Best Genshin Impact Xilonen build guide: Artifacts, weapons, and team comps

Xilonen in Genshin Impact is a new 5-star Geo character and one of the best supports. She can shred the enemies' elemental resistance while also buffing the team's damage. Not only that but depending on the elements of her party members, her Elemental Burst allows her to be a very good healer or a solid Geo damage dealer. However, building her properly is important to get the best out of her.

Luckily, Xilonen is easy to build and has a lot of good 5-star and 4-star weapon options. Without further delay, this article will list the best artifacts, weapons, and team comps for Xilonen in Genshin Impact.

Best artifacts for Xilonen in Genshin Impact

Here's a list of all the best artifact sets for Xilonen in Genshin Impact:

• 4-pc Scroll of the Hero of Cinder City
• 4-pc Husk of Opulent Dreams
• 2-pc Husk of Opulent Dreams + 2-pc Emblem of Severed Fate

Scroll of the Hero of Cinder City is the best artifact set for Xilonen. It works nicely with her kit and allows her to provide a lot of elemental damage bonuses to the entire team. Alternatively, Husk of Opulent Dreams is also good for a sub-DPS build. However, if you don't have a good set, going for a mix with Husk and Opulent Dreams and Emblem of Severed Fate is also viable.

Focus on these stats for a proper support build:

Sands	DEF% or Energy Recharge
Goblet	DEF%
Circlet	DEF% or Healing Bonus%
Sub-stats	DEF, ER, CRIT Rate, CRIT DMG

Try to get as much DEF as you can, along with a bit of Energy Recharge for smoother rotation.

For a sub-DPS build, you can focus on the following artifact stats:

Sands	DEF%
Goblet	Geo DMG Bonus
Circlet	CRIT Rate or CRIT DMG
Sub-stats	CRIT Rate, CRIT DMG, DEF%, ER

This build will provide less healing, but it will increase Xilonen's overall damage output.

Best weapons for Xilonen in Genshin Impact

Xilonen is a Sword user, and her damage and healing abilities primarily scale on DEF. Luckily, there are plenty of good 5-star and 4-star options for her. Here are some of the best weapons for Xilonen:

• Peak Patrol Song (5-star)
• Uraku Misugiri (5-star)
• Freedom-Sworn (5-star)
• Flute of Ezpitzal (4-star)
• Cinnabar Spindle (4-star)
• Favonius Sword (4-star)
• Traveler's Handy Sword (3-star)

Peak Patrol Song is Xilonen's best weapon since it gives a ton of DEF and other damage bonuses from its secondary stat and passive effect. Alternatively, Freedom-Sworn is a good option for her when paired with characters like Arlecchino and Neuvillette. For a sub-DPS build, Uraku Misugiri is a good choice since it gives a ton of CRIT DMG as well as a DEF bonus.

Meanwhile, Flute of Ezpitzal is Xilonen's best F2P weapon in the game. It is a craftable weapon, but you will need the Borderland Sword Billet to forge it. You can also give her Favonius Sword for energy issues.

Xilonen talent priorities

You can level up Xilonen's talents in the following order:

1. Elemental Skill
2. Elemental Burst
3. Normal Attack

Xilonen's elemental resistance shredding ability comes from her Elemental Skill, so leveling it up first is important. After this, you can raise her Elemental Burst level for extra healing and damage. You can ignore her Normal Attack talent if you don't plan to use her as a DPS unit.
