Best Tingyun Build in Honkai: Star Rail
Let’s break it down a little. Tingyun is an excellent support who boosts your main DPS’ damage, and when paired with Bronya, they can give your main DPS one heck of a punch.
Tingyun’s Light Cone
For Tingyun, the 5-star Light Cone “But The Battle Isn’t Over” is the optimal choice. This Light Cone increases the wearer’s Energy Regeneration Rate by 10%-18% and regenerates 1 Skill Point when the wearer uses their Ultimate on an ally. This effect can be triggered after every 2 uses of the wearer’s Ultimate. Additionally, when the wearer uses their Skill, the next ally taking action deals 30%-50% more DMG for 1 turn(s). This complements Tingyun’s role as an electro support character, allowing her to provide consistent energy and DMG boosts to her team. However, the Light Cone “Carve the Moon, Weave the Clouds” is a viable substitute, providing random but powerful ATK, CRIT DMG, or Energy Regeneration Rate buffs to all allies at the start of combat and whenever the wearer’s turn starts.
Finally, the Light Cone “Memories of the Past” can also be used, increasing the wearer’s Break Effect by 28%-56% and additionally regenerating 4-8 Energy when the wearer attacks. This effect can only be triggered once per turn. However, it can still contribute significantly to Tingyun’s energy management and support capabilities.
Tingyun’s Relic
The Musketeer of Wild Wheat is the ideal relic for Tingyun. Its 2-piece set bonus increases the wearer’s ATK by 10%, allowing Tingyun’s ability and Ultimate to shine. Its 4-piece set bonus further boosts her stats, increasing her SPD by 6% and Basic ATK DMG by 10%. This allows Tingyun to take her turn first and buff her main DPS.
It synergizes well when paired with the 2-set Space Sealing Station, increasing her ATK by another 12% when her SPD reaches 120 or higher. Alternatively, the 2-set Sprightly Vonwacq can also be paired with it, increasing the wearer’s Energy Regeneration Rate by 5% and granting an instant 50% boost in action speed upon entering battle when SPD reaches 120 or higher.
Tingyun’s Team Comp
As a support character, Tingyun can be paired with anyone as long as the lineup has a main DPS, another support, and a healer for sustainability.
Traces Priority
 | Amidst the Rejoicing Clouds Ultimate Regenerates 50 Energy for a single ally and increases the target’s DMG by 20%–65% for 2 turn(s). |
 | Soothing Melody Skill Grants a single ally with Benediction to increase their ATK by 25%–62.5%, up to 15%–30% of Tingyun’s current ATK. When the ally with Benediction attacks, they will deal Additional Lightning DMG equal to 20%–50% of that ally’s ATK for 1 time. Benediction lasts for 3 turn(s) and is only effective on the most recent receiver of Tingyun’s Skill. |
 | Violet Sparknado Talent When an enemy is attacked by Tingyun, the ally with Benediction immediately deals Additional Lightning DMG equal to 30%–75% of that ally’s ATK to the same enemy. |
 | Dislodged Normal Attack Tingyun deals Lightning DMG equal to 50%–130% of her ATK to a single enemy. |
When building Tingyun, players should prioritize her ultimate ability due to the fact that it boosts and charges your main DPS’ ultimate. Secondly, since her skill also increases damage, it is advisable to prioritize it after maxing out her ultimate.
