Review

Lin Xien is one of the best SR rarity employees in the game, mainly because she is one of the few Batteries (meaning she can restore the Deployment Resources that are used to deploy employees) available. While she is a 4 cost employee, she gives 2 DR instantly back once you deploy her, and if she survives to cast her ultimate ability, you earn 4 more DR. This makes her one of the best choices for high-cost teams with multiple Awakened Employees.

Still, she requires good gear to work - a good defensive CDR set is almost required for her in most content so she can survive while still being able to print money.

Pros & Cons
Pros

- she is one of the few Batteries in the game,

- and the best one at that.

Cons

- gear hungry; she really wants high CDR for herself to unlock her full potential,

- causes economic inflation due to the amount of money she prints.
