Verity's Handle
R1BestXiangli Yao's Signature weapon provides high Base ATK, CRIT Rate, DMG Bonus and an extra Liberation DMG Bonus effect when casting Ultimate. Since Jianxin's Ultimate is the majority of her damage, on top of its strong base stats, this weapon is her best in slot.

Moongazer's Sigil
R1Provides a significant amount of CRIT Rate and ATK and increases Liberation DMG by 20% throughout the whole rotation. Additionally allows Liberation DMG to ignore up to 36% enemy DEF after casting Intro (full stacks) or obtaining Shields (up to 5 stacks at 5 Shields applied). Jianxin can fulfill both of these conditions, but for the first out of her two alternating rotations, the Ultimate won't get the full DEF Ignore effect (only 10 ticks without the explosion). This makes the weapon rank lower than Xiangli Yao's, but she still uses it well.

Blazing Justice
R1The best generalist Gauntlets choice, providing high Base ATK and CRIT DMG while also giving a general 12% ATK and 8% DEF Ignore for 6s when casting Basic Attacks. Ensuring uptime on this effect for Jianxin's second rotation is rather difficult, but if properly done it can be as good as Moongazer's Sigil.

Tragicomedy
R1ATK and CRIT Rate stat-stick for Jianxin, who takes minimal advantage of this weapon's short-lasting Heavy Attack DMG-increasing effect.
104.6%

Abyss Surges
R1Jianxin's best permanently available Gauntlets choice. Increases Energy Regen which alleviates her requirements and also provides a huge amount of ATK. The Basic and Skill DMG increases aren't unused but not particularly strong. Still a very strong choice for Jianxin overall.

Percentages show relative damage performance from calculations; some weapons bring un-quantifiable quality-of-life on top.
Best Echo Sets
5-Piece Sonata
Moonlit Clouds
Offers 10% unconditional Energy Regen which makes reaching Energy requirements easier. Most importantly however, upon using Outro, grants the next character switching in a 22.5% ATK boost boosting their damage by a good amount.
