@@MomoMMDs That's interesting to hear but maybe they did it for another reason? I've heard lots of time that Xiangling was thought of as a bad character for a while. An I wrong?
i dont think they knew what they were making... she is way stronger than diluc, and she is even stronger than hu tao non purely single target scenario... people are saying that there is powercreep in this game... but so far no character ever released has powercrept xiangling (that is if i ignore the speedrunning comunity)
xiangling is probably one of the most broken unintended meta, that mihoyo also free ride when they kinda like, "oh she is broken lets create a story about guoba god"
honestly the best things about xiangling is that she unlock all kind of comp for your favorite characters simply because how versatile she is. We got melt Rosaria, melt Ganyu, National, Overload Lisa, Sukokomon (my fav),..... the potential is literally limitless
It’s pretty interesting to see how the perception of Xiangling has changed from the release of the game to now. If all 5 stars are at c0, C4 Xiangling might be the 2nd best dps in the game or at least has a very strong argument for it
Xiangling had high praise during release, so was fischl actually then she dropped off and then recognition again when the og national team got discovered by cn players
I mean many 4*s are a very good or should I say a much better alternative than most 5* can do in the abyss. like chongyun, xinqui, beidou, etc. they just need to be built and have a synergy on the lineup for them to shine
On release of the game almost everyone thought that the “right way” to play the game was just upgrade a Main DPs like Diluc, Klee or Xiao and win the game. Couldn’t be more wrong, a lot of people still build only a main DPs and have no subdps or supports fully build. Its kind a sad sometimes because a huge part of the community still have the same wrong idea for the first patch and this misunderstanding stick hard on their minds even if they hear 100x times lmao 😂
best guide on guoba yet. i also love his pet xiangling!!! she's so cute and i loved her during the past moon chaser event anyways xiangling is best girl and i have never gotten her off my team since i got her from abyss
Nice guide! Xiangling is hopelessly busted, especially with the Catch and an Emblem set. Pressing Q and watch everything around her immediately roast is so satisfying.
I've been struggling with Abyss because of the electro rift hounds, using a taser comp. Came across this vid and figured to give national team a try even though it has no electro. Suddenly finished it in one go, thanks so much! Xiangling is really amazing, even when she's not fully build.
Absolutely love xiangling and her kit, she's been my main/sub dps since the start and i love that she had a huge buff recently! Also loved the stove god storyline during the event
Just built my C6 Xiangling today after months of forgetting. Build her exactly like you recommended and she is definitely punching way above her 4 star rating. Thanks for the tips!
I just finished watching your Eula guide because I got her weapon just recently! Your videos are so well made I can't help but keep on coming back to your channel. Please keep this up! Also will you do a guide for Rosaria??
I believe Sevy follows the current banner for which characters to create guides for. I remember seeing Ning, Chongyun and Yanfei back to back guides. They were the 4* on Childe’s most recent banner.
Love your voice and presentation all these other Genshin RUclipsrs have no chill and keep bombarding you with information and stats. Subbed 💖👍 keep it up.
Xiangling was my main char simply because i like her. Being her an excellent off-field dps was a jackpot. I was using her though as physical DPS during early game.
This is the first in-depth explanation for Xianglings mechanics I've found on YT that thoroughly explains the nuance of her kit. Super well done and as a newer player, Thank You.
its crazy. xiangling benefits from absolutely every spear in the game. (even the physical dmg ones, at least before. people used to run xiangling with the crescent pike in the early days)
I've mained xiangling ever since I started playing some 5 months ago and only just yesterday after while getting Itto I was able to get her to C4. I run the national team with Kazuha and Emblem + Catch and she's just wonderful to play. Honestly my favorite character. Amazing guide really love how f2p and user friendly it is ❤
You just stated my whole team XD Except mine is: Dps Sucrose (C0) Burst Dps Xiangling (C2) Support healer Diona (C1) Support (mostly)healer Bennett (C1) (C6 Sucrose, C6 Xiangling and C2 Diona when?)
