Forte Circuit is the main priority. Next is Resonance Liberation, followed by Basic ATK, Resonance Skill, and, lastly, her Intro Skill.

Highest Priority: Forte Circuit
High Priority: Resonance Liberation
Mid Priority:
Basic Attack
Low Priority: Resonance Skill
Lowest Priority: Intro Skill

Jianxin’s skill priority should focus on her Forte Circuit as the highest priority, enhancing both damage and team support capabilities.

Next, prioritize upgrading her Resonance Liberation, as her Resonance Liberation is crucial for grouping enemies and dealing significant damage.

After these critical skills, her Basic Attack should be upgraded to ensure she can effectively generate Concerto and Resonance Charges.

While providing a damage increase, the Resonance Skill should be upgraded mainly for its utility in negating attacks. Finally, her Intro Skill should be the lowest priority, as its crowd control utility is secondary to her other skills.

Notable Sequence Nodes are the following:

Sequence Node 2

The usage count of Resonance Skill Quiet Qi Circulation is increased by an additional 1 times

Sequence Node 5

The range of Resonance Liberation Field of Purification is increased.

Sequence Node 6

Best Teams

Team 1

Jianxin Sub-DPS

Calcharo (Main DPS)
Jianxin (Sub-DPS)
Verina (Support, Buffer)

Jianxin synergizes well as a Sub-DPS with characters like Calcharo, whose Resonance Liberation damage benefits from her Outro Skill. Verina is an ideal healer, boosting ATK and DMG for both Calcharo and Jianxin. Still, you can slot in a different healer if you don’t have Verina. Note that Jianxin can complement any character who frequently uses their Resonance Liberation, provided their damage counts as Resonance Liberation, as her boost doesn’t affect enhanced attacks unless specified, like Calcharo or Encore‘s Forte Circuit.

Team 2

Jianxin Main DPS

Jianxin (Main DPS)
Mortefi (Sub-DPS)
Verina (Support, Buffer)

For Jianxin’s Main DPS team, Mortefi is an excellent choice for buffing heavy ATK DMG with his Outro skill, which synergizes well with Jianxin’s Primordial Chi Spiral, entirely composed of Heavy attacks. Mortefi’s ultimate unleashes Coordinated Attacks, with extra benefits for heavy attacks, which Jianxin easily fulfills during her Forte Gauge. Verina completes the team, providing additional support and buffs. This composition offers a strong balance of burst damage, buffs, and sustainability.
