Jianxin is a melee Hybrid character who falls somewhere between support and damage dealer roles in Wuthering Waves.
She has the most diverse team benefits of any character currently on launch, which is simultaneously her greatest strength and weakness.
Jianxin can provide great team-wide shields while also dealing decent AOE and single-target damage. Her outro provides a great Liberation damage bonus, which can benefit a lot of the DPS characters in the game.
Jianxin's Ultimate and Intro skills can gather enemies up, similar to Venti from Genshin Impact, which can be great for clearing large crowds. She also provides a unique counter skill that you can use to bypass certain boss mechanics.
She struggles with other content in Wuthering Waves (at Sequence 0). Jianxin requires extensive field time to fully utilize her kit, making her a problematic companion for most main damage dealers.
Now let's look at the best way to build Jianxin in Wuthering Waves.

Summary
All in all, Jianxin can be a great starter Hybrid character in Wuthering Waves, thanks to her well-rounded kit. She provides a lot of sustain to her team and can be a great character to learn boss patterns on.
Jianxin has it all, but her most distinguishing characteristic is her incredible sustain, which renders her nearly resistant to all damage in overworld gameplay with the exception of Holograms. Furthermore, her massive Forte Gauge channels a giant AoE, making it simple to clear out entire packs of weaker monsters.
She is also prone to interruptions, which might jeopardize her ability to gain shields and energy, as well as dealing AOE damage. Furthermore, she has a high energy cost Ultimate and lacks the necessary damage to be useful as a key damage dealer in the endgame (Tower of Adversity).
Jianxin is definitely worth trying out in Wuthering Waves if you get her, as her unique playstyle might be enough to get you hooked. Just make sure to learn all her strengths and weaknesses so you can excel at using her.
