Lynette Guide and Best Builds for Genshin Impact

This is our recommended way to build Lynette. Lynette's Burst allows her to create a Booglecat Box which will deal Anemo DMG while absorbing another element to deal corresponding DMG, and it also taunts nearby enemies.

For this Lynette Off-Field DPS build we highly recommand you go for Favonius Sword because of Lynette's high Energy Requirements! Any other weapon with Energy Recharge as the main stat is a viable option. However, using anything else will make it hard to hit her requirements.

For this Lynette Off-Field DPS build the artifact choice is rather flexible. For general use, Viridescent Venerer is still one of the best options. However, if you have another Anemo character in the team that already wears this set, you can focus on a set that will provide more personal damage to Lynette. In this case, Emblem of Severed Fate is the best option with the high energy recharge it provides and the Burst DMG increases.

This Lynette build will require you to get at least 200% Energy Recharge in order to use her Burst every rotation. If you play her as the solo Anemo and without Favonius Sword, aim for 240%. Playing Lynette with other Anemo units, you can lower the requirements to 160%.

This second build for Lynette will focus on her reaction damage. The goal will be to boost her own swirl damage, and provide elemental buffs to the rest of your team!

For a reaction support build, Lynette's best-in-slot weapon is Freedom-Sworn. It provides more Elemental Mastery and provides teammates with increased ATK. Iron Sting is a good craftable option if you already meet her Energy requirements.

Viridescent Venerer is the best-in-slot set for a reaction support build for Lynette. It increases her Swirl damage and provides RES Shred to her team.

The Energy requirements remain similar to her previous build. As the sole Anemo unit, aim for +200% Energy Recharge. If you play her as the solo Anemo and without Favonius Sword, aim for 240%. Of course if you play Lynette with other Anemo units, you can lower the requirements to 160%.

This On-Field Lynette build requires you to have her C6. Lynette's C6 grants her an Anemo infusion and a 20% Anemo DMG bonus, which allows her to perform as an On-field DPS.

If you built Lynette as an on-field DPS, you want to focus on a more CRIT Rate or CRIT DMG oriented weapon. Primordial Jade Cutter and Mistsplitter Reforged are some of the best options.

For an on-field Lynette build you can still use Viridescent Venerer as she will still take advantage of it. However, Marechaussee Hunter is another great option in this specific case. Lynette also has an HP draining mechanic, so she can make use of the passive and the CRIT DMG bonus.

On-field Lynette's build has a bit less energy requirements than the other builds, you can aim around 150% only. SInce you have her C6 for this build, you have access to the second charge of her skill provided by her C4, which allows for more energy particle production.

Lynette requires a range of materials to ascend to the 6th ascension. Starting from the second ascension she gains additional Anemo Damage as she levels, giving a total of 24% Bonus Anemo Damage at the final ascension. The total cost to upgrade all ascensions is:

Listed below is each talent and a brief explanation of how they work.

To upgrade a single talent to level 10, it costs:

Lynette's gameplay completely changes with her C6 Watchful Eye, adding Anemo DMG to her Normal Attacks. While she can perform moderately well without her C6, Lynette's C6 unlocks her ability to perform as a on-field damage dealer and reaction driver by infusing her attacks with boosted Anemo damage.