Its actually insane... i am a veteran myself - playing the game since release and i am on top of the edge - but your videos will still be shared by me for the most out of box toturials i know - GG WP
Sure, it’s not the best, but I have found that my full Elemental mastery Build with Xiangling works really well with Raiden and Jean. Raiden is there to add electro with her skill no matter who Guoba hits and Jean is there to use her hold skill to keep enemies from flying away from the overloaded reaction. So it goes, raiden skill, drop guoba, suck up guoba and enemies together, hold them until guoba runs out, then shoot them into the sky for that anemo skill damage and fall damage afterwards. That’s usually enough to take care of a lot of enemies. The only difference with pyronado and guoba comes with the fact that pyronado works best with raidens burst afterward. They deal about the same damage, but the burst comba does it more often because Raidens burst is constantly applying electro. With this, I do a consistent 11k every guoba attack in pyro damage alone. Combined with raidens electro damage from her skill, I do about 14k every guoba attack. That enough for me
Both of my xiangling and baal have the emblem of severed fate set on them. I equip xiangling with the catch, while baal with the prototype starglitter. U can tell how much I love our 5 star chef
THANK YOU FOR ALL YOUR BUILD VIDEOS. THIS IS HELPING ME. ( LOW SPENDER) PLAYER WHO PROBABLY SPENDS 20 -40$ A MONTH YOUR INFORMATION REALLY HELPS ME PRIORITIZE MY BUILDS. I WISH MORE PEOPLE FOLLOWED YOUR PAGE YOUR INFORMATION IS SPOT ON
I know its a hot take but for me xiangling is the strongest DPS in the game by far especially cause i have tartagila , those 2 destroy evrey abyss easily
I find it amusing when I remember being bullied by Diluc players during the first Coop event Genshin had just because I was using Xiangling 😂 If elemental crucible gets a rerun, I'm using her again for sure 🤗
Watching this now a year later, I don't think 150-180% will be enough ER for her. My XL us at 220% ER on a mono Pyro lyney team comprised of her, lyney, benett, and layla. To be able to burst comfortably, I need abyss buff that pushes me to 240%+ so without it, that's the baseline I'd need to happily burst every rotation.
Also, thank you for this. I have a c6 xiangling but i havent used her as much because i normally use perma freeze ayaka and kazuha. Looking forward in building Xiangling. I got my Yanfei buikd from you as well :)
Thanks for the updated guide I was looking foward to properly build my Xiangling, she is so fine she does well regardless but now its my time to spoil her (and hopefully pull some of her cons)
They say that the pyronado is a spinning hot wok. 😁 Hi sevy, thanks a lot for all this latest guide. Hope to see all the 4star(and 5star) guide on your content. Very helpful. 👍
She was one of the characters that carried me when I was still in low AR. I used to pair her with Lisa, Kaeya, Xingqiu and even with Dendro Traveler (for burning or burgeon reaction, of course trying to stack a lot of EM on her lol). Back then I didn't have good artifacts to sustain her ER so I used Gouba regularly, and contradict to how many players complain, Gouba was not that bad. Even at high AR now I still have a habit of dropping Gouba first before using her Burst XD
There is one thing about building her that I saw on the KeqingMains guide, but nowhere else, so I wonder if it's true. The Kitain Cross Spear reduces her ER requirement and at R5 it reduces it so much you don't need it anymore. Then you can just focus on farming Crimson Witch and getting crit sub-stats.
"Her best set is 4pc Emblem" My account (after using an artifact optimizer): "You're gonna use your god roll 2pc shimenawa/2pc noblesse with ur god roll off piece ocean-hued clam flower, and you're gonna like it!"
@@bletwort2920 Early to mid game you it isn't worth the resin to farm artifacts so you mostly work with what you have. Just leveling a three star feather to 12 will pretty much double the attack on an AR20 character. In those cases the set bonus can be worth prioritizing. Weapon level and talents are the priority till AR45. Ideally you will have a stock pile of talent books, mora and exp books ready by AR45 so you can then switch the focus to artifacts. Yes stats still matter early to mid game but most of your scaling at that point is coming from your weapon and talents.
@@bletwort2920 I'm not saying throw a def sands on your Hu Tao or something. You get more than enough artifacts from bosses and chests to carry you through to AR45. The only set you could make an arguement for farming early is a 4* set of VV for an anemo character. I don't think you understand how fast it is to get to AR45. It isn't like the launch of the game. There are so many more quests, chests, and way to get AR exp now that you can speedrun it in less than a week and casually reach it in under a month. You also aren't going to need artifacts for 2 full teams till then anyway. Just a decent set for your dps, half decent for sub-dps. A lot of characters can get by just fine with minimal artifacts till then. Also it needs to be said that outside of abyss this is a very easy game designed for a casual mobile audience.
