Overview

  • Elemental RES shred
  • Healer
  • Geo support

Xilonen is a support who lowers enemy Elemental RES for the elements in your team. Her Samplers start as Geo, and each Pyro, Hydro, Cryo or Electro teammate turns one of them into that element. Her Elemental Skill puts her into Nightsoul's Blessing; with at least two changed Samplers, a few kicks fill her Nightsoul points and switch all three Samplers on, and they keep lowering RES after she leaves the field. Her Elemental Burst heals the active character when at least two Samplers have changed element, or deals extra Geo damage when fewer than two have.

Her damage and healing both scale with DEF, so give her DEF and enough Energy Recharge for the Burst. She cannot lower Anemo or Dendro RES, so she works best with Pyro, Hydro, Cryo, Electro or Geo damage dealers.

Weapons

Best first. Every sword on this list links to its page.

  1. Peak Patrol Song ★★★★★

    Her signature sword. A large DEF main stat, an Elemental DMG Bonus for her, and a team-wide Elemental DMG Bonus that grows with her DEF.

  2. Favonius Sword ★★★★

    Plenty of Energy Recharge and extra particles on crits. Makes her Burst much easier to keep up in teams that need her healing.

  3. Flute of Ezpitzal ★★★★

    A DEF main stat and more DEF after her Skill. A simple 4-star that boosts her healing directly.

  4. Cinnabar Spindle ★★★★

    A DEF main stat plus extra Skill damage based on DEF. The DEF is what matters here; the damage bonus is a small extra.

Artifact sets

  1. Scroll of the Hero of Cinder City 4-piece

    The standard choice. She triggers reactions while in Nightsoul's Blessing, which unlocks the larger team-wide Elemental DMG Bonus, and the 2-piece refunds Energy.

  2. Archaic Petra 4-piece

    An alternative when someone else already holds the Scroll set. Picking up Crystallize shards boosts the team's element.

  3. Husk of Opulent Dreams + Ocean-Hued Clam 2-piece each

    A stopgap built for her support role: extra DEF and Healing Bonus for stronger healing while you farm the Scroll set.

Teams

  • Mavuika team

    Xilonen lowers Pyro and Cryo RES and her Scroll set adds more damage. Her healing and Bennett's keep the team safe while Mavuika stays on the field.

  • Navia Geo team

    Bennett and Furina change two of her Samplers, so her Burst heals, and her Geo Sampler still lowers Geo RES for Navia's big hits.

  • Mualani Vaporize

    Xilonen lowers both Hydro and Pyro RES, which helps Mualani's Vaporized bites and Xiangling's off-field fire at the same time.

Tips

  • With two or more changed Samplers, use her Skill and kick an enemy until her Nightsoul points fill. Once the Samplers switch on, swap out; the RES drop keeps working off the field.
  • Count the elements in your team before using her. With two or more Pyro, Hydro, Cryo or Electro teammates her Burst heals; with fewer it deals extra Geo damage instead.
  • Her Samplers only cover Geo, Pyro, Hydro, Cryo and Electro, so she adds little to Anemo or Dendro damage.
  • Skip CRIT stats on her unless you have nothing better. DEF and Energy Recharge do much more for her role.

Other character guides recommend Xilonen as a teammate in these teams.
