Tingyun, the Head Representative of the Whistling Flames in Honkai: Star Rail, is a charismatic and skilled character. Known for her silver-tongued nature and captivating storytelling, she excels in communication. Gameplay-wise, she is a Lightning element character on the harmony path and is widely considered as one of the top support characters among the 4-star roster.
With the ability to enhance her allies' ATK, DMG, and energy generation through her Ultimate, Tingyun is a valuable addition to versatile team compositions. Despite the different focus in their buffs, Tingyun and Bronya can synergize well together, making them an effective duo. As such, they also tend to benefit from same light cones. Fortunately, there are numerous light cone options available for both free-to-play and non-free-to-play players, providing a wide range of buffs to choose from that can be stacked over Tingyun's already exceptional buffs in Honkai: Star Rail.
5 Chorus
- Base ATK (LVL 80): 317
- Base DEF (LVL 80): 264
- Base HP (LVL 80): 846
- Effect : After entering battle, increases the ATK of all allies by 8%/9%/10%/11%/12% . Effects of the same type cannot stack.
For F2P players without access to higher-tier light cones, the Chorus is an excellent choice. While obtainable through Gacha, it is a 3-star weapon, making it more accessible and easier to enhance. Its unconditional ATK buff for all allies is particularly valuable, especially in the early stages of the game. With its potential to greatly benefit the team, the Chorus proves to be an ideal light cone option for players looking to maximize their effectiveness without relying on higher rarity weapons. This especially becomes the case when players need to utilize multiple Harmony characters with limited options to choose from.
4 Dance! Dance! Dance!
- Base ATK (LVL 80): 423
- Base DEF (LVL 80): 396
- Base HP (LVL 80): 952
- Effect : When the wearer uses their Ultimate, all allies’ actions are Advanced Forward by 16%/18%/20%/22%/24% .
Tingyun, with her exceptional speed and energy generation potential, finds Dance! Dance! Dance! to be a suitable weapon choice. Its alignment with her first Eidolon, which boosts the speed of a blessed ally, enhances Tingyun's overall performance. This light cone allows Tingyun to focus on an additional buff, not readily available through her kit, making it an excellent option for challenging battles against opponents with high speed or advanced abilities.
3 Past and Future
- Base ATK (LVL 80): 423
- Base DEF (LVL 80): 396
- Base HP (LVL 80): 952
- Effect : When the wearer uses their Skill, then the next ally taking action (except the wearer) deals 16%/20%/24%/28%/32% increased DMG for 1 turn(s).
Past and Future is an optimal 4-star light cone available to F2P players upon clearing enough memory stages and can be obtained from the Forgotten Hall by using Lucent Afterglow. It is currently the best F2P light cone option for Tingyun, who excels in her speed and energy generation capabilities. However, players should be cautious when using this weapon as it requires careful planning between character Speed values to ensure that the DPS character follows Tingyun's Skill. Tingyun's high speed value makes this less of a concern, but players should also monitor the speed of their Hunt path character, as they tend to have similarly high speed values.
2 Carve the Moon, Weave the Clouds
- Base ATK (LVL 80): 476
- Base DEF (LVL 80): 330
- Base HP (LVL 80): 952
- Effect : One of the following effects is applied randomly at the start of combat and whenever the wearer takes action: Increase all allies’ ATK by 10%/12.5%/15%/17.5%/20% , increase all allies’ CRIT DMG by 12%/15%/18%/21%/24% , or increase all allies’ Energy Regeneration Rate 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 a Nameless Honor light cone that is highly recommended for players who have purchased the Nameless Glory and reach level 30 of this particular battle pass. The light cone features Tingyun's artwork and is specifically designed for her, with all of its unique effects being stackable with Tingyun's own buffs. While one of its effects is triggered randomly and therefore not entirely consistent, all of the effects are beneficial, making it a worthwhile addition to Tingyun's arsenal. It also has a higher base ATK than most of the other Harmony light cones of same rarity, allowing Tingyun to be able to buff the teammates with a higher number since she scales with ATK.
1 But The Battle Isn't Over
- Base ATK (LVL 80): 529
- Base DEF (LVL 80): 463
- Base HP (LVL 80): 1164
- Effect : Increases the wearer’s Energy Regeneration Rate by 8%/10%/12%/14%/16% 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 deals 30%/37.5%/45%/52.5%/60% more DMG for 1 turn(s).
But The Battle Isn't Over, Bronya's signature 5-star light cone, is currently the best Harmony path option available. Fortunately, players who possess this light cone but not Bronya can still effectively utilize it on Tingyun. It enables Tingyun to enhance her team's buffs further while facilitating easier access to her own ultimate through its Energy Regeneration rate. The high base ATK of this 5-star light cone also complements Tingyun's ATK scaling. However, if players have access to Bronya herself, it is recommended to equip it on her instead of Tingyun, as it synergizes better with Bronya's abilities as a support character.
Honkai: Star Rail is now available on Android, iOS, and PC. A PlayStation version is in development.
