Jiyan, along withCalcharo, is one of the best DPS dealers in Wuthering Waves at the moment. While he arguably isn’t as skilled at taking down single targets as Calcharo, he makes up for this with some actual area of effect attacks. You’re going to be cleaning up the field with Jiyan, in other words, and should always strive to max out his Forte Gauge to activate his Resonance Liberation skill,Emerald Storm: Prelude.Once Jiyan entersQingloong Mode, he becomes a true beast as the green swirls of a jade dragon surround him.
You’re also going to want Jiyan to use his Intro SkillTactical Strikeas much as possible, since it’s a nice way to generate Resolve. Once you’ve gathered enough Resolve, his Resonance Liberation skill becomesEmerald Storm: Finale, which deals even more Heavy Attack Aero damage. This is why Jiyan works best with a strong sub DPS like Mortefi, since even though he’s a great damage dealer on his own, you’ll need to swap him in and out of the battle field from time to time to make use of his potential.
