Jianxin is a 5-Star Aero character available as of the Wuthering Waves 1.0 launch version.
Jianxin is featured as one the boosted 5-Star characters in the permanent Tidal Chorus, Beginner’s Choice, and Utterance of Marvels Banners, and you can also get Jianxin by losing the 50/50 chance to get a character on their limited-time Banner in Wuthering Waves.
To prepare for when you do get her, we’ve listed Jianxin’s Ascension materials and Forte materials so you can level her up to her full potential right away. To understand how you might play her, we’ve also detailed Jianxin’s kit and Resonance Chain.
Keep in mind that this is datamined pre-download information, so Jianxin’s materials and kit might change upon her official release.
On this page:
Jianxin is a 5-Star Aero character who uses gauntlets, and is best used in a hybrid DPS (damage per second) and sub DPS role. Jianxin buffs other characters, creates a shield, and deals good single-target and AOE (area of effect) damage, but she’s more of a jack-of-all-trades than being excellent in any fixed role.
All of the percentages mentioned below are based on Level 1 Skills.
Keeping in mind that this is datamined pre-load information from encore.moe that could change upon her official release, here’s a summary of Jianxin’s kit in Wuthering Waves:
Jianxin’s basic attack can perform up to four consecutive hits that deal Aero damage, while her heavy attack consumes stamina to perform a powerful punch that also deals Aero damage.
For her mid-air attack, Jianxin consumes stamina to plunge and unleash a powerful kick, dealing Aero damage, and Jianxin can use a basic attack after a successful dodge to attack the target and deal Aero damage.
When Jianxin’ Chi reaches max stacks, you can hold the heavy attack button to use Primordial Chi Spiral and start Zhoutian Progress. In Zhoutian Progress, Jianxin’s anti-interruption is increased, and her damage taken is reduced by 50%. Jianxin also continuously consumes Chi and uses Chi Strike to attack targets nearby, dealing Aero damage.
As Zhoutian Progress accumulates, Jianxin reaches different Zhoutian levels and gain effects accordingly:
When the basic attack button is released, Zhoutian Progress is interrupted and all Chi is lost, and when all Chi is consumed, the Zhoutian Progress ends. Also, when Zhoutian Progress ends, a shield is regained with a strength corresponding to the Zhoutian Progress you reached. If the shield provided by the Primordial Chi Spiral heavy attack is active, HP is restored for the on-field character once every 6 seconds.
Jianxin can hold up to 120 Chi, and Chi is obtained when Jianxin’s Fengyiquan normal attack, Intro Skill, and Chi Counter and Chi Parry Resonance Skills hit a target, and when her Calming Air Resonance Skill is used.
To get the most out of using Jianxin, you will have to unlock and level up her various Skill trees by using Forte materials, which vary from character-to-character. With the latest datamined pre-load information sourced from prydwen.gg, you’ll need to farm a lot of Unending Destruction, Howler Core, and Cadence materials to fully upgrade Jianxin’s capabilities..
In total, here’s all of the Forte materials you need for Jianxin:
Just like Fortes, you need to use Jianxin Ascension materials to upgrade her raw stats and get her to level 90, and the higher Jianxin’s Ascension level, the more you can invest in her Fortes.
With thanks to prydwen.gg again for sourcing the information, you’ll need to farm a lot of Lanternberry, Roaring Rock Fist, and Howler Core materials for Jianxin to level her up and fully upgrade her capabilities.
In total, here’s all the Ascension Materials you need for Jianxin in Wuthering Waves:
By getting duplicates of Jianxin from pulling her on Banners, you will receive her Wavebands, and you can also purchase a few Wavebands from the in-game shop. Wavebands are an important item, as they allow you to unlock Resonance Chain levels, with each level either improving an existing Skill or passive ability.
With datamined pre-load information sourced from encore.moe, here is Jianxin’s Resonance Chain in Wuthering Waves:
