Line characteristics: what increases with elevation

Line's main stat - crit chance. hits, which increases as the character ascends. In parallel with this, HP indicators are pumped, attack power и of protection. The exact values ​​of the characteristics are presented in the table.

Lyney's abilities

All of Lyney's skills focus on dealing damage to Pyro with ranged weapons, allowing him to attack from a safe distance. He uses to destroy his enemies. charged shots,skill иultbeing on the battlefield most of the time. Due to the fact that Lyney receives buffs from the Pyro status on opponents and the presence of allies of a similar element, he is especially well shown in a mono-elemental team.

Next, we will analyze in detail how Linya's abilities work and in what order they are recommended to be pumped. In addition, we will consider the constellations and highlight the most useful for increasing the effectiveness of the hero.

Basic skills (active skills)

• Card Power Swapping (Normal/Charged/Drop Attack)

Normal attack: fires 4 consecutive bow shots.

Charged Attack: fires a more accurate shot imbued with the power of the flame. Depending on the charge level, the effect of the arrow changes:

• Charge Level 1: Fires an arrow that deals Pyro damage.
• Charge Level 2: Fires a prop arrow that deals damage to Pyro and summons Laughing Cathat on impact.

After firing a charge level 2, if Lin has more than 60% HP, he sacrifices 20% of his maximum health and gains 1 level of Surplus Props. The effect stacks up to 5 times and disappears after 30 seconds. after Lyney leaves the fight. At the same time, HP cannot be lower than 60%.

Plunging Attack: fires a hail of arrows and deals physical damage in an area upon landing.

Laughing Cathat:

• Attracts the attention of opponents. Each enemy can only be distracted once every 1 seconds.
• The durability of the hat depends on Linya's maximum health.
• If the hat is destroyed or runs out of time, it fires a Pyrotechnic projectile at the nearest target, dealing fire damage.
• Only 1 hat can exist at a time (up to C1). The duration of existence is 4 seconds.

Arche: Pneuma – If the Props Arrow hits the position of a hit enemy, every 6 seconds a Soul Breath Needle will descend, dealing Pneuma damage to Pyro.

• Stunning Light (Elemental Skill)

Cooldown: 15 sec.

Removes his hat and sets off fireworks, consuming all levels of Surplus Props and attacking Pyro with area damage. The damage dealt increases depending on the number of levels removed. In addition, the character's health is restored depending on the maximum HP.

If there is a Laughing Cathat on the battlefield, it will explode and deal AoE damage to the Pyro proportional to the damage of the Pyro Projectile. This explosion counts as charged attack damage.

• Grand Focus: Parade of Miracles (Elemental Explosion)

Cooldown: 15 sec.

Duration: 3 sec.

Energy consumption: 60.

Transforms into a Laughing Hatcat with a hat (The Laughing Cathat is another prop). When approaching enemies in this guise, it will cast down flames on them. Each enemy can take Pyro damage in this way no more than 1 time.

After the duration expires, she returns to her true form and fires a firework that deals area damage to Pyro, creates 1 Laughing Cat Hat, and grants 1 level of Surplus Props. Laughing Hatcat can be terminated at will.

The order of leveling abilities

Linya's main source of damage is prop arrows and Laughing Cathat, the damage of which depends on the level basic attack. Therefore, this ability is increased in the first place. Ultimate и skill are flowing in parallel. When there is a shortage of resources, we recommend giving priority to the elemental skill first, and then the explosion of the elements.

Passive skills

Constellations

The table below lists all the constellations:

The best constellations of Lyney: С1,С2и С6:

• If you open first constellation, 2 Laughing Cat Hats will be able to be present on the battlefield. At the same time, the illusionist will summon 2 Hats at once and receive an additional level of Excess Props when hit by a props arrow, which will increase the damage of a charged attack and an elemental skill.
• Second constellation for a short time increases crit. Line's damage by 20%, 40% or 60% depending on the time spent on the field.
• sixth constellation - A very strong constant that increases the damage dealt by prop arrows. DPS is approximately doubled due to the fact that Lyney fires an additional Pyrotechnic projectile.

With the exception of C5, absolutely all constants provide a good increase in damage. For example, C3 gives +3 levels to the basic attack of "Change Card Power". C4 reduces enemies' resistance to Pyro by 20%, which is extremely useful, especially in roast teams, since the effect does not only affect the attacks of Lyney himself.

If you are planning to invest in the awakening of the character, but do not donate to the game, we recommend that you stop at C1-C2.

Advantages and disadvantages of Line

Like any other character, Lyney has certain "pros" and "cons". It is important to take into account all the nuances of the hero in order to effectively use it in battle.

Leveling Line

This section discusses what materials are needed to level up Line to the maximum level.

