Lynx’s best build and equipment setup recommendations
Quantum Healer/Support Build: When it comes to building Lynx, put all your energy into increasing her healing and SPD stat. Since her healing power scales with HP, prioritize increasing her HP % to make her become one of the best healing characters.
And remember the importance of the Speed stat. It’s important to ensure she can provide quick healing support whenever your team needs it most. Make Lynx the perfect guardian angel for your squad in combat!
Don’t forget about Effect Resistance in Lynx’s sub-stats! It will help her remove buffs and make the most of Broken Keel’s passive. If you find yourself facing enemies that excel at dealing AoE damage and inflicting debuffs, consider opting for the Energy Regen artifact. Otherwise, an HP% artifact will do the trick.
Here are Lynx’s stats prioritization guide and the recommended kit we suggest:

The best Lynx Relics
1. Messenger Traversing Hackerspace (4 pieces)
Messenger Traversing Hackerspace is is currently Lynx’s optimal relic set. Not only does it boost her SPD by 6%, but every time she uses her Ultimate, she’s giving the whole team a Speed boost of 12% too. However, the effect is unstackable, which is unfortunate.
2. Longevous Disciple (2 pieces) + Passerby of Wandering Cloud (2 pieces)
Another option is Longevous Disciple (2 pieces) and Passerby of Wandering Cloud (2 pieces). If you want to supercharge Lynx’s healing then increase her max HP since it’s tied directly to how much she can heal, in this case it is increased by 12%. Throw in some extra Healing Outgoing stats of 10%, and you’ll have her patching up your team in no time!
3. Messenger Traversing Hackerspace (2 pieces) + Passerby of Wandering Cloud (2 pieces)
Mixing Messenger Traversing Hackerspace with Passerby of Wandering Cloud you’ll get a nice bump of 6% SPD and a boost of 10% to Outgoing Healing, making her heals better.
The best Lynx Plannar Ornament sets
1. Fleet of the Ageless
Fleet of the Ageless is the go-to ornament for Lynx. It beefs up her HP by 12% and cranks up ATK by 8% for the whole squad upon her Ultimate. Just make sure Lynx stays on 120 SPD!
2. Broken Keel
A good alternative is Broken Keel, which grants 10% CRIT DMG to her and other party members. Activation of the Ornament’s effect through her Skill is straightforward. However, you need 30% Effect RES to trigger the Crit DMG buff, with 10% already granted by the Ornament’s base stats.

Lynx Mono-Quantum Team Comps
- Healer: Lynx
- DPS: Seele
- Tank: Fu Xuan
