Should You Pull for Lynx?

Lynx is an excellent healer who can heal and increase the maximum HP of her party while also increasing the aggro of Preservation and Destruction characters. Her Ultimate can cleanse a debuff from all allies and this alone makes her very valuable.

Additionally, Lynx is a 4-Star character which means she would be easier to get than a 5-Star. We highly suggest pulling for Lynx if you need another healer who can fit in any team. Her AoE cleanses and her strong heals can help your party survive in any situation.

HP% ★★★
SPD ★★★
Effect RES ★★
DEF% ★

Lynx's build prioritizes her healing output and Speed. Since her heals scale with HP, stack HP% stats to increase the heal amount she does, along with some Speed so she can take more actions.

Lynx can also use some Effect RES in her sub-stats not only to resist debuffs but to also use Broken Keel's passive. For the Rope, Energy Regen is better if the enemy does AoE damage and applies debuffs constantly. Otherwise, she can just use an HP% Rope.

Lynx's Best Teams

Lynx F2P Team (Free to Play)

Healer DPS Tank Support
Star Rail - LynxLynx Star Rail - Dan HengDan Heng Star Rail - Trailblazer (Fire)Trailblazer (Fire) Star Rail - AstaAsta

Lynx can be the solo healer for any F2P team. Here, Dan Heng will be your Main DPS with Lynx as the healer. Fire Trailblazer will provide the taunt and shields while Asta can provide more SPD and ATK buffs for the party.

This also means that you can use Natasha for your other party in situations that require it.

Lynx Solo Healer Teams

Healer DPS Support Support
Star Rail - LynxLynx Star Rail - BladeBlade Star Rail - BronyaBronya Star Rail - Silver WolfSilver Wolf

Lynx's Ultimate can remove any debuff inflicted on one or all party members. Because of this, Lynx can work in almost any team comp as a solo healer given how good her kit is, giving her team survivability, strong heals, and debuff cleanses.

This example of a Lynx team comp features her as a solo healer for a Wind-Quantum team. Since Blade is a Destruction character who likes getting hit, having Lynx provide healing for Blade to increase his taunt value turns him into a strong tank for the team.

Alternative Explanation
Star Rail - ClaraClara DPS Replacement
Like Blade, Clara is a Destruction character who likes to get hit. Lynx's Skill can increase her taunt value which means she would be able to use her counter-attacks more often.
Star Rail - Fu XuanFu Xuan Support Replacement
Fu Xuan is a good alternative support if you need more survivability for the party. Lynx's Max HP boost pairs well with Fu Xuan and she can also increase Fu Xuan's taunt value since she is a Preservation character.

Lynx Mono-Quantum Team

Healer DPS Tank Support
Star Rail - LynxLynx Star Rail - SeeleSeele Star Rail - Fu XuanFu Xuan Star Rail - Silver WolfSilver Wolf

This team requires Silver Wolf since she can apply Element Weakness to enemies. With a team consisting of just Quantum characters, Silver Wolf is guaranteed to apply Quantum Weakness on any enemy, assuming they aren't already weak to it by default.

Lynx will be the healer while Fu Xuan will mitigate the damage the team is taking. Lynx's Skill will increase Fu Xuan's taunt value while also increasing her Max HP. Lastly, Seele will be the main DPS. If you don't have Seele, you can use Qingque instead.

Alternative Explanation
Star Rail - QingqueQingque DPS Replacement
Qingque can act as the main DPS. When highly invested, Qingque can easily deal a lot of DMG, especially against enemies who are weak to Quantum.
Star Rail - BronyaBronya Support Replacement
Bronya can increase the party's CRIT DMG and give extra turns to the DPS.
Star Rail - TingyunTingyun Support Replacement
Tingyun can regenerate a party member's energy and her ATK buffs can enhance the DPS.
Star Rail - YukongYukong Support Replacement
Yukong can buff both the CRIT Rate and CRIT DMG of the DPS.