Elevation

The following resources are needed to raise Ling:

Best builds for Lyney in Genshin Impact

The Illusionist from Fontaine specializes in dealing Pyro damage with charged attacks and takes the position of the main damage dealer. The specificity of the passive talent "Final Ovation", which gives a decent boost to damage, sets the direction for the frying squads. In this case, the assembly of Line is based on pumping through attack power, Crete. damage and crit chanceand elemental damage.

The character is able to play through reactions (Steam, Melt, Burn, and so on), but there are many other damage dealers, including epic ones, that will show themselves much better in such lineups. Lyney, on the other hand, offers a completely different gameplay and is most fully revealed in synergy with other Pyro heroes.

Another feature is that the illusionist loses HP and regenerates with the skill. The amount of health healed depends on the maximum HP, so this indicator can be found in sub-stats.

Recommended characteristic values

The table shows the recommended stats for the character:

Artifact	Main characteristic	Additional stats
Flower of Life	HP (permanent)	Crete. damage Crit chance. hits Attack Power % Energy recovery / HP
Feather of Death	Attack Power (Permanent)	Crete. damage Crit chance. hits Attack Power % Energy Recovery / Elemental Mastery
The sands of Time	Attack Power %	Crete. damage Crit chance. hits Energy recovery  HP / Elemental Mastery
space cup	Pyro Damage Bonus	Crete. damage Crit chance. hits Attack Power / Energy Recovery  HP / Elemental Mastery
Crown of Mind	Crete. damage / Crit Chance. hits	Crete. damage / Crit Chance. hits Attack Power % Energy recovery  HP / Elemental Mastery

The optimal values ​​of characteristics, taking into account weapons, artifacts and other bonuses:

• ATK: from 1600 units.
• Chance of crit and crit. damage: Ratio 1:2 (60 K/N and 120 K/L) and above.
• Energy recovery: from 130-140% (without Pyro allies), 120-130% (with Pyro).
• Elemental Mastery: from 150 units (when playing through reactions).

Best weapon

Line's weapons should be aimed at increasing damage charged attacks, critical damage и crit chanceAs well as attack power. If you're using your character in reaction-based units, you can use bows with elemental mastery.

Weapons for mono-pyro build

The most suitable bows for dealing pure Pyro damage (no reactions):

