Biography

Jing Yuan in Hongkai: Star Rail is one of the six generals of the Xianzhou Alliance and the head of the Cloud Knights of Xianzhou's Lofu. He once fought on the battlefields along with other fighters, but now puts internal security and the development of the flagship Lofu first. The man gives the impression of an eternally calm and relaxed person (hence the nickname “Slumbering General”), but in reality this is not the case: the general is serious and overly scrupulous in many matters. Thanks to his leadership, peace and tranquility have reigned in Luofu Xianzhou for several decades.

Basic skills

Jing Yuan's skills are aimed at dealing damage to several adversaries. His specialty is the Lightning Lord, who fights alongside other party , dealing Electric damage. Thus, even being the only DPS fighter in the group, the head of the Cloud Knights Luofu Xianzhou copes with the “fat” bosses without any problems. Next, we will take a closer look at the principle of operation of Jing Yuan’s skills.

Active skills

Technique "Summoning the Spirit" || Gain

Using a technique increases the number of Lightning Master's hits per action by 3 on the first turn of the next battle.

Basic Attack "Shining Light" || Single attack

Deals electrical damage to the selected enemy equal to 50-130% from Jing Yuan's attack power.

Emboldening Salvo "Cracking Zenith" || Group attack

Deals electrical damage to all enemies equal to 50-125% from Jing Yuan's attack power, and increases the number of strikes per action of Lightning Master by 2 on the next turn.

Superpower "Bearing Light" || Group attack

Deals electrical damage to all enemies equal to 120-240% from Jing Yuan's attack power, and increases the number of strikes per action of Lightning Master by 3 on the next turn.

ive skills

Talent "Eradicating Prana" || Group attack

At the start of combat, summon a Lightning Lord that has a base speed of 60 and a base number of hits per action of 3. When the Lightning Lord performs an action, its hits count bonus attacks, in which each strike deals electrical damage to a random enemy equal to 33-82.5% of Jing Yuan's attack power, and electrical damage to nearby targets equal to 25% of the damage dealt to the main target.

The Lightning Lord's number of hits per action can be up to 10. Each time the Lightning Lord's number of hits per action increases by 1, his speed increases by 10. After his action ends, the Lightning Lord's speed and number of hits per action return to their base values.

The Lightning Lord disappears if Jing Yuan becomes unable to fight. The Lightning Master becomes unable to act while Jing Yuan is under the control effect.

The order of leveling abilities

Talent ≥ Skill ≥ Superpower > Basic Attack.

Talent, Superpower and Skill are Jing Yuan's main abilities, which allow him to deal high damage as well as advance and enhance the Lightning Lord's attacks. Their pumping should take place in a sequential manner. As for the basic attack, it is not a priority. Jing Yuan must use the skill to dial in the Lightning Lord's attacks. The basic skill is used extremely rarely, therefore, its pumping is relegated to the “background”.

Tracks

The next item on strengthening the character is the pumping of talents, additional characteristics and skills. Jing Yuan footprints:

Savant Providence: Instantly restores 15 health. energy at the beginning of the battle.	Battalia Crush: If the number of hits per action of the Lightning Lord is greater than or equal to 6 in the next turn, then his crit. damage on the next turn is increased by 25%.	War Marshal: after using the skill, the crit level. chance increases by 10% for 2 turns.
Attack power by +6%.	Crete. +2,7% chance.	Defense by +7,5%.
Crete. +4% chance.	Attack power by +4%.	Crete. +5,3% chance.
Attack power by +6%.	Defense by +5%.

In addition, separately from the skills discussed above, it is possible to increase attack power by 4% and 8% at level 1. and 80 lvl. character, respectively.

As a result, overall increase in stats:

Crete. chance	+ 12 %
ATK	+ 28 %
DEF	+ 12,5 %

Eidolons [Constellations]

All Jing Yuan's eidolons:

number	Name	<font><font>Materials</font></font>
1	Slash, Seas Split	When the Lightning Master attacks, the damage multiplier against nearby targets is increased by 25% of the damage multiplier of the affected enemy.
2	Swing, Skies Squashed	After Lightning Master takes an action, Jing Yuan's basic attack, skill, and ultimate damage is increased by 20% for 2 turns.
3	Strike, Suns Subdued	Increases the level superpowers by 2. The maximum level is 15. Increases the level basic attack by 1. The maximum level is 10.

5	Stride, Spoils Seized	Increases the level skill by 2. The maximum level is 15. Increases the level talent by 2. The maximum level is 15.
6	Sweep, Souls Slain	Each attack of the Lightning Lord inflicts a Weakness status on the affected enemy. Weakened enemies take 12% more damage until the end of the Lightning Master's current turn. This effect can stack up to 3 times.

