1. Can someone explain how Xilonen’s Elemental Skill works to me as if I were a grade-schooler, cause I can’t make any sense of that word salad.

   • Basically for every unit in your team that is PECH (pyro, electro, cryo, hydro) you gain a stack. You cannot gain more than 1 stack from any same element.

     When she uses her skill, she gains an aura that reduces elemental resistances corresponding to the elements that give Xilonen a stack. Xilonen will always count as a Geo stack.

     That’s pretty much all the important parts. The other part is, use skill, get new attack moves, attack gains nightsoul bar, she does something special at full bar 🤷🏽.

3. I understand what she does but not how she does it. Can someone give me an example rotation setup for her?

   • For off-field builds, just E N2 -> next character

     If the on-field character is Geo, use her rotation after an enemy has any element applied that she can trigger Crystalize with for the SHCC artifact buff, or element match with significant off-field Pyro/Hydro/Cryo/Electro damage dealers.

     If the on-field character is Pyro/Hydro/Cryo/Electro, make sure she triggers Crystalize with that element.

     Burst is optional, none of her buffs/debuffs are tied to it.

4. so apart from that DEF shred and conditional healing, what does she offer to be that good as everyone says?
   she’s a fkn 5star not 4star, to me it’s not broken at all
   it’s good, quite good if you want, but if you have to spend so many primos for it it’s not that awesome
   to me is nothing but a c2 bait, and possible even weapon; with this combo and ofc the new set she’ll be cracked, but at c0 she’s ok not “broken”
   c2 puts her into SS tier for sure tho

   • So basically, she has a built in, “VV set” that allows “double swirl” setups with ease and will work with ALL elements (Geo can now benefit from viri levels of res shred) EXCEPT Anemo and Dendro for 15s vs the 10s of VV, whilst being capable of using the new artifact set that gives similar DMG bonuses of that of a 1k EM Kazuha (40% DMG bonus), on top of giving interruption resist (at c1) and healing for the on-field character just by having 2 elements other than Geo (meaning even Mono Hydro Neuv will work).

     What does this mean exactly? You’re getting the 2nd coming of Kazuha, albeit no grouping. BUT, she does provide something else that Kazuha can’t bring, and that is longer res shred duration and most importantly DOUBLE element res shred is actually now doable (say goodbye to tryharding hydro-pyro double swirl as Xilonen can do that with a press of a button). And yes, we can’t forget that she can heal, so basically every team Furina is in will be better.

     Just think of her as having 2 Kazuhas available on your account with slightly different niche. And that’s why everyone’s wildin about her.

   • C0 is on par with Kazuha, with healing instead of CC and better uptime
     Kazuha is already viewed as SS tier

5. Me: Sees Xilonen is a healer and is perfect for my Itto, Gorou and Furina team as the 4th unit ☺️
   Me after seeing she needs two elements other than Geo to heal: 💀

   We were on the verge of greatness! We were this close!

   Screw it. Itto you need to wait for longer for that Geo healer and buffer member to replace Albedo/Chiori.

   The res shred plus artifact set would be good, but if she could heal then Furina’s damage wouldn’t suffer. I got my Furina to C2 just for Itto. But a healer for that team would just be better.

   • not true. as Kazuha’s passive for dmg bonus buff is triggered on swirl, it is much easier for him to swirl and buff multiple elements than Xilonen.

     for one, Xilonen can’t double crystallize and crystallize has 1s cooldown, making Kazuha more easy to use on boss chambers, and also, Xilonen is likely to not be the only geo character in the team, yet the set she is best with only triggerd from the wielder of set, like Archaic Petra.

     on top of that, Xilonen apply or reapply the buff outside of her skill, since the extra 28% dmg bonus only happens if Xilonen is in nightsoul blessing.

     kazuha would be better for double swirl and act as additional source of elemental application.

   • she doesnt need another geo except you want to play her on her Burst Dmg. on c0 without signature weapons there isnt a real differennce. Both having high res shred and 40% elemental dmg bonus with the right artefacts. The main difference would be the play style. Kazuha can apply elements very well and can pull enemys together, while xilonens movement is her winning point + the healing she gets done. Only if you would consider signature weapons and/or cons (c2+) xilonen would be getting way up ahead.

