Xianyun doesn’t have to be good (even though she is) She’s not a character that helps you beat the game she’s one that makes you want to keep playing. Fun movement, fast movement, healing, no standing inside a stupid circle, unlocks unique play style on a lot of characters where even if it’s not better damage it’s not worse. She’s all fun and QoL upgrades
I agree and can’t stress the “fun movement” enough, especially if you have c1. I used to spawn at the laziest teleports now I actually don’t mind just running there. Like doing the “good fortune” commission for example. I loathed it, now xianyun gets across liyue for that commission in no time.
Xianyun might not be a must pull or a top tier meta unit.. but its been more than a year that I finally got a character that made me enjoy the game again due to the new mechanic she brought to the table.. I been replaying the abyss with different unimaginable units and I've been able to clear it with no issue at all. All this week I'm finally doing more stuff in the game than just dailies and resin. Maybe the enjoyment wont last but at least I hope Hoyo keeps making unique characters like her
The Bennet onfield carry is pretty insane I ain't gonna lie. Also now i hope to see a good cryo offield applier subdps to reliably enable melting these things
3:10 Really weird way to say "Levels aren't as good on her, but still no." She gains Base atk (as everyone does) and has an atk% ascension. It's a big deal for getting more out of said ascension talent.
the only meaningful boost she gets is her healing, the plunge shockwave thing means jackshit when you're playing her to use other characters' chunky plunge multipliers
I think Zajeff here just said he's prioritising Gaming building over Xianyun in the weirdest way Like if you want want to cheap out and that last bit of atk isnt super important to you at least get 80/90 for the last ascension. 12% to 90 is still a decent bit you are losing out on
You need more atk to feed the talent my dude. Especially if you're not using her weapon. Also, the healing does matter, the more you heal, the faster you build Fanfare. There's NO reason to be cheap with your resources unless you've been playing for a month or less. @@Nathan-bj2vz
Yeah you can, but every time you skill will consume the energy if I’m not wrong, so just use one at the start of the rotation, but if you have crimson or maracheussee just use them as they’re better
i personally do, because diluc gets pyro infusion from bennet anyways. the 20% pyro dmg bonus for 4 seconds after bursting on diluc gets is not worth the time of the burst animation.
@@OfficialFo the 20% Pyro Damage Bonus is for the whole duration of his Infusion, not for 4s The 4s mentioned in the passive is Infusion duration extension from 8s to 12s Still probably not worth using if you have a C6 Bennett.
In a solo anemo team (e.g. xianyun in a hu tao team) that would be difficult. In a xiao team (xiao, faruzan, xianyun) it can work but more is always better.
Unless your rotations are 24s long you won't be able to use 2 skills every rotation, so her C1 is helpful evry now and then or if you started the next chamber with too little energy and so on, so I'd stick with oathsworn eye. On the brightside that con is so good in overworld! I'm hoping I can get mine to C1 as well while I keep pulling for more gamings
i was really worried about her energy and no er weapon/signature, but at 186% with a team that generates a decent amount of particles she feels really comfortable and im glad for that
No :c because plunged attacks don't actually count for her ulti stacks. Technically, you can use her because of her healing, but it won't be an upgrade comparing Xianyun to Jean, and usually people prefer other healers in Eula teams, such as Mika.
my xianyun using signature weapon have permanent ultimate with 163 of ER in Hu Tao + Yelan (without fav) + Furina (whitout fav too) sooo... but that always depending of how many enemies do you kill or how many attacks do you made
Hello zajef, great video as always :) I do wonder about how to build c0 xiao in c2 furina c0 xianyun c6 faruzan team First which set should you go: Vermilion / Marechaussee / 2pc2pc Anemo +15% x2 / 2pc2pc Attack +15% x2 And if you do chose set then which stat would better Atk% or Anemo%?
this isn't zajef's channel, but vermillion is best especially if you have a crit rate weapon, if you are using something like vortext vanquisher and would rather farm the mh/gt domain then you can use marechausee. use anemo% if you're using vermillion, if you're using faruzan then atk% can be as good if the substats are really good
@@dalzmc with Xianyun dmg% gets quite a bit of value even with c2 Furina's buff, Xiao own buff and Faruzan so Anemo may still be prefered. Difference between the two sets are marginal
if youre using venti then youre using his burst, his burst will pull enemies too high for plunge, venti used to be popular with diluc for dragon strike but too complicated, if you have venti and xainyun just use them in their respective teams to make abyss easier
@@sueyu7536 I think he meant Venti Hold E which create a upward wind current for a long duration but issue with that is that its aoe is stationary and very small
I sometimes question this dude's takes. Lvl 90 is not just 12% increase, it's also survivability, knowing that she doesn't scale on HP and can easily get one shotted
I mean most support are "enough" at 70 I clear abyss while bringing lvl 70 kirara just because I like the no stagger on my bloom Neuv so its fair for him to say that Xianyun is "enough" but as always its better to 90 all the unit you want to use
damn imagine being stingy for character levels like i get it if you don't want to 90 someone cuz its too much books for little gain but 70A4 to 80A6 is big difference and not as expensive
@@domi8499 well yes i understand that not everyone like me who has abundance of resources and prefarmed gaming like its nothing but he's an older player too he can level up xianyun to show her true potential imo not needing to level up talents on her aside from her Q for healing which you can leave at level 8 or 9 is enough low invest to reach for the other point is he many times said even on his video that xianyun buff is all the team's damage and those teams don't generally have damage from sub DPS so her losing out on 13% damage is a big deal 13% is like going from 2-2p to 4P hunter on gaming
@@MojtaAS I believe only needing to level Xianyun to 70 (to gain access to her A4) is a testament to how good she is with low investment. If a unit is good with low investment, obviously they gonna be good to great with higher investment. Then again, Zajeff said he wanted to prioritize investing into Gaming and he would eventually level up Xianyun as well.
Imagine pulling for a niche character who relies almost entirely on their passive and healing and than choosing not to investt into character level. Make it make sense.
Lol, maybe zajef is an adult who dont like drama. Im a dolphin in genshin, maybe i have spend 3000-3500 usd in this game, and i dont really care about the reward, any more pull or free five star not gonna have any impact for my 3 years old account