Name	Description	Recommendation
First great trick ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Basic attack: 46-608 Crete. damage: 14,4-66,2%	Increases the damage of a charged attack by 16-32%. Grants 1 level of Subterfuge for each character of the same element in the party as the equipped character (including the owner). Grants 1 level of Acting for each ally with a different element. When 1/2/3 levels of Subterfuge or more are active, attack power is increased by 16 (32)/32 (64)/48 (96)%. While acting at 1/2/3 levels or more, movement speed is increased by 4 (12)/7 (15)/10 (18)%.	Lyney's signature weapon. Increases the damage of unconditional charged shots, which already greatly boosts DPS. In addition, the bow provides a high crit boost. damage, increases attack power and movement speed. Considering that the attack is much more priority, it is advisable to use Lyney's signature in a squad with at least two Pyro heroes.
Aqua Simulacra  ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Basic attack: 44-542 Crete. damage: 19,2-88,2%	Increases HP by 16%-32%. If there are enemies near a hero equipped with this bow, the damage is increased by 20%-40%, even if he is not on the battlefield.	Strong bow with high crit. damage, passive increase in DPS and an increase in HP, which is also not superfluous for Linya, since the healing of the skill depends on max. HP. It is important to always stay within the area of ​​the passive effect (the distance is short), otherwise the weapon does not work as well as the options below.
Thundering Pulse ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Basic attack: 46-608 Crete. damage: 14.4-66.2%	Increases attack power by 20-40% and grants the power of the Thunder Emblem. At Emblem levels 1, 2 and 3, normal attack damage increases by 12-24%, 24-48%, or 40-80% respectively. A character gains 1 level of Storm Emblem in each of the following cases: When hit with a normal attack (the emblem lasts 5 seconds). When using an elemental skill (the emblem lasts 10 seconds). When the character's elemental energy is below 100% (the emblem will disappear when the elemental energy is fully restored) The duration of each Emblem level is calculated individually.	Even though most of Lini's damage comes from his charged attacks, the bow will still provide actual attack power and crit. damage. However, due to the not-so-suitable affix, the bow will perform worse than other legendary alternatives.
Heaven wing ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Basic attack: 48-674 Crit chance. hits: 4,8-22,1%	Increases critical damage by 20-40%. On hit with a chance 60-100% Deals 125% physical damage in a small area. The effect occurs every 4 seconds.	If you have this bow, it will be a great alternative to Thundering Pulse and Aqua Simulacrum. While the main stat doesn't mesh well with Lean's main stat (maybe overkill crit chance), the passive partly makes up for it. In addition, the weapon has a fairly high base attack.  If using Skyward Harp in combination with the Shadow Hunt set, the Artifact crown is recommended on a crit. damage.
polar Star ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Basic attack: 46-608 Crit chance. hits: 7,2-33,1%	Elemental Skill and Elemental Explosion damage is increased by 12-24%. Each time a normal, charged, elemental or ultimate attack hits the target, 1 level of the Star of the Polar Night effect is accumulated. Charge duration - 12 seconds. When accumulating 1-4 levels, the character's attack power increases by 10 (20)/20 (40)/30 (60)/48 (96)% respectively. Charges exist independently of each other.	Provides useful buffs to elemental damage and ultimate. Other than that, just like Thundering Pulse, you need to level up to activate the attack power buff. To get all 4 stacks of the Star of the Polar Night, use a normal attack at the beginning of the rotation and an elemental explosion around the middle. As in the previous case, it is advisable to put the crown in artifacts on crit. damage, especially if you use the Shadow Hunt set.
Amos’ Bow ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Basic attack: 46-608 Attack Power: 10,8-49,6%	Increases normal and charged attack damage by 12%-34%. Every 0,1 second of an arrow's flight from a normal or charged attack increases its damage by 8%-16%. The effect can stack up to 5 times.	Another good weapon from the standard banner. It's about 10% worse in overall damage than Skyward Harp, but it remains the best option, which gives a significant increase in attack power and charged attack damage, depending on how long the arrow flies. It becomes a little more difficult to balance stats as there are no crit bonuses.
Heir of the blinding sun ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Basic attack: 44-565 Crit chance. hits: 4,0-18,4%	Hitting with a charged attack unleashes an Arrow of Blinding Sun on the enemy, dealing 60-120% attack power damage. In addition, a target damaged by an Arrow of the Blinding Sun for 10 sec. the effect of the Burning Heart is applied. Charged Attack Damage while under this effect is increased by 28-56%. An arrow of blinding sun has a chance to spawn 1 every 10 sec.	Weapons from Battle Pass (patch 4.0). Awakenings are important for unlocking the maximum potential of the passive effect. However, this is a strong bow if you are going to fight against a single target, since it gives a high damage bonus for a charged shot. Given that the effect occurs once every 1 seconds, the weapon performs much worse in AoE. When using the Shadow Hunt set, it is recommended to put the crown in artifacts on crit. damage.
Feathers decorated with flowers ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Basic attack: 42 ~ 510 Attack Power: 9%-41%	Reduces stamina consumption while flying by 15%. Charged attack damage when performing aimed shots is increased by 6/7,5/9/10,5/12% every 0,5 sec. This effect can stack up to 6 times and disappears 10 sec after exiting aiming mode.	It will work well if you have high awakenings. It is slightly weaker than the bow from the Battle Pass and will show itself better in hyper-carry variants, where you do not need to switch to other characters often.
Rangefinder ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Basic attack: 44-565 Attack Power: 6,0-27,6%	When an equipped character heals or receives treatment, he will be healed for 30 seconds. is endowed with the Mark of Unity. You can get up to 3 Marks in total. When an elemental skill or elemental explosion is activated, all Marks are consumed for 10 sec. the effect of Resistance is created: for each Mark spent, the attack power increases by 3-7%, and the damage bonus with all elements is by 7-13%. The Repulse effect can occur once every 15 sec. The character receives Marks of Unity even if he is not on the battlefield.	The bow does not have the highest attack power, but it has a powerful passive that buffs both attack and elemental damage bonus. It is important to understand that although the hero has built-in healing, it only works towards the end of his rotation, so a pocket healer is needed in the squad. When playing with Rangefinder, it is recommended to first get healed up to two times, and then use a skill or super to get all the bow boosts.
Prototype: Crescent (F2P) ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Basic attack: 42-510 Attack Power: 9-41,3%	Hitting an enemy's weak spot with a charged attack increases movement speed by 10% and attack power by 36-72% for 10 seconds.	A free bow from Mondstadt that provides a huge amount of attack power. However, in order to get the maximum buff from the passive effect, it is required to hit the weak points of opponents. The nuance is that not every enemy has weak points, which in most cases makes the weapon useless.
Melody of peace (F2P) ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Basic attack: 42-510 Attack Power: 9-41,3%	Damage after being healed is increased by 16-32% for 8 sec. The effect works even when the character is not on the battlefield.	Free bow from Fontaine. Like the craftable Prototype: Crescent, in the main stat it has attack power. But given that the passive is easier to activate, since Lyney himself restores health with a skill and he can have a healer in the team, to some extent it is even more convenient. Under equal conditions, it loses to the Prototype by about 5%.
The Viridescent Hunts ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Basic attack: 42-510 Crit chance. hits: 6-27,6%	A normal or charged attack has a 50% chance to create a cyclone that pulls enemies in and deals 40-80% damage in 0,5 seconds. Wind holds targets for 4 seconds. The effect can activate once every 14-10 seconds.	Weapons from Battle Pass. Despite the crit. the chance in the main stat and the presence of a cyclone (built-in control function) is either at the same level as Melody of Rest or lower. If you have Green Onion R5 or you are severely lacking crit. chance, it will be better than R1-R4 Melody. However, in other situations it is better to put crafted weapons. When equipping the Shadow Hunt set, it is recommended to put the crown in artifacts on a crit. damage.
Hamayumi (F2P) ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Basic attack: 42-510 Attack Power: 12-55,1%	The damage of normal attacks is increased by 16-32%, and that of charged attacks by 12-24%. When the elemental energy gauge is full, the power of the passive effect is increased by 100%.	As a crafting bow, as a rule, it is worse than the Prototype and Melody, since it is desirable for Lyney to use the explosion of the elements as the energy accumulates. However, in the absence of the above options, it is a good alternative, since in any case it increases the attack power and damage of charged attacks.
Slingshot ⭐️⭐️⭐️ Basic attack: 38-354 Crit chance. hits: 6,8-31,2%	If a normal or charged arrow hits the target within 0.3 sec. after a shot, then its damage is increased by 36-60%. Otherwise, the damage is reduced by 10%.	The optimal weapon in the initial stages due to the buff on the crit chance. hit and increase the damage of a charged shot. It can also be successfully used in the middle of the game if there is a Bennett, which compensates for the bow's low base attack. To avoid an overabundance of crit. chance, it's better to put a hat on crit. damage.

