Viridescent Venerer is Jean's best artifact set as a Support, allowing her to shred elemental resistance with it. Alongside this, the focus on both healing and energy recharge allows her to maintain consistent burst uptime with buffers like Furina.

Since Jean's healing scales off of her ATK stat, players can still get the best of both worlds even if they opt into a more damage-focused build.

If Jean is being used in a team without Elemental Reactions (such as a double Anemo double Geo team with Xiao), you can opt to use the Noblesse Oblige set to buff the party after using Jean's Elemental Burst.

Jean's Talent Priority

1st 2nd 3rd
Elemental Burst Elemental Skill Normal Attack

Increasing Jean's Elemental Burst is a high priority, along with her Elemental Skill to increase her supportive capabilities and damage. You do not need to level up her Normal Attack at all.

Jean Best Team Comp

Jean - Furina Team Comp

Support Main DPS Sub-DPS Support
Genshin - Jean Jean Genshin - Raiden Raiden Genshin - Yelan Yelan Genshin - Furina Furina
Genshin - Jean Jean Genshin - Neuvillette Neuvillette Genshin - Yae Miko Yae Miko Genshin - Furina Furina

Jean and Furina synergize well together. Jean can immediately stack Fanfare with her burst while debuffing enemies with resistance shred.

With these two serving as the team's core members, there is room for some flexibility in the Main DPS and Sub-DPS roles, as long as they can benefit from Furina's Hydro application.

Sunfire Team Comp

Support Main DPS Sub-DPS Support
Genshin - Jean Jean Genshin - Arlecchino Arlecchino Genshin - Emilie Emilie Genshin - Bennett Bennett
Genshin - Jean Jean Genshin - Tartaglia Tartaglia Genshin - Xiangling Xiangling Genshin - Bennett Bennett
Genshin - Jean Jean Genshin - Raiden Raiden Genshin - Xingqiu Xingqiu Genshin - Bennett Bennett

Jean and Bennett's Elemental Bursts combined can cause a lot of Pyro Swirls around enemies. Jean's Burst will apply the Anemo element to the character while Bennett's will apply Pyro, which makes you automatically Swirl Pyro in the process.

Make sure that Jean has significant investment in Elemental Mastery to further maximize Swirl Damage. You can use Main DPS characters like Raiden or Tartaglia to trigger multiple bouts of Overcharged or Vaporize reactions respectively.

Anemo Geo / Mono Anemo Team Comp

Support Main DPS Sub-DPS Support
Genshin - Jean Jean Genshin - Xiao Xiao Genshin - Albedo Albedo Genshin - Zhongli Zhongli
Support Main DPS Support Support
Genshin - Jean Jean Genshin - Xiao Xiao Genshin - Faruzan Faruzan Genshin - Zhongli Zhongli

This team comp synergizes well with keeping Xiao safe as he deals damage with his Elemental Burst. Jean will provide particle generation for Jean's Elemental burst and can also increase his DPS if she has her 4th Constellation unlocked.

Since this is a team that doesn't use Elemental Reactions, we recommend that you equip Jean with the Noblesse Oblige 4 piece set to provide Xiao with more ATK.
