Looking for the best build for Yun Jin in Genshin Impact? She’s one of the new characters to arrive in Teyvat in the 2.4 update, alongside fellow polearm-wielder, Shenhe. But unlike the Cryo character, four-star Yun Jin uses the Geo element to shield herself and damage her enemies.
There’s plenty to keep you busy with the new update. The new zone Enkanomiya is accessible once you’ve collected the key sigils to unlock it, and there’s a new Archon quest too. But if you’re keen to know more about this Geo polearm-wielder, here’s what we know about Genshin Impact Yun Jin and her abilities.
Builds
The best Genshin Impact Yun Jin build
As Yun Jin can offer strong attack buffs for the party, building her as a support role feels like a solid choice. Her Elemental Burst, Cliffbreaker’s Banner offers bonus damage to your team and is based on Yun Jin’s defense stat.
Support
This five-star weapon increases Yun Jin’s maximum HP, giving her shields more strength and an attack bonus based on 0.8% of her Max HP. The attack bonus is increased by an additional 1% if her overall HP drops below 50%.
Another option is the four-star polearm Deathmatch. This offers an Energy Recharge bonus, meaning Yun Jin will be able to unleash her Elemental Burst ability more often, increasing the party’s overall damage.
- Artifacts: (4) Husk of Opulent Dreams
The two-piece for this artifact set increases Yun Jin’s defense by 30%, which in turn will increase the damage output of the Flying Cloud Flag Formation buff from her Elemental Burst. Her defense and Geo damage is further increased by the four-set.
Other options are the two-set Archaic Petra for the Geo damage bonus or the two-set Defender’s Will if you’re struggling with a lower defense stat.
How to unlock
How to get Yun Jin in Genshin Impact
You can wish for Yun Jin right now, thanks to the 2.4 update but you may want to hold off, depending on what other character’s you’ve got your sights on. The Fleeting Colors In Flight event which kicks off on January 25 allows you to unlock any four-star Liyue character if you complete certain quests. As Yun Jin is from Liyue, this is an excellent way to save those Primogems for the generally more powerful five-star characters.
If you want to stick with the traditional way, Yun Jin accompanies both Shenhe and Xiao as part of their banners—that’s ‘The Transcendent One Returns’ and ‘Invitation to Mundane Life’, respectively. Both wish events are now live and will run until the later part of the month, most likely until January 25.

Glaze Lilies are plants found in the Liyue region. They’re most commonly found in Yujing Terrace at Liyue Harbor and in and around Qingce Village. The Mask items are drops from hilichurl and samachurl enemies, which can be found in all regions.
