Damage Profile
Team Fit
Ease of Play
Jing Yuan 与 The Herta 都是 Erudition 主 C，一个是 Lightning 召唤、一个是 Ice 对群，玩家在『召唤流』还是『对群 AoE』之间常做对比。两者都靠特定机制放大输出。
伤害与机制
Jing Yuan 靠『神君』召唤物在叠层后打出高额闪电 AoE，越拖越强、吃行动提前让神君频繁出手。The Herta 则需要场上另有 Erudition 队友触发额外战技，靠高暴击 Ice 对群 AoE 清杂，上限随配置暴涨。
最佳队友
Jing Yuan 经典组合 Sunday/Bronya/Robin 提前神君 + 生存位。The Herta 必须配另一个 Erudition（Jade/Serval/小 Herta）+ Tribbie + 生存位才能触发额外战技。
光锥与遗器
Jing Yuan 用 Night on the Milky Way + 雷伤套装（如 Scholar 或 Band of Sizzle）。The Herta 签名 Into the Unreachable Veil，遗器 Scholar Lost in Erudition + Rutilant Arena / Izumo。
零氪与账号适配
零氪若已有 Sunday 且喜欢召唤节奏，Jing Yuan 成型顺；The Herta 需要另养一个 Erudition 队友与 Tribbie 才完全体，门槛略高但清杂更强。两者都吃辅助质量。
🎯 Verdict
选 Jing Yuan 如果你喜欢召唤节奏、已有行动提前辅助；选 The Herta 如果你要最强对群清杂、且愿多养一个 Erudition 队友。前者吃拉条、后者吃双 Erudition 配置。
