Lingyang is a melee main damage dealer with one of the most unique play styles in Wuthering Waves, which you’ll either love or hate.
Lingyang, like Calcharo and Encore, deals the majority of his damage during his Ultimate, which gives him a significant damage boost and speeds up his access to his special enhanced state, which fuels all of his normal combos.
Aside from his ability to 'fly', Lingyang's mainly a single-target DPS. While attacking in the air, Lingyang has the ability to juggle one or more (non-elite or boss) foes into the sky with him, effectively leaving them helpless while hitting them.
Lingyang's playstyle can be hard to get used to at first but it has a certain rhythm that is not too hard to master. His overall DPS is a bit lower than Encore and Calcharo but good gear and players can definitely make up for it.
Now let's look at the best way to build Lingyang in Wuthering Waves.

Summary
Lingyang is a great boss killer who brings a lot of life and unique gameplay to Wuthering Waves. He can be a good character even for new players, as he can sometimes allow you to get away with greeding for damage due to his 'flying'.
While in the air, the player's control over direction, orientation, and dodging is significantly reduced. In addition, it is possible to make errors with boss and enemy hitboxes while flying, forcing you to miss entire attacks and combos, resulting in significant damage losses.
Lower control over both offense and defense will result in more dangerous battles and less consistent damage, making Lingyang a difficult character to play compared to other options.
Lingyang is not the best DPS in Wuthering Waves, but you should definitely give him a try if you happen to get him.