Reaction Build Weapon

Vapor and Melting are 1st order reactions, so all the options discussed in the previous table are also relevant for them. In addition, you can additionally consider the following weapons for Lyney:

Name	Description	Recommendation
hunting trail ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Basic attack: 44-542 Crit chance. hits: 9,6-44,1%	Increases elemental damage by 12-24%. Hitting with a charged attack grants you the Relentless Hunt, which increases the damage of your Aimed Shots by 160-320% from the mastery of the elements. The effect lasts 10 seconds. or 12 activations. Can only occur once every 1 seconds.	The bow provides a high increase in crit. chance, elemental damage, and charged attack buff. In this case, the crown in artifacts is recommended for crit. damage to balance stats.
Scarlet feather of the star vulture ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Basic attack: 46-608 Critical Damage: 14.4%-66.2%	Increases attack power by 24%-48% for 12 sec after activating the Dispersion reaction. If the party contains 1/2 or more characters with other elements, the damage of the wearer's charged attacks increases 20%-40%/48%-96%, and the ults are on 10%-20%/24%-48%.	Suitable if there are heroes with other elements in the squad. Can be used not only when playing through reactions, but also in mono-Pyro, if the other two heroes belong to Geo or Anemo supports. Will give a boost to the magician's main buttons.
ibis beak (F2P) ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Basic Attack 44-565 ATK 7-27,6%	On hit with a charged attack, increases Elemental Mastery by 40-80 units for 6 sec. This effect can stack up to 2 times and occurs every 0,5 sec.	Great bow for Steam and Melt by increasing Attack Power and Elemental Mastery to 160. with two stacks on R5. At the same time, it is extremely easy for Lyney to get the maximum number of passive levels, since she plays from charged attacks. The only problem is that the weapon is exclusive and there are more of them. can't get.
Stringless ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Basic Attack 42-510 Elemental Mastery 36-165	Damage of Elemental Skills and Elemental Explosion increased by 24-48%.	A universal variant with the main stat in the form of mastery of the elements and an increase in the damage of the elemental skill and ult (although this is not the main way of dealing damage, skills are used in rotation and therefore are no less important). It is also convenient in that it does not have any conditions for triggering buffs.
King’s Squire (F2P) ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Basic Attack 41-454 ATK 12-55,1%	When using an elemental skill or an elemental explosion, the character gains the effect of Guidance of the Forest, increasing Elemental Mastery by 60-140 units for 12 sec. If the bow user leaves the battlefield, the effect ends. When the effect ends, a random nearby enemy takes damage for 100-180% from attack power. This effect can occur every 20 sec.	Craft bow from Sumeru. Increases attack power, elemental mastery when using el. skill or ult, and also allows you to deal additional damage depending on the attack power. All bonuses are useful and easy to activate. In this case, weapons can be awakened for free.
Ode to Anemone (F2p) ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Basic Attack 42-510 Elemental Mastery 36-165	Using an elemental skill inflicts an anemone's ancient wish that increases attack power by 16-32% within 6 sec.	Provides increased Elemental Mastery and Attack Power. A handy weapon whose passive effect triggers on its own during Leni's rotation. As with the Ibis Beak, the bow is currently can't get.

