Light Cone
Those Many SpringsIts Effect Hit Rate and two-stage received-damage debuff maximize Jiaoqiu's team amplification.
When to use it : The listed 178% Effect Hit Rate target is required only when pursuing reliable S1 Cornered application into 40% Effect RES.
Lies Dance on the BreezeIts high SPD and team damage-taken debuff support Jiaoqiu's fast Ultimate and debuffing role.
Resolution Shines As Pearls of SweatEnsnare adds a separate DEF reduction for the team's damage after Jiaoqiu hits.
When to use it : Use it when the team can capitalize on the one-turn DEF reduction and Jiaoqiu has enough Effect Hit Rate from relics.
Before the Tutorial Mission StartsEffect Hit Rate and Energy returned after attacking DEF-reduced enemies help Jiaoqiu open his Zone sooner.
This event cone is obtainable without limited Warp pulls when its event/store availability is active.
Eyes of the PreyEffect Hit Rate stabilizes Ashen Roast while its DoT bonus improves the secondary Burn contribution.
This permanent four-star Warp cone is easier to obtain and superimpose than a limited signature.
Relics
The 25% post-Ultimate advance creates more attacks and debuff applications for Acheron's stack economy.
When to use it : Use the Ultimate before the extra action so Eagle advances Jiaoqiu without desynchronizing the Zone refresh.
Messenger's SPD and Prisoner's ATK are both active two-piece bonuses for Jiaoqiu's fast DoT support build.
It reuses strong SPD and DoT pieces while a complete Eagle or Prisoner set is still being farmed.
Prisoner adds ATK and scales damage through enemy DoTs.
When to use it : Prefer it only in a DoT-oriented team where Jiaoqiu's Burn is a meaningful part of the damage plan.
Planar Ornaments
Energy Regeneration and the opening advance establish Ashen Roast before the team's first burst.
When to use it : Reach at least 120 SPD so the opening Action Advance activates before the damage dealers act.
Broken Keel turns a defensive Effect RES threshold into team-wide CRIT DMG.
When to use it : Reach the set's 30% Effect RES requirement without giving up the EHR and SPD needed for Jiaoqiu's debuffs.
It adds Effect Hit Rate and converts that stat into ATK for Jiaoqiu's personal Burn damage.
When to use it : Use only at 100% Effect Hit Rate or higher so Pan-Cosmic's full ATK conversion is active.
Team lineup
Jiaoqiu supplies frequent debuffs, Pela layers DEF reduction and Aventurine sustains while adding another debuff.
When to use it : Keep Jiaoqiu's Zone active before Acheron's Ultimate; only one eligible debuff event per ability use grants her charge.

Sources and methodology
Editorial recommendations are written from released game data, then cross-checked against specialist calculations. They are not copied from a single tier list.
Review method
Character kits, equipment and conditions reviewed against released Version 4.6 data. Retained kit 140% EHR, about 178% for S1 Cornered and Zone before Acheron; one debuff event per ability. Cones 21066, 23055 and 23064 are Elation, while 23063 is Remembrance; their passives are incompatible with this Path. 22008 is Hunt and grants no passive outside that Path. New cones are not Nihility; 134 adds Basic/CRIT without improving Ashen Roast or enemy charge frequency. Set 133 needs single-ally targeting and buffs Elation; its team CRIT bonus needs ten Certified Banger, which this kit does not provide. 178% assumes 40% enemy RES; Zone charges and EHR do not grant unlimited Acheron stacks. No new damage simulation or refreshed community consensus; effect review uses the exact local 4.6 snapshot, with GitHub web access unavailable. This review includes no new damage simulation; historical community-analysis consultation dates are preserved. Methodological baseline from the previous dossier (review 4.4, reference calculations 3.3): Prydwen and Icy Veins were checked independently against the local 4.4 kit. Ashen Roast provides stacking damage vulnerability and counts as Burn; the Ultimate Zone adds Ultimate vulnerability and can apply one stack on each eligible enemy action until its six-trigger budget is exhausted. 140% Effect Hit Rate caps Hearth Kindle's ATK conversion; about 178% is instead the separate S1 signature consistency target against 40% Effect RES.

Independent fan recommendations for an E0 support; the 140% Effect Hit Rate target caps his ATK conversion, not every signature-cone roll.
