Lynx will require a proper Relic set to provide sufficient healing during combat. Her best option is the four-piece Passerby of Wandering Cloud, which increases Outgoing Healing by 10%. It further generates one Skill Point at the beginning of the battle, which will aid the entire team.

However, for some extra healing, you can also use the two-piece Longevous Disciple paired with Passerby of Wandering Cloud. The former will increase HP, improving her entire kit that scales to her maximum health.

Regarding Planar Ornament, use Fleet of the Ageless, as it provides 12% HP. It further increases all allies' ATK by 8% when her SPD is set to 120 or higher.

Make sure to prioritize HP on her Relic pieces to improve her scaling and equip an energy Regeneration rope on her ornament to quickly recharge her Ultimate.

Time Waits for No One is arguably Lynx’s best Light Cone in Honkai Star Rail as it increases her HP by 18% and Outgoing Healing by 12%. It further records the amount of healing to unleash 36% of it as damage on any of the targeted enemies after an ally launches an attack. Note that the additional damage is not affected by any buff.

For the 4-star option, you can either choose between Post-Op Conversation or Shared Feeling. Both the Light Cone provide Outgoing Healing and Energy Regeneration.

You need to prioritize all her traces, excluding her Basic ATK to send her healing potential into overdrive. The following list outlines all of Lynx's abilities that serve as her primary source of support:

• Skill: Heals an ally and increases their Max HP. If the character belongs to the Path of Destruction or Preservation, it further boosts their chances of being attacked by an enemy.
• Ultimate: Dispels a debuff from all allies and restores their health based on Lynx’s max HP.
• Talent: Her Skill and Ultimate applies continuous healing to an ally, further regenerating their HP at the beginning of each turn. The effect provides extra healing, which scales with her max health.

This concludes everything you need to push Lynx’s potential as a 4-star healer in Honkai Star Rail.