The best constellations of Jing Yuan are E2 и E6:

Feature E2: After summoning the Lightning Master, any damage dealt by Jing Yuan is increased by 20% for 2 turns. A useful acquisition aimed at increasing the overall damage of the character.
Feature E6: Another constellation aimed at increasing the base damage of Jing Yuan's abilities. An expensive purchase, since the character is the hero of a temporary banner. However, if you have the eidolon in question, you can equip the squad in such a way that the general becomes the only full-fledged DPS character in the group. With the heroes of the Path of Harmony and the Path of Nothingness, as well as a good protector or healer, Jing Yuan will be able to cope with content of any complexity. And even high-level bosses won't seem difficult.

Advantages and disadvantages

Like most other characters, Jing Yuan has its advantages and disadvantages.

Advantages	Disadvantages
Mass damage. The character deals quite high damage to several targets due to the Lord of Lightning, which is why he is able to quickly deal with groups of enemies, which is suitable for effective farming or, for example, ing through ordinary zones of the “Virtual Universe”.	Belonging to the Path of Erudition. As a rule, representatives of the named Path are inferior to the effectiveness of characters who follow the Paths of Hunting and Destruction. Compared to heroes like Moon Eater, Jingliu or Blade, Jing Yuan can suffer in of damage output.
Good damage to a single target. Despite belonging to the Path of Erudition, the hero is able to quickly deal with elite opponents or tougher bosses. Thanks again to the Lightning Lord, who acts as the main source of damage. The main thing is to have at least 8 hits from the summoned creature.	Game from the Lord of Lightning. Jing Yuan is tied to the Lightning Lord's strikes. The damage from the skill and superpower is low compared to the numbers that the summoned creature can inflict. This means that the general needs to select allies in such a way that he can easily gain from 6 strikes of the Lightning Lord and effectively reveal his characteristics during the battle.
Versatility of positions. Jing Yuan is capable of occupying both the role of a main DPS character and a secondary, ing hero focused on striking single targets.
Undemanding to eidolons and signature light cone. The General is a DPS character who feels comfortable with both epic and rare weapon cards. A similar story with additional constellations - the character performs well on E0.

Best builds for Jing Yuan in Honkai: Star Rail

Jing Yuan acts as the main DPS character, and can also take the position of an additional damage dealer if necessary. Important stats for a hero are crits (critical damage and crit chance) and Attack Power. Among other things, it is important to pay attention electric damage bonus и speeds. Thus, it will be possible to bring the general’s final damage to pleasant numbers that will be impressive during the age of any high-level content: be it the floors of the “Hall of Oblivion” or the rooms of the “Virtual Universe”. Next, we will take a closer look at how to collect Jing Yuan in Honkai: Star Rail.

Recommended characteristic values

Key features to look for in relics:

Relic	Main characteristic
Head	HP (permanent)
Arms	Attack Power (Permanent)
Body	Crete. damage or crit chance. hits
Legs	Speed (priority), attack power (situational)
planar sphere	Bonus electric damage
Connecting rope	Attack Power (priority), energy recovery (situational)

If we talk about additional stats, then priority should be given to:

Crete. chance and crit. damage;
strength of attack;
speed;
situationally - penetration effect.

The optimal totals obtained from cave relics and planar jewelry, which are recommended to have on the character:

Attack Power: from 3 units;
speed: from 120 units. and higher;
energy recovery: 100-120%;
health: from 3 units. and higher;
Crete. chance: from 50% and above;
Crete. damage: from 150% and above.

Due to the fact that the hero receives additional increases in crit chance. hit during the process of pumping traces, you can abandon the usual ratio of crit. chance to crit. damage (1:2), placing more emphasis on boosting crit. damage

Ultimate Light Cone [Weapon]

When choosing a weapon for Jing Yuan, that this character adheres to the Path of Erudition. Therefore, the light cone should be appropriate for his role in the squad, that is, it should also apply to "Erudition". Otherwise, the weapon's active skill will not work.

Characteristics, which, in turn, are worth paying attention to:

Attack Power;
Crete. damage;
critical chance blow.

A great addition would be effects aimed at increasing damage from skills or an ultimate ability, as in the case of the signature light cone of the Xianzhou Alliance General - "Before dawn".