    • Xilonen:
      + 36% Res Shred from E
      + 40% DMG Bonus from Natlan Artifact
      + Single Target Heal (enables Furina to some extend)
      + at C1 slight Interuption Resistance
      + at C2 40% Attack Buff / 40% HP Buff / 50% CD Buff / 30% CR Buff / Extra Energy

      Kazuha:
      + 40% Res Shred from VV
      + 40% DMG Bonus from passive (assuming 1k EM)
      + CC/Grouping (ideal for some team comps)
      + At C2 +200 EM to everyone

      I’d say at C0 they’re pretty close together, but with C2 Xilonen would outperform Kazuha

      • You should read her signature weapon text again. The crit rate and dmg buffs are for the equipped char, not the team.
        The team gets another 26% dmg buff from her weapon

    • So, basically the thing is VV debuff lasts for 10 sec and Kazuha needs to be onfield to proc it wich is not ideal for fights with more than one wave, and is not 100% accurated to say that he has 40% dmg bonus bcs to archive it you need 1000 EM on Kazuha, and is not realistic to have 1000 EM and the ER he needs to proc his ult often.
      On the other hand Xilonen debuff lasts for 15 sec (with 7sec cd skill) and she doesn’t need to hit the targets to apply it, it works like Zhongli’s shield, and with the new Natlan set she can grant 40% dmg bonus for 20sec to her team just by triggering Crystallize. She also has healing which is ideal if you are running her with Furina and she also can buff Geo characters.
      Still i don’t think is right to assume that she is just “better”, there’s situations where you still prefere Kazuha, for expample if you want to take advantege of his ultimate’s elemental application or if you need his cc.
      I’d say they are both the greatest universal supports, and you can always run each of them on one of the teams you need on the abyss

      • This is just, wow. Both Kazuha and Xilonen provide almost the same buffs but each of them do it differently + brings something else to the table.

        What makes Kazuha so powerful is his flexible grouping AoE + non-neglible swirl DMG alongside his buffs and 4pc VV.

        Xilonen is the opposite where 4pc Natlan Set gives the DMG bonuses and she herself reduces the res shred of all enemies according to the team’s elements.

        What I’m most exited about her is the fact that Double Swirl comps are now possible with her. Now I can play vape comps which both Hydro and Pyro are getting the benefits of the res shred. Same with melt comps and any other comps that have 2 major elements into play.

        I also like how her supportive buffs and debuffs lasts a LONG time (15s) compared to Kazuha’s 10s VV and 8s DMG buff, meaning I can stay on the field for longer/multiwave content is wayy smoother.

        Let’s also not forget that Geo is finally gonna get access to VV levels of res shred. Navia’s absurd damage will become even more absurd thanks to Xilonen.

        And the most disgusting part about this is, the strongest character Neuv, is gonna get even stronger by replacing Zhongli with Xilonen on the Mono Hydro comp. He’s getting 76% total res shred on top of 40% from Natlan Arti, another 40% from 1k EM Kazuha, and max of 75% DMG bonus from Furina burst. And if you get c1 Xilonen, you basically have c1 Neuv at home.

        Lastly, we don’t even know what the Pyro Archon does yet. So most probably she’s just gonna pair extremely well with the Archon and is going to be even stronger in the long run.

        Yh, I expect a couple of adjustments after this v1, but as long as nothing major gets changed, she’s undeniably gonna join the top of all tops.

        And ofc, she’s not replacing anyone. In all actuality, she’s most probably just gonna be used together with Kazuha OR be slotted in teams where Kazuha also fits.

    • Kazuha gets 40% dmg bonus if he has 1,000 em (32% if you can reach the more reasonable 800 goal) and gets 40% res shred from the VV set
      Xilonen gets 36% res shred and gets 40% dmg bonus from the new artifact set

      Kazuha gets CC while Xilonen gets healing

      Xilonen has a longer duration, and the new artifact set can be triggered from off-field unlike VV
      Xilonen is usable with geo characters and in teams where its hard to swirl the right element (although getting crystallise to trigger her artifact bonus may still be a pain)
      While she’s not replacing Kazuha, she seems like an easier to use sidegrade in teams where he works (unless his CC is needed) and a new option in teams where he didn’t (E.g Navia teams) or you can just use both together (Neuvilette teams)
