This Jean build will focus on her role as a powerful support. The goal will be to boost her Burst for powerful group-wide healing, while also pushing her skill to be able to swap to her to blast groups of enemies away.

Jean needs quite a lot of Energy Recharge. If you plan of playing her as the only Anemo character then aim for 160-200%. If you use Favonius Sword or another Anemo character, you can aim lower around 140% Energy Recharge.

Jean will mostly be off-field, and switched in when you need to use her Burst, Skill, or Charged attack.

Her normal charged attack can launch enemies in the air, which can be useful to get a bit of crowd control when needed. If you fight larger monsters, you will need two consecutive charged attacks for them to launch.

Jean's Elemental skill on the other hand will launch enemies far away. Her Gale Blade can be useful if you need to get away from some enemies. Holding it will pull everyone in before you can throw them in a specific direction. This can be helpful when you are near water for example, as throwing enemies into the water will instantly kill them. However, be careful to not use her skill before swapping to another character that needs to be close-ranged with enemies.

Jean's most important skill for this build is her Burst, Dandelion Breeze. This burst will create an Anemo field, launching enemies, dealing Anemo damage, and healing all party members. Any enemies that enters the field will also receive damage, so you want to stay inside of it. Do not use Jean's Skill when the field is up, to not risk pushing enemies out of it.

For the Sunfire specific build, you will want to use Bennett's Burst first, and then put Jean's burst right on top of it, before switching to your DPS.

Jean usually fits into various teams as a support healer. She particularly works great with Furina as Jean can easily maintain Furina's Fanfare stacks. Bennett will be another core teammate for Jean for the Sunfire teams, as they can swirl a ton of Pyro.

As mentioned before, Jean has the ability to keep Furina's Fanfare stacks up, making them good teammates. The two other slots can be filled with a powerful main DPS such as Neuvillette or Raiden Shogun for example, and a Sub-DPS. As long as they can benefit from Jean's healing and Furina's Hydro application, it will be a good choice.

Sunfire is the name for the specific interaction between Jean and Bennett's Elemental Burst abilities, with Bennett using his burst first, followed by Jean applying her burst. This unique reaction takes place because Bennett's burst applies a Pyro aura to the battlefield which is continually applied to your active character. When Jean's Elemental Burst is added to Bennett's, she can Swirl that Pyro aura off of your character, triggering an explosive reaction.

This can be combined further with characters such as Kamisato Ayaka's Elemental Burst for example, which adds a large scale AoE to the battlefield and Cryo.

This combination consists in providing the best supports for your main DPS character. As a Healer, Jean can really fit into a lot of various compositions. She especially shines in Anemo focused teams, as she can serve as battery on top of the healing, while also providing with a lot of Anemo RES Shred.
