How Strong is Jianxin?

Strengths
・Resonance Liberation is great for grouping mobs
・Forte Circuit can provide shielding
・Resonance Skill can negate an enemy's attack
・Outro Skill can buff the next character's Resonance Liberation
Weaknesses
・Has lower ATK than most other 5-Star characters
・Doesn't have an innate Aero DMG Boost
・Resonance Liberation is less effective against heavier enemies

Jianxin is a versatile DPS and Sub-DPS Hybrid that can provide crowd-control with her Resonance Liberation and party-wide shields with her Forte Circuit. Her Outro Skill buffs the next character's Resonance Liberation.

While Jianxin is amazing against AoE scenarios, she struggles against heavier enemies due to her crowd-control only being effective on light enemies.

Jianxin is decent as a Sub-DPS thanks to her Ultimate and Intro Skill grouping enemies, and her Outro Skill amplifying the next character's Resonance Liberation DMG. She can also double as an off-tank thanks to her Resonance Skill being able to absorb attacks and her Forte Circuit healing her and reducing damage taken.

You mainly want to build on her strengths, so having Moonlit Clouds improves her sub-DPS capabilities by providing additional ATK buffs. For stats, getting more CRIT (4-COST) and Aero DMG (3-COST) pieces are highly recommended. You essentially want to get about 140% Energy Regen on her at S0 due to her slow rotations, so an Energy Regen 3-COST is also quite viable, although we recommend getting this via her sub-stats instead.

Echo Tier List

Jianxin Best Sonata Effects

Echo Set Rating
Wuthering Waves - Moonlit Clouds Moonlit Clouds
(5-pc)
★★★ - Best
The 5 pc. Moonlit Clouds set makes Jianxin lean towards a more supportive build by increasing her Energy Regen Rate and by buffing the next character used after her Outro Skill. Note that this set is best used on a more rotation heavy or Resonance Liberation focused team comp.

Recommended Main Echo:
Wuthering Waves - Sierra Gale Sierra Gale
(5-pc)
★★☆ - 2nd Best
A 5 pc. Sierra Gale set makes Jianxin lean towards a more offensive build by increasing the damage of her Aero attacks.

Recommended Main Echo:
Wuthering Waves - Sierra Gale Sierra Gale
(2-pc)
Wuthering Waves - Lingering Tunes Lingering Tunes
(2-pc)
★☆☆ - 3rd Best
Use this set if you don't have a 5 pc. set with the ideal stats. This will give her a good balance of generic Aero and ATK Boosts. Optionally, you could also replace Lingering Tunes with Moonlit Clouds if you want extra Energy Regen instead of ATK.

List of All Weapons

Jianxin Best Weapon Explained

Jianxin has a variety of options to choose from for her weapon, as her kit is quite general and doesn't fall under any specific DMG type, so she will benefit from any Gauntlet available. However, weapons that maximize her playstyle, such as Resonance Liberation DMG, Crit, or Energy Regen, are still highly recommended.

Verity's Handle is easy to activate for and is highly recommended due to her primary damage coming from her Liberation skill. Moongazer's Sigil is also viable for the exact same reason, although she cannot generate multiple shields enough to maximize its secondary effect.

Other viable options you may consider are Abyss Surges for its Energy Regen and high ATK stat, Marcato for better rotations with the team thanks to its Energy Regen, and other 4-star weapons that can boost either of these two stats.

(Sub-DPS)
Wuthering Waves - Rover (Aero)Rover (Aero)
(Support)