Best Artifacts

When choosing artifacts on Line, first of all, start from the selected assembly and team. For example, a mono-elemental build does not need sets that increase elemental mastery or reaction damage. In this case, you need to focus on attack power, elemental damage and crits.

The best choice for a classic build - shadow hunting. For reaction play, as with most Pyro heroes, the optimal set is Crimson Witch of Flames.

Let's look at each set in more detail.

Name	Description	Recommendation
Shadow Court Hunter ⭐⭐⭐⭐ ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐	2 parts: Increases normal and charged attack damage by 15%. 4 parts: Increases crit chance. hit by 12% for 5 seconds when current HP increases or decreases. The effect can stack up to 3 times.	Increases the damage of charged attacks, which are the main source of DPS, and additionally buffs crit. the chance is up to 36%, which in combination with the main stat gives a 60% bonus. This makes it much easier to achieve a high crit rate. damage without loss in crit. chance.
Lava walker ⭐⭐⭐⭐ ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐	2 parts: Increases Pyro resistance by 40%. 4 parts: Increases damage against enemies affected by Pyro by 35%.	Can be considered as an alternative to the previous set for the first time or if you have more suitable stats. It pairs well with the Final Ovation passive and C4. However, it is useless against opponents that have Pyro resistance or are themselves made of fire.
Gladiator’s FinaleShimenawa's Reminiscence	2 parts: Increases attack power by 18%. 2 parts: Increases attack power by 18%.	The optimal combination that increases attack power by 36%. Allows you to focus on critical damage and crit chance. hits in the characteristics of artifacts or weapons.
Gladiator’s FinaleCrimson Witch of Flames	2 parts: Increases attack power by 18%. 2 parts: Increases Pyro damage by 15%.	Another variant of 2+2, but with an emphasis on elemental damage. If the stats are better or the attack power is already in sufficient quantity, it is advisable to equip 2 parts from the set for attack power and 2 parts for fire damage.
Itinerant ensemble ⭐⭐⭐⭐ ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐	2 parts: Increases Elemental Mastery by 80. 4 parts: Increases the damage of a charged attack by 35% if the character uses a catalyst or ranged weapons.	The set is suitable for both classic assembly and gameplay through reactions. The full set bonus is useful in both cases, and the 2-piece elemental mastery buff comes in handy for Steam, Melt, Burn, and other reactions.
Crimson Witch of Flames ⭐⭐⭐⭐ ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐	2 parts: Increases Pyro damage by 15%. 4 parts: Increases the damage of the Overload, Burn, and Bloom reactions by 40%, and the damage of the Steam and Melt reactions by 15%. Using an elemental skill increases the effect of a 2-piece set by 50% for 10 seconds. Can stack up to 3 times.	The full set of the Crimson Witch of Flames is relevant only for Lyney as a reactor. This is the most versatile option if you want to deal more reaction damage. But it is worth noting that even with such an assembly, Shadowhunting is practically not inferior in terms of efficiency.
Martial Artist ⭐⭐⭐ ⭐⭐⭐⭐	2 parts: Increases normal and charged attack damage by 15%. 4 parts: Increases normal and charged attack damage by 25% for 8 seconds. after using an elemental skill.	A set for beginners, which is fully consistent with the gameplay of the magician from Fontaine. Increases the damage of a charged attack by up to 40%, which is quite a lot. At the beginning of the game, this will significantly strengthen the character and allow you to close any content with him.

In addition, there are kits that have useful buffs for the character, but require certain conditions to be met.

Name	Description	Recommendation
Retracing Bolide ⭐⭐⭐⭐ ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐	2 parts: Increases shield strength by 35%. 4 parts: While protected by a shield, increases normal and charged attack damage by 40%.	The 4-piece effect is quite strong, as it gives a 40% buff to the damage of charged attacks. Situation lies in the need to constantly be under the shield, which is not always possible (although desirable). However, if the team has a hero with a strong and stable shield, the set will be a good alternative to any previously considered set.
Vermillion Hereafter ⭐⭐⭐⭐ ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐	2 parts: Increases attack power by 18%. 4 parts: Elemental explosion increases attack power by 8% when activated. When a character loses HP, attack power is increased by another 10%. The effect occurs a maximum of 4 times no more than 0,8 seconds. The buff disappears when the character leaves the battlefield.	Provides a high increase in attack power due to the mechanics of the prop arrow, which consumes Lyney's HP. However, it only works on him if the elemental explosion is activated every rotation. With this set, the illusionist is recommended to always enter the fight with the use of an ult.
Shimenawa's Reminiscence ⭐⭐⭐⭐ ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐	2 parts: Increases attack power by 18%. 4 parts: When using an elemental skill, if the character has 15 or more energy, they lose 15 energy, and the damage of normal attack, charged attack and falling attack is increased by 50% for 10 seconds. The effect cannot be reactivated during this time.	Increases attack power and gives a huge boost to charged shots. For the passive to work, the battle will need to start with email. skill, due to which Lyney will not receive additional levels of props. However, the situation will stabilize a little in subsequent rotations. In addition, the character will not be able to ult on a permanent basis. For these reasons, Shimenawa performs worse than previous kits. This is still a working option, albeit with nuances.

