Tingyun | Honkai: Star Rail

Overview

Tingyun supports one Energy-using carry with Benediction, ATK and a targeted Ultimate battery.

Role

Single-target ATK, damage and Energy support.

Playstyle

Keep Benediction on the carry, use Basics between refreshes, and direct Ultimate Energy into a useful next attack.

Why It Works

Benediction lasts three turns and her Ultimate restores 50 Energy before E6. Her own attacks also trigger Benediction's additional damage.

Watch For

Only the latest Skill recipient keeps Benediction. Extra carry turns can require earlier refreshes, and Energy sent to a full bar is wasted.

Playstyle

Combat Flow

Apply Benediction before the carry attacks. Check its remaining duration as the carry takes turns, using Tingyun's Basics while it remains active. Use Ultimate when its Energy and damage buff enable the carry's next sequence, rather than automatically at a full Energy bar.

Key Notes

At Skill level 10, Benediction's ATK increase is capped at 25% of Tingyun's current ATK.
Jubilant Passage restores five Energy at the start of Tingyun's turn.
E1's SPD buff follows the Benediction ally's own Ultimate, not Tingyun's Ultimate.
Refreshing an active Benediction without a reason spends a Skill Point that could support the carry.
Do not treat an Energy battery as useful to every alternative Ultimate resource.

Build & Investment

Light Cones

Primary

Meshing Cogs

Her Basics can trigger extra Energy, at most once per turn. Incoming attacks can also trigger it; do not assume a fixed rotation without checking hits and superimposition.

Alternative

Dance! Dance! Dance!

Ultimate advances the whole team's actions. Time the advance around useful carry turns; the cone itself adds no Energy.

Alternative

A Grounded Ascent

Her single-ally Skill and Ultimate qualify for Energy, Hymn stacks and a Skill Point every two uses. Keep the target's buff duration in mind.

Relics

Primary

Sacerdos' Relived Ordeal

Both Skill and Ultimate target one ally, building up to two CRIT DMG stacks on that recipient.

Alternative

Messenger Traversing Hackerspace

Ultimate activates the four-piece team SPD buff for one turn. Account for it when the team uses a strict turn order.

Planars

Primary

Lushaka, the Sunken Seas

Provides Energy Regeneration Rate and boosts the first-slot carry's ATK when Tingyun is in another slot.

Alternative

Broken Keel

Reach 30% Effect RES to activate team CRIT DMG. Choose it for a CRIT carry when that threshold fits the build.

Build enough ATK for the selected carry's Benediction cap, then prioritize SPD and survival. Broken Keel adds a 30% total Effect RES requirement.

Eidolon Investment

E0 already supplies Benediction and the targeted Energy restore. Further Eidolons add useful conditions and resources without being needed for that core role.

Meshing Cogs supports Energy generation through Basics. The premium alternatives offer different resources or action timing; none replaces the need to maintain Benediction.

After the ally with Benediction uses their own Ultimate, that ally gains 20% SPD for one turn. This can alter a tuned turn order.

The Benediction ally restores five Energy after defeating an enemy, once per turn. Boss fights without kills cannot provide this recovery.

Ultimate restores ten additional Energy to its target, raising the base restoration from 50 to 60.

Teams

Recommended Teammates

Argenti

Argenti can use the targeted Energy toward his higher-cost Ultimate. Time it after checking his current Energy and the remaining enemies.

Yunli

Yunli uses Energy for Parry and enhanced Counters. Tingyun supplies ATK and damage buffs while Yunli still needs the right enemy attack timing.

Clara

Clara's Ultimate enhances her Counters and improves her chance of being attacked. Benediction and Energy support that plan; avoid disrupting the enemy attacks she needs.