Name	Description	Recommendation
Before dawn ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ HP 48-1058 ATK 26-582 DEF 21-463	Light Cone Skill - "long night". Increases crit. owner's damage 36-60%. Increases the damage of the wearer's skill and ultimate by 18-30%. After using a skill or superpower, the wearer gains the Sleeping Body status. After using a bonus attack, the Sleeping Body status is consumed, and the damage dealt by the bonus attack is increased by 48-80%.	Jing Yuan's signature light cone, which provides an increase to the character's important attacking characteristics: not only increases the hero's overall damage, but also significantly increases critical damage (a very rare advantage for “cards”). An ideal option for a general, outshining any Rare, Epic, or Legendary quality light cones. The reason is that it also enhances the Lightning Lord's contribution to the battlefield, since the summoned creature's hits represent "bonus attack".
But hope is priceless ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ HP 43-953 ATK 26-582 DEF 24-529	Crete. chance increases by 16-28%. If critical the damage of the weapon card carrier exceeds 120%, the damage of his bonus attack increases by 16-28% for every additional 20%. This effect can stack up to 4 times. Additional Bonus - At the start of battle or after landing a hit for 2 turns, allows a super or bonus attack to be ignored 16-28% enemy defense.	One of the best light cones on Jing Yuan, second only to his signature weapon. The weapon gives the hero additional crit. chance and when gaining 140-200% crit. damage increases the Lightning Lord's damage. The second half of the effect of ignoring enemy defenses will be difficult to take advantage of, as Jing Yuan usually needs to use a skill rather than a basic attack. However, even without this, the character will have time to perform an enhanced superpower in the first couple of turns, especially if there is Tingyun on the team.
Night on the milky way ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ HP 52-1164 ATK 26-582 DEF 18-396	Light Cone Skill - "swarm of meteorites". For each enemy on the battlefield, increase the wearer's attack power by 9-15% and stacks up to 5 times. If there is any enemy with a vulnerability pierced, the damage dealt by the wearer will be increased by 30-50% for 1 turn.	A good 5-star alternative, which is suitable for clearing groups of enemies - for example, you can equip it for ing virtual universe, daily farming of resources in the open world and closing some other daily/weekly activities.
Stop, just a moment ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ HP 48-1058 ATK 26-582 DEF 21-463	Light Cone Skill - "Knight's Pilgrimage». Crete. The owner's damage increases by 36-60%. When he uses his superpower, the damage it deals is increased by 0.36-0.6% for each unit of the maximum energy of the carrier. This effect can stack up to max. 180 units energy.	Offers quite serious increases to such an attacking characteristic as crit. damage, and also increases the overall damage caused by the superpower, which, in cooperation with the “Frozen Salsotto” set of planar decorations, will significantly increase the contribution of Jing Yuan himself within the squad.
Geniuses’ Repose ⭐⭐⭐⭐ HP 38-846 ATK 21-476 DEF 18-396	Light Cone Skill - "Each has its own role". Increases the wearer's attack power by 16-32%. After defeating the enemy, crit. wearer's damage is increased by 24-48% for 3 moves.	A light cone aimed at increasing one of the main characteristics of Jing Yuan - Attack Power, from which the Lord of Lightning is also "played". A nice additional bonus is an increase in crit. damage, which is especially useful if you are having trouble finding this stat on planar decorations and cave relics.
Day of the Universe Fall ⭐⭐⭐⭐ HP 43-952 ATK: 21-476 DEF 15-330	Cone Skill - "Strategy". The owner's attack power increases by 16-24%. If, after the owner's attack, at least 2 targets have a corresponding vulnerability, crit. The owner's damage increases by 20-40% for 2 turns.	The weapon permanently increases attack power, and after attacks can increase critical damage. When playing with a cone, it is important to take into the number of enemies and their vulnerabilities in order to get all the “card” buffs, and also use the skill to attack in an area at least once every 2 turns.
The Seriousness of Breakfast ⭐⭐⭐⭐ HP: 38-846 ATK: 21-476 DEF: 18-396	Light Cone Skill - "Everyone get ready". Increases wearer's damage by 12-24%. For each enemy defeated, the wearer's attack power is increased by 4-8%, stacks up to 4 times.	An analogue of the above-mentioned 4⭐ light cone, which is aimed at increasing outgoing damage. It loses to the options already discussed, since for the ive weapon skill to fully work, it is important that the battle takes place against several enemies. Only in this way is it possible to realize a 4-fold increase in attack power.
Endless Computing (F2P) ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ HP 48-1058 ATK 24-529 DEF 18-396	Attack power is increased by 8-12%. After performing a strike, the attack power is additionally increased by 4-8% for each enemy attacked. This effect can stack up to 5 times and lasts until the wearer's next turn. If the strike was made on 3 or more targets, the owner's speed will increase by additional 8-16% for 1 turn.	Due to the nature of Jing Yuan's mechanics, this legendary weapon is a good choice, but inferior to the four-star cones "The Day of the Fall of the Universe" and "The Importance of Breakfast", which are also obtained for free. The weapon "card" is suitable only as a temporary alternative in case of absence or busy higher-level cones. Moreover, part of the effect will not work against 1-2 enemies, which is why the bonus will be weak against bosses and sometimes even in oblivion hall.
The Birth of the Self ⭐⭐⭐⭐ HP 43-952 ATK 21-476 DEF 15-330	Light Cone Skill - "Virgin from a painting". Increases the damage dealt by the wearer's bonus attacks by 24-48%. If the current HP of the selected enemy is less than or equal to 50%, increases the damage dealt by bonus attacks by an additional 24-48%.	An epic cone of light aimed at empowering the Lightning Lord, whose strikes count as bonus attacks. If you don't have Jing Yuan's signature weapon in your inventory, it will be an ideal option both in the early and later stages of mastering the game.
Insight ⭐⭐⭐ HP 33-740 ATK 16-370 DEF 12-264	Light Cone Skill - "Genius". After using the owner's ultimate ability, increases attack power by 24-48% for 2 moves.	Jing Yuan's and Lightning Lord's damage in particular revolves around attack power. Since the weapon skill buff lasts for 2 turns, this light cone is a good option early on in the game.
Let the world not subside ⭐⭐⭐⭐ HP: 38-846 ATK: 21-476 DEF 18-396	Light Cone Skill - "sound power". At the beginning of the battle, the owner restores 20-32 units energy, and the damage from superpower is increased by 32-64%.	signature light cone Serval, which is a good alternative for Jing Yuan. Restores energy for the super ability at the beginning of the battle and increases the damage from the ult. If Tingyun or Hoho is present in the squad, the implementation of the feature of the weapon in question will be carried out in a more effective manner, since the heroines restore energy, providing the opportunity to use the ultimate ability more often.
key ⭐⭐⭐ HP 33-740 ATK 16-370 DEF 12-264	Light Cone Skill - "Insight". When using a skill, additionally restores 8-12 units owner's energy. This effect can only be triggered once per turn.	A good 3⭐ alternative that will allow you to use your ultimate more often, which is good, because Bringer of Light directly affects the actions of the Lightning Lord.
Data Bank ⭐⭐⭐ HP 33-740 ATK 16-370 DEF 12-264	Light Cone Skill - "Erudition". Increases the wearer's ultimate damage by 28-56%.	The significance of the Light Cone is the increased damage from Bringing Light. Recommended for use if you do not have a more effective weapon in your inventory.