Character Explanation
Wuthering Waves - Xiangli YaoXiangli Yao DPS Replacement
Xiangli Yao is a character that can also be used with Jianxin, thanks to how most of his kit is considered Resonance Liberation DMG. You may use Jianxin as replacement for Yinlin, if you do not have her.
Wuthering Waves - CalcharoCalcharo DPS Replacement
Calcharo is a viable DPS replacement capable of utilizing the Resonance Liberation Amplification she provides with her Outro, mostly because her main damaging move Heavy Attack: Death Messenger is considered Resonance Liberation DMG.
Wuthering Waves - Rover (Havoc)Rover (Havoc) DPS Replacement
Havoc Rover can benefit greatly from Jianxin's Resonance Liberation amplification.
Wuthering Waves - ChangliChangli DPS Replacement
Changli's burst potential with her Resonance Liberation also increases when paired with Jianxin because of her Resonance Liberation Amplification.
Wuthering Waves - ShorekeeperShorekeeper Support Replacement
The best and most general Healer-Support that you can replace Aero Rover with. She will not have the Aero DMG Bonus that Aero Rover may provide to the team, but her healing and crit buff utilities makes crit building much easier.
Wuthering Waves - VerinaVerina Support Replacement
As another 5-Star Support, Verina's Damage Deepen can buff both Jianxin and the team's Main DPS, while also providing consistent healing.
Wuthering Waves - BaizhiBaizhi Support Replacement
Baizhi is a free-to-play option who can provide a ton of healing.

Jianxin is a great Sub-DPS for someone like Iuno, a new Aero character that majorly scales off Resonance Liberation. This synergy works because Iuno can make use of Jianxin's Outro Skill that provides Resonance Liberation DMG Amplification.

Rover Aero is chosen to be the defacto healer-support for the team to facilitate the usage of Rejuvenating Glow and provide additional Aero DMG Bonus on the side.

General Rotation

1 Start the battle with Aero Rover, and use their internal rotations to gain Concerto Energy. Don't forget to use their Resonance Skill to deal aerial attacks that will heal the party and trigger the Rejuvenating Glow effect. Swap to Jianxin afterwards.
2 Cycle through Jianxin's kit to build her Forte Gauge. Use Jianxin's Forte Circuit to gain a shield, and her Resonance Liberation to group enemies. Then, swap to Iuno with full Concerto Energy.
3 With Jianxin's Outro Skill buff, build up to and use Iuno's optimal rotations. Make sure to maximize damage by managing Sentience.
4 When Concerto Energy is max and after casting Absolute Fullness, swap back to Aero Rover. Note that even though Iuno provides Heavy Attack DMG Amplification to the next Resonator that comes in, Aero Rover won't be able to use it.
5 Repeat the steps until the enemy is felled.

Character Explanation
Wuthering Waves - CalcharoCalcharo DPS Replacement
Calcharo is a viable DPS replacement capable of utilizing the Resonance Liberation Amplification she provides with her Outro, mostly because her main damaging move Heavy Attack: Death Messenger is considered Resonance Liberation DMG.
Wuthering Waves - VerinaVerina Support Replacement
As another 5-Star Support, Verina's Damage Deepen can buff both Jianxin and the team's Main DPS, while also providing consistent healing.
Wuthering Waves - BaizhiBaizhi Support Replacement
Baizhi is a free-to-play option who can provide a ton of healing.

Jianxin is viable as a sub-DPS for any Resonance Liberation DMG-based DPS unit like Xiangli Yao. She fits into these teams quite well, as she is essentially a jack-of-all-trades unit with her ability to provide additional sustain and buffs.

General Rotation

1 Initiate with Shorekeeper and build up her Resonance and Concerto gauges with her internal combos. Then, cast her Liberation and activate Stellarealm when available. Once Concerto is full, switch out to Jianxin.
2 Cycle through Jianxin's kit to build her Forte Gauge. Once full, hold her attack and use her Forte Circuit to gain a shield, followed up by her Resonance Liberation to group enemies. Then, swap to Xiangli Yao via Outro.
3 As Xiangli Yao, maximize Jianxin's Resonance Liberation DMG buff by going through his combos to build up his Resonance Energy.
4 Once available, activate his Liberation and enter the Intuition state. Aim to use his Resonance Skill three times before the state ends to deal optimal damage and fill his Concerto gauge. Lastly, switch back to Shorekeeper to detonate Stellarealm.
5 Repeat the steps until the enemy is felled.

How to Play Jianxin

Jianxin Gameplay Guide



Jianxin Gameplay Loop Summary

Enter the field with her Intro Skill, followed by her Resonance Liberation.
Then, hold her Resonance Skill and two Basic Attack strings to fill her Chi bar (Concerto Energy).
Once full, hold down the Heavy Attack button until the bar is depleted. This will generate a shield for your allies.
Before exiting the field, cast Echo skill to trigger Impermanence Heron's damage buff. Then, switch out to the next Resonator.