Kazoo, Wanderer, Yelan, Xianyun. My exploration party, I finish everything I have to in a flash
Ummm she helps me beat the game 😅
Ah shibal p2w QoL againe
Well as xiao she's kind of helps him to beat up the game
Every time he's trying to do a rotation I can hear that sweaty seedrun gamer meme in the background with the keyboard spam
It's the first time I've seen Zajef actually have fun in this game since long time ago
To be fair he did make a vid about teams he finds fun
I dont think thats right
nah he 's just making videos about a game he hasn't found fun the entire time. like actually stfu
Xianyun might not be a must pull or a top tier meta unit.. but its been more than a year that I finally got a character that made me enjoy the game again due to the new mechanic she brought to the table..

Agreed
1:51 Neuvillette used Dragon Ascent! It's super effective!
The wild Aeonblight Drake fainted!
As someone with a ultra invested Xiao, seeing vape Xiao be this incredible hurts so much. 😂
Same as raiden with hyperbloom
I see this as win win, cuz I have two ways to play with him
Goodluck playing vv vape setups in Bennet circle 💀+less aoe and no faruzan cc
Me with a top 1% Hu Tao CA vape on Shimenawa:((((((((
This is why we need proper loadouts now more than ever
The Bennet onfield carry is pretty insane I ain't gonna lie. Also now i hope to see a good cryo offield applier subdps to reliably enable melting these things
I think i rewatched the pyro Xiao clip (on channel) at least 10 times, it's so satisfying (so is the Neuvillette one).
Let's cook up a vape Barbara plunge team then
He did it and it’s just a worst version of the Nevillette one
@@MmMm-mr6tf did he try CJP like with ayato or just jumps?
@@lean572 why would he do that? It will just ruin the Aura and steal vapes, with catalysts sprint cancelling is better
3:10 Really weird way to say "Levels aren't as good on her, but still no." She gains Base atk (as everyone does) and has an atk% ascension. It's a big deal for getting more out of said ascension talent.
yea but the healing increase she gets thru a minor bump in atk is pretty small she gets a big power spike with her lvl70 talent

