Lynette
Lynette is an easy-to-get 4-star Anemo support (handed out free via her event) who does the basic Viridescent Venerer job well: grouping enemies and shredding elemental RES for your carry. She isn't on Kazuha's or Sucrose's level as a buffer, but if you don't have either, she fills the slot nicely and costs almost nothing. Building her is simple: enough Energy Recharge to Burst on rotation, then CRIT, with a 4pc Viridescent Venerer. For a weapon, the 4-star Favonius Sword is her best. She's not a heavy-investment unit, but she's a reliable gap-filler for many elemental teams.

Lynette's talents
Rapid Ritesword
Performs up to 4 rapid strikes.
Charged Attack
Consumes a certain amount of Stamina to unleash 2 rapid sword strikes.
Plunging Attack
Plunges from mid-air to strike the ground below, damaging opponents along the path and dealing AoE DMG upon impact.
Enigmatic Feint
When the Enigma Thrust hits an opponent, it will restore Lynette's HP based on her Max HP, and in the 4s afterward, she will lose a certain amount of HP per second.
Based on whether you press or hold this ability, she will use Enigma Thrust differently.
Press
She swiftly uses an Enigma Thrust.
Hold
Lynette will enter a high-speed Pilfering Shadow state and apply Shadowsign to a nearby opponent. You can control her movement direction during this state, and you can end it prematurely by using this skill again.
When this high-speed state ends, Lynette will unleash her Enigma Thrust. If there is an opponent with Shadowsign applied to them nearby, Lynette will approach them in a flash before using Enigma Thrust.
A maximum of 1 opponent can have Shadowsign at any one time. When this opponent gets too far from Lynette, the Shadowsign will be canceled.
Arkhe: Ousia
At specific intervals, Lynette will unleash a Surging Blade when she uses Enigma Thrust, dealing Ousia-aligned Anemo DMG.
"Now then, turn your eyes to the stage and continue to enjoy the performance. When I next appear, I'll be where you least expect."
Magic Trick: Astonishing Shift
Bogglecat Box
·Taunts nearby opponents, attracting their attacks.
·Deals Anemo DMG to nearby opponents at intervals.
·When the Bogglecat Box comes into contact with Hydro/Pyro/Cryo/Electro, it will gain the corresponding element and additionally fire Vivid Shots that will deal DMG from that element at intervals.
Elemental Absorption of this kind will only occur once during this ability's duration.
"Look this way, and look closely. This is a time for miracles, just for us."
Sophisticated Synergy
Props Positively Prepped
Loci-Based Mnemonics
Combat Rotation
- Before the fight, make sure Lynette has accumulated the full 70 energy needed for her burst, Magic Trick: Astonishing Shift.
- Hold Enigmatic Feint (E) to enter the high-speed Pilfering Shadow state and mark a nearby foe with Shadowsign, then release to have her dash in and land an Anemo Enigma Thrust.
- As soon as she has 70 energy, use her burst (Q) to summon the Bogglecat Box, which taunts enemies and deals periodic Anemo damage on its own.
- Within that window, swap to a Hydro/Pyro/Cryo/Electro character so the box performs its one-time Elemental Absorption, letting it fire extra elemental shots.
- Once the box has absorbed an element, Lynette's next burst deals 15% more damage thanks to Props Positively Prepped.
- For 10 seconds after the burst goes off, the whole party gets an ATK buff of 8/12/16/20% depending on how many elemental types are on field (Sophisticated Synergy) — swap in your main DPS right away to capitalize.
- Weave in normal attacks and E in between to regenerate energy while the box tanks hits and the ATK buff is still active, waiting out the burst's 18-second cooldown.
- If running Lynette as a sub-DPS rather than support, chain her 4-hit normal attack combo with E to make use of her Ousia Arkhe Surging Blade procs while cycling back to the burst.
Lynette constellations
When Enigmatic Feint's Enigma Thrust hits an opponent with Shadowsign, a vortex will be created at that opponent's position that will pull nearby opponents in.