Lynx's Best Relics and Ornaments

All Recommended Relics and Ornaments

Relics Rating & Merits
Messenger Traversing Hackerspace Messenger Traversing Hackerspace x4 ★★★★★ - Best
Messenger Traversing Hackerspace is her best 4 pc. Relic Set since it provides Lynx with SPD while also allowing her to buff the party's SPD every time she uses her Ultimate.
Messenger Traversing Hackerspace Messenger Traversing Hackerspace x2
Passerby of Wandering Cloud Passerby of Wandering Cloud x2
★★★★☆ - 2nd Best
A mix of Longevous Disciple and Passerby of Wandering Cloud provides Lynx with more SPD while also increasing Lynx's Outgoing Healing, which increases her healing output.
Messenger Traversing Hackerspace Messenger Traversing Hackerspace x2
Longevous Disciple Longevous Disciple x2
★★★☆☆ - 3rd Best
A mix of Longevous Disciple and Messenger Traversing Hackerspace provides Lynx with more SPD while also increasing Lynx's Max HP, which increases the amount of her heals slightly.
Ornaments Merits
Broken Keel Broken Keel ★★★★★ - Best
Broken Keel is Lynx's best overall Planar Ornament. It increases the party's CRIT DMG as long as Lynx's Effect RES is at least 30%, which can be easily attained by unlocking Traces and getting Effect RES sub-stats.
Fleet of the Ageless Fleet of the Ageless ★★★★☆ - 2nd Best
Fleet of the Ageless is a good alternative Ornament since it can increase Lynx's own HP and buff the entire party's ATK. Keep in mind that Lynx should have at least 120 SPD for this to work, but it should be easy to reach using her Relics.

Lynx's Trace Priority

Trace Priority & Explanation
Basic Attack ★☆☆☆☆ - Lowest Priority
Lynx's Basic ATKs can be left out as she would only be using it to recover Skill Points and Energy.
Skill ★★★★★ - Highest Priority
Lynx's Skill is her main healing tool. Improving her Skill increases its healing as well as the Max HP boost it provides from Survival Response.
Ultimate ★★★★☆ - High Priority
Lynx's Ultimate provides AoE healing and a debuff cleanse. This should be prioritized after her Skill since leveling her Ultimate increases the healing it does.
Talent ★★★☆☆ - Mid Priority
Lynx's Talent provides continuous healing on her allies after she heals them. This should be leveled up after the Skill and Ultimate since leveling her Talent increases the continuous healing amount.

Lynx's Recommended Eidolons

Why We Recommend It
E1 ★★★☆☆ - Good
Lynx's heals become stronger when the ally is at 50% HP or less. This is a good Eidolon since it increases her healing output which also applies to her continuous healing.
E2 ★★★★★ - Best
Survival Response can now make an ally with it resist a debuff. This is her best Eidolon since it can protect an ally from crowd control debuffs.
E4 ★★★★☆ - Great
Survival Response now grants an ally an ATK boost based on Lynx's Max HP. This is a great Eidolon since it provides an ATK boost, which can improve a character's damage output.
E6 ★★★★☆ - Great
Boosts the Max HP increase of Survival Response and now also provides Effect RES to the target. This is a great Eidolon since now Lynx can increase an ally's Max HP even more and provide them with Effect RES, which is even more protection against debuffs.

Dude. Nat has less default speed than Lynx. Nat ultimate doesn't grant a heal over time, unless she is e2 and even then. Only when a unit is near death. Lynx e1 grants a boost to healing at anyone 50% or below. Which is far more likely to trigger. Even without it, the heal over time from Ult still happens. Nat has one benefit over Lynx. A single target cleanse, which might not even be needed if one of your supports is Bronya. Nat is the far more situational healer.

Bro simps for natasha too hard lmao,Lynx really good,she has good healing,give her broken kneel,she will be superb,I have loucha in other team and lynx in other even tho i have bailu,Lynx can also cleanse your allies and can help a lot in blade teams,ex-Blade-jingliu hypercarry