Squads for Lyney

Lyney, on the one hand, is a narrowly focused character due to the passive, which provides a significant increase in DPS if the illusionist plays only with Piro. However, on the other hand, you can abandon the passive talent and focus on playing through reactions.

It should be borne in mind that in the latter case, the character is not revealed to the maximum. In addition, among Pyro dd there are many alternatives that look no worse or even better in the classic assembly.

Best characters

All possible allies for Lyney are divided into roles. The magician himself takes the position of the main dd.

Sub-dd

A partial support that helps by dealing additional damage outside of the battlefield. The table shows secondary dd for mono pyro team:

Character	Element	Weapon	Effects
Xiangling	Pyro	A spear	Excellent sub-dd in the roast squad. Despite the long cooldown of the ult (20 sec.), it has high personal damage from the pocket, and it is extremely useful due to the Sharpness !!! passive, as well as the C1 and C6 constellations.
Dehya	Pyro	Two-handed sword	Provides the interrupt resistance that Liny needs and deals Pyro damage outside of the field, which means it takes into account the fire buff from the illusionist's passive skill. To bring even more value to the team, can be equipped Millelite resistance.
Pyro GG	Pyro	One handed sword	Since Lini plays best with Pyro characters, the main character will fit perfectly with him to perform the functions of a sub-DD and a support character.
Klee (S2)	Pyro	Catalyst	It is recommended to put in a squad with Lyney only if you have C2, which lowers the defense of enemies. Her rotation is that she activates an elemental skill and changes to another character.
Yoimiya	Pyro	Bow	Although it is primarily the main damage dealer, the explosion of the elements allows you to partially perform the functions of a sub-DD. After activating the ult, the active character, using attacks (including charged ones), inflicts Pyro area damage on enemies with Golden Radiance (mark). In addition, the Summer Dawn passive increases the attack power of allies by 10%.
Kazuha	Anemo	One handed sword	The best Anemo hero for Lyney. He can not only use emerald shadow, but also deal fairly high damage, increase elemental damage, and consistently keep opponents under control.
Venti	Anemo	Bow	It can also pull small enemies with an elemental explosion and deal minor damage. Inferior to Kazuha due to the lack of buffs, except for restoring energy to the team, which is not so important, especially in roasting.
Sucrose	Anemo	Catalyst	Budget alternative to Kazuha. Her Elemental Mastery buffs do not work in Roast, but she can control and dispel enemies.
Anemo GG	Anemo	One handed sword	The ties are not as permanent, however his/her C6 is useful in that it lowers the resistance to the elements that are absorbed by the ult's wind whirlwind.
Lynette	Anemo	One handed sword	Not the best candidate, but, like all Anemo characters, is able to wear emerald shadow, which will somehow benefit the mono-elemental team. Besides, it's free.

Sub-dd for the team playing through reaction:

Character	Element	Weapon	Effects
Chevreuse	Pyro	A spear	Despite belonging to Pyro, the heroine will not fit into a mono-elemental squad and plays exclusively in Overload groups. The talent reduces the resistance of opponents to the Electro and Pyro elements, and the skill heals an ally on the field.
Nahida	Dendro	Catalyst	Grants a lot of Dendro Status and increases Elemental Mastery with Elemental Burst. A great ally to play through Burn or Bloom.
Dendro Traveler	Dendro	One handed sword	F2P alternative to Nahide. It performs the same functions, but distributes less status. The advantage of the Traveler is that all constellations are unlocked for free.
Mona	Hydro	Catalyst	Additionally distracts enemies email. skill and increases all damage due to Omen, which occurs after the explosion of the bubble from the ultimate.
Ayato	Hydro	One handed sword	An elemental explosion creates a large area in which enemies receive periodic Hydro damage.
Sucrose	Anemo	Catalyst	Although Kazuha is also good at getting into squads through reactions, Sucrose will do more good with the built-in elemental mastery boost with two passives.
Yae Miko	electro	Catalyst	With an elemental skill, places totems in a certain area that deal damage over time and help induce Overload. Ulta instantly explodes all pillars.
Beidou	electro	Two-handed sword	Elemental Burst summons electrical circuits that deal damage in concert with the active character if they use Normal or Charged Attacks.
Fischl	electro	Bow	Comfortable Electro sub-dd. Helps create Overload and deals pretty good damage with elemental skills and ults that have a fast cooldown.
Rosary	Cryo	A spear	Increases crit. Chance of the Sustaining Darkness passive after using an Elemental Burst. Deals Cryo damage with skill and outside of the battlefield with ult.
Ganyu	Cryo	Bow	Relies on an elemental explosion that attacks with icicles in an area, dealing damage and inflicting Cryo status.

