Player Mistakes

Back to All Characters

When it comes to Yun Jin’s best build inGenshin Impact, players can easily rely on their unused artifacts. Of course, that’s assuming they haven’t used the items to get other potentially godly artifacts. Nevertheless, farming for the opera artist should (theoretically) be easy, as theGenshin Impactdrop rategenerally favors Defense stats.

JoiningGenshin Impact’s roster of niche supports, Yun Jin shines with a DPS that heavily relies on Normal Attack. Although obviously, players have to useYun Jin’s best buildif they want her to significantly boost the main DPS.

Yun Jin’s Talent Overview

Like typical support characters, Travelers should steer clear of Yun Jin’s Normal Attack. Playing this character as the main DPS is far from her optimal role.

Elemental Skill

When trying out her Elemental Skill,Genshin Impactplayers are likely to be reminded of Beidou. Just like the Crux Captain, Yun Jin’s Skill is a “parry” and “counterattack” move. She canPressthis move to deal instant damage and generate two Elemental Particles. Meanwhile, if players use theHoldversion, Yun Jin will enter theOpening Flourish stanceand generate a shield. She will attack the enemy if:

Based on the time Yun Jin stays in this stance, she will release different amounts of damage. The Hold version of the skill will grant three Elemental Particles and can be used to block an enemy’s attack.

Because Yun Jin’s shield is only utilized for a short parry,players should never build Yun Jin on HP. On the contrary, as the ability scales with her DEF, it’s the sensible move to focus on DEF instead.

Elemental Burst

Yun Jin’s Elemental Burst is the main part of her moveset. After casting this ability, she will grant theFlying Cloud Flag Formationto all party members. When a character with this effect deals Normal Attack damage to an enemy, their damage will be increased based on Yun Jin’s DEF. This buff will scale higher if the party consists of different elements. With a mono-element party, the effect is only increased by 2.5%. But with two, three, and four elements, the increase is boosted to 5%, 7.5%, and 11%, respectively.

This effect can be triggered 30 times by each character, while the formation itself lasts for 12s. If the unit hits multiple enemies at once, then the buff will be activated accordingly. Therefore,this skill is best utilized when there are multiple mobs in the AoE.

Considering Yun Jin’s Elemental Burst has a 12s duration and 15s cooldown, players canrely on her to buff their DPSalmost 100% of the time. Of course, that’s assuming they’re using thebest build for Yun Jin.

Best Artifacts For Yun Jin In Genshin Impact

Considering Yun Jin’s main feature is the buff provided via her Elemental Burst, players' major focus should be maximizing this bonus. Therefore, Yun Jin’s best artifact would be:

As for her artifact sets,4-Husk of Opulent Dreamsis the obvious go-to.This artifact will stackas long as Yun Jin stays off-field, granting 24% extra DEF and 24% Geo damage at full-stack. However, as players would be highly reliant on her Burst, they can opt for2-Husk of Opulent Dreams + 2-Emblem of Severed Fateif Yun Jin is unable to maintain 100% uptime.
