Xilonen Build Guide - GenshinMinMax

Xilonen’s Role and Skills

Xilonen is a hybrid support designed to shred the Elemental RES of her enemy. This is done through her Elemental Skill (E) where her Samplers can be activated to decrease opponents’ Elemental RES. She can hold up to 3 Samplers each corresponding to her team Elements (Pyro/Hydro/Cryo/Electro) with each Sampler starting as Geo.

Artifact set

Scroll of the Hero of Cinder City (4)

Easily Xilonen’s Best-in-Slot (BiS) as it provides up to 40% Elemental DMG Bonus for her party members when triggering elemental reaction while in Nightsoul’s Blessing state.
Add this with Xilonen’s Elemental RES shred and it pretty much makes her the ideal support for Natlan team.

Obsidian Codex (4)

DPS Xilonen’s best artifact because it gives a whopping 40% Crit Rate simply by consuming Nightsoul point. On top of that, the 2pc also gives her an extra 15% DMG while she’s rollerblading.

Marechaussee Hunter (4)

A viable set for DPS Xilonen if you’re specifically running her with Furina and a healer that isn’t Pyro/Electro/Cryo/Hydro (PECH). This is so that you can fulfill her A1 passive of having fewer than 2 Samplers for the 30% increased DMG on her Normal and Plunge attacks. Additionally, you’ll also need another Geo in the team for Geo Resonance.

Weapon

Peak Patrol Song (5✩)
_{Xilonen’s signature}

Xilonen’s best weapon for both Support and DPS roles. It provides a hefty DEF stat boost on its secondary stat and passive. Additionally it also gives up to 25.6% Elemental DMG Bonus to your whole team when she hit enemy twice with her Normal or Plunge.

To hit max cap on the 25.6% Elemental DMG Bonus, Xilonen needs to have 2,865 DEF. This is because she would gain an additional 20% DEF from her A4 passive and then 16% DEF from Peak Patrol passive bringing her total to 3,200 DEF.

Freedom-Sworn (5✩)

2nd Best-in-Slot for Xilonen as the passive can provide NA and an ATK buff for her team. Keep in mind that you would need to trigger Crystallize twice with Xilonen to gain the weapons’ passive buff and Crystallize has a 1s ICD.
This means she’ll either need to do <E delay N1> or <E Q N1 N2> to ensure Crystallize is triggered twice before swapping out.

Uraku Misugiri (5✩)

DPS Xilonen’s 2nd best option only losing to Peak Patrol (5✩) by ~4%. It provides a massive 88% Crit DMG stat, NA buff, E buff and DEF buff which all benefits her on-field playstyle.

Favonius Sword (4✩)

Favonius is her universal best 4-star weapon as it allows her to generate energy particles for her team and its ER secondary stat helps her Burst (Q) uptime. Although it doesn’t contribute towards Xilonen’s personal damage, she does negligible damage as a support anyway so it doesn’t matter.

Flute of Ezpitzal (4✩)

Xilonen’s best ‘F2P’ weapon since its a forgeable Natlan weapon. The weapon provides a maximum of 69% DEF as its secondary stat and up to another 32% DEF from its passive at R5. She benefits from both boosting her own personal damage.
At R5 its her 3rd best weapon for a DPS build beating other 5-star option.