@@bletwort2920 If you really want to speedrun it, with the interactive map you can hit AR35 in about 20-25 hours of gameplay. AR45 is going to take longer but a month isn't that long. Things aren't like they were at launch where you had to rely on dailies and resin to grind up early game AR. There are close to twice the non-timegated ways to get AR exp. Regardless. You don't need artifact sets from domains before you are able to grind 5*s. You can get Berserkers, Exile and Instructors from every boss in the game, chests, and rarely from elite overworld enemies. 2pc Berserkers/ 2pc either of the other two works well enough for dps and subdps characters. 2pc Exile/ 2pc Instructors or 4pc of either is fine for supports. ER is more of a concern than crit early game since hitting a reasonable crit ratio is very hard with 4* artifacts. At least for any burst dependent character (which is more than half the roster). If you really want to farm artifacts early. The earliest that makes any sense is AR40 since you at least have a chance at 5*s then. Even at AR40 though it is kind of a waste of resin. Even at AR45 you should probably live in the emblem/shiminawa domain for a month or two as it is by far the most resin efficient domain (both sets are good if not BiS for most of the roster).
Agreed. I hit AR45 in less than a month. And i never cared about artifacts until then either. All my teams had random level 1-8 artifacts but I did fine. Talents and weapons were the focus mostly then. Agreed fights would take longer but it was very doable
Xiangling carried me. I had underleveled characters and couldn't clear the high level domains... Raiden National Carried me and I can do it with my xiangling level 79, xingqiu level 60 unacnesnded, and the rest of my characters level 69! Xiangling is really broken!
I crowned her Q. And with 200 ER and EOS set she is super effective. My ratio is decent at 50:150 and i use catch which is brilliant. Her numbers are not super high but they are consistent.
Remember when those abyss had ice claws and staminan drain + cryo fatui. I wished I built Xiangling before. Now I have her with every polearm, EoSF with 230ER
My Xiangling with godly Emblem set is ticking 40k+ with pyronado every single hit lol it is demolishing everything. Thank god for the free The Catch which really boosts her ER stats
1:40 clarification and An interesting fact about Xiangling snapshot mechanic: She snapshots any and all atk% buff in her burst so even if the buff only lasts for a second when her burst is activated the scaling on the atk will stay until the duration ends However, she doesn't snapshot any damage bonus except for her own C6, as in, she doesn't benefit from her own C6 (15% pyro damage bonus). This has been tested and documented, just search for C5 VS C6 Xiangling. Her burst damage doesn't change from C5 to C6 despite the damage bonus should apply to All characters, yet when tested with other sources of damage bonus (sucrose C6, Geo resonance, Raiden E, etc) her damage changes according to the buff even after the burst started and goes up and then back down once the buff ended even before her burst duration ended. She does however receive a damage buff on Guoba from her C6 which is really weird. Afaik this has been the case since the game release and hasn't been fixed so I guess it was intentional by the dev which makes no sense but whatever consistency was never HYV's strong point. Anyway, this should be true to any other character that snapshot such as Fischl, Beidou, Ganyu, etc For other stat such as EM and Crit, they cannot be snapshotted after an old update, IIRC she used to be able to snapshot EM which is OP. As usual Crit and any other stat don't snapshot. Hope that helps cuz this is something I always wonder about Xiangling build and rotation as the snapshot mechanic is rather confusing with all of the inconsistency and stuff. For example, in the near future, we might get a certain character that could buff the on-field character with a damage bonus that constantly changes (increase with time) and you might wonder where to put XL in the rotation and the answer is, yea the same as usual since she doesn't benefit from the buff sadly.