Best Relics [artifacts]

When choosing artifacts for Jing Yuan, it is worth paying attention to the selection of both cave relics and planar ornaments: the main characteristics are identical to light cones. The ideal option is relics that provide an increase in key character bonuses, which include:

electrical damage;
Crete. damage;
crit chance. hit;
Attack Power;
speed.

Speed is a stat that determines how quickly and often (compared to other party and enemies) the hero will make his move. The higher this characteristic, the higher the position of the character at the start of the battle.

However, in the process of choosing artifacts, you should not give high priority to the characteristic in question: in which case, it is compensated by s in the squad. For example, Armor.

Cave relics [main artifacts]

This effect can stack up to 8 times and lasts for 3 turns. The effect is removed the next time you use a bonus attack.

Since the summoned creature is the main and constant source of damage, the increase in damage from bonus attacks will be an excellent acquisition for the character.

The owner's damage dealt to enemies with at least 2/3 debuffs increases by 8%/12% respectively. After the owner applies a Debuff to an enemy, the above effects are increased by 100% for 1 turn.	A good replacement for the kit above. When attacking enemies with negative statuses, the damage dealt and critical parameters increase, but since the general does not have built-in debuffing skills, the set is implemented exclusively with the help of allies.
Braveness of the Wind	2 parts: Increases attack power by 12%. 4 parts: Increases crit. 6% chance. After the owner performs a bonus attack, the damage of his superpower increases by 30%. This effect lasts for 1 turn.	A good alternative that goes well with the “Frozen Salsotto” planar relic set for gaining crit. chance and damage from the ultimate.

Planar Ornaments [Additional Artifacts]

Name	Effects	Recommendation
Inert Salsotto	2 parts: increases crit. owner's chance 8%. If crit. owner's chance is not lower 50%, the damage of his ultimate and bonus attack is increased by 15%.

