How Strong is Jiyan?

Strengths
• Insanely powerful during Qingloong Mode.
• Heavy Attacks during Qingloong Mode can crowd-control enemies.
• Best against mobs of enemies thanks to his strong AoE DMG.
• Combos are not hard to understand.
Weaknesses
• Needs to be built with Energy Regen sub-stats to consistently enter Qingloong Mode.
• Most of his DMG comes from after entering the Qingloong Mode.

Jiyan is a strong Aero DPS that can deal a lot of damage during Qingloong Mode. Jiyan's Combos are easy to do, and his Heavy Attacks during Qingloong Mode can crowd-control enemies, which is great against AoE scenarios.

We Recommend At Least 130% Energy Regen

Jiyan's biggest weakness is that his damage mainly comes from his Qingloong Mode, and his damage outside of it is pretty sub-par.

Achieving a minimum of 130% Energy Regen tremendously helps his Resonance Liberation uptime, aiding in his team rotations significantly.

Main Echo Explanation
Wuthering Waves - Nightmare: Feilian BeringalNightmare: Feilian Beringal
Wuthering Waves - Aero
・Increases Jiyan's overall Aero DMG and Heavy Attack DMG.
・The perfect main echo for buffing Jiyan's attacks as much as possible.
・Use Feilian Beringal while you don't have access to Rinascita.
Wuthering Waves - Feilian BeringalFeilian Beringal
Wuthering Waves - Aero
・As an early game option, Jiyan's best main echo should be Feilian Beringal as it provides decent Aero DMG and Heavy Attack DMG Bonuses after its attack string.
・A downside to this echo is its long attack animation.
・Recommended to replace with its Nightmare version once Rinascita is accessible.
Wuthering Waves - Cyan-Feathered HeronCyan-Feathered Heron

Jiyan Best Sonata Effects

Echo Set Rating
Wuthering Waves - Sierra Gale Sierra Gale
(5-pc)
★★★ - Best
Sierra Gale is Jiyan's best Echo set as he benefits from the increase in Aero DMG provided by the 2-pc and 5-pc bonuses. Together with Nightmare: Feilian Beringal, he gets two more passive buffs to his Aero DMG and Heavy Attack DMG Bonuses.

Recommended Main Echo:
Wuthering Waves - Sierra Gale Sierra Gale
(2-pc)
Wuthering Waves - Lingering Tunes Lingering Tunes
(2-pc)
★★☆ - 2nd Best
Mixing in a 2pc Lingering Tunes provides a good increase in ATK while keeping the Aero DMG bonus from Sierra Gale. Do this if you're still farming for a full set of Sierra Gale with great sub-stats.

List of All Weapons

Jiyan Best Weapon Explained

Verdant Summit is easily Jiyan's best-in-slot weapon as it provides CRIT DMG and Heavy Attack DMG Bonus. If you can't afford Verdant Summit, any Broadblade that provides CRIT, ATK, or even Energy Regen stats will do.

Consensus:
Increases Basic Attack and Heavy Attack DMG Bonus by 12%

For non-BP 4-star Broadblades, Waning Redshift is Jiyan's best choice as a weapon for its ATK that Jiyan benefits from. Its skill helps him enter Qingloong Mode faster, making it a good choice for most players.

There is also a 3-star craftable option for Jiyan called the Guardian Broadblade which increases his Heavy Attack DMG Bonus. Its only downside is the low ATK it provides, but is still an option for non-banner weapons.

Jiyan Best Teams

Jiyan Heavy Attack Boost Team

Character / Role Echo Set
Wuthering Waves - JiyanJiyan
(Main DPS)
Wuthering Waves - IunoIuno
(Sub-DPS)
Wuthering Waves - Sierra Gale Sierra Gale (2-pc)*
Wuthering Waves - ShorekeeperShorekeeper
(Support)
*You may also use a Gusts of Welkin or Windward Pilgrimage set in place of Sierra Gale because they all provide the same Aero DMG increase. Your choice will likely depend on which set has the most number of echoes in your possession.

