Jiyan's Best Echo Sets Ranked
| Echo Set | Rating |
|---|---|
| Sonata Effect: Sierra Gale x5 Echo Ability: Feilian Beringal | ★★★ - BestFeilian Beringal is no doubt the best Echo for since it increases Jiyan's Aero and Heavy Attack DMG. The Sierra Gale full-set can also increase Jiyan's Aero DMG as long as he does an Intro Skill. |
| Sonata Effect: Sierra Gale x2 Lingering Tunes x2 Echo Ability: Feilian Beringal | ★★☆ - 2nd BestYou can go for a mix of Sierra Gale and Lingering Tunes if you're still farming for a full set of Sierra Gale with great sub-stats. |
| Sonata Effect: Sierra Gale x5 Echo Ability: Cyan-Feathered Heron | ★☆☆ - 3rd BestYou can use Cyan-Feathered Heron as a cheaper option since it deals Aero DMG and it has the ability to interrupt an enemy's Special Skills when dealing DMG. |

Jiyan's Forte Priority
Skill Tree Priority
| Forte | Priority & Explanation |
|---|---|
| Basic Attack | ★★☆☆☆ - Low Priority Jiyan's Heavy Attacks from the Basic Attack and Resonance Liberation Fortes are different. We recommend upgrading his Resonance Liberation instead since that's where most of his DMG comes from. The Basic Attack, along with the Intro Skill, should be upgraded last. |
| Resonance Skill | ★★★★☆ - High Priority Jiyan's Resonance Skill should be leveled alongside his Forte Circuit since they're the secondary sources of damage. Focus on this and the Forte Circuit after upgrading Jiyan's Resonance Liberation. |
| Forte Circuit | ★★★★☆ - High Priority You would want to also level up Jiyan's Forte Circuit since it adds bonus damage to the Resonance Liberation if Jiyan has enough Resolve stacks. |
| Resonance Liberation | ★★★★★ - Highest Priority Most of Jiyan's DMG comes from his Resonance Liberation. Upgrading the Resonance Liberation will increase the Heavy Attack DMG during Qingloong Mode. |
| Intro Skill | ★★☆☆☆ - Low Priority While the Intro Skill isn't bad, it contributes the least amount of damage compared to other Fortes in Jiyan's kit. |

Jiyan's Resonance Chain
Recommended Sequence Nodes
| Why We Recommend It | |
|---|---|
| S1 | ★★☆☆☆ - Okay It allows Jiyan to use his Resonance Skill twice and halves the Resolve Cost consumed when he uses his Resonance Skill. This barely increases Jiyan's DMG output since it doesn't affect his Resonance Liberation. |
| S2 | ★★★☆☆ - Good This will remove the need to do Basic Attacks to access Jiyan's Emerald Storm - Finale. The ATK buff is also a great bonus to have. |
| S3 | ★★★★★ - Amazing This can help you get CRIT stats through using Jiyan's Resonance Skill and Resonance Liberation. This can help lessen the need to farm for better Echo substats. |
| S4 | ★★☆☆☆ - Okay Jiyan's Resonance Liberation will not only increase his own Heavy Attack DMG but also other party members that use Heavy Attacks. Unless your Sub-DPS and Support benefits from Heavy Attack DMG, this Sequence Node is negligible. |
| S5 | ★★★★☆ - Good Jiyan's Outro Skill can deal more damage and gain a nice ATK buff if he manages to hit enemies with his Intro Skill. |
| S6 | ★★★★★ - Amazing Provides an enormous DMG boost to the Resonance Liberation Emerald Storm Finale if Jiyan uses a Heavy Attack, Intro Skill, or Resonance Skill. |
All Sequence Node Effects
| S1 | BenevolenceResonance Skill Windqueller can be used 1 more time. When casting Resonance Skill Windqueller, the Resolve cost is decreased by 15. |
