Tingyun is a powerful support character in Honkai: Star Rail that can increase the attack of her teammates and build up energy so that players can unleash powerful abilities.
When you’re building a team to use in the different challenges players find in HSR, you need to take into account your damage dealers and your support characters.
Support characters are vital for success and can tip the scales of your battle at a moment’s notice. This is why Tingyun is such a powerful character to pair up with your Main DPS.
Tingyun Honkai: Star Rail Guide
Best Overall Tingyun Honkai Star Rail Build & Team
The best Tingyun build focuses on her ATK and Energy Regen while using the Light Cone, “But The Battle Isn’t Over,” to boost the power of Skill and Ultimate.
| Build Type | Light Cone | Team Comp | Relic Build | Relic Stat Priority |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Support | But The Battle Isn’t Over (5-Star) | Seele (Main DPS), Bronya (Support), Tingyun (Support), Bailu (Healer) | 4 Piece Set: Musketeer of Wild Wheat 2 Piece Set: Fleet of the Ageless | Body: ATK% Feet: ATK% or SPD Planar Sphere: ATK% Link Rope: Energy Regen% or ATK% |
You want to raise Tingyun’s ATK% as much as possible because her Skill, Soothing Melody, builds off her ATK. This Skill increases her allies’ attack damage and can lead to incredibly powerful attacks.
If players do not have Seele, then any member of The Hunt can fit this team comp, like Dan Heng or Sushang.
The best team to build around Tingyun includes:
| Image | Character | Element | Role | Playstyle |
|---|---|---|---|---|
 | Seele (The Hunt) | Quantum | Main DPS | Seele is a powerful single-target Main DPS that could use Tingyun's abilities to increase her ATK and decimate the enemy team. With Bronya and Tingyun, Seele can attack up to 4 times in a row. |
 | Bronya (The Harmony) | Wind | Support | Bronya is one of the best units to use in Honkai Star Rail, and can her Skill increases the DMG of her allies and allows them to take action immediately. She can allow Seele to take more her turn earlier and with better damage. |
 | Bailu (The Abundance) | Lightning | Healer | Since this team is already very attack-oriented, Bailu can help heal you and your team and revive one downed ally per encounter. |
 | Tingyun (The Harmony) | Lightning | Support | Tingyun pairs up well with any single-target damage dealer, but Seele is currently the best one in the game and easily her greatest match. |
This is currently one of the most powerful builds in Honkai: Star Rail to use alongside the OP Seele single-target damage Main DPS.
Top 3 Best Light Cones for Tingyun
- Dance, Dance, Dance
| Image | Light Cone | Path | Rarity | Effects |
|---|---|---|---|---|
 | Dance! Dance! Dance! | The Harmony | ★★★★ | When the wearer uses their Ultimate, all allies' actions are Advanced Forward by 16/18/20/22/24%. |
This is a great Light Cone because Tingyun is constantly using her Ultimate, which means that your team’s action will frequently advance throughout a battle.
- Carve The Moon, Weave The Clouds
| Image | Light Cone | Path | Rarity | Effects |
|---|---|---|---|---|
 | Carve the Moon, Weave the Clouds! | The Harmony | ★★★★ | At the start of the battle and whenever the wearer's turn begins, one of the following effects is applied randomly: All allies' ATK increases by 10/12.5/15/17.5/20%, all allies' CRIT DMG increases by 12/15/18/21/24%, or all allies' Energy Regeneration Rate increases by 6/7.5/9/10.5/12%. The applied effect cannot be identical to the last effect applied, and will replace the previous effect. The applied effect will be removed when the wearer has been knocked down. Effects of the similar type cannot be stacked. |
Carve The Moon, Weave The Clouds is Tingyun’s signature 4-Star Light cone and applies random buffs to her team whenever her turn begins.
These buffs are helpful and can help your team gain their Ultimate faster or build up her ATK. It’s a great Light Cone, but it’s not as consistent due to the nature of its ability.
- But The Battle Isn’t Over
| Image | Light Cone | Path | Rarity | Effects |
|---|---|---|---|---|
 | But The Battle Isn't Over | The Harmony | ★★★★★ | Increases the wearer's Energy Regeneration Rate by 10/12/14/16/18% and regenerates 1 Skill Point when the wearer uses their Ultimate on an ally. This effect can be triggered after every 2 uses of the wearer's Ultimate. When the wearer uses their Skill, the next ally taking action (except the wearer) deals 30/35/40/45/50% more DMG for 1 turn(s). |
The overall best Light Cone for Tingyun is the “But The Battle Isn’t Over” because it increases her Energy Regen and the damage of her allies even more with her Skill.
It is by far the best Light Cone and boosts everything you’d want about Tingyun and her abilities.
Best Relic Set for Tingyun
The best Relic Set for Tingyun is a combination of the Musketeer of Wild Wheat 4-Piece Set and the Fleet of the Ageless 2-Piece Planar Set.
| Image | Relic | Set Items Needed | 2 Set Bonus | 4 Set Bonus | Where to Obtain |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
 | Musketerr of Wild Wheat | 4 | ATK increases by 10%. | The wearer's SPD increases by 6% and Basic ATK DMG increases by 10%. | Cavern of Corrosion, Weekly Bosses, or Relic Synthesize. |
 | Belobog of the Architects | 2 | Increases the wearer's Max HP by 12%. When the wearer's SPD reaches 120 or higher, all allies' ATK increases by 8%. | Not Used | Cavern of Corrosion, Weekly Bosses, or Relic Synthesize. |
This is because the Musketeer of Wild Wheat set will increase the ATK of Tingyun and her SPD. Allowing her to build up her Ultimate faster and use her Skill.
The Fleet of the Ageless 2-Piece Set also increases her SPD and her allies’ ATK. You want Tingyun to be the ultimate support for her Stats by buffing your Main DPS.
So you want to build her ATK to increase the amount of attack she gives with her Skill, and you want to increase her Energy Regen so you can continuously use her Ultimate.
If you don’t have these relic sets, thankfully it’s relatively easy to come across them with the Caves of Corrosion.
Best F2P Light Cone & Team Comp
The best F2P Light Cone for Tingyun is the Meshing Cogs because it helps build up her Ultimate more quickly.
The best team to build around her in a F2P setting includes:
- Dan Heng
- Asta
- Tingyun
- Natasha
This is because Asta helps boost the SPD and ATK of Dan Heng, while Tingyun boosts his ATK, and Natasha keeps everyone alive.