Duran Wolf Dynasty	2 parts: When allies make a bonus attack, the owner gains 1 lvl. “Merit” status, which stacks up to 5 times. Every level The “Merit” status increases the damage dealt by the bonus attack of the wearer of the planar set by 5%. Upon reaching level 5. Crete. The owner's damage is increased by an additional 25%.	One of the best sets for Jing Yuan, since when the full effect is achieved, his bonus attack and crit. damage will increase by 25%.

Wonderful Banana Paradise	2 parts: Increases critical damage by 16%. If there are creatures summoned by the owner on the battlefield, critical damage is increased by an additional 32%.

However, to do this, it is necessary to increase Jing Yuan's speed to required minimum number (135 units). Note: attempt to bring the characteristic to max. values for the sake of 18%, in turn, will be an error, since it is important for the general to maintain a balance between attack performance and damage in general.

The owner's chance increases by 12%.	A situational set that allows you to optimize two parameters at once. Increases attack power as a permanent ive, and in units with a second follower of the Path of Erudition it gives an increase to critical chance. It is beneficial to use the set in combination with other Erudites, but in teams with heroes of other classes it is better to take a closer look at more universal options.
Space Sealing Station	2 parts: Increases the wearer's attack power by 12%. If the owner's speed is not less 120, attack power is additionally increased by 12%.	A good alternative to increase Jing Yuan's overall damage and his Lightning Lord's hits. Equip it if you don't have Frozen Salsotto with good stats.
Barren Sigonia	2 parts: Crete The owner's chance increases by 4%. Defeating an enemy increases crit. damage to the owner by 4%. This effect can stack up to 10 times.	When the conditions are met, the set will increase critical damage to +40%. Set effect levels are gained after each victory over a monster, including team , and stack up to 10 times. Therefore, the full ive can be activated in a limited number of combat activities: when ing the Sepal and "Pure Fiction". The situational kit should be considered solely as a replacement while participating in these tests.

Detachments

First of all, for Jing Yuan’s squad it is worth considering characters, who with their skills either enhance the power of the group, or, on the contrary, weaken opponents by imposing various negative effects. Afterwards, you can pay attention to heroes capable of attacking with powerful explosive blows together with the Lord of Lightning: both representatives of the Path of Hunting and followers of the Paths of Destruction and Erudition are suitable.

Aventurine	Preservation	Imaginary	Places shields and during the battle, renews them after activating a superpower, as well as performing a bonus attack. Virtually no demands on skill points. In addition to providing protective functions, it helps the squad with damage. The ideal squad for a character is the cooperation of several heroes who can perform a bonus attack. In other teams he is just as good, but takes bonus shots a little less often.
Fire. hero	Preservation	Fiery	A good representative of the Path of Conservation: attracts the attention of enemies, protects allies, effectively breaks through fire vulnerability. An important nuance - often units with a Pathfinder (Fire) need additional from the heroes of the Path of Abundance.

How to play as Jing Yuan

Jing Yuan is a Path of Erudite damage dealer that deals massive damage with area of effect skills. Its main advantage is lightning lord. He interacts well with most characters: he can act as a main DPS hero or be a for other damage dealers.

Rotation

Designate an “ideal” rotation for revealing the hero in real life turn-based combat quite problematic. However, there are rules that should be followed if you want to “squeeze” maximum efficiency from the general:

Before the fight starts, use the technique "Summoning the Spirit".
If you have heroes in your squad, apply various positive effects to the group in advance by activating the appropriate abilities. For example, if the team has Bailu, use her technique to activate ive healing on the squad.
Keep track of the Lightning Lord's attacks. Ideally, at the time of the summoned creature's turn, have max. number of hits, that is 10. that Jing Yuan's skill increases the number of hits of the Lightning Lord on 2, and superpower - on 3.
During battle, use the skills of heroes to buff Jing Yuan or weaken enemies. For example, increase the attack power of a general through a skill Welta.
that the ultimate ability after accumulation can be used at any time during the battle, regardless of the order of moves recorded in the on the left. However, you should not give away the super skill thoughtlessly: it is mainly activated in order to “finish off” the number of Lightning Lord’s strikes to a certain number: the most attractive stacks are 6, 8 and 10.

Conclusion on the character

Jing Yuan is a strong damage dealer who is able to play the role of a main DPS character and act as a for more leveled heroes who adhere to the Path of the Hunt or, for example, the Path of Destruction. The head of the Cloud Knights, Lofu Xianzhou, feels great even in a squad with epic heroes. As an additional "plus": it does not require serious investments, which is convenient if you are exploring space as an F2P player. It is enough to find good artifacts and equip epic weapons for the general to demonstrate high damage numbers.
