UPGRADE PRIORITY
OUR REVIEW - Guide Jiyan WuWa
How to Use
Jiyan is a Main DPS whose damage is considered Heavy Attack DMG and who, when played well, deals solid damage.
Gameplay Style
Jiyan has a simple rotation, but cancels and quick swaps can increase his DPS.
PROS & CONS
Pros
F2P Friendly
Cons
For an average player, his damage is too low.
Requires his signature weapon
RECOMMENDED ROTATION - Rotation Jiyan WuWa
Intro - Unpredictable Blow: Jiyan always enters through his Intro, never as the first character. It deals Aero DMG and immediately builds 30 Annihilation points.
Resonance Liberation - Emerald Storm: Since the Intro already granted 30 Annihilation points, casting the Liberation directly triggers Forte Circuit: Rage of the Azure Dragon - Emerald Storm II instead of the basic Emerald Storm I, dealing far more Aero DMG in a single Liberation.
Resonance Skill - Windqueller: Cast during the Liberation buff, it triggers Forte Circuit: Rage of the Azure Dragon - Windqueller, boosting its damage thanks to the still-active Annihilation bonus.
Basic Attack - Lone Lance: Spam Basic Attacks while the Liberation and Resonance Skill buffs are active to maximize the Aero DMG dealt during this buff window.
Echo (if Nightmare Echo available): Trigger the Echo to deal extra Aero DMG while the buffs are still active.
Outro - Discipline: Swap out to end the rotation and trigger the coordinated attack that deals Aero DMG to the next team member.
Tip : Animation cancels exist and let you optimize the rotation. It can also vary depending on the Echo used: if you do not have the Nightmare Echo but a regular one, it is better to keep doing Outros onto Jiyan to maximize his damage. For example: Verina Outro onto Jiyan to trigger the Echo, then swap to Mortefi to Outro onto Jiyan, then cast Jiyan's Ultimate for maximum damage.

BEST TEAM COMPOSITIONS - Team Jiyan WuWa
Heavy Attack Team
Ces teams là sont les teams "simple" de Jiyan. Vous pouvez les jouer mais si vous souhaitez apprendre à vraiment bien jouer Jiyan, d'autres teams ont plus de potentiel.
Team Ciaccona
Les teams avec Ciaccona ont le plus de potentiel. Vous avez énormement de cancel / swap disponible et, si en théorie les damage sont plus faible en pratique vous avez bien plus de potentiel pour un joueur expérimenté.
Team F2P
Jouer cette team après la 3.x, en sachant qu'on a pas eu de buff est assez compliqué. Les damage sont beaucoup trop faible.
Team Lynae Mornye
Lynae and Mornye work with any DPS, Jiyan included, but this is quite an expensive team.

Jiyan WuWa Guide: 5★ Aero Broadblade Main DPS • kit, weapon, rotation, team and build
This Jiyan WuWa guide covers Jiyan's kit, best weapons, rotation, teams, build and skills.
What is the best build for Jiyan?
The optimal build for Jiyan is the Sierra Gale 5-piece set (4-3-3-1-1) with the Nightmare: Feilian Beringal main Echo, Crit. DMG on Cost 4, Aero% on Cost 3 and ATK% on Cost 1. His signature weapon Verdant Summit is recommended, otherwise Thunderflare Dominion or Ages of Harvest are the best alternatives.
What echo sets should I use for Jiyan?
The best set is Sierra Gale in 5 pieces (4-3-3-1-1) with the Nightmare: Feilian Beringal main Echo, Crit. DMG on Cost 4, Aero% on Cost 3 and ATK% on Cost 1.
How does Jiyan's rotation work?
Jiyan rotation: Intro - Unpredictable Blow → Resonance Liberation - Emerald Storm (cast directly as Emerald Storm II thanks to the 30 Annihilation points from the Intro) → Resonance Skill - Windqueller → spam Basic Attacks - Lone Lance during the buffs → Nightmare Echo → Outro - Discipline.
What are the best teams for Jiyan?
Jiyan's best teams are Jiyan + Iuno + Shorekeeper and Jiyan + Ciaccona + Shorekeeper, the latter offering the most potential for an advanced player thanks to its many cancels/swaps. A Mortefi team (Jiyan + Mortefi + Shorekeeper) is still playable but with lower potential.
Which talents should I prioritize for Jiyan?
Talent priority for Jiyan: 1) Liberation (67% of his damage), 2) Forte (16%), 3) Skill (15%), 4) Intro (2%), 5) Basic Attack. Level up Liberation first as it holds the bulk of his damage.
