Jinshi, a formidable five-star Spectro DPS character, is set to make her debut in Wuthering Waves version 1.1 on June 28, 2024. Armed with a powerful Broadblade, she unleashes deadly combos using her unique Forte Circuit and Resonance Skill. Notably, she will be the first character in the game to disregard crucial combat mechanics, specifically the Concerto mechanics.
If you have made the decision to meet with her, then it is important to be aware of her builds beforehand.
1. How to Build Jinshi in Wuthering Waves?
To effectively utilize Jinshi, it is essential to have a high-quality weapon, her optimal echo set with adequate stats, and a strong team composition. Additionally, maintaining a balanced CRIT Stat on her (ideally 60 CRIT Rate and 170+ CRIT DMG) is crucial.
Greatest Weapons- Years of Gathering
The most exceptional set of echoes is the Celestial Light collection.
Priority of Trace- Forte Circuit and Resonance Ability
Top Team- Jinshi, Yinlin, Verina
2. Top Weapon Choices
Jinshi’s most powerful weapon is her renowned Ages of Harvest Broadblade. With a high base attack of 588 and a CRIT Rate of 24.3%, this weapon is equipped with a unique passive called Blessing of Ages. This passive can stack up to four times when performing basic attacks and is then used up when executing a Resonance Skill. Additionally, this feature significantly boosts Elemental Damage of all kinds, including Spectro, making it a perfect complement to Jinshi’s abilities.
The other Broadblade choices are as follows:
| Category | Broadblade | Stats |
| 5-star | Verdant Summit | 588 ATK, 48.6% CRIT DMG |
| 5-star | Lustrous Razor | 588 ATK, 36.45 ATK% |
| 4-star | Autumntrace | 413 ATK, 20.25% CRIT Rate |
| 4-star | Helios Cleaver | 413 ATK, 30.38 ATK% |
| 3-star | Broadblade of Night | 325 ATK, 24.30 ATK% |
3. Top Echo Sets
The Celestial Light is not only the top choice for Jinshi, but also for any Spectro DPS. Its 2-piece set grants a 10% bonus to Spectro DMG, while the 5-piece set offers an impressive additional 30% bonus.
In case you do not have a decent 5-piece Celestial Light Set, you can still utilize either a 5-pc Lingering Tunes or a combination of 2-pc Celestial Light and 2-pc of another set.
3.1. Optimal Loadout
To achieve the highest damage output, arrange the echoes in the 4-3-3-1-1 cost format.
| Slot | Echo | Stats |
| 4 cost | Sentinel Jue- Calamity Class | CRIT Rate or CRIT DMG |
| 3 cost | Any On-Set Elite Class Echoes | Spectro DMG Bonus |
| 3 cost | Any On-Set Elite Class Echoes | Spectro DMG Bonus |
| 1 cost | Any On-Set Common Class Echoes | ATK% |
| 1 cost | Any On-Set Common Class Echoes | ATK% |
4. Jinshi ‘s Kit
Jinshi’s primary source of damage is her Forte Circuit and Elemental Skill. Whenever a team member attacks, Jinshi accumulates a stack called Incandescence, with a maximum of 40 stacks. By using her intro skill, she enters an enhanced state, and executing her basic attack sequence activates a second enhanced form, substantially boosting the damage of her Resonance Skill through the use of Incandescence stacks.
During this increased state, her Resonance Skill cooldown is refreshed. Additionally, employing Jinshi’s Resonance Skill in this second heightened state allows her to activate her Outro skill without consuming Concerto energy, although this can only be done once every twenty-five seconds.
5. Trace Priority
The order of priority for skills is as follows: FORTE CIRCUIT (Most Important), RESONANCE WeILL (Most Important), RESONANCE LIBERATION, and INTRO AND OUTRO WeILL (Not recommended).
6 Best Teams
At this point, you should be familiar with Jinshi’s kit and the fact that she relies on off-field support and sub-DPS. With this in mind, here are some recommended team compositions for her.
| DPS | SUB-DPS | HEALER |
| Gender | Taoqi• Shields• 38% Resonance Skill DMG Deepen | Verina/ Baizhi• 20% All DMG Deepen• 20% ATK buffVerina buffs the entire team, while Baizhi buffs the next character that swaps in |
