Tingyun
Who is Tingyun?
Tingyun is a 4★ Lightning buffer following the Harmony Path. She buffs a single ally's ATK via her Skill (Soothing Melody), and her Ultimate grants a massive instant Energy refund (50 Energy) plus bonus Lightning DMG to the next target hit. She is widely regarded as the best 4★ support in the game — enabling one-rotation Ultimates for any DPS and remaining endgame-relevant years after release. Source: prydwen.gg.

📊 Substats Priority
👥 Best Teams
Any hypercarry DPS + Tingyun + second support + sustain. She is universal — especially valuable with Jingliu, Jing Yuan, Seele, and other burst-DPS who want fast Ultimates.
F2P Verdict
Standard pool — always available. E2 restores 10 HP to the buffed ally on attack (minor). E6 makes her Ultimate grant 10 more Energy (60 total) — a significant upgrade worth farming. Even E0 she is exceptional.
Frequently Asked Questions
Is Tingyun still good in 2026?
Yes — her Energy injection via Ultimate enables one-rotation DPS ultimates and she remains a top 4★ support despite power creep. Robin and Sunday are stronger 5★ alternatives but Tingyun is always competitive.
Who benefits most from Tingyun?
Burst DPS who need Energy fast — Jing Yuan, Jingliu, Seele, and any character whose performance depends on frequent Ultimates. Her 50 Energy (60 at E6) is the fastest Energy injection available from a 4★.
