Should You Pull for Tingyun?
Tingyun is a Lightning Harmony character that can provide offensive buffs and restore the Energy of a single ally. Her kit is focused on supporting a DPS character and enabling them as a hyper carry. She is a universal character as well and fits into almost any team.
If you find her kit interesting or need a Lightning support character that can provide offensive buffs for your DPS, then Tingyun is a great choice.

| 2 | Earthly Escapade |
| 3 | Meshing Cogs |

| 5 | Memories of the Past |
This build allows Tingyun to provide other useful buffs in addition to the buffs her kit already has. Messenger Traversing Hackerspace increases her SPD and provides a party-wide SPD buff after casting her Ultimate, which can be useful for any character.
Broken Keel increases Tingyun's resistance to debuffs thanks to the Effect RES and increases the CRIT DMG of the party, as long as she meets the 30% Effect RES requirement. Having ATK% Body and Sphere pieces is also useful since Benediction scales with ATK%.
Recommended Stat Values
| Stat | Recommended Value |
|---|---|
| ATK | 2400 or above |
| SPD | 134 / 143 / 160+ |
| HP | 3000 or above |
Tingyun's ATK buffs scales on the ATK stat, so prioritize that along with SPD. Having some HP sub-stats will help Tingyun survive hard-hitting attacks.
Having high SPD on Tingyun allows her to regen SP and Energy more often by having more turns. Higher SPD is even better, but try to hit SPD Breakpoints.
Tingyun's Best Teams
Tingyun F2P Team
| Support | Support | Main DPS | Healer |
|---|---|---|---|
| Tingyun | Yukong | Dan Heng | Natasha |
As one of the best supports in the game, Tingyun can be added to any Team Comp that has room for her. For a F2P team, Dan Heng would especially want Tingyun in the team since his Talent, which only activates when he's targeted by an ally's ability, synergizes well with her.
Hyper Carry Teams
| Support | Support | Main DPS | Healer |
|---|---|---|---|
| Tingyun | Sparkle | Any DPS Character | Huohuo |
Tingyun's offensive buffs are great by themselves, but pairing her with another offensive buffer like Sparkle will significantly ramp up the damage output of a single Main DPS unit. This enables the DPS to be powerful enough to take out enemies with ease.
With this kind of team composition, you usually don't need a Sub DPS anymore. If you don't have another buffer, pairing Tingyun with a debuffer like Pela would also be viable.
| Character | Merits |
|---|---|
| Asta | Can replace Sparkle. Provides Speed and stacking Attack buffs for the whole team. |
| Bronya | Can replace Sparkle. Bronya provides DMG buffs and extra turns to the DPS. |
| Robin | Can replace Sparkle. Robin provides DMG buffs and an extra turn for her other allies when she uses her Ultimate. |
| Ruan Mei | Can replace Sparkle. Ruan Mei brings more unique buffs like Break Efficiency and All RES PEN, which can be paired well with Tingyun's buffs. |
| Hanya | Can replace Sparkle. Hanya brings single-target SPD and ATK buffs, as well as SP restoration which can also pair well with Tingyun's buffs. |
| Hunt Destruction Erudition Units | Tingyun will greatly improve the damage of any offensive unit designated as the Main DPS. |
Tingyun's Best Relics and Ornaments
All Recommended Relics and Ornaments
| Relics | Rating & Merits |
|---|---|
| Messenger Traversing Hackerspace x4 | ★★★★★ - Best Messenger is the best set for Tingyun since it increases her SPD and provides a party-wide SPD buff after using her Ult. |
| Eagle of Twilight Line x4 | ★★★★☆ - 2nd Best Eagle of Twilight Line can be used by Tingyun since it gives her Advance Forward after using her Ult, which means she gets her next turn much earlier. This allows her to get her Ult back up more easily by restoring Energy through quick turns. |
| Watchmaker, Master of Dream Machinations x4 | ★★★☆☆ - 3rd Best Watchmaker can be used if anyone else in the party is using Messenger Traversing Hackerspace. Best used with other party members who scale on Break Effect. |
| Ornaments | Merits |
| Broken Keel | ★★★★★ - Best Gives a CRIT DMG buff for the team, which provides the highest DPS increase out of all the support Ornaments. Requires Effect RES from substats or other bonuses to activate the CRIT DMG buff. |
| Fleet of the Ageless | ★★★★☆ - 2nd BestIncreases Tingyun's HP%, which slightly increases her survivability. Provides an ATK% buff for the entire team, which is easier to unlock compared to Broken Keel. |
| Penacony, Land of the Dreams | ★★★☆☆ - 3rd Best Enables a 3-turn Ultimate cycle when paired with an S5 Memories of the Past or Meshing Cogs. Tingyun will still need a 4-turn cycle to recharge her Ultimate without the previously mentioned S5 Light Cones, with or without an Energy Regen Rope main stat. |
Tingyun's Best Light Cones
All Recommended Light Cones
| Light Cone | Why We Recommend It |
|---|---|
| Flowing Nightglow | ★★★★★ - BestFlowing Nightglow is the best Light Cone for Tingyun since it increases her ATK and helps her increase the DMG dealt by the party when she uses her Ultimate. |
| But the Battle Isn't Over | ★★★★☆ - GreatBut the Battle Isn't Over provides Tingyun some Energy Regen and can provide a Skill Point after using her Ultimate. The DMG buff requires Tingyun to be before the DPS in the turn order for this to be effective. |
| Earthly Escapade | ★★★★☆ - GreatEarthly Escapade provides party-wide CRIT Rate and CRIT DMG buffs. Tingyun would want to be before the DPS so that the latter can receive the DMG buff. |
| Meshing Cogs | ★★★★☆ - GreatMeshing Cogs can provide Tingyun energy whenever she attacks or gets hit. This allows Tingyun to get her Ultimate back quicker. This is also a Light Cone you can easily S5 to gain its maximum potential. |
| Dance! Dance! Dance! | ★★★☆☆ - GoodDance! Dance! Dance! allows Tingyun to Advance Forward her allies when she uses her Ultimate. This synergizes with her kit and can grant allies extra turns. |
| Memories of the Past | ★★★☆☆ - GoodMemories of the Past provides extra energy to Tingyun after she attacks an enemy. This has better stats than Meshing Cogs but does not regen Energy when the wearer gets hit. |