Whenever the Bogglecat Box summoned by Magic Trick: Astonishing Shift fires a Vivid Shot, it will fire an extra Vivid Shot.
Increases the Level of Magic Trick: Astonishing Shift by 3.
Maximum upgrade level is 15.
Increases Enigmatic Feint's charges by 1.
Increases the Level of Enigmatic Feint by 3.
Maximum upgrade level is 15.
When Lynette uses Enigmatic Feint's Enigma Thrust, she will gain an Anemo Infusion and 20% Anemo DMG Bonus for 6s.

Voice Lines & Comments
Birthday
Happy Birthday! Let me give you this card... it's not a greeting card, so of course nothing's written on it. Write down what kind of present you want, place it in my hat, and no matter what it might be, you'll get it.
Self-Introduction
Hello
Pleased to make your acquaintance. I am Lyney's magic assistant, and if you have work-related inquiries, please ask Lyney. If you have questions related to seeing a magic show, please ask the ticket office. You want to talk to me? ...Then get to the point.
About Lynette: Magic
During our shows, I'm usually Lyney's assistant. Because I never speak or change expressions, people often mistake me for a puppet... this kind of misunderstanding can prevent unnecessary social interactions, so it's actually quite nice.
About Lynette: Intelligence Reports
Staying silent is beneficial for maintaining focus and gathering intelligence. Once, a VIP audience member at our show took out a handkerchief that didn't belong to his wife... as for how such information is used, now... that depends on what "Father" wants.
More About Lynette: I
If you explain a magic trick, then the allure of the performance is lost. Personal relationships are the same. If you want to understand me, why not learn a bit at a time, and gradually piece together a complete picture?
More About Lynette: II
Humans are complicated creatures. Even when they are not doing so intentionally, they will still unconsciously hide their true selves. Though I can always notice a few "redundant" details, I won't expose their facades when it isn't necessary.
More About Lynette: III
Magic shows were once our livelihood, but now they are more of a convenient identity to present to society. In the name of magic performances, we can easily gain more access throughout the city, and be the "eyes" of our House.
More About Lynette: IV
Before Lyney and I came to our new home, we were constantly adrift on the streets. We experienced many hardships and dangerous situations... It was then that I developed the habit of paying attention to any sign of danger, and also gradually learned to understand what others were thinking. Fortunately, we now have a safe place to live.
More About Lynette: V
Building a relationship with someone is like gambling. No matter how much information you have, it's hard to predict how other people might change. I've always had the habit of keeping a safe distance from others, but in your case... I'm willing to shoulder the risk of losing a bet.
About Us: Listening
I'm not accustomed to expressing myself, but I consider myself a good listener. If you have any troubles, come find me. I'll guard your secrets.
About Us: Interests
I used to think that the golden sun and dark shadows of the night could never understand one another. But in you, I see a kind of strange complexity that has needlessly piqued my curiosity... I'll have to keep a close eye on you.
Thoughts About Other Characters
Lyney
I have always been together with Lyney, and we can tell what the other is thinking without speaking. Thus, he tends to be more quiet than normal when we are alone. Hmm? Can I tell when he's lying or telling the truth? Of course I can, but this matter is top secret.
Lyney
Lyney is normally quite confident, and does everything with incredible ease... or at least, that's how he wants everyone else to see him. So when he runs into difficulties, he always wants to solve everything perfectly on his own... if this happens, please be sure to take good care of him.
Freminet
He is a delicate and gentle child, but also tends to belittle himself... perhaps due to his previous experiences. Sometimes he feels like the antithesis of Lyney... but since they're both family, when their opinions clash, I will bridge their differences.
Neuvillette
The Chief Justice always feels strangely aloof, though his words are always humble... or perhaps he just doesn't like dealing with humans? After all, when he speaks with Melusines, he's actually quite friendly.
