Jean excels in providing healing while still dealing significant damage, making her one of the most flexible characters in terms of team roles. Her ability to cleanse, heal, and deal Anemo damage makes her invaluable in many team compositions.
Jean, the Acting Grand Master of the Knights of Favonius, is a versatile Anemo character in Genshin Impact who can serve as both a healer and a sub-DPS. Here’s how to optimize her build:
Suggested Weapons
•Aquila Favonia: It has a high base ATK and increases ATK further when Jean takes damage, which synergizes with her role as both a healer and a fighter. Its passive also heals her, which is perfect for her kit.
•Freedom-Sworn: Provides Elemental Mastery, which can enhance Swirl reactions, and has a team buffing effect when triggering elemental reactions, fitting well with Jean's supportive capabilities.
•Primordial Jade Cutter: Offers high CRIT Rate, increasing her damage significantly, and provides an ATK bonus based on HP, which benefits from Jean's healing scaling with ATK.
•Skyward Blade: Good Energy Recharge for more frequent bursts, which is crucial for healing and damage.
Artifacts
•4-piece Viridescent Venerer: Ideal for increasing Swirl damage and reducing enemies' resistance to the swirled element, enhancing her damage output while supporting her team through elemental reactions.
•2-piece Viridescent Venerer + 2-piece Gladiator's Finale or Noblesse Oblige: Combines the Anemo damage boost with either an ATK increase or an Elemental Burst damage increase, respectively.
•4-piece Noblesse Oblige: If focusing more on burst support, this set increases her Elemental Burst DMG and buffs the team’s ATK after using her burst.
Stat Priorities
•Sands: ATK% or Energy Recharge for burst uptime.
•Goblet: Anemo DMG Bonus for damage, or ATK% if focusing on healing scale since her healing scales with ATK.
•Circlet: CRIT Rate or CRIT DMG for increasing her damage; Healing Bonus if prioritizing healing.
Substats to Look For
•ATK%
•CRIT Rate/CRIT DMG
•Energy Recharge
•Healing Bonus (if focusing on healing)
Talent Priority
•Elemental Burst (Q) - Dandelion Breeze: Her burst not only deals Anemo damage but also creates a field that continuously heals all party members and cleanses debuffs, making it top priority for both damage and support.
•Elemental Skill (E) - Gale Blade: Useful for crowd control, launching enemies away, and generating energy particles. Also, it can pull enemies in when held, which can set up for other abilities.
•Normal Attack (Normal/Charged Attacks): Enhance if you're using her as an on-field DPS, but typically this is less important than her skills.
Team Composition
•Reaction Teams: Pair with characters that apply elements like Pyro, Hydro, Cryo, or Electro for Swirl reactions. Characters like Diluc, Xingqiu, or Bennett work well.
•Healing Support: Works in any team needing a reliable healer and Anemo support for crowd control or elemental resistance shred.
•Physical DPS Teams: If building her for physical damage (less common but viable), pair her with superconduct enablers like Fischl or Razor to reduce physical resistance.
Playstyle
•Use her Elemental Skill for crowd control or to pull enemies together for AOE attacks from your main DPS.
•Her burst should be used frequently not only for the burst damage but also for the continuous healing and cleansing field it creates.