Charge Forte to Use Heavy Attack

How to Gain
Chi Stacks
・Basic Attack
・Heavy Attack (uncharged)
・Mid-air Attack
・Dodge Counter
・Tap Resonance Skill
・Long Press Resonance Skill
・Intro Skill

Resonance Skill doesn't need to hit enemies to get Chi.

Jianxin's general playstyle revolves around charging her Forte Circuit gauge by stacking Chi. Listed above are the abilities that can generate Chi.

Resonance Skill Parries Attacks

Jianxin's Resonance Skill can parry attacks, even from bosses, by holding down the Resonance Skill button. She does not take damage when this ability triggers. But, if you release the button, Jianxin will deal Aero DMG.

Use Heavy Attack: Primordial Chi Spiral

After filling up Jianxin's Forte Circuit gauge, use Heavy Attack: Primordial Chi Spiral by long pressing the Baic Attack button. This starts Zhoutian Progress.

Charged Heavy Attack Explained

Wuthering Waves - Jianxin

How to Use Heavy Attack When the Forte Circuit gauge is full, hold Heavy Attack to increase Jianxin's anti-interruption, deal continuous Aero DMG, and slowly consume Chi. Release the button when you reach your desired Zhoutian progression.
Zhoutian Progress
(Breakdown)
[Before Minor Zhoutian]
・This occurs if Chi consumption has yet to reach ①.
・Gains a shield.
・Deals Aero DMG when the Heavy Attack button is released.
[Minor Zhoutian]
・This occurs if Chi consumption reaches ①.
・Gains a stronger shield compared to the one above. Also, casts Shock to deal Aero DMG.
・Deals Aero DMG again when the Heavy Attack button is released.
[Major Zhoutian: Inner]
・This occurs if Chi consumption reaches ②.
・Gains a stronger shield compared to the one above.
・Has the same damage-related abilities as Minor Zhoutian.
[Major Zhoutian: Outer]
・This occurs if you fully consume Jianxin's Chi.
・Provides the same shield as Major Zhoutian: Inner and also casts Shock.
・Aim to reach this progression to maximize the shield and damage provided by the ability.

The table above lists the different stages that can be reached when you continue to hold down Jianxin's Heavy Attack. You ideally want to consume all Chi to maximize the abilities' effect. It is also worth noting that the shield that it provides will also heal the on-field character!

Cast Ultimate to Gather Enemies

Jianxin's ultimate simply pulls in enemies to the center of the wind field and deals continuous Aero DMG. When the wind field disappears, it deals Aero DMG again to affected targets. This ability is great to use before swapping out to a different character!

Jianxin Recommended Combos

Optimal Rotation Combo

Combo
Intro Skill → Res. Lib → Res. Skill (Hold) → Basic Attack Combo x2 → Heavy Attack - Primordial Chi Spiral → Echo → Outro

Start by using Jianxin's Intro Skill followed by her Resonance Liberation. Afterwards, use Jianxin's Resonance Skill on hold and do two full Basic Attack combos to collect the maximum Chi and fill up Concerto energy.

Once her Chi is full, hold down the Heavy Attack until the animation ends. Finally, use Jianxin's Echo and switch to the DPS character to have their Resonance Liberation DMG Amplified.

Jianxin Skill Priority and Forte List

Skill Priority Explanation
Normal Attack ★★★☆☆ Whenever Jianxin isn't using her Ult or Forte Circuit, she'll be attacking to generate Concerto and Resonance Charges. Upgrade her Basic Attack after her Resonance Liberation and Forte Circuit, but remember to not neglect it and leave it too low level.
Resonance Skill ★★☆☆☆ The damage increase from leveling this skill up is nice, but Jianxin's Resonance Skill should still be mainly used to negate an attack rather than for the damage that it deals.
Forte Circuit ★★★★★ While upgrading this skill is great for the damage boost it'll get, its biggest draw is that it also increases the Shield and Healing that you get. This is extremely useful for supporting your team, especially if you don't have a dedicated Shielder/Healer.
Resonance Liberation ★★★★★ Jianxin's Ultimate is one of her most important abilities since it groups up enemies while dealing a lot of damage. Upgrading this skill is a high priority since it will greatly improve your efficiency at killing mobs.
Intro Skill ☆☆☆☆ While her Intro Skill is great for grouping enemies without having to use her Ult, it's still the lowest priority upgrade when compared to every other skill that she has.

