Jean’s elemental skill and burst allow her to deal Anemo damage to opponents along with the capability to heal the entire party. Jean's best builds are named after her lore titles, where the Dandelion Knight build primarily focuses on support and the Lionfang Knight build focuses on DPS.

Dandelion Knight (Anemo support build)

This build has a primary focus on Jean’s elemental burst Dandelion Breeze, which will burst heal all the party members and shred elemental resistance. It is important to note that Jean’s healing is scaled off of her attack.

Regarding weapon choices, players can pick the following:

Skyward blade (Energy Recharge)
Festering Desire (Energy Recharge)
Favonius Sword (Energy Recharge)
Sacrificial Sword (Energy Recharge)
Amenoma Kageuchi (ATK%)
Lions Roar (ATK%)

When it comes to artifacts, the four-piece set of Viridescent Venerer is the bread and butter for a support Jean since they are usually used for the 40% elemental resistance shred. Other sets that she can capitalize on are:

Noblesse Oblige (four-piece set)
Ocean-Hued Clam (four-piece set)
Two-piece sets of Viridescent Venerer and Emblem of Severed Fates

Lionfang Knight (Anemo DPS build)

This DPS build focuses on Jean's damage-dealing capabilities while still retaining some of her healing abilities.

Regarding weapon choices, players can pick these:

Primordial Jade Cutter (Crit-rate)
Mistsplitter Reforged (Crit damage)
Aquila Favonia (Physical damage bonus)
Blackcliff Longsword (Crit damage)
The Black Sword (Crit-rate)
Prototype Rancour (Physical damage bonus)

Jean DPS is a powerhouse who has yet to have an artifact set with a suitable four-piece set bonus. Players can run their own permutations on any of these artifact two-piece set bonuses to figure out which combination works best for them:

Gladiator’s Finale/ Shimenawa Reminiscence
Bloodstained Chivalry
Pale Flame
Viridescent Venerer
