Should You Pull for Tingyun?

Tingyun is a Lightning Harmony character that can provide offensive buffs and restore the Energy of a single ally. Her kit is focused on supporting a DPS character and enabling them as a hyper carry. She is a universal character as well and fits into almost any team.

If you find her kit interesting or need a Lightning support character that can provide offensive buffs for your DPS, then Tingyun is a great choice.

Tingyun's Best Builds

Hypercarry Support

This build allows Tingyun to provide other useful buffs in addition to the buffs her kit already has. Messenger Traversing Hackerspace increases her SPD and provides a party-wide SPD buff after casting her Ultimate, which can be useful for any character.

Broken Keel increases Tingyun's resistance to debuffs thanks to the Effect RES and increases the CRIT DMG of the party, as long as she meets the 30% Effect RES requirement. Having ATK% Body and Sphere pieces is also useful since Benediction scales with ATK%.

Tingyun's Best Teams

Tingyun F2P Team

Support	Support	Main DPS	Healer
Tingyun	Yukong	Dan Heng	Natasha

As one of the best supports in the game, Tingyun can be added to any Team Comp that has room for her. For a F2P team, Dan Heng would especially want Tingyun in the team since his Talent, which only activates when he's targeted by an ally's ability, synergizes well with her.

Hyper Carry Teams

Support	Support	Main DPS	Healer
Tingyun	Bronya	Any DPS Character	Natasha

Tingyun's offensive buffs are great by themselves, but pairing her with another offensive buffer like Bronya will significantly ramp up the damage output of a single Main DPS unit. This enables the DPS to be powerful enough and take out enemies with ease.

With this kind of team composition, you usually don't need a Sub DPS anymore. If you don't have another buffer, pairing Tingyun up with a debuffer like Pela would also be viable.

Tingyun's Best Relics and Ornaments

All Recommended Relics and Ornaments

Relics	Rating & Merits
Messenger Traversing Hackerspace x4	★★★★★ - Best Messenger is the best set for Tingyun since it increases her SPD and provides a party-wide SPD buff after using her Ult.
Eagle of Twilight Line x4	★★★★☆ - 2nd Best Eagle of Twilight Line can be used by Tingyun since it gives her Advance Forward after using her Ult, which means she gets her next turn much earlier. This allows her to get her Ult back up more easily by restoring Energy through quick turns.
Watchmaker, Master of Dream Machinations x4	★★★☆☆ - 3rd Best Watchmaker can be used if anyone else in the party is using Messenger Traversing Hackerspace. Best used with other party members who scale on Break Effect.
Ornaments	Merits
Broken Keel	★★★★★ - Best Gives a CRIT DMG buff for the team, which provides the highest DPS increase out of all the support Ornaments. Requires Effect RES from substats or other bonuses to activate the CRIT DMG buff.
Fleet of the Ageless	★★★★☆ - 2nd Best Increases Tingyun's HP%, which slightly increases her survivability. Provides an ATK% buff for the entire team, which is easier to unlock compared to Broken Keel.
Penacony, Land of the Dreams	★★★☆☆ - 3rd Best Enables a 3-turn Ultimate cycle when paired with an S5 Memories of the Past or Meshing Cogs. Tingyun will still need a 4-turn cycle to recharge her Ultimate without the previously mentioned S5 Light Cones, with or without an Energy Regen Rope main stat.