Character Explanation
Wuthering Waves - MortefiMortefi Sub-DPS Replacement
Mortefi is an affordable Sub-DPS option and is Jiyan's best 4-star option. You can replace Iuno for Mortefi, offering slightly worse Heavy Attack DMG amplification but is very viable.
Wuthering Waves - AaltoAalto Sub-DPS Replacement
Aalto's Outro Skill can increase Jiyan's Aero DMG.
Wuthering Waves - YangyangYangyang Sub-DPS Replacement
Yangyang can group enemies up with her Resonance Liberation and provide Resonance Energy to Jiyan with her Outro Skill.
Wuthering Waves - VerinaVerina Support Replacement
Verina's healing and Damage Deepen buff from her Outro Skill makes her a viable replacement when you don't have Shorekeeper.
Wuthering Waves - Rover (Aero)Rover (Aero) Sub-DPS Replacement
Rover (Aero) can be a viable but not better replacement for this team as long as you have another character that can apply negative status effect. Aero Rover converts those to Aero Erosion that can trigger Guts of Welkin for additional Aero DMG for the entire team.

You can only slot in Confession-mode Phoebe on the third slot for this one since she's the only one that can apply negative status effects.

Jiyan's best team is with Iuno as she is the premier Heavy Attack DMG buffer, providing him a huge 50% amplification for this damage type. She also deals high damage for a sub-DPS apart from her healing ability, making her the ideal partner for Jiyan.

As for the third slot, you ideally want to run Shorekeeper due to her general damage buffs to the entire team while also offering amazing sustain. You can, however, run other support healers like Verina if you don't have Shorekeeper.

General Rotation

1 Start the battle with Shorekeeper, and go through her combos before casting Stellarealm. Once her Concerto Gauge is filled, switch to Iuno.
2 With Iuno on-field, cast Liberation to fill her Forte immediately. Once her Forte is full, jump to enter the New Moon state, then do three Basic Attacks and two Enhanced Resonance Skills to consume Sentience and increase their DMG significantly.
3 Once her Concerto is full, switch to Jiyan via her Outro Skill to give Heavy Attack DMG amplification.
4 Next, use Jiyan's Resonance Liberation to enter Qingloong Mode and deal a lot of DMG with his Resonance Skill and Heavy Attacks while under Shorekeeper and Iuno's buffs.
5 Charge Concerto Energy once more by continuing to fight as Jiyan. Once it's full, swap to Shorekeeper to detonate her Stellarealm. Repeat the steps until the enemy has fallen.

Jiyan Aero Erosion Team

Character / Role Echo Set
Wuthering Waves - JiyanJiyan
(Main DPS)
Wuthering Waves - CiacconaCiaccona
(Sub-DPS)
Wuthering Waves - Rover (Aero)Rover (Aero)
(Support)

Character Explanation
Wuthering Waves - ShorekeeperShorekeeper Support Replacement
Shorekeeper is a good replacement for Aero Rover as she provides excellent healing and buffing capabilities to the whole team.

Jiyan works well with Ciaccona and Aero Rover to make a full Aero team. The team uses Aero Erosion to debuff enemies while providing significant DMG buffs to the entire party.

Ciaccona inflicts ample Aero Erosion stacks to enemies, and gives multiple Aero DMG buffs via her kit. This can be maximized with Jiyan, a straight-forward Aero DPS with excellent grouping and AoE attacks.

As for Rover (Aero), they act as both as a secondary sub-DPS and support to the team, being able to deal damage quickly while providing heals to other Resonators.

General Rotation

1 Initiate with Ciaccona and generate Ensemble Sylphs while applying Erosion stacks on to enemies. When her Concerto is filled, switch to Aero Rover.
2 Have Aero Rover do their internal rotations and deal damage quickly. Once available, cast Unbound Flow and switch to Ciaccona once again once Outro is up to increase the Erosion stack limit.
3 With Ciaccona on-field again, apply more Erosion stacks with her skills. Make sure to perform a Solo Concert while doing her combos to boost Aero DMG for the team.
4 Once her Forte bar is filled, cast a Heavy Attack to group enemies together and deal good damage. Then, cast her Resonance Liberation to deal off-field damage before switching to Jiyan.
5 Upon entering the field, have Jiyan cast Resonance Liberation. When in Qingloong Mode, maximize the Aero DMG buffs provided by both Ciaccona and Aero Rover and deal high AoE damage against enemies.
6 Repeat until all enemies are defeated.
Note Switch to Aero Rover when low as they can provide heals through Cloudburst Dance and Resonance Liberation.

Jiyan Free-to-Play Team

Character / Role Echo Set
Wuthering Waves - JiyanJiyan
(Main DPS)
Wuthering Waves - YangyangYangyang
(Sub-DPS)
Wuthering Waves - BaizhiBaizhi
(Support)

This free-to-play team composition relies on Yangyang providing Resonance Energy for Jiyan so that he can use his Resonance Liberation sooner.

