Tingyun Relic Guide - Best Sets, Stats & Speed Tuning
Optimal relic sets, planar ornaments, stat priorities, and speed tuning for Tingyun in patch 4.3 - for hypercarry battery and sustainless team roles.

RoleBattery / Buffer
Core Goal
Tingyun (especially E6 with DDD LC) needs a fast, SP-positive, energy-generating build to battery hypercarries or sustainless teams - e.g. with Bronya, Phainon, Saber, or Archer in MoC. The goal: maximize ult uptime and team buffs without wasting resources on outdated sets now that 4.3 relic options like Sacerdos' Relived Ordeal are available.

Lock In Your Light Cone First
Best
Dance Dance Dance (DDD) S5
Grants extra turns and energy cycling - the top pick for 4.3 teams. Enables consistent team advance procs and carry fueling. Farm or claim this before grinding relics.
F2P Alternative
Past and Future
Available from MoC shop. Solid budget option that still contributes to the team's output cycle.
Priority: Light Cone has the most impact on energy and SP economy. Secure it before spending relic stamina.

Choose Your Relic Set
Best - 4pc
Sacerdos' Relived Ordeal
Buffs a single target ally via Skill and Ult. Community calls it "Hackerspace 2.0" for supports. Best for hypercarry-focused teams (Saber, Phainon).
Alt - 4pc
Messenger Traversing Hackerspace
SPD plus team SPD buff on Ult. Easier domain to farm. Better for broader team usage where single-target focus is less important.
Budget
2pc + 2pc Mix (SPD + ATK or HP)
Mix any two 2pc sets with strong substat rolls. Community consensus: "good stats beat mediocre set." If your Sacerdos pieces have weak subs, run a rainbow mix instead.
Decision: Sacerdos wins for single-carry focus. Messenger for general teams. If farming Sacerdos is painful, a 2+2 SPD/HP mix with good subs beats a mediocre full set.

Planar Ornaments
Primary
Lushaka
Team utility and energy-oriented. Most discussed pick in 4.3 threads for Tingyun's support role.
Conditional
Broken Keel
Provides CRIT DMG team buff - but only if you can hit the Effect RES threshold. Check your subs before committing.
Goal: prioritize team utility over Tingyun's personal damage. Penacony and Kalpagni are valid in older builds but less optimal in 4.3.

Main Stats Priority
| Slot | Main Stat | Reason |
|---|---|---|
| Body | HP% or DEF% | She's fragile - survivability first |
| Feet | SPD | Target 160+ for DDD procs and good rotation |
| Sphere | HP% or ATK% | Team utility scaling, not personal DPS |
| Rope | ERR | Energy Regeneration - faster ults = more team buffs |

Low priority
Avoid heavy Crit investment. Tingyun is not a DPS. Crit subs waste rolls that should go into SPD or survivability.
6
Level Up & Speed Tuning
- Hit the 160+ SPD breakpoint first using SPD boots and substat rolls before investing further.
- Tune to your team: often run -1 SPD relative to your carry, or go hyper-speed for 0-cycle tech.
- Trace priority: Skill / Ult first, then Talent - these drive energy generation and buff output.
- Max relevant traces before sinking resources into full level investment.
Key Decision Points
New 4.3 sets vs. rainbow / old sets?
If you already have good Sacerdos pieces or easy domain access, go new for the buff amplification. Otherwise a rainbow mix with strong SPD and HP subs is perfectly fine - many players confirm this.
Hypercarry battery vs. general support role?
Sacerdos + Lushaka for targeted hypercarry (Saber, Phainon). Messenger + Broken Keel for broader team flexing.
Survival vs. Speed - which do I prioritize?
If she's dying in content, swap to HP% or DEF% body/sphere mains even if it slightly drops her SPD. Energy Rope plus DDD compensates for the rotation loss.
Common Mistakes to Avoid
- Over-investing in Crit or DMG relics - she is not a DPS character.
- Ignoring SPD tuning - this causes bad rotations, missed DDD procs, and broken team cycles.
- Running her without enough team sustain or positioning - she draws aggro and dies easily.
- Farming inefficient domains instead of using the strongbox or leftover pieces for a 2+2 SPD/HP mix with good subs.
