The Best Jean builds in Genshin Impact

Genshin Impact's Jean Gunnhildr, the hard-working and lovely Acting Grand Master of the Knights of Favonius in Mondstadt, is both a formidable warrior and healer. Also known as the Dandelion Knight and the Lionfang Knight, these two titles perfectly describe the constant struggle Genshin Impact's protector of the City of Freedom has to deal with. Fight ruthlessly for what she believes, and care tenderly for those in her charge.

Jean's two sides are best represented in Genshin Impact with two different builds, depending on how players wish to fit her into their party.