Your third slot can be Baizhi or any other healer if you have them.

General Rotation

1 Yangyang starts the battle and charges the Concerto Energy until the other Resonator's icons glow up. She can use her Resonance Liberation to group up small enemies.
2 Once Jiyan is fully charged, you can switch to him so he can use his Intro Skill. Switching from Yangyang to Jiyan will restore the latter's Resonance Energy.
3 Use Jiyan's Resonance Liberation to enter Qingloong Mode and deal a lot of DMG with his Resonance Skill and Heavy Attacks.
4 Switch to Yangyang again once the Concerto Energy has fully charged up. If you need healing, switch to Baizhi and use their healing skill for a quick heal.
5 Repeat the steps until the enemy is felled.

Jiyan Gameplay Guide

Jiyan Gameplay Guide



Jiyan Gameplay Loop Summary

Open with his Intro Skill to deal damage against enemies.
Do Basic Attacks to build up his Forte gauge. When half of the gauge gets full, casting Resonance Skill or Liberation enhances it. Try to cast an enhanced Skill once.
When his Forte gauge is half-filled, cast Resonance Liberation to deal AoE damage prior to entering Qingloong Mode.
While in Qingloong Mode, all Basic Attacks transform into Heavy Attacks. You can group up enemies with these attacks, dealing high damage in the process.
After his rotation, swap out to deal a Coordinated Attack that deals good damage against enemies.

Basic Attacks and Intro Skill Increase Resolve

Wuthering Waves - Jiyan

Jiyan's Basic Attack Forte and Intro Skill can increase his Resolve Stacks. You can get a total of 60 Resolve stacks and if Jiyan hasn't attacked an enemy within 15 seconds, Resolve will gradually decrease.

If Jiyan has at least 30 stacks of Resolve, it will be consumed to increase the DMG of his Resonance Skill by 20% or enhance his Resonance Liberation so it can deal damage upon activation.

How to Check Resolve Stacks?

Wuthering Waves - Check Forte for Jiyan

You can check Jiyan's Resolve Stack count on his Forte Gauge. If Jiyan's Forte is half-full, he already has a total of 30 Resolve which can be used on his Resonance Skill or Resonance Liberation.

Use Resolve on Resonance Liberation to Deal DMG

Wuthering Waves - Jiyan Enhanced Resonanced Liberation

We recommend building up Resolve and using it on Jiyan's Resonance Liberation since it will deal a lot of damage upon activation.

When Jiyan's Resonance Liberation isn't activated, avoid using his Resonance Skill to consume Resolve and instead use the Skill when he's in Qingloong Mode since the former provides a lot more damage with Resolve.

Qingloong Mode Converts Basic Attacks into Heavy Attacks

Wuthering Waves - Jiyan

When Jiyan enters Qingloong Mode after using his Resonance Liberation, his Basic Attacks will be converted into Heavy Attacks. Jiyan's Heavy Attacks deal a lot of AoE damage and can group up small enemies.

Do note that the Heavy Attack stats during Qingloong Mode are from Jiyan's Resonance Liberation and not from his Basic Attack Forte.

Resonance Skill Doesn't Consume Resolve

Wuthering Waves - Jiyan

During Qingloong Mode, Jiyan's Resonance Skill gains an additional 20% DMG increase and will not consume Resolve stacks.

Use Resonance Skill to Counterattack Enemies

Jiyan - Counterattack.png

Jiyan's Resonance Skill can counterattack enemies. When a gold ring shows up on an enemy, use his Resonance Skill to do a Counterattack.

Jiyan Recommended Combos

Entering Qingloong Mode Combo

Combo
Intro Skill → Mid-Air Attack → Echo → Res. Liberation

When using Jiyan, ideally you would want to hit enemies with his Intro Skill first to collect the Resolve stacks. After using Jiyan's Intro Skill, use Jiyan's Mid-air Attack then use his Echo to deal damage and get buffs before activating his Enhanced Resonance Liberation.

During Qingloong Mode Combo

Combo
(During Qingloong Mode) Heavy Attack 1 → Res. Skill → Heavy Attacks → Res. Skill when available

During Qingloong Mode, use the first Heavy Attack and when the teal dragon shows up, quickly use your Resonance Skill to maximize the DPS.

After using your Resonance Skill, just use your Heavy Attacks until you can access your Resonance Skill or the Qingloong Mode ends.

