Of all of the 5-stars currently available in Wuthering Waves currently, Jianxin is seriously the one that caught me off-guard the most. I'm a big fan of this character and if you think you might be too, I would heavily recommend trying her out if you ever lose the 50/50 to her. But let me know what you think of her down in the comments below! ⬇
Honestly, she's so slept on. Just the other day, I was using her as my support healer, with rover and calcharo and found myself clutching awesome fights just because of her. She's truly bay.
Jiaxin is so underated, her forte circuit+turtle buff makes her immune to damage. She's my go to setter for havoc rover. I just regret using my free 5 star and beginner banner on her cause now i dont have verina XD
I had her early on as she was my selector banner pick & for me, she feels terrible as a pure dps. So i switched it up & now I run her hybrid sub dps & support (with more lean to support) while using the Bell turtle healing echo set for both boosted healing & 100% damage reduction on chi charge & she now feels amazing to use. The Bell turtle combined with her chi spiral charge giving her 100% damage reduction for 3 hits is HUGE for safely charging the sheild up when you fight stronger enemies that can 2 or 3 shot you bc their damage is so high. & the bonus healing really makes her healing solid & she can still give the team the damage bonus from the healing set due to her healing. She is the only character that can just sheild the party, heal the party, & still do respectable damage all at the same time. So yeah, i don't see Jianxin coming off my team anytime soon. Truly a peak unit.
Hey, turtle on her is actually genius. I always found her forte risky to use because she just stands there and most enemies can really hit hard. You just gave me a great idea on how to proceed in building her. She's my first 5* that made me happy on my account and she deserves to be built along with my main DPS.
IMO, her main selling point isn't the shield, but the fact that she has fast Concerto regen, unlike Taoqi and Yuanwu. Also, she gives a LOT of energy for the team while she charges the shield. Of course, the whole deal with Concerto is that you have a way to take advantage of her Liberation DMG bonus with characters like Xiangli Yao or Calcharo, although Changli is probably the star here since while she doesn't benefit as much as them from Liberation DMG bonus (XY and Cal deal 70-80% of their damage from Liberation, while Changli is more to the likes of 50%), she can use Emerald of Genesis just like Rover-Havoc and the upcoming Camellya (which is a much better DPS weapon than Lustrous Razor or Abyss Surge simply due to having a Crit Rate substat). The real challenge is micromanaging her Forte and Concerto. That's why Jianxin is so underrated... If you play her "wrong", she can easily cause your team DPS to plummet. Because her Elemental Skill only takes 12 seconds to recharge, most rotations want to use it twice, and you also want to use the Forte to charge the shield once per rotation. Yet, should you fill up your Concerto, you cannot swap from the next character or her immense Resonance Liberation Damage Bonus will be lost. So you have to make sure that her Concerto is only full at the exact time you need it to. For my Shorekeeper + Jianxin + Changli team (all S0), I usually spend my first rotation of Tower floors building Concerto without relying on the Forte bar (use Elemental Skill and Liberation, attack a bit). I then use my first fill of the Forte bar to boost Changli's Resonance Liberation (hits for 181k without any food or Tower buffs, which is huge for a S0 Changli using Emerald of Genesis) and swap to Shorekeeper in order to trigger her special Intro and deal a good amount of Spectro DMG, but I don't use SK's Liberation again right away. That's when I I go back to Jianxin, use her Elemental Skill and charge the shield, before swapping to Shorekeeper and using her Liberation, Skill and Echo. This way, all I have to do in order to finish filling Jianxin's Concerto is tapping her Skill again, which also fills a bit of her Forte for the next rotation. That said, even with Jianxin completely excluded from Shorekeeper's buffs during the rotation, I believe that it's worth investing in her damage in order to improve her contribution to the team's DPS given that she uses 1/3 of the 30-35 seconds of rotation. Abyss Surge is perfect for her since it will boost both her personal damage and shielding ability, and I'm slowly working my way into getting it in the next months.
Curious from other jianxin mains! How does she fair in tower of adversity or other end game modes ? I find the fact that she has to stand still for 6 seconds still kind of annoys me though 😅. Do you play her as DPS or shielder/healer?
@@nimrod98I play her DPS shielder and she works well in Illusive. I haven’t been playing adversity too much yet but from what I’ve played so far she does really good there too. I’ve been slowly playing and building so just finished her and my havoc rover.
@@nimrod98She is hybrid, she's pretty much useful on tower that spawns enemy 2 times (left side tower if im right) because of her Liberation You can build her hybrid attacker or full support whatever you prefer, depending what team your planning to team her etc. But given how slow she is (attack animation etc) its better to build her full support, give her a 3*3 echo with energy regen (on 1*1 its up to you), 3*3 is the most important echo cost for her.
