Linnea main stats and substats

Sands
DEF% = Energy RechargeIf you want to burst every rotation, an Energy Recharge Sands can be used. This has niche value for teams that need Constant healing (e.g., Furina teams, Radiant enemies, or Zibai teams utilizing Harbinger of Dawn).
Goblet
DEF%
Circlet
CRIT Rate / CRIT DMG = DEF%

Substat priority

  1. 1DEF%Best
  2. 2CRIT Rate = CRIT DMG
  3. 3EM

Once 2000 DEF has been hit, it becomes around equal to CRIT. Energy Recharge is generally a non-issue if bursting every other rotation, but is worth considering if consistent healing is required as detailed in the main stats section.

Energy Recharge targets

How much Energy Recharge Linnea needs to cast the Burst every rotation, by team and by weapon. Where a target is out of reach, the advice beside it says what to do instead.

    Then

All of Linnea's Sub-DPS damage is tied to her Skill. Her Burst can be levelled for additional Healing in teams that need it or for comfort.

Linnea rotation

In most situations, Linnea’s gameplay is as simple as tapping her Skill then immediately swapping out. Her Burst is only really used for its healing. It can be used as an emergency button, or simply substitute her Skill in rotations when available at the cost of taking a bit more field time.

Note that it is possible for Linnea to swap out after finishing the taps on her Skill but before the damage is applied. This causes Linnea to take slightly less field time when using the nuke at the cost of losing out on some buffs like Illuga’s Burst or her own second Ascension passive.

  1. Instantly triggering a boss phase, so the primary on-field DPS has to waste less time with it
  2. Quickly piling on damage onto a boss with a limited DPS window
  3. Clearing out a wave of enemies so the team’s on-field DPS can focus their damage onto the next one
  4. Finishing off a battle quicker, or squeezing in some extra damage before a stage ends
  5. Dopamine

Linnea FAQ

3 questions

What stat does Linnea scale on?

Linnea's abilities multiply DEF. That is read from the scaling rows on the Elemental Skill and Burst, not from the ability description, so it reflects what the game actually multiplies rather than what the text mentions.

What is the best weapon for Linnea?

Golden Frostbound Oath is the closest fit on the data: it is a 5-star bow with CRIT DMG as its ascension stat, and its passive acts on DEF. Blackcliff Warbow is the best 4-star alternative.

Which artifact set should Linnea use?

Archaic Petra. Its 2-piece bonus is: Gain a 15% Geo DMG Bonus. Its 4-piece bonus is: Upon obtaining an Elemental Shard created through Crystallize or triggering a Lunar-Crystallize reaction, all party members gain a 35% DMG Bonus for that particular element for 10s. Only one form of Elemental DMG Bonus can be gained in this manner at any one time.
