XIAO IS META NOW? Updated Xiao Build & Review - Best Artifacts, Weapons & Teams | Genshin Impact

[@Zy0x]

XIAO IS BACK. LAMENT. LET ME KNOW WHAT YOU THINK OF THIS TYPE OF VIDEO. I tried to combine a review video and a build video in one, covering what changed and how to build him & his teams, talking about why he is strong now & how to get the most value out of his build, without repeating the basics covered in my previous Xiao Guide (reference that for talent & combo advice). Hope you enjoyed! Oh and... Diluc Complete Guide is coming... soon...

What a very honest, tall, charismatic streamer. Surely he doesn't say "Mods, find his location, then-don't dox them, don't do that. Then go there, take their pillow right, remove the pillow case, put on a new one that's a bit less comfy and then make sure it's warm. Put a heater under the pillow, integrated into the pillow case, so that the pillow is always warmon both sides. Then take their phone charger, tangle it a little to where it only charges at a specific angle. Then plug that back into the wall in a loose way where it's gonna fall out when they plug their phone in and then they're gonna have to be inconvenienced because their phone won't actually work anymore, it won't charge. They think it'll charge but it won't charge properly, so their alarm won't go off next morning, they're gonna miss their flight, miss their ride to work, their boss is gonna be like "listen here, this is the SIXTH TIME you've been late". Fired, lose their job, all because-I don't remember what their message was, but they chose to make a joke." When somebody jokes about them.

[@brmbltbr4]

If your phone only charges at a specific angle, there's likely a buildup of micro dust in the phones outlet. Carefully scrape it out with a wooden toothpick and it should work normally again. You would be surprised by how stiff and hard that dust becomes, when you always tamp it in with the charger. Just blowing won't sufice.

[@NiqSyazz]

Great Xiao guide mr Zy0x, but have u ever considered to Release intense flames to knock back nearby opponents, dealing Pyro DMG. The flames then converge into the weapon, summoning a Phoenix that flies forward and deals massive Pyro DMG to all opponents in its path. The Phoenix explodes upon reaching its destination, causing a large amount of AoE Pyro DMG. The searing flames that run down his blade cause it to be infused with Pyro.

[@Pheonee]

Last year, on your previous Xiao guide, I commented that I would probably never pull Xiao for myself due to struggling to plunge properly on mobile, but still enjoyed getting to witness your passion and love for him, as he is one of my favourite characters in the entire game. One year later, I have now pulled Xiao and he is level 90 with 10/9/9 talents (working towards triple crown), and I have shocked myself with how much I enjoy his playstyle now that I've managed to get used to it. I unfortunately could not afford Xianyun this year (pulled nearly 150 times on her banner coping) but she is now top of my priority list for reruns and I managed to c6 my Faruzan. The moral of the story is to never give up on your dreams because it is possible for even a mobile gamer stuck on 300 ping to lament with tallest of them

Bro! I did a single pull while watching your video and got him! Thank you Mr. Zy0x!

[@Ethos711]

Xiao is my favorite character in Genshin, but I had basically stopped using him a long time ago because my second team was never strong enough to make up for his shortcomings. But thanks to Xianyun and finally C6 on Faruzan, Xiao is back, baby. It is so nice to play him and not feel like I'm handicapping myself.

[@LordFinkenstein]

I'm jealous, I only needed one more faruzan to c6 her and was long way from pity so I had plenty of chances to get her before xainyun...so naturally I'm now the proud owner of a c6 Gaming instead. 🥲

I pulled Xianyun for Xiao and while pulling on the weapon banner a few patches back I got Primodial Jade Winged Spear. I figured since I was getting Xianyun anyway and I got lucky and got C6 Faruzan in the process I should maybe go for Xiao too since I don't have an Anemo main dps at the moment (no wanderer) and I already had his signature and no one to use it on. Very glad I got him! Strongboxing Vermillion has been cringe but I got a really good feather and flower and...serviceable sands and circlet. I have an insane 42 CV off set anemo goblet from waaaay back when though that I have not been able to use until now though and that's really tying his build together. Loving his playstyle so far, getting the hang of NA/Dash canceling his plunges so I can get more of them in. I'm really good at dash canceling with Diluc but not so good with Xiao yet, but that comes with practice. Very fun character and very glad I have him now. Furina has really opened up a lot of teams for me and I'm very glad I invested in her.

[@nox-s8o]

When is Zy0x streaming? I've been watching him for some time now, and ICANT get enough of him. Everytime I see him streaming, I abandon whatever i am doing because nothing is as important to me as mr socks strimming. I savor every morsel of his streams. His beautiful, curly brown hair; his voice, his jokes, his monologues, his quotes; it's like I could spend my while life watching his streams. And don't even get me started on how impeccable he is when he puts on an official costume. But for some reason, he hasnt streamed for whole 2 days now. I started feeling anxiety. Genuine fear, even. How can i live though another ordinary day of my grey, meaningless life without him? He's like a warm fire that warms me at cold nights and lightens my depressing days. He's the goliath that's holding this world on his shoulders, and i MEAN IT. (true) I will not elaborate, because i do not know further. The only thing i know for real is that he is the vermillion crit damage crit rate piece to my Xiao.

[@kazucrits]

Finally completed my Xiao Team recently with the last 2 Cons for Faruzan and he is doing actually fucking solid. But my problem is, I use him with Bennett (+ Xianyun ofc) instead of Furina because I just don’t like her but the damage buffs compared to Benny are worth it no? Maybe I should pull for her next rerun idkkkk

[@lordpaulphilippfernandez9904]

You're stuck in Circle Impact then. The biggest benefit of using Furina with Xianyun is that all of your buffs are not locked in an area, so you can theoretically go from 1 side of the Abyss to the other and still retain them completely.

[@Kim_Imyoung]

I have been playing genshin impact close to 2& 1/2 tears now and have loved diluc from the beginning. From the day that I got him 10/09/2021 I have wanted to make the best diluc out there. I wanted to be the #1 Diluc main from the beginning akin to the way Jake Tuonto claimed to be the #1 Jean main. I think I have a good Diluc but I am never able to tell because Im not the math guy or the guide maker here. I have C6 Bennet, I have Kazuha, I have furina and kokomi and C6 Xinqiu and Yelan.

[@eff-fume]

While yes the premium team is rather expensive at least Furina is a very universal character and worth getting either way. I've had a lot of fun with this dream team. The flexibility and forgiving energy requirments as well as not having to deal with downsides like circle impact and single target restrictions anymore is a huge win. Upside is that once you have all the pieces to this team, it is unlikely there will be too many more upgrades added longterm at least I so believe. I am glad our man got the attention he deserved.

[@lnsflare1]

Speaking from personal experience, of you are running Faruzhan with both Xiao and Xianyun, ER isn't much of an issue anymore for any of them, especially if you've unlocked C1 for either Xiao or Xianyun.

Oh one thing to note about Zhongli, he does offer Anemo Shred with his shield. So you get shields and anemo shred from him. Jean of course works well but would need C4 for her shred, still a nice healer. That is of course if you don't have Faruzan, like myself. Just base Zhongli is quite a good combo to use and not to expensive to get. Venti C2 also works. I actually have that Venti, I wonder if he'll be useful at all?