I want to share my xangling build and team - I actually use her for sub dps for my Raiden National Team which includes : Raiden Shogun, Xingqiu, Xangling and Bennet.... Where my Xangling is build accordingly: 4 pcs Emblem of Severed Fate Overall Stats : ER : 208.4% CR : 53% CD : 134% EM : 287 Sands : Energy recharge, Crit rate, Crit Dmg Goblet : Attack % with CR, CD Circlet : Crit Rate with CD, and ER Weapon : Dragons Bane R2 Cons : C4 Talents : Crown Burst, lvl 4 E, lvl 1 Basic attacks I hope I will improve this build further but with this build she deals great off field dmg with Xingqiu and Raiden Being the Main Dps and Battery
Thanks to Deathmatch I can use a crit dmg circlet. She and Ajax with Bennett and Sugar are basically my third team I prepared for Spyral Abyss if Eula/Raiden or Yoimya/XQ aren't doing it
i pair xiang ling with hu tao, and noelle, with the fourth slot open for beidou, xinqiu, yoa yoa, collei, or rosaria depending on the situation as needed, i find this pairing to be very forgiving and really easy to get reactions going, i activate noelle's shield pop all of xiang lings abilities, and then finish with hu taos skill and burst, and begin the reaction process again starting with whatever the fourth characters element is,
I really only use her for raiden national. Thats about it. Didnt want to invest too much into her. Got her ult to 11 talents since shes c6 and guoba to talent 6. Ult is the only thing one should be investing in.

When I saw her dealing 28k I was like "even I can deal it"
And then I realized it was a non crit

That's already a crit, but it's non reaction. 58k hit after that is vape (+vv set from kazuha I think)

@@bletwort2920 If you really want to speedrun it, with the interactive map you can hit AR35 in about 20-25 hours of gameplay. AR45 is going to take longer but a month isn't that long. Things aren't like they were at launch where you had to rely on dailies and resin to grind up early game AR. There are close to twice the non-timegated ways to get AR exp.
Regardless. You don't need artifact sets from domains before you are able to grind 5*s. You can get Berserkers, Exile and Instructors from every boss in the game, chests, and rarely from elite overworld enemies. 2pc Berserkers/ 2pc either of the other two works well enough for dps and subdps characters. 2pc Exile/ 2pc Instructors or 4pc of either is fine for supports. ER is more of a concern than crit early game since hitting a reasonable crit ratio is very hard with 4* artifacts. At least for any burst dependent character (which is more than half the roster).
If you really want to farm artifacts early. The earliest that makes any sense is AR40 since you at least have a chance at 5*s then. Even at AR40 though it is kind of a waste of resin.
Even at AR45 you should probably live in the emblem/shiminawa domain for a month or two as it is by far the most resin efficient domain (both sets are good if not BiS for most of the roster).
Agreed. I hit AR45 in less than a month. And i never cared about artifacts until then either. All my teams had random level 1-8 artifacts but I did fine. Talents and weapons were the focus mostly then. Agreed fights would take longer but it was very doable
Xiangling really gave the whole 'Polearm Impact' message
Really great explanation video 👍👍👍
Such amazing indepth guide!
Xiangling carried me. I had underleveled characters and couldn't clear the high level domains... Raiden National Carried me and I can do it with my xiangling level 79, xingqiu level 60 unacnesnded, and the rest of my characters level 69! Xiangling is really broken!
Everytime I pick Xiangling I cant help but imagine in my head the Tekken selection screen guy saying 'Xiiiaangliing'
I crowned her Q. And with 200 ER and EOS set she is super effective. My ratio is decent at 50:150 and i use catch which is brilliant. Her numbers are not super high but they are consistent.
I was planning to build Xiangling but then decided not to. BUT THEN THIS GOT RECOMMENDED so I think it really is a sign to get started
"Hi everyone it´s sevy"
One of the most wholesome thing u gonna listen here on the internet
PS: Keep on the good work
Remember when those abyss had ice claws and staminan drain + cryo fatui. I wished I built Xiangling before. Now I have her with every polearm, EoSF with 230ER
I just pulled Xiangling on standard! I’m so excited
very well made. TY
Thanks! I am newish and have been building her!
Thx for the guide , i am waiting for your Arataki Itto guide and best weapon in the next days hehe
My Xiangling with godly Emblem set is ticking 40k+ with pyronado every single hit lol it is demolishing everything. Thank god for the free The Catch which really boosts her ER stats
I have her at C6 already and I'm so happy. She was my main fire before I got Yoimiya and Hu Tao. I am planning to rebuild her to go with my Kokomi
Great vid! Can't wait for the Barbara guide. I wanna know if Barbara taser comps are any good.
finally finished my emblem set with a pyro goblet. This little cook is the truth.
