| Desc. | Jianxin is a versatile unit that can be used either as a Main DPS, Sub-DPS, or Support depending on your fancy, although she excels more as either a Sub-DPS or Support because of her heal and shield-heavy kit. What makes her an outstanding support unit is her Outro Skill, which improves the next character's Resonance Liberation DMG. | |
