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 besides the buffs her kit already has. Sacerdos increases her SPD and provides a stacking CRIT DMG boost for the ally she uses her Skill or Ultimate on.

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%.

Recommended Stat Values

Stat	Recommended Value
ATK	2400 or above
SPD	134 / 143 / 160+
HP	3000 or above

Tingyun's ATK buffs scales on the ATK stat, so prioritize that along with SPD. Having some HP sub-stats will help Tingyun survive hard-hitting attacks.

Having high SPD on Tingyun allows her to regen SP and Energy more often by having more turns. Higher SPD is even better, but try to hit SPD Breakpoints.

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	Sparkle	Any DPS Character	Huohuo

Tingyun's offensive buffs are great by themselves, but pairing her with another offensive buffer like Sparkle will significantly ramp up the damage output of a single Main DPS unit. This enables the DPS to be powerful enough to 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 with a debuffer like Pela would also be viable.

Tingyun's Best Relics and Ornaments

All Recommended Relics and Ornaments

Relics	Rating & Merits
Sacerdos' Relived Ordeal x4	★★★★★ - Best Sacerdos' Relived Ordeal is the best set for Tingyun as it allows her to buff a single-target ally with her Skill and Ultimate.
Messenger Traversing Hackerspace x4	★★★★☆ - 2nd Best Messenger is also a great set for Tingyun since it increases her SPD and provides a party-wide SPD buff after using her Ult.
Eagle of Twilight Line x4	★★★☆☆ - 3rd 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.
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.
Lushaka, the Sunken Seas	★★★☆☆ - 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.

Relic List & Guide

Tingyun's Best Light Cones

All Recommended Light Cones

Light Cone	Why We Recommend It
Flowing Nightglow	★★★★★ - Best Flowing Nightglow is the best Light Cone for Tingyun since it increases her ATK and helps her increase the DMG dealt by the party when she uses her Ultimate.
But the Battle Isn't Over	★★★★☆ - Great But the Battle Isn't Over provides Tingyun some Energy Regen and can provide a Skill Point after using her Ultimate. The DMG buff requires Tingyun to be before the DPS in the turn order for this to be effective.
Earthly Escapade	★★★★☆ - Great Earthly Escapade provides party-wide CRIT Rate and CRIT DMG buffs. Tingyun would want to be before the DPS so that the latter can receive the DMG buff.
A Grounded Ascent	★★★★☆ - Great A Grounded Ascent provides energy restoration to Sparkle and DMG buffs to the ally targeted with her Skill or Ultimate. It also provides some bonus SP restoration after two uses of her Skill or Ultimate.
Meshing Cogs	★★★☆☆ - Good Meshing Cogs can provide Tingyun energy whenever she attacks or gets hit. This allows Tingyun to get her Ultimate back quicker. This is also a Light Cone you can easily S5 to gain its maximum potential.
Dance! Dance! Dance!	★★★☆☆ - Good Dance! Dance! Dance! allows Tingyun to Advance Forward her allies when she uses her Ultimate. This synergizes with her kit and can grant allies extra turns.
