Best Echo Sets for Jianxin
The 5 pc. Moonlit Clouds set makes Jianxin lean towards a more supportive build by increasing her Energy Regen Rate and by buffing the next character used after her Outro Skill. Note that this set is best used on a more rotation heavy or Resonance Liberation focused team comp.
A 5 pc. Sierra Gale set makes Jianxin lean towards a more offensive build by increasing the damage of her Aero attacks.
