Light Cone
Before DawnCRIT DMG and direct Skill, Ultimate and follow-up amplification cover Jing Yuan's entire rotation, with the largest bonus landing on Lightning-Lord.
Geniuses' ReposeIt supplies ATK and strong CRIT DMG after a kill, making it effective in waves but less reliable against a lone boss.
A permanent four-star Warp cone that does not require a limited signature.
Eternal CalculusEternal Calculus supplies ATK, stacks more ATK per enemy hit and grants SPD after hitting three or more targets.
When to use it : Prefer it in multi-target content where attacks regularly hit at least three enemies.
Relics
Lightning-Lord's many hits rapidly stack the four-piece ATK bonus, which remains the most coherent general set for Jing Yuan's kit.
Two-piece Scholar Lost in Erudition plus two-piece Musketeer of Wild Wheat is a transition mix: Increases CRIT Rate by 8%. Increases ATK by 12%.
It reuses strong pieces from two sets while a complete four-piece configuration with equivalent main stats and substats is still being farmed.
Planar Ornaments
Lightning-Lord is a summoned target, so the set grants its full 48% CRIT DMG without a separate activation threshold.
Inert Salsotto is a ranked alternative with this two-piece effect: Increases the wearer's CRIT Rate by 8%. When the wearer's current CRIT Rate reaches 50% or higher, the DMG dealt by the wearer's Ultimate and Follow-Up ATK increases by 15%.
When to use it : Reach 50% CRIT Rate to activate the Ultimate and Follow-Up ATK bonus.
Trace priority
- Talent
- Ultimate
- Skill
Jing Yuan uses Skill and Ultimate to add hits to Lightning-Lord, then Sunday advances the summon so those stacks convert into damage before they are wasted.
How to play it
- 1Keep Jing Yuan one SPD above Sunday after persistent buffs.
- 2Use Jing Yuan's Skill, then let Sunday advance him and Lightning-Lord.
- 3Use the Ultimate before Lightning-Lord acts when its three extra hits can reach a high stack count.
Sources and methodology
Editorial recommendations are written from released game data, then cross-checked against specialist calculations. They are not copied from a single tier list.
Review method
Prydwen's displayed calculations assume three targets and its major build update is 4.0; Icy Veins independently confirms the follow-up core. The released 4.0–4.4 compare and exact snapshot were used to verify BananAmusement Park and current IDs. CRIT targets explicitly separate sheet stats from self and planar buffs.