I use Jianxin and Havoc rover on lower floors in tower its so good if only they rework the channeling shield for shorter field time, she will be an alt partner for Calcharo
She's my main and built as dps. I currently have her at s4 with 5* gauntlet as well. Hoping I lose 2 more 50/50s soon to her. Even when she gets crept, will still main her lol This is coming from someone with a s2 Jinhsi with sig, a s1 Jiyan with sig, and a s0 Yinlin with sig.
I use her with calcharo/ MC and yinlin, you just get heer as much atack and er as possible on the healing set, and the shield is huge you get them all grouped and destroy them, pretty fun to use as the 3rd slot
I lost 50/50 on Jiyan and Jinshi to Jianxin and got her again on standard banner yesterday so i’m R2 on her. Still have her on only lvl 59 with lvl 50 weapon.
Her biggest con imo is concerto generation reducing her swap capabilties. She seems like support generatin shields, suction but plays like a main dps. Good vid, but I think your microphone sounds a bit muffled, or maybe you're too close to it? I have sensitive ears, so could be just me though..
I did forget to mention it, but you're right. It's every 6 seconds if I remember correctly, and is actually pretty solid healing if you need that extra heal every now and again.
If she could swap cancel her chi spiral she would legitimately be better than verina. Her main issue rn is she takes too much field time to make the full use of her kit.
Her uptime for a lot of her kit does take away some of her versatility, that’s for sure. I always find myself wanting her ult to last longer so I can switch to my main DPS for more damage. But, even without that, she’s still a really solid unit.
@@JamessTown from my experience with her, I say that she doesn't necessarily take longer on the field when it comes to swapping. All I did was press her ult and then resonance skill then swap to the next character like Yinlin. Then Yinlin forte and click resonance skill. After you hit the resonance a second time, immediate swap to Jianxin. This swap set up can be applied with other units and you're guaranteed to parry on time.
I'm not sure. There might be a specific setting that is messing things up for you. My settings aren't all at max, but here they are: Resolution: 1920 x 1080 Frame Rate: 60 FPS Shadow Quality: Ultra High Special Effects Quality: Medium LOD Bias: High Capsule AO: On Volumetric Fog: On Motion Blur: Off Nvidia DLSS: On Super Resolution: Auto (Sharpening = 0) Anti-Aliasing: On Bloom: Off V-Sync: On Nvidia Reflex: On Crowd Density: High Hopefully this helps in someway. Maybe there's a setting in this list that causing the trouble. I hope that you're able to figure it out!
I have been thinking about it. Baizhi is really only there for a panic heal when I need it most. But it might be worth trying. Thanks for the suggestion!
I really like Jianxin, for someone with my skill issues her shields are great! Especially for boss fights that aren’t timed, she just makes them very comfy. I’ve been using the Bell-Borne Geochelone as her active echo and she takes zero damage while she is doing her long forte windup as long as she doesn’t get hit more than three times. You said she received a buff recently, what was it? I hadn’t heard that anything changed, was it after release?
She’s a really solid character. She may not be to everyone’s taste, but having a unit that can actively create a shield, especially in the early days of a Gacha is always super useful I find. I wrongly assumed the buffs were post launch. From what I’ve seen online, it was going from beta to full release that they buffed some of her numbers and percentages to improve her overall performance.
@@JamessTown Yeah, I was a Noelle main in Genshin up to something like AR 45 for the same reason, she could face-tank anything the game could throw at you at those levels. She just couldn't do enough DPS (at C0) to clear timed content after that.
Maybe it's because I didn't invest much into her but using her as a support feels bad, 10 seconds to get just a little bit of shield (and do virtually no damage) especially in the tower is just a waste of time. Also her spin move doesn't always stagger enemies so you just end up losing most if not all of your shield (yes I know about the turtle buff, it only blocks 3 hits though). Sure, her ult is useful, I use her with Calcharo and getting the first DM to land on everyone is nice, but her ult seems so short, plus it does nothing on bosses. Parry is nice, but again, if you don't invest much into her it doesn't do much damage and instead of switching to her to parry I could just dodge. Her outro dmg buff is also kinda wasted because I have Yinlin to pair with Calcharo. I think most people not impressed by her because it takes time and investment for her to be decent, but Verina is just good right away, well at least that's how I feel.
She is very good. A perfect all rounded character I would say. The only issue is she takes a lot of time In field and as most of the content needs to be done in a certain time period ,the charecter loses some value there in my opinion, but nevertheless I love this charecter

As someone who used one of their selector’s for Encore, a character I don’t use; I feel your pain and regret for not going with Verina instead. XD
Her versatility is 4.5/5. She saved me through tough times. She walked so my Jinhsi could run.

@@akattom Haha, glad to hear! Hope however you build her, it turns out great!
She was my 1st 5 star
jianxin for me is an all rounder, i use her as a main dps, sub dps and support