Sapports

Full support focused on buffing Lyney, as well as protecting and healing him when needed. Supports for mono pyro team:

Character	Element	Weapon	Effects
Bennett	Pyro	One handed sword	Bennett is the best support for Lyney. Not only does it heal effectively, but it also provides a huge buff to attack power.
Mavuika	Pyro	Two-handed sword	While Mavuika is better as a main DD, she can be used as a sub DD for Lini's roasting squads due to her active character buff.
Thoma	Pyro	A spear	Places a strong Pyro shield with skill and elemental explosion. The only problem is that the shield generation and area fire damage from her ult only happens when using normal attacks, which Liny rarely uses in the rotation.
Yanfei (S4)	Pyro	Catalyst	In the presence of the 4th constellation, it can impose a shield that absorbs a decent amount of incoming damage. This is a pretty good option if not available. Zhongli.
Xinyan	Pyro	Two-handed sword	It is both a damage dealer and a defender at the same time. But it should be borne in mind that its armor is inferior in strength to those discussed above.
Jean	Anemo	One handed sword	Instantly heals the entire squad with an explosion of elements, and then periodically heals, dispels and deals Anemo damage.
Sayu	Anemo	Two-handed sword	Budget analogue of Djinn, also heals with an ult and scatters over the area.
Lan Yan	Anemo	Catalyst	Grants a strong shield of Anemo or other elements, but Lini will not be able to refresh its duration. Can group enemies to deal damage with a zip tie.
Zhongli	Geo	A spear	The most optimal choice among shieldmen. Can be used as Tenacity of the MillelithAnd Archaic Petra. Both sets are equally beneficial for Lyney.
Shilonen	Geo	One handed sword	Suitable for mono-Pyro squads, it will simultaneously cover the need for a healer and a buffer.

Supports for a team focusing on reaction:

Character	Element	Weapon	Effects
Kokomi	Hydro	Catalyst	An excellent healer that restores health and skill, and ult. It also deals damage on its own and triggers reactions.

Kirara	Dendro	One handed sword	As with Layla, she can play in the roast team if she doesn't use an elemental burst. Otherwise, this is a comfortable epic shield for Dendro or other builds.

Dory	electro	Two-handed sword	An elemental explosion creates a bond with the active team member, allowing her to heal, regenerate energy, and attack enemies.

Top Teams

Teams of Line are also considered in two variations: frying assemblies and through reactions.

Team Mono Pyro

Squads consisting mainly of Pyro and Anemo characters.

Character 1	Character 2	Character 3	Character 4	Features
Lyney	XianglingMavuika Kli(S2)	Kazuha ShilonenSucrose	Bennett	A strong roasting squad with Lini as the main DD. As a sub-DD you can put Xiangling, Mavuika or Klee (C2) so that they deal additional damage and increase the damage from the magician's passive. Kazuha buffs electrical damage, pulls enemies and dispels. Bennett heals and gives a bonus to the attack power of the elemental explosion. If you don't have Kazuhi, you can use Sucrose for tightening and dispersing or Shilonen.
Lyney	Bennett	Kazuha Mavuika	Zhongli Shilonen	Another build option, but without an additional source of damage. Instead, Zhongli is placed, which applies a strong shield, providing protection from attack interruption, and also reduces the resistance of enemies in the area of ​​​​the skill. If you don't have Zhongli, but you have Mavuika, you can use Shilonen.
Lyney	Yanfei (С4)XinyanThoma	Bennett	JeanSayu	Fully protected squad with a shield and a lot of healing. Suitable for passing difficult content if Lyney sags too quickly on HP. In place of the Pyro-shielders, any other ones will also work, however, the buff from the passive will become less.
Lyney	Xiangling Dehya	Klee (C2)Yoimiya	JeanSayu Lan Yan	A team where all 3 Pyro-heroes are able to deal damage on their own or from their pocket. Please note that when choosing Yoimiya, you will need to use the explosion of the elements and switch to Lyney, since it is he who is the main damage. That is, her time on the battlefield is limited.
Lyney	Xiangling Mavuika	KazuhaVentiSucrose	Dehya	Alternative without healers or shielders. This unit relies on increased interrupt resistance and damage absorption from Dehya, as well as a tie from Kazuha, Venti or Sucrose, which will ensure the unit's survivability.
Lyney	Xiangling	Anemo ggLynetteEmber	Noelle	Completely free assembly. In the third position, you can put Anemo Traveler / Lynette for dispelling, or Ember for an additional boost from Liney's passive talent. Noelle fulfills the role of protector and healer.

