Wuthering Waves Jiyan build

Wuthering Waves’ Jiyan is quite the striking man, slashing onto the scene as the first five-star character to feature on a limited banner. Wielding a broadblade and the power of aero, he’s a fierce fighter with a kit that focuses on dishing out heaps of devastating, wind-infused damage. He’s also devastatingly handsome, in my opinion. In this build guide, we dive into Jiyan’s skills, best weapons and echoes, and more, so you can make the most of this heart-stopping husbando.

Who is Wuthering Waves’ Jiyan?

Jiyan is a five-star aero character who uses the broadblade weapon type.

He’s the commander of Midnight Rangers, and is well-known for his strong sense of justice and resolution. Jiyan was born into a family devoted entirely to medicine, and grew to be both skilled and attentive in nature. However, he’s since given up on his peaceful life in the world of medicine, instead choosing to take up arms as a soldier Fighting against the Tacet Discords.