Focus on upgrading her Forte Circuitand Resonance Liberation above her other skills, as majority of her heals, shields, and damage come from these two abilities. Once you upgraded them enough, upgrade her Normal Attack and Resonance Skill accordingly, and Intro being upgraded last.

Jianxin Resonance Chain

Recommended Sequence Nodes

Why We Recommend It
S1 ★★★☆☆ - Good
This Sequence Node is nice to have since it will help you quickly max out her Chi and get the strongest possible Shield from her Forte Circuit. While it's not the most important upgrade out there, it's still a wonderful buff to have if you can get it.
S2 ★★★★★ - Amazing
Having another instance of her Resonance Skill is amazing to have, since it'll improve her rotations significantly. Aside from dealing additional damage, Calming Air provides her with more Concerto Energy, so she can switch in and out to other Resonators more comfortably.
S3 ★☆☆☆☆ - Mediocre
While the extra damage from Chi Parry turning into Chi Counter is nice, this ability should still be mainly used to negate an attack rather than for the damage that it deals.
S4 ★★★★☆ - Great
Having an upgrade to her Ult's damage after using her Forte Circuit is great since you'll want to swap out to your Main DPS after using her Ult. The combination of her Outro Skill buff, Forte Circuit defenses, and Resonance Liberation damage will help your Main DPS safely destroy a wave of enemies.
S5 ★★★★☆ - Great
Similar to her S4 upgrade, increasing the range of Jianxin's Ult is great since it will allow you to suck in even more enemies to quickly kill off with your Main DPS. This is especially great against enemies that spawn relatively far apart and wouldn't get CC'd without the upgrade.
S6 ★★★★★ - Amazing
Jianxin's final Sequence is overloaded with amazing buffs to her kit. This upgrade allows her to cancel a 1 charge Forte Circuit and immediately counter with a heavily empowered Resonance Skill for free. On top of that, she will also gain a Zhoutian Progress 4 Shield, which cannot be obtained without this upgrade!

If you plan on heavily investing in your Jianxin, then this is a must-have skill to get since it heavily improves both her DPS and Supportive capabilities.

Unlock All Sequence Nodes if You Can

While Jianxin's S1 and S2 upgrades are great buffs to get, she really starts to shine the more levels you get in her Resonance Chain. Admittedly, her S3 isn't that great outside of a DPS boost, but everything after that more than makes up for it.

If you plan on using her in the long run, even after newer characters are added to the game, then heavily investing in her Resonance Chain becomes well worth it.

All Sequence Node Effects

S1 Verdant Branchlet
After casting Intro Skill Essence of Tao, Jianxin gains 100% extra Chi from Basic Attacks for 10s.
S2 Tao Seeker's Journey
Resonance Skill Calming Air can be used 1 more time.
S3 Principles of Wuwei
After staying in the Parry Stance of Resonance Skill Calming Air for 2.5s, Resonance Skill Chi Counter becomes immediately available.
S4 Multitide Reflection
When performing Forte Circuit Heavy Attack: Primordial Chi Spiral, Jianxin's Resonance Liberation Purification Force Field damage is increased by 80% for 14s.
S5 Mirroring Introspection
The range of Resonance Liberation Purification Force Field is increased by 33%.
S6 Truth from Within
During Forte Circuit Heavy Attack: Primordial Qi Spiral, if Jianxin performs Pushing Punch, enhanced Resonance Skill Special Chi Counter can be used 1 time(s) in 5s. Special Chi Counter: Deals Aero DMG equal to 556.67% of Jianxin's ATK, considered as Heavy Attack DMG. Obtain a Zhoutian Progress 4 Shield (Benefits from Inherent Skill Reflection's bonus effect.)

I've had her at s6 for awhile now she was the first 5 star I pulled and I almost always lose my 50/50 to her. Now that I have iuno i think I might actually build her to see what she is like. Aero Rover is pointless as a healer iuno already had fairly strong held plus jianxin shields so I'm probably just going to try going back and forth between the two of them since they buff each other nicely.
