Jianxin Overview
Jianxin, born amidst the untamed realm and nurtured within the confines of a Taoist community, has been bestowed with the wisdom of Fengyiquan, a formidable martial art.
Her formative years cultivated within her an unwavering commitment to refining her martial prowess, driven by an unadulterated and unwavering determination.
Now, she embarks on a voyage into the realm of ordinary existence, eagerly seeking to taste the complexities of everyday life and attain a profound comprehension of the world that encompasses her.
In Wuthering Waves, Jianxin is a 5-Stars Aero character and uses Gauntlet during the fight.
Jianxin Review
Jianxin is a permanent 5-Star Aero character in Wuthering Waves.
Possesses comprehensive support abilities, capable of providing shields, healing, and pulling enemies together. The range and intensity of the pulling enemies are currently the best in the version, but still not excellent.
Resonance Skill is a damage-immune defensive counter, making it very suitable for novice players unfamiliar with action games to tackle high-difficulty dungeons.
Although it has damage output capabilities, the multipliers are very low and it lacks burst methods.
Pros
- Can provide high-value shields that are shared across the team, and during the shield duration, continuously restores the health of on-field characters.
- The pulling enemies effect of Resonance Liberation is particularly helpful in floors with many small enemies, providing support to high-burst but small-area damage characters, saving a lot of time.
Cons
- The efficiency of accumulating Concerto Energy and Resonance Energy is low, and Forte Circuit energy cannot be used in batches.
- Once Forte Circuit is used, regardless of whether the energy is fully consumed, the Forte Circuit energy will be cleared after exiting the charge state.
- Jianxin’s pace is relatively slow, creating a sense of disparity with the fast-paced combat characteristic of Wuthering Waves. Moreover, if there is already a healer in the team, Jianxin’s shield and healing abilities seem somewhat redundant.

Jianxin Best Weapon
100%
Base ATK : 337
Secondary Stat – Energen Regen : 51.8%
When Resonance Skill is released, restores Concerto Energy by 8/10/12/14/16. This effect can be triggered 1 time every 20s.
As mentioned in the review session, the fatal flaw of Jianxin is that the efficiency of accumulating Concerto Energy and Resonance Energy is too low. Therefore, as a Sub DPS, sacrificing Jianxin’ DPS with to use the weapon with the highest energy regen is the best option. Marcato is the best choice for Yanxin as a Support weapon.
Jianxin Team Comp
Jianxin Best Team
Main DPS
Sub DPS – Yinlin/Sanhua/Jianxin
Yinlin’s Outro Skill perfectly complements Calcharo. During Resonance Liberation, Calcharo’s Liberation Damage and Basic Attack Damage are approximately in a 2:1 ratio. Yinlin also provides Resonance Liberation Deepen and Electro Damage Deepen.
Sanhua’s Outro Skill provides a 38% Basic Attack DMG Deepen, which is lower than Yinlin’s. However, Sanhua’s Concerto Energy generation efficiency is higher.
Jianxin’s Outro Skill provides a 38% Resonance Liberation DMG Deepen. At first glance, Jianxin might seem more suitable for Calcharo than Sanhua. However, Jianxin’s low Concerto Energy generation efficiency results in a slower start-up for Calcharo.
On the upside, Jianxin can provide an additional shield, which enhances Calcharo’s survivability in high-difficulty contents (given that Calcharo’s operation difficulty is relatively high).
Healer – Verina/Baizhi
Verina’s healing abilities and Concerto Energy acquisition abilities are both greater than Baizhi’s, making her the preferred healer character. Verina’s Inherent Skill provides a one-time death immunity effect. Baizhi also has a similar effect that is even better, but it requires unlocking at Sequence 5.
Verina’s healing amount is based on her ATK, so Verina has a certain degree of damage output. If you build it well, her damage should not be underestimated.
Verina’s Inherent Skill can provide a 20% attack buff to the entire team, while Baizhi can only provide a 15% attack buff to a single character.

More Build Guides
Calcharo
Calcharo primarily uses the enhanced Basic Attack and enhanced Forte Circuit after using Resonance Liberation for damage output. In the series of damage output after using Resonance Liberation, the damage ratio between Resonance Liberation and Basic Attack is approximately 2.2:1. Additionally, the Resonance Skill can be released at intervals, allowing full enjoyment of the permanent five-star weapon’s effects.
After using Resonance Liberation, Calcharo gains a new Basic Attack model. The multiplier for this attack is related to the level of Resonance Liberation, but the main proportion of his damage comes from the “Death Messenger” in Forte Circuit. Resonance Skill can be used during the Liberation period to interrupt Basic Attack combos, quickly generate Forte Circuit Energy, and trigger “Death Messenger”. The main components of his damage output consist of these three elements.
Encore
mong the permanent 5-star Fusion DPS characters, Encore enters an enhanced state and changes attack mode after activating Resonance Liberation. The main source of Encore’s damage comes from Basic Attacks after activating Resonance Liberation, not the Forte Circuit. Additionally, the cooldowns for Encore’s regular Resonance Skill and the enhanced Resonance Skill during Resonance Liberation are independent of each other.
In Encore’s damage output after activating Resonance Liberation, Basic Attack damage accounts for nearly 70%. Choosing Sanhua as a teammate can maximize her damage potential.
Sanhua
Although Sanhua has burst capabilities, the overall damage is not high. In Sanhua’s output cycle, Resonance Skill damage and Resonance Liberation account for approximately 51% and 41%, respectively.
Although Resonance Skill damage is slightly higher, there is a risk of missing in actual combat. Sanhua has a unique Forte Circuit trigger mechanism similar to rhythm games, and hitting enemies can cause a slight time-stopping effect.
Sanhua has the fastest Concerto Energy and Resonance Energy acquisition efficiency in the game, making it the most versatile and best-feeling support in the current version. After using the Intro Skill, Sanhua only needs 3 seconds to fully charge Concerto Energy and trigger QTE, activating the Main DPS for output. Our team composition recommendations for various characters also show Sanhua’s high versatility.
