Best Jiaoqiu Build Guide

Support Build - Debuffs

Stat Targets

  • Effect Hit Rate 140% / 180% when using the Light Cone Those Many Springs
  • SPD Jiaoqiu can take any SPD breakpoint, as long as he acts before the DPS in the turn order.

Jiaoqiu is best built with plenty of Effect Hit Rate and SPD, so he can apply Ashen Roast to enemies before they act. The Sprightly Vonwacq set can push Jiaoqiu to the front of the action order, which lets him apply his debuffs sooner.

If you use Jiaoqiu in DoT focused teams, he can run Prisoner in Deep Confinement and Pan-Cosmic Commercial Enterprise to deal a lot of damage with Ashen Roast.

Jiaoqiu needs at least 140% Effect Hit Rate to maximize the effect of his “Scorching Heart” Ascension Trace. If you have Jiaoqiu’s Light Cone Those Many Springs, it is best to reach 180% Effect Hit Rate so its DEF reduction debuff lands reliably

For SPD, Jiaoqiu can sit at any breakpoint, as long as he acts before your DPS in the turn order.
