Damage Profile
Team Fit
Ease of Play
Cartethyia 与 Jiyan 都是 Aero 主 C，但一个是 HP 加成、双形态（Cartethyia / Fleurdelys）的超模站场，一个是靠 Heavy Attack 爆发的 Broadblade 老牌主 C。把她们放一起比，是因为 Aero 玩家常问「新体系和老主 C 该养谁」。
伤害与机制
Cartethyia 是 Sword 主 C，伤害按最大 HP 而非 ATK 结算，靠 Aero Erosion 叠层在 Fleurdelys 形态打出爆发，机制独特、上限极高。Jiyan 是 Broadblade 主 C，核心是把 Resonance Skill 充能后倾泻 Heavy Attack，并由协奏位放大重击。一个靠 Erosion 与 HP Scaling，一个靠 Heavy Attack 与 Buff，输出逻辑完全不同。
最佳队友
Cartethyia 几乎绑定 Ciaccona 来稳定铺 Aero Erosion 并放大，再补 Shorekeeper / Verina；S0 时离了 Ciaccona 会掉收益。Jiyan 的经典解是 Mortefi（Heavy Attack 增幅）或 Iuno，同样收尾 Shorekeeper / Verina。两者都吃 Aero 增幅位，但 Cartethyia 更依赖专属 Erosion 辅助。
武器与声骸
Cartethyia 用 Defier's Thorn + Windward Pilgrimage(5pc) 配 Feilian Beringal，且主词条要堆 HP% 而非 ATK%，养成思路独树一帜。Jiyan 用 Verdant Summit + Sierra Gale(5pc)（同样 Feilian Beringal），走标准 CRIT / Aero DMG。两者声骸不通用，养 Cartethyia 得重新规划词条。
零氪与账号适配
Jiyan 是更老牌、低门槛的 Aero 主 C，Mortefi + Baizhi 的免费队就能跑，适合想低成本玩 Aero 的账号。Cartethyia 上限碾压但要求 Ciaccona 与 HP 词条投入，更像高难冲分选择。零氪先 Jiyan 保底，再追 Cartethyia 体系。
🎯 Verdict
追求 Aero 天花板、愿意投 Ciaccona 与 HP 养成的账号选 Cartethyia；想要低门槛、即战力的 Aero 主 C 选 Jiyan。若只养一个 Aero 核心，新号优先 Jiyan，成熟账号再补 Cartethyia 做顶配。
Which One Should You Choose?
If you need a main dps-style option, Cartethyia (Tier S) is the stronger pull. Jiyan (Tier S) is the better pick when you already cover that role or want the cheaper account fit. Both are viable 2026 options.
Consider your account when deciding. Look at the units and weapons you already own, the teams you already have built, and the content you struggle with most. Both Cartethyia and Jiyan are strong — the right choice depends on which fills a bigger gap in your roster.
