Jiyan Team Comp

Jiyan Best Team 

Sub DPS

The main damage type of Jiyan is Heavy Attack Damage. Morfeti’s Outro Skill provides Heavy Attack DMG Deepen, making Morfeti the best teammate for Jiyan. Additionally, Morfeti has off-field coordinated attacks, offering substantial output compared to other Sub DPS options.

Sanhua provides Normal Attack DMG Deepen, which is not useful for Jiyan. However, Sanhua’s high-frequency switching and rapid energy restoration make her versatile and applicable to many teams. S6 Sanhua can increase the entire team’s ATK%.

Aalto provides Aero DMG Deepen, making Aalto a good alternative to Morfeti. However, Aalto’s energy insufficiency can affect the team’s overall damage output.

Substain

Both Verina and Baizhi are healers that can provide All-types DMG deepen and ATK% increase to teammates. While Verina is more comprehensive that her buff is longer and Verina can protects a party member from fatal damage every 10 mins.
