Xianyun’s Legendary Build

Talent Priority:

• Her normal attack does not go up.

• Her Elemental Skill doesn’t need to be leveled up.

• Her Elemental Burst is the most important since it’s the one that heals the team; level it up as much as possible.

The ideal setup would be 1/1/9 in terms of Talents.

Constellation Recommendation:

• Her C1 is very good since it gives you an additional Elemental Skill, which helps generate more particles.

• Her C2 is the best and the one I would recommend since it greatly increases your on-field character’s Plunge Attack damage.

Main Stats:

Clock: ATK% ------ Chalice: ATK% ------ Crown: ATK%.

Sub Stats:

It is recommended to get ATK%, Energy Recharge and Flat ATK.

Recommended Stats:

Try to get 4,500 ATK% and 190% Energy Recharge.

Important: I recommend using the Song of Days Past set in most teams that are fully focused on Plunge Attacks.

Important: If your Xianyun is C2, she should always use weapons that give high ATK, such as her signature weapon Crane’s Echoing Call or Skyward Atlas, and also in teams where the main DPS doesn’t benefit from the ATK provided by Thrilling Tales of Dragon Slayer.

If your Xianyun is C0/C1, in practically any situation she should use Thrilling Tales of Dragon Slayer, unless the main DPS doesn’t benefit from the ATK boost.

Xianyun Build Guide

Xianyun is a premier Anemo healer and Plunge Attack support who enables unique playstyles for many carries. This Xianyun build focuses on her ability to buff team damage through her passive talents and elemental burst healing.

Best Weapons

• Crane's Echoing Call: This is her signature five star catalyst and the best weapon for maximizing her support capabilities. It provides a massive ATK boost and restores energy to the user while buffing the entire team's plunge attack damage.
• Skyward Atlas: A strong five star alternative that offers high base ATK and a significant ATK percentage secondary stat. It helps Xianyun reach her high stat requirements to maximize the flat damage bonus provided to the active character.
• Oathsworn Eye: This limited event weapon is an excellent choice for balancing her needs. It provides a substantial ATK percentage and a massive Energy Recharge buff after using an Elemental Skill, making it easier to maintain her burst.
• Thrilling Tales of Dragon Slayers: A powerful three star support option for teams where the main DPS scales heavily with ATK. By switching from Xianyun to your carry, you provide a massive 48 percent ATK buff for ten seconds.

Best Artifacts

• Song of Days Past: This is the recommended artifact set for most plunge attack teams, especially when supporting Gaming. It converts Xianyun's high healing output into a flat damage bonus for the active character, further boosting their plunge hits.
• Viridescent Venerer: The best artifact set for Permafrost and elemental teams requiring resistance shred. It allows Xianyun to decrease the enemy's elemental resistance by 40 percent when she triggers a Swirl reaction, significantly increasing the team's overall damage.

Teams and Stat Priorities

• Stat Priorities: Focus on reaching 4500 total ATK to cap her passive buff while maintaining 180 percent to 190 percent Energy Recharge. Prioritize ATK percentage and flat ATK substats to ensure her healing and buffs are as strong as possible.
• Xiao Plunge Team: This premium team features Xiao, Faruzan, and Furina to create a powerful Hypercarry setup. Xianyun provides the necessary healing for Furina's Fanfare stacks while enabling Xiao to reach his maximum damage potential through her buffs.
• Gaming Vaporize Team: A highly effective team using Gaming, Furina, and Bennett to trigger massive Vaporize hits. Xianyun is essential here for enabling Gaming's plunge attacks and providing the Anemo utility needed to shred resistances and buff the team.
• Ayaka Freeze Team: In this Permafrost niche, Xianyun works alongside Shenhe and Furina to keep enemies frozen. She provides the necessary healing to sustain the team while using Viridescent Venerer to shred Cryo resistance for Ayaka's powerful burst.