Furina
Lady Furina's behavior is incredibly hard to explain, and I can't discern any useful intelligence from observing her. I always feel like her every move and action is an act, and she is playing different people... She truly is an Archon, one cannot apply the logic of ordinary humans to her.
Navia
Though she's the new president of Spina di Rosula, her style is more like the nosy big sister next door. If we really had a sister like her in the "House of the Hearth," that would be really great... I know I probably shouldn't be wishing for anyone to be an orphan, but...
Clorinde
I was once ordered to observe a duel of hers. Even just as a bystander, the coldness radiating from her was absolutely chilling... I don't know what it would be like to face her directly in a duel, and I hope I will never find out.
Chiori
The costumes Lyney and I wear for performances were specially tailored by Chiori. Once, Lyney was using a small knife for a magic trick, and accidentally cut the cuff of his sleeve a bit. She scolded us nonstop... it was scary. Luckily, I can hide behind Lyney whenever we go to her shop.
Charlotte
Uh... I was eventually cornered by her for interviews a few times. The way she persistently asked even after Lyney rejected her all those times, I really have to commend her perseverance. Too bad for her, though... despite preparing all those questions, I never answered a single one.
Emilie
Her perfume products are so popular that you have to get in line before the break of dawn to have a chance at snapping any up. However, I'm far too sensitive to the smell of perfume, and it's really rude to sneeze... so I have to take the long way around.
Escoffier
Hmm... I saw her tail wagging today. Must mean the new confection she came up with is a keeper. I'm looking forward trying it at the next tea party.
Hobbies & Personality
Lynette's Hobbies
A person's mental state is like a bowstring. If it's constantly under high tension, it will be at risk of suddenly snapping. So outside of work, I prefer to do things that relax my brain, like making tea, feeding cats, and just zoning out. The calmer one normally is, the easier it is to deal with crises when they do pop up.
Lynette's Troubles
I tend to have difficulties operating any kind of machinery. As soon as I stop paying attention, all kinds of things start to go wrong. Once, I even broke the dryer on a rainy day... At least Freminet is good at fixing things.
Favorite Food
Pry open the shells, squeeze a bit of lemon juice onto the fresh shellfish... no plate necessary. Perfection.
Least Favorite Food
Dishes should not be over-seasoned. Good food preserves the original taste of the ingredients.
Feelings About Ascension
Feelings About Ascension: Intro
My perception has been heightened.
Feelings About Ascension: Building Up
My processing speed... has become even faster.
Feelings About Ascension: Climax
I can see the conditions for victory now.
Feelings About Ascension: Conclusion
I never imagined I could become this powerful... looks like I won't need to hide behind you anymore.
Receiving a Gift
Receiving a Gift: I
Delicious. I've already memorized the recipe.
Receiving a Gift: II
Thank you for your generosity.
Receiving a Gift: III
Perhaps you could reconsider the spice ratio a bit?

Strengths & Weaknesses
- At Lv90, Lynette already gets +24% Anemo DMG Bonus baked into the ascension stat line — no artifacts needed for this part.
- Has crowd-control (knockback/pull/freeze/stun…) via Magic Trick: Astonishing Shift.
- The core mechanic (via Enigmatic Feint) scales with HP — HP% is also an easy-to-find substat, and the character usually comes with high survivability too.
- 4★ (Sword) — obtainable via the standard wish/banner, no need to pull on a limited banner.
- Since it scales with HP (via Enigmatic Feint), it can't share ATK%-geared artifacts with other DPS — needs a separate HP-focused artifact/weapon set.
- The ascension stat isn't CRIT Rate/DMG — this kit isn't built to carry the team's main damage, fitting a support/sub-DPS role better than a main carry.
Role Rankings
Machine-classified by scanning mechanic keywords in the OFFICIAL skill text (not another site's opinion ranking). Characters whose weapon type is inherently elemental (e.g. catalysts, bows) may not show "Does this well" for On-Field even if they can still be played on-field — this is a limit of text-based detection.