am i the only one that is so impressed about how he is capable to calculate literally everything? or am i just bad at math
Another thing, can should I use SHIMENAWA with diluc, cloud retainer, furina and Bennett c6?
Yeah you can, but every time you skill will consume the energy if I’m not wrong, so just use one at the start of the rotation, but if you have crimson or maracheussee just use them as they’re better
i personally do, because diluc gets pyro infusion from bennet anyways. the 20% pyro dmg bonus for 4 seconds after bursting on diluc gets is not worth the time of the burst animation.
actually true, 2s for 4s out of 12s of bennet ult thats a half hugest atk buff spent already@@OfficialFo
...with furina, why not hunter? without furina....in the kaeya team ubsaq, yeah shimenawa.good.
@@OfficialFo the 20% Pyro Damage Bonus is for the whole duration of his Infusion, not for 4s
The 4s mentioned in the passive is Infusion duration extension from 8s to 12s
Still probably not worth using if you have a C6 Bennett.
How about c1 Xianyun? I got c0+c1 in a single ten pull, I was wondering if 150 ER were enough so I can give her Skyward Atlas
In a solo anemo team (e.g. xianyun in a hu tao team) that would be difficult. In a xiao team (xiao, faruzan, xianyun) it can work but more is always better.
Unless your rotations are 24s long you won't be able to use 2 skills every rotation, so her C1 is helpful evry now and then or if you started the next chamber with too little energy and so on, so I'd stick with oathsworn eye.

Me with a lvl 90/90 Xianyun 2h after getting her: Hmm interesting.
i was really worried about her energy and no er weapon/signature, but at 186% with a team that generates a decent amount of particles she feels really comfortable and im glad for that
The better question. Is lvl 70 enough for healers like Barbra & Yaoyao. I’m pretty bad about building my supports well 😅
His Xianyun is on 5 VV. Impressive
Do you think this team will be better on Hu tao Than her regular double hydro zhongli or double hydro with furina / jean ?
It's her best team now
@@josephobi3486 double hydro does has more damage output
its best if you dont have C1 Hu tao if you do its the same
@Unrealari You're completely wrong.
@@Unrealari it's still double hydro and furina does more dmg than xinqui
Yeah, but 90 will give her more HP so she doesn't die when monsters look at her funny. Or skill issue.
She's too squishy for me not to level her up, inside bennet's Q even a random hydro slime one shots her because of the vape ☠️
Lol
Try Navia -Zong-Furina-Xianyun , best plunge team
So should i put fav on xianyun or put a er sands?
fav if you have no oathsworn.
er sands is generally what you want to use with atk% weaps or ttds.
Neuvillete imersive build??? Sameone???
Does anyone knows if Xianyun works with Cyno?
12% is like a 5 star weapon right?
Ye
I mean that 12% on her buff not on your carry dmg
is that outro " i pulled a Qiqi if it was made on the 20s?
It's the liyue harbor music
Lv70 characters is the best lv to enjoy the game, not invest too much and be able to savor your battles a bit more.
how your are getting 25 ping?
Xianyun is such a good unit, she makes lots of forgettable characters to become fun to play
I wish Pyro Candace existed and we didn't have to play Circle Impact with Bennett's burst it's so annoying...
is xianyun good for eula
No :c because plunged attacks don't actually count for her ulti stacks.
Technically, you can use her because of her healing, but it won't be an upgrade comparing Xianyun to Jean, and usually people prefer other healers in Eula teams, such as Mika.
Yes it is one of her best team
Eula, Xianyun, Furina and C6 Bennett om
For pyro EULA? Yeah, she is the one who makes it viable. Normal EULA...it's the same as jean so....coin toss, c6 Mika is better but it's...c6 Mika.
my xianyun using signature weapon have permanent ultimate with 163 of ER in Hu Tao + Yelan (without fav) + Furina (whitout fav too) sooo... but that always depending of how many enemies do you kill or how many attacks do you made
Yeah her sig is rly good for er
We just need more bennette and furina-esque characters.

Why is pyro xiao better than anemo xiao 💀
Nice and where do you want to use this power?😂 floor 12? That's easy man even with solo neuvillette
zyox is really petty lmao
Why dont people do that with venti?

I sometimes question this dude's takes. Lvl 90 is not just 12% increase, it's also survivability, knowing that she doesn't scale on HP and can easily get one shotted
He already talked in the first impresion video, he keep her at 70 just enough for him not for every player
I mean you're not spending a lot of time on field with Xianyun, just tap e, plunge burst and swap out
if you're getting hit on a character that flies up into plunge into burst i-frames into swap-out, there's a problem

The main reason he has her at 90 is bc he wants to level his Gaming first. Likely to level her later, just doesn’t have the resin
Not for me
