Which weapon suits Jiyan the best?

Waves that Wuthering Verdant Summit is Jiyan's greatest weapon., a five-star broadblade who significantly increases his damage output.

The four-star weapon Autumntrace is a good substitute if you haven't gotten your hands on it yet. It gives him a cumulative attack increase everytime he does basic or heavy attack damage.

Sub-echo slot one Whiff Whiff
Sub-echo slot two Chaserazor
Sub-echo slot three Cyan-Feathered Hero
Sub-echo slot four Chirpuff

  • Moonlit Clouds
    • Two equipped: increases energy regen by 10%

Which Jiyan team comp is the best?

We suggest that Jiyan be paired with a healer and a buffer to maximize his potent kit when choosing the optimal team. Naturally, however, certain personalities work better with him than others.Jiyan's synergies are as follows:
  • Wuthering Waves’ Mortefi – Mortefi is a great ally for Jiyan for many reasons. Firstly, Jiyan requires a lot of on-field time, whereas Mortefi requires very little. His outro skill also buffs heavy attack damage, which is very valuable to Jiyan as all of his attacks during his Qingloong mode are heavy. Additionally, Mortefi’s ultimate (resonance liberation) requires a high hit counter, which Jiyan can easily achieve with his own ultimate, and the heavy attacks of Jiyan’s ultimate trigger Mortefi’s additional coordinated attack. Therefore, we recommend using Mortefi’s ultimate, then quickly switching to Jiyan’s to use his, maximizing the damage of both moves
  • Wuthering Waves’ Aalto – while his kit doesn’t compliment Jiyan’s quite as much as Mortefi’s does, Aalto is still a strong support for Jiyan, mostly thanks to his substantial aero damage buff. However, he doesn’t offer Jiyan any other buffs outside of this, and he requires a bit more field time, which isn’t ideal
  • Wuthering Waves’ Verina – it should be no surprise that Verina’s here, as she’s undoubtedly the strongest healer and support in the game and a staple in pretty much any team comp. Her rotations are fast an easy to zip through, leaving plenty of time for Jiyan to take the field, and her outro skill offers a very welcome damage boost for 30 seconds. Basically, Verina synergizes with every character, so show her some love
  • Wuthering Waves’ Baizhi – if you don’t have Verina at your disposal, Baizhi is a decent alternative. While she’s a little more restricted, her kit still offers similar buffs to Verina’s, in addition to some respectable healing
With these synergies in mind, the optimal Jiyan squad composition is as follows:
Slot one Slot two Slot three
