Xianyun Character in Genshin Impact 4.4 Version
Xianyun is a 5-star Anemo character who uses a catalyst in combat. Her focus is not spending much time on the field fighting opponents, however. Xianyun’s Elemental Skill allows her to leap up into the air up to three times, and then dive, dealing Anemo DMG and boosting her party’s Plunging Attack CRIT Rate. Her Burst increases teammates' jump height, incentivizing them to execute Plunging Attacks, while also increasing their shockwave DMG.
How to Build the Best Xianyun Character in Genshin Impact 4.4 Version
Xianyun is a dedicated support who, instead of focusing on her personal damage, provides support for Plunging Attack teams. Not only does she offer desirable benefits to characters who already deal most of their damage through Plunging Attacks, like Xiao, but she enables characters that don’t already to become Plunging Attack DPS units. She debuts one the same banner as 4-star character Gaming, who deals most of his damage with Plunge Attacks.
Best Weapons for Xianyun Character in Genshin Impact 4.4 Version
Crane's Echoing Call: After the equipping character hits an opponent with a Plunging Attack, all nearby party members' Plunging Attacks will deal 80% increased DMG for 20s. When nearby party members hit opponents with Plunging Attacks, they will restore 3.5 Energy to the equipping character. Energy can be restored this way every 0.7s. This energy regain effect can be triggered even if the equipping character is not on the field.
This is the best weapon for Xianyun, as this Catalyst empowers her team whenever she does a Plunging Attack. Not only that but whenever her team does a Plunging Attack, they help charge up Xianyun's Elemental Burst. This allows her to use her Elemental Burst more often, which will allow the team to do more Plunging Attacks. This then goes right back into helping charge Xianyun's Elemental Burst, and the cycle goes on and on.
Skyward Atlas
Skyward Atlas is a decent 5-star option for Xianyun. It has a pretty high Base ATK and an additional ATK% bonus second stat, which is great for Cloud Retainer's buff.
Best Artifacts for Xianyun Character in Genshin Impact 4.4 Version
Xianyun can do many things on the battlefield, including healing, so it's beneficial when you build her with 4pc Song of Days Past. On one hand, the set improves Xianyun's healing. On the other, it provides her team with a decent damage buff.
If Xianyun is paired with units that she can Swirl with, like Electro, Hydro, Pyro, or Cryo users in Genshin Impact, building her with 4pc Viridescent Venerer becomes crucial since she will provide her team with a crucial debuff to the opponents.
Finally, like any Support in Genshin Impact, Xianyun works perfectly with 4pc Noblesse Oblige since it grants everyone, including herself 20% extra ATK when she uses Elemental Burst.
Best Team Comps with Xianyun in Genshin Impact 4.4 Version
Xianyun brings an entirely new playstyle to many characters allowing DPS characters to instead focus on Plunging instead of their main method of DPS. This can be an overall DPS increase to the following types of characters:
Characters who already focus on Plunging such as Xiao and Gaming;
Characters with high Plunge Attack scaling such as Diluc and Razor;
Characters who have or provide Elemental Infusion to themselves or the party. For example Bennett, Hu Tao, Chongyun and Furina (C6) to name a few. Additionally, Catalyst characters who have an AoE plunge such as Yae Miko.
The Elemental Infusion aspect is incredibly important because Plunge Attacks have no Internal Cooldown as a result of having longer animations meaning every Plunge Attack infused with an element will deal Elemental DMG and always react with any Elements already on an enemy.
It is also worth noting Albedo can be a great support in teams, but only with his C4 Descent of Divinity which buffs Plunging Attack DMG by 30%.
