apply a Shadowsign mark to a nearby enemy. When Lynette exits this mode, she quickly strikes the marked enemy with an Enigma Thrust.

Upon usage, this skill will restore some of Lynette's HP, but for 4 seconds after usage, she will lose a certain amount of HP per second.

Elemental Burst - Magic Trick: Astonishing Shift

Lynette summons a Bogglecat Box that taunts enemy attacks, drawing enemy aggression to it. This cat-box also deals Anemo DMG at fixed intervals in a certain AoE. When the box touches other elements, it fires-off elemental attacks of the absorbed element.

This is a good talent to have for off-field DMG support!

Lynette Talents (Skills)

Normal Attack: Rapid Ritesword

Talent Description
Performs up to 4 rapid strikes. Charge Attack Consumes a certain amount of Stamina to unleash 2 rapid sword strikes. Plunge Attack: Plunges from mid-air to strike the ground below, damaging opponents along the path and dealing AoE DMG upon impact.

Enigmatic Feint

Talent Description

Flicks her mantle and executes an Enigmathrust, dealing Anemo DMG. When the Enigma Thrust hits an opponent, it will restore Lynette's HP based on her Max HP and in the 4s afterward, she will lose a certain amount of HP per second. Based on whether you tap or hold this ability, she will use Enigma Thrust differently. Tap She swiftly uses an Enigma Thrust. Hold Attack: Lynette will enter a Pilfering Shadow state and apply Shadowsign to a nearby opponent. You can control her movement during this state and you can end it prematurely by using this skill again. When this high-speed state ends, Lynette will unleash her Enigma Thrust. If there is an opponent with Shadowsign applied, Lynette will approach them in a flash before using Enigma Thrust. A Maximum of 1 opponent can have Shadowsign at a time and will be canceled if Lynette is too far from the opponent. Arkhe: Ousia At specific intervals, Lynette will unleash a Surging Blade when she uses an Enigma Thrust, dealing Ousia-aligned Anemo DMG.

Magic Trick: Astonishing Shift

Talent Description

Lynette raises her mantle high, dealing AoE Anemo DMG, using skillful sleight of hand to make a giant Bogglecat Box appear! Bogglecat Box • Taunts nearby opponents, attracting their attacks. • Deals Anemo DMG to nearby opponents at intervals. • When the Bogglecat Box comes into contact with Hydro/Pyro/Cryo/Electro, it will gain the corresponding element and additionally fire Vivid Shots that will deal DMG from that element at intervals. Elemental Absorption of this kind will only occur once during this ability's duration.

Sophisticated Synergy

Thoughts About Lynette

Character	In-Game Thoughts
Charlotte	No matter what question you pose to her, Lynette just calmly lowers her eyes with an expressionless look on her face. It's like she's some sort of... clockwork doll. I'm really tempted to write an article titled something like: "The Genius Magician's Puppet Assistant: Magic's Best-Kept Secret"... but I have a sneaking suspicion that even that wouldn't get a reaction out of her.
Chiori	Currently Unavailable Unlock Requirements: Reach Friendship Level 4 with Chiori
Freminet	If you assigned Lyney and Lynette with the same mission, they'd both do an outstanding job. But not me. Lynette is always comforting me, saying that everyone has their strengths, and how everyone relies on me to fix things around the house when they break down... If only I was half as good at anything else.
Furina	Of course I know Lyney and Lynette. I used to frequently attend their magic shows. Though they're very popular, they're still much less popular than me. Only my performances would draw a completely sold-out crowd... even standing tickets would be out. But now... Uh... I've already decided to hang up my acting career, so it's perfectly normal for my popularity to decline!
Lyney	Modes: You think my sister doesn't talk much? Oh, she's probably just not in the right mode. Next time, start by saying "Activate Chat Mode" to her. If you're lucky, she might have a great deal of things to say to you. Hmm, and if you're not lucky...? Well, she'll just stare for a while, but hey, at least you'll get to see a different side of her! Twins: My sister and I have always been inseparable. There's no hardship we can't overcome as long as we're together, and similarly, we share all our joys with each other. There's nothing in the world I treasure more than my family, so I know what it must be like for you... And if I find out anything at all that might help you, I'll be sure to let you know.
Navia	I know magicians can often be all bravado and razzmatazz, but I can tell that Lyney is a sincere guy who cares deeply about his friends and family. He's so mature for his age, it catches me off guard sometimes... Oh, and how could I forget - it was so kind of him to try and cheer up the children in Poisson with an impromptu free magic show during the flood! I'll have to invite him and Lynette over some macarons at my place when I get the chance. Iknow Lynette's always conjuring teacupsout of thin air, so surely at least she's a fan of a proper tea break?
Neuvillette	Their performances are just fascinating, don't you think? They draw you into a magical world where, on one hand, everything that takes place is part of an elaborate deception - but on the other, all manner of miracles are possible if you are only willing to believe.

Lynette's Thoughts About Others

Character	In-Game Thoughts
Arlecchino	About “Father” Oh, how ''Father'' expresses love... well, not everyone can accept it. But it is only because of "Father" that home... can be called home.
Charlotte	About Charlotte Uh... I was eventually cornered by her for interviews a few times. The way she persistently asked even after Lyney rejected her all those times, I really have to commend her perseverance. Too bad for her, though... despite preparing all those questions, I never answered a single one.
Chiori	About Chiori The costumes Lyney and I wear for performances were specially tailored by Chiori. Once, Lyney was using a small knife for a magic trick, and accidentally cut the cuff of his sleeve a bit. She scolded us nonstop... it was scary. Luckily, I can hide behind Lyney whenever we go to her shop.
Clorinde	About Clorinde I was once ordered to observe a duel of hers. Even just as a bystander, the coldness radiating from her was absolutely chilling... I don't know what it would be like to face her directly in a duel, and I hope I will never find out.
Emilie	About Emilie Her perfume products are so popular that you have to get in line before the break of dawn to have a chance at snapping any up. However, I'm far too sensitive to the smell of perfume, and it's really rude to sneeze... so I have to take the long way around.
Freminet	About Freminet He is a delicate and gentle child, but also tends to belittle himself... perhaps due to his previous experiences. Sometimes he feels like the antithesis of Lyney... but since they're both family, when their opinions clash, I will bridge their differences.
Furina	About Furina Lady Furina's behavior is incredibly hard to explain, and I can't discern any useful intelligence from observing her. I always feel like her every move and action is an act, and she is playing different people... She truly is an Archon, one cannot apply the logic of ordinary humans to her.
Lyney	About Lyney Unspoken Understanding: I have always been together with Lyney, and we can tell what the other is thinking without speaking. Thus, he tends to be more quiet than normal when we are alone. Hmm? Can I tell when he's lying or telling the truth? Of course I can, but this matter is top secret. Worries: To be updated soon!
Navia	About Navia Though she's the new president of Spina di Rosula, her style is more like the nosy big sister next door. If we really had a sister like her in the ''House of the Hearth,'' that would be really great... I know I probably shouldn't be wishing for anyone to be an orphan, but...
Neuvillette	About Neuvillette The Chief Justice always feels strangely aloof, though his words are always humble... or perhaps he just doesn't like dealing with humans? After all, when he speaks with Melusines, he's actually quite friendly.
