Charged Attack: Consumes a certain amount of Stamina to lunge forward, dealing damage to opponents along the way. Plunging Attack: Plunges from mid-air to strike the ground below, damaging opponents along the path and dealing AoE DMG upon impact.
Elemental Skill Opening_Flourish_Yun_Jin_Characters_Genshin_Impact.png Opening Flourish Ms. Yun may just be acting out fights on stage, but her skills with the spear are real enough to defend against her foes. Press: Flourishes her polearm in a cloud-grasping stance, dealing Geo DMG. Hold: Takes up the Opening Flourish stance and charges up, forming a shield. DMG Absorption is based on Yun Jin’s Max HP and has 150% effectiveness against all Elemental DMG and Physical DMG. The shield lasts until she finishes unleashing her Elemental Skill. When the skill is released, when its duration ends, or when the shield breaks, Yun Jin will unleash the charged energy as an attack, dealing Geo DMG. Based on the time spent charging, it will either unleash an attack at Charge Level 1 or Level 2.
Elemental Burst Cliffbreakers_Banner_Yun_Jin_Characters_Genshin_Impact.png Cliffbreaker’s Banner Deals AoE Geo DMG and grants all nearby party members a Flying Cloud Flag Formation. Flying Cloud Flag Formation: When Normal Attack DMG is dealt to opponents, Bonus DMG will be dealt based on Yun Jin’s current DEF. The effects of this skill will be cleared after a set duration or after being triggered a specific number of times. When one Normal Attack hits multiple opponents, the effect is triggered multiple times according to the number of opponents hit. The number of times that the effect is triggered is counted independently for each member of the party with Flying Cloud Flag Formation.

Builds

Yun Jin is a support character focused on buffing any other party members who focus on normal attacks as their main source of damage. Due to her Elemental Burst buffing the teams normal attacks by up to 30 stacks which which also scales with her defence stat, she is only good in specific team setups.