It is Constellation, not Constellations, a group of stars is a constellation. When they say C1 or C3, it means Constellation LV 1 or 3.
You're right. That said, we should just call them stars then 🤣
I got r3 wavebreakers fin luckily. Can't wait to build her. Just need to upgrade talents.
Wait what? Where were you 10 months ago? Love your voice btw! Great video !
1:40 clarification and An interesting fact about Xiangling snapshot mechanic:
She snapshots any and all atk% buff in her burst so even if the buff only lasts for a second when her burst is activated the scaling on the atk will stay until the duration ends
However, she doesn't snapshot any damage bonus except for her own C6, as in, she doesn't benefit from her own C6 (15% pyro damage bonus). This has been tested and documented, just search for C5 VS C6 Xiangling. Her burst damage doesn't change from C5 to C6 despite the damage bonus should apply to All characters, yet when tested with other sources of damage bonus (sucrose C6, Geo resonance, Raiden E, etc) her damage changes according to the buff even after the burst started and goes up and then back down once the buff ended even before her burst duration ended. She does however receive a damage buff on Guoba from her C6 which is really weird. Afaik this has been the case since the game release and hasn't been fixed so I guess it was intentional by the dev which makes no sense but whatever consistency was never HYV's strong point. Anyway, this should be true to any other character that snapshot such as Fischl, Beidou, Ganyu, etc
For other stat such as EM and Crit, they cannot be snapshotted after an old update, IIRC she used to be able to snapshot EM which is OP. As usual Crit and any other stat don't snapshot.
Hope that helps cuz this is something I always wonder about Xiangling build and rotation as the snapshot mechanic is rather confusing with all of the inconsistency and stuff. For example, in the near future, we might get a certain character that could buff the on-field character with a damage bonus that constantly changes (increase with time) and you might wonder where to put XL in the rotation and the answer is, yea the same as usual since she doesn't benefit from the buff sadly.
I want to share my xangling build and team -
I actually use her for sub dps for my Raiden National Team which includes : Raiden Shogun, Xingqiu, Xangling and Bennet....
Where my Xangling is build accordingly:
4 pcs Emblem of Severed Fate
Overall Stats :
ER : 208.4%
CR : 53%
CD : 134%
EM : 287
Sands : Energy recharge, Crit rate, Crit Dmg
Goblet : Attack % with CR, CD
Circlet : Crit Rate with CD, and ER
Weapon : Dragons Bane R2
Cons : C4
Talents : Crown Burst, lvl 4 E, lvl 1 Basic attacks
I hope I will improve this build further but with this build she deals great off field dmg with Xingqiu and Raiden Being the Main Dps and Battery
I have her in a team with Eula, Jean and Sucrose (my only hydro character is Barbara so it's been painful to make a team with her)
I have her at C6 and crowned the EM but i didn’t use her much
Thanks to Deathmatch I can use a crit dmg circlet. She and Ajax with Bennett and Sugar are basically my third team I prepared for Spyral Abyss if Eula/Raiden or Yoimya/XQ aren't doing it
My gouba drals around 6-16k damage per fire breathe and xiangling pyronafo and gouba are both ready to be crowned.
i pair xiang ling with hu tao, and noelle, with the fourth slot open for beidou, xinqiu, yoa yoa, collei, or rosaria depending on the situation as needed, i find this pairing to be very forgiving and really easy to get reactions going, i activate noelle's shield pop all of xiang lings abilities, and then finish with hu taos skill and burst, and begin the reaction process again starting with whatever the fourth characters element is,
At 6:25 mark didn’t you show the Pyro damage was 61% after using the burst? Which means you get the 15% C6 stat buff? Or am I crazy
I have tried so hard to build my xiangling. But her max dmg output even with bennet is 10k inconsistently. Makes me want to guve up this game
Yeah I didn't understand what was happening when my Xiangling hit 80k
I really only use her for raiden national. Thats about it. Didnt want to invest too much into her. Got her ult to 11 talents since shes c6 and guoba to talent 6. Ult is the only thing one should be investing in.
*Listen, Xiangling, you are here in hells kitchen, and your slime chicken is f***ing dry.*
Already have her from the beginning banner and will get c1 from the dungeon
Why does it seem like every patch someone updates their Xiangling guide.
