Building wrinkling waves, Jianxin
You want to construct your own Wuthering Waves Jianxin, then? An really sensible decision. Jianxin is a great unit, particularly early on in the game, since she can assemble lesser adversaries into groups, heal herself and her allies, and do some decent damage. She's also kind of awesome.
Use these Wuthering Waves codes to help you move closer to your next five-star, and then check out your character's position on our Wuthering Waves tier list. Check out the new Wuthering Waves banner characters and other updates that will be included in the next Wuthering Waves update.

What talents does Jianxin possess?
Although Jianxin appears on every character-centric banner in the game as one of the normal Wuthering Waves characters, it doesn't make her any less playable than a limited character. With the use of her kit, Jianxin can attack objects, gather foes, heal herself, and defend your own squad (though this is regrettably not possible in cooperative play).
These are every attack and skill that Jianxin has..The active talents of Jianxin
Skill | Effect |
Basic attack – Fengyiquan | Jianxin performs up to four consecutive attacks that deal aero damage |
Heavy attack | When holding the basic attack button, Jianxin consumes some stamina to attack a target, dealing heavier aero damage |
Mid-air attack | Jianxin consumes some stamina to leap into the air, then plunges and deals aero damage to the targets |
Dodge counter | Using a basic attack after a dodge causes Jianxin to attack the target, dealing aero damage |
Resonance skill – Calming Air |
Hold the resonance skill button when the meter is full to enter the Parry Stance. During this move, Jianxin creates a shield. The longer you hold the move, the greater the shield gets. Chi Counter – Chi Parry – |
Resonance liberation – Purification Force Field | Jianxin creates a field of wind, pulling targets into it and grouping them together, dealing aero damage. When the wind field dissipates, it deals another instance of aero damage |
Intro skill – Essence of Tao | Jianxin pulls enemies in within her target range, dealing aero damage to them |
Outro skill – Transcendence | The next character you use gains a 38% resonance liberation damage boost for 14 seconds, or until they switch off field |
Passive skills of Jianxin
Skill | Effect |
Forte circuit – Primordial Chi Spiral |
When Jianxin’s ‘Chi’ reaches the maximum stacks, holding the heavy attack button starts the Zhoutain Progress. During the Zhoutain Progress, Jianxin’s anti-interruption increases, and her damage taken reduces by 50%. She consumes Chi continuously to strike enemies repeatedly with aero damage. As Zhoutain Progress accumulates, Jianxin can gain three levels of shield, while dealing constant aero damage to targets around her. If you use an attack while charging the Zhoutain Progress, Jianxin uses Pushing Punch to attack enemies. You build up Chi by attacking enemies and using skills |
Inherent skill – Formless Release (unlockable at resonator rank two) | The damage of Purification Force Field increases by 20% |
Inherent skill – Reflection (unlockable after Formless Release) | The strength of the shield Jianxin gains with Primordial Chi Spiral increases by 20% |
What are the resonance chains of the Jianxin?
You may get additional talents if you manage to draw more than one copy of Jianxin, which is possible since she is on the standard banner and you can lose a 50/50 to her.
With her wavebands, you may get the following:
Resonance chain sequence | Effect |
Sequence node one – Verdant Branchlet | After casting her intro skill, Jianxin gains 100% extra Chi from basic attacks for ten seconds |
Sequence node two – Tao Seeker’s Journey | Resonance skill Calming Air gains one extra charge |
Sequence node three – Principles of Wuwei | After staying in the Parry Stance for 2.5 seconds, Jianxin’s Chi Counter fully charges |
Sequence node four – Multitude Reflection | When using Primordial Chi Spiral’s heavy attack, Jianxin’s Purification Force Field damage increases by 80% for 14 seconds |
Sequence node five – Mirroring Introspection | The range of Purification Force Field increases by 33% |
Sequence node six – Truth from Within |
During Primordial Chi Spiral’s heavy attack, if Jianxin uses Pushing Punch, she can use the Special Chi Counter one extra time within five seconds. Special Chi Counter deals aero damage equal to 556% of Jianxin’s attack and is considered as heavy damage. Jianxin can also gain a fourth level of shield charge from Zhoutain Progress |
Which weapon suits Jianxin the best?
Even early in the game, Jianxin has a few strong alternatives when it comes to using the gauntlet weapon type. The Abyss Surges are the finest weapon for Jianxin, although they might be difficult to get. Marcato is her greatest alternative since both of these weapons improve her kit by increasing attack damage or recharging energy.
Weapon | Effect |
Abyss Surges (five-star) | Increases energy regeneration by 12.8%. When Jianxin hits a target with her resonance skill, her basic attack increases by 10% for eight seconds. When hitting a target with basic attacks, her resonance skill damage increases by 10%, lasting for eight seconds |
Marcato (four-star) | When Jianxin uses her resonance skill, she restores eight resonance energy. This effect can trigger once every 20 seconds |
Gauntlets#21D (four-star) | When Jianxin dashes or dodges, her attack increases by 8%. Her counter attack damage also increases by 50% for eight seconds. When she uses her counter attack, she restores HP equal to 5% of her max HP. This can trigger once every six seconds |
Gauntlets of Night (three-star) | When Jianxin uses her intro skill, her attack increases by 8% for ten seconds |
Which echoes fit Jianxin the best?
It is advisable to strive for a five-piece set of either Sierra Gale or Moonlight Clouds, or two pieces of each, while choosing an echo set for Jianxin. She has increased energy recharging and aero damage from these two set enhancements. If you would want to increase her healing power, you may also offer her a set of Rejuvenating Glow echoes.The following echoes are the finest to give Jianxin::- Bell-Borne Geochelone – this can give you a shield while adding to Jianxin’s damage reduction. The Geochelone is a great option for harder combat scenarios
- Feilian Beringal – the Beringal deals a good bit of damage while enhancing Jianxin’s attack and aero damage. This is good if you use her as a DPS
- Impermanence Heron – this echo can increase the attack of the next character you use. If you use the echo right after applying Jianxin’s shield, then you’re protected and buffed
Prioritize echoes with the following in terms of individual stats:
- Aero damage bonus
- Crit rate/damage
- Energy regeneration
- Attack
Which Jianxin team combination is the best?
Although Jianxin is versatile, as we've established, her ideal roles are shielder and sub-DPS. You may thus employ her to do a bit additional harm and stay safe to anybody you want.
The top Jianxin synergies are listed below.:- Wuthering Waves Calcharo – Jianxin’s outro skill boosts resonance liberation damage, so Calcharo’s Death Messenger attack gets a boost from this. Not only that, but she can provide a shield while he goes to work hitting things.
- Wuthering Waves Verina – Though Jianxin can shield herself and use a bit of healing if you’re going into a big battle, we recommend taking Verina. She can heal the entire team, and provide an attack buff with her inherent skill. Also, she can shield your party members from a fatal blow once during battle, which is always helpful.
- Wuthering Waves Jiyan – If you really want to amp up the aero damage, you can use Jiyan as your main DPS in a team with Jianxin.
- Wuthering Waves Mortefi – Mortefi’s deal is that he boosts heavy attack damage with his outro skill, so if you swap off him to Jianxin, then use her ultimate, you can get some great damage if you want to use her as a DPS. Her Chi Spiral counts as heavy attack damage, so his buff applies here. His co-ordinated attacks can double during her Chi Spiral, so use these together for even more hits.