Commands via reactions

Commands for Line, including heroes with elements that interact with Pyro: Hydro, Cryo, Dendro, Electro.

Character 1	Character 2	Character 3	Character 4	Features
Lyney	MonaAyato	Sucrose	Bennett	Detachment via Par. Mona or Ayato uses an elemental explosion to inflict a Hydro status, which Lyney uses to summon Para. Sucrose increases elemental mastery and provides control to a group of enemies. Bennett heals and buffs attack power.
Lyney	Yae MikoFischlBeidou	KazuhaVentiSucrose	Bennett	Squad through Overload. For Electro damage from the pocket, use Yae Miko, Beidou or Fischl, you can also put Raiden. Kazuha, Venti, or Sucrose pull opponents together, making positioning easier. Bennett heals and buffs, increases illusionist damage by 20% (Lyney's passive).
Lyney	NahidaDendro gg	XianglingDehyaThoma	KokomiBarbara	Team through Blossom. In this case, it is not always Lyney that causes a reaction, so it is not necessary to put a strong emphasis on mastery of the elements. Dendro status is applied first, then Kokomi/Barbara wets the enemies, creating buds, after which Lyney uses the supports' pocket skills to create a Blossom.
Lyney	RosaryGanyu	XianglingDehyaThoma	DioneLaila	Team through the Melt. Rosaria or Ganyu act as secondary damage dealers for Cryo damage outside of the battlefield. In both cases, it is important that the heroines ult on cooldown, so it is desirable for them to collect as much energy recovery as possible. The remaining positions are played by Pyro sup-dd and Cryo support (or vice versa).
Lyney	MonaAyato	Bennett	Zhongli	Alternative assembly through Steam, where Zhongli or another available one is used instead of the Anemo character. scutellum. If there are problems with survivability, for example, when passing Abyss, this unit will show itself much better.
Lyney	NahidaDendro gg	KazuhaVentiSucrose	Kirara Bai ZhuYao Yao	Squad through Burning, where Lyney casts a Pyro, which the Dendro character then puts a Dendro status on to trigger a reaction. Please note that in order to maintain Burning, you will need to periodically apply Dendro again. Anemo heroes are designed to scatter Pyro around the area.
Lyney	Charlotte	FurinaKokomi	Zhongli	An alternative squad that plays from the Melting reaction. Charlotte puts periodic Cryo damage status on enemies. Furina or Kokomi are needed for stable Hydro application and Freezing. Geo Archon cuts resists and creates shields that provide immunity to interruptions. It is recommended to place the column away from the battle so as not to break the ice.

How to play as Lyney

Lyney is the main damage dealer, so he is on the battlefield most of the time, using the skills of other characters to strengthen himself, protect or heal. Its gameplay consists of using charged attacks (props arrows) and exploding elements to accumulate stacks called levels. excess props, which are subsequently removed when an elemental skill is activated.

As for the ability sequencing, the stacking mechanic encourages you to use the skill at the very end, as this greatly increases the damage of the skill. The Elemental Explosion that transforms Lyney into a cat is recommended before E-shki, as it grants an additional level of Surplus Props and summons a Laughing Cathat (two at C1).

Rotation

An example of constructing the optimal Lyney rotation looks like this:

1. On support characters, activate skills that deal damage outside of the battlefield and provide the necessary buffs, shields or healing.
2. Switch to illusionist and use charged attack level 2to fire a prop arrow and summon Laughing Cathat. While the Hat distracts the attention of enemies, make 2-3 more aimed shots.
3. The applications element explosionto transform into Laughing Hatcat. Approach one or more enemies and deal fire damage to them.
4. Once the enemies take damage, cancel the elemental explosion with an activation elemental skillto deal area damage to the Pyro, summon another Hat, and gain an additional level of Surplus Props. This will also allow you to remove all accumulated stacks, restore health and deal increased AoE damage.

If at the 3rd step it was not possible to accumulate energy for the ult, after making 4-5 charged attacks, immediately use the skill.

Сonclusion

Lyney is a Pyro damage dealer who primarily uses charged attacks to deal damage. Its main feature is passiveFinal standing ovation”, which increases damage against enemies under the influence of Pyro and gives a buff depending on the number of fire characters in the squad. This suggests single element gameplay, which is quite unique, since usually all Pyro damage dealers are focused solely on interacting with other elements. Lyney, on the contrary, prefers to play no reactions.

The specifics of the passive skill, although it makes the character more narrowly focused, does not at all limit his build exclusively on roasting. He may well play through Steam, Melt, Burn and other reactions. However, there are quite a few other alternatives to compiling such builds, while the Illusionist offers a completely different style of play.