Jiyan Skill Priority and Forte List

Skill Priority Explanation
Normal Attack ★★☆☆☆ Jiyan's Heavy Attacks from the Basic Attack and Resonance Liberation Fortes are different. We recommend upgrading his Resonance Liberation instead since that's where most of his DMG comes from. The Basic Attack, along with the Intro Skill, should be upgraded last.
Resonance Skill ★★★★ Jiyan's Resonance Skill should be leveled alongside his Forte Circuit since they're the secondary sources of damage. Focus on this and the Forte Circuit after upgrading Jiyan's Resonance Liberation.
Forte Circuit ★★★★ You would want to also level up Jiyan's Forte Circuit since it adds bonus damage to the Resonance Liberation if Jiyan has enough Resolve stacks.
Resonance Liberation ★★★★★ Most of Jiyan's DMG comes from his Resonance Liberation. Upgrading the Resonance Liberation will increase the Heavy Attack DMG during Qingloong Mode.
Intro Skill ★★☆☆☆ While the Intro Skill isn't bad, it contributes the least amount of damage compared to other Fortes in Jiyan's kit.

Jiyan's Qingloong Mode scales off primarily from his Resonance Liberation so it is imperative that you upgrade it first. Then, focus on improving his Forte Circuit and Resonance Skills first so they can catch up with the damage output during Qingloong Mode.

Jiyan Resonance Chain

Recommended Sequence Nodes

Why We Recommend It
S1 ★★☆☆☆ - Okay
It allows Jiyan to use his Resonance Skill twice and halves the Resolve Cost consumed when he uses his Resonance Skill. This barely increases Jiyan's DMG output since it doesn't affect his Resonance Liberation.
S2 ★★★☆☆ - Good
This will remove the need to do Basic Attacks to access Jiyan's Emerald Storm - Finale. The ATK buff is also a great bonus to have.
S3 ★★★★★ - Amazing
This can help you get CRIT stats through using Jiyan's Resonance Skill and Resonance Liberation. This can help lessen the need to farm for better Echo substats.
S4 ★★★☆☆ - Good
Jiyan's Resonance Liberation will not only increase his own Heavy Attack DMG but also other party members that use Heavy Attacks. This may open up dual-DPS teams for Jiyan with other Heavy Attack DPS units.
S5 ★★★★☆ - Good
Jiyan's Outro Skill can deal more damage and gain a nice ATK buff if he manages to hit enemies with his Intro Skill.
S6 ★★★★★ - Amazing
Provides an enormous DMG boost to the Resonance Liberation Emerald Storm Finale if Jiyan uses a Heavy Attack, Intro Skill, or Resonance Skill.

All Sequence Node Effects

S1 Benevolence
Resonance Skill Windqueller can be used 1 more time. When casting Resonance Skill Windqueller, the Resolve cost is decreased by 15.
S2 Versatility
After casting the Intro Skill Tactical Strike, Jiyan gains 30 Resolve and his ATK is increased by 28% for 15s. This can be triggered once every 15s.
S3 Spectation
When casting Resonance Skill, Windqueller, Resonance Liberation Emerald Storm - Prelude, Resonance Skill Emerald Storm - Finale or Intro Skill Tactical Strike, Jiyan's Crit. Rate is increased by 16% and Crit. DMG is increased by 32% for 8s.
S4 Prudence
When casting Resonance Liberation Emerald Storm - Prelude or Resonance Liberation Emerald Storm - Finale, the Heavy Attack DMG Bonus of all team members is increased by 25% for 30s.
S5 Resolution
The DMG multiplier of Outro Skill Discipline is increased by 120%. When Jiyan's attacks hit a target, his ATK is increased by 3% for 8s, stacking up to 15 times; this effect is immediately maxed after he casts Intro Skill Tactical Strike.
S6 Fortitude
Every time Heavy Attack, Intro Skill Tactical Strike or Resonance Skill Windqueller, Jiyan gains 1 stack(s) of Momentum, stacking up to 2 times. Resonance Liberation Emerald Storm - Finale will consume all Momentum, and each stack consumed increases the DMG multiplier of Resonance Liberation Emerald Storm Finale by 120%.

I can only say that you are completely incompetent and your fanaticism has clouded your mind. Open any character power comparison table or YouTube video, and you will see that this character is the weakest. This is the opinion of all the authors. As for my personal opinion, I would place him even lower in those tables, because a DD 5* dealing damage like a support 4* is ridiculous.
