How to play Jiyan
An Aero main DPS with wide AoE, a high attack rate and a strong parry, and the most straightforward loop of any Aero carry.
Basic Attack and Intro Skill hits build Resolve up to 60, and 30 is enough to enhance his Resonance Skill or upgrade his Resonance Liberation. Resolve decays if he goes 15 seconds without landing anything. After Resonance Liberation he gets 10 seconds where Basic, Heavy and Dodge Counter all become a special Heavy Attack.
Jiyan’s best teams
Jiyan Team · Lynae
Jiyan (Main DPS), Lynae (Sub-DPS), Mornye (Support)
The best Jiyan Team.
Lynae feeds Resonance Liberation DMG, and that’s what Jiyan scales on.
Mornye only enters a Jiyan team next to Rebecca or Lynae, answering their Hack and Tune Rupture respectively. Without one of them she is a niche pick, and the buffing she brings is usually better spent elsewhere.
On the numbers, about 1.5M per rotation.
Jiyan Dual DPS
Jiyan (Main DPS), Iuno (Sub-DPS), Shorekeeper or Ciaccona or Verina (Support)
Iuno's damage amp multiplies everything Jiyan does.
Shorekeeper puts Crit and ATK on top of everything, and heals.
On the numbers, about 1.3M per rotation.
With Ciaccona: about 1.3M. With Verina: about 1.1M.
Jiyan Erosion Team
Jiyan (Main DPS), Ciaccona (Sub-DPS), Shorekeeper or Rover (Aero) (Support)
A solid Jiyan Erosion Team.
Ciaccona's Aero Erosion DMG covers the whole team. Jiyan gets it in any rotation order.
Shorekeeper puts Crit and ATK on top of everything, and heals.
On the numbers, about 1.1M per rotation.
With Mortefi (4★) in Shorekeeper’s seat: about 1.0M per rotation.
Jiyan Team
Jiyan (Main DPS), Rebecca or Phrolova (Sub-DPS), Shorekeeper (Support)
A solid Jiyan Team.
Rebecca feeds Heavy Attack DMG, and that’s what Jiyan scales on.
Shorekeeper puts Crit and ATK on top of everything, and heals.
On the numbers, about 1.3M per rotation.
