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.
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.
it's insane how Xiao's best team used to be double geo + bennet, and now he has so many ultra-specific buffers he may as well be Gojo being blessed with six eyes and limitless
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.
fantastic guide! anyways Diluc Ragnvindr is a playable Pyro character in Genshin Impact. Born into the affluent Ragnvindr Clan, Diluc is the current owner of the Dawn Winery and a nobleman of high esteem in Mondstadt. While a past incident caused him to split ways with the Knights of Favonius, he continues to protect Mondstadt in his own way.
You may wonder, who is Zy0x? Zy0x is the most sane genshin player that everyone fears, the way he laments, the way he conquered, the way he made Xiao the unstoppable… Zy0x the genshin god, tall, handsome, admirable, genuine, smart, trustworthy, loving, caring, notable, calm and collected 8ft7 king is not something that humanity wanted, BUT HUMANITY NEEDED. Only him, Zy0x can lead people their way through vermillion…
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
@@haisesasaki2955SAME. I just came back to genshin after a while and now i have to change my whole team because the zhongli bennett team is not meta anymore😢 i remember saving for zhongli and everything
Yes, yes, yes! I was hoping you would do an updated guide! I’ve waited a year for his rerun, finally got him, after pulling for Xianyun and C6 Faruzan (I got so lucky there…). He’s amazing, peak character design and fun play style. Finally a Xiao main!
I was LITERALLY just on here yesterday thinking "where is Zy0x's video on Xiao? surely he'll create one!? And here we have it :D I am gonna pull for him this evening, I'm just returning to Genshin, haven't played since Inazuma, nice to see you're still doing content!
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.
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.
our baby Xiao finally got the love he deserved. a dedicated artifacts set 2 lantern rites ago, a dedicated support (faruzan) and a made-up teaser a lantern rite ago, a non-dedicated support (furina) half a lantern rite ago and another dedicated support (xianyun) this lantern rite. he's now probably the most supported hypercarry in the game.
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
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.
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.
xdd >be f2p 3 crown Xiao main >leave in 2.3 >return 5.0, see that Xiao has gotten much stronger >poggers >main upgrades are a C6 4* and 2 5* characters >mfw cya in 2 years lmao
Me watching this guide while having c0 xianyun, c6 faruzan, c0 furina and furina's signature, xianyuns signature, xiaos signature but not even a single copy of xiao:
I haven't played Xiao that much since I got him last year but now that I have Xianyun and Furina (I already c6 Faruzan way back thanks to standard banner lol), I enjoy playing him again even with so-so mix of artifacts. Now I'm planning to invest on getting him a full MH set (Vermilion will be a nightmare to get given my strongbox luck 💀). Thanks for the pog guide!
I have been an avid watcher of your videos for almost an hour now. Even If i dont plant on totally building a specific character I watch your videos anyways because I just enjoy them. 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. Please for the love of kokomi RELEASE UR DILUC GUIDE. ᶦᵐ ᶦⁿ ʸᵒᵘʳ ʷᵃˡˡˢ
i got furina cause shes an "archon", xianyun cause shes hot, c6 faruzan because of xianyun. it just a no brainer move to pull for xiao at this point and im happy because of it
I couldn't find a Candace, collei, chongyun and gaming zy0x guide I was making a playlist of the genshin build guides and well I couldn't find some character guides on zy0x channel
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?
Oh my god Zyox. Not only did I know that you were already tall, humble, charismatic, funny, entertaining, and just... good overall, that you deserve this character, but now, I really can see... you getting rewarded for once, when every other time you've been unlucky
Man I got so lucky this patch. Not only did I win the 50/50 and get Xianyun early, I finally got C6 Faruzan. Thought this meant I'd for sure lose the 50/50 on Xiao BUT MY BOY CAME HOME. Ive been trying to get him for the past 3 banners T_T
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.
I never really played Xiao but I ended up having everything for him to breeze through this abyss. I had Furina, C6 Faruzan from pulling Xianyun, Jade Spear and also grinded a full set of Desert Pavilion for Wanderer, he destroyed everything this abyss.
I just noticed that my mid maréchaussée set outdamaged my 2/2 by over 10% while having more ER. The crit this brings when Xiao is paired with Xianyun, Faruzan and Furina is so important
I was building pity and got c6 Faruzan and xianyun and later got furina. I already had Xiao and I heard this team was amazing so I decided to build them all
The effectiveness of my Main accounts Xiao vs my alt account where i have highly invested in Xiao honestly makes quite the difference (i have Jade Wing and Homa, c6 faruzan, furina, xianyun) I still pulled him on my main account this last banner because I love him and i think hes fun. Will be working on his artifacts at the very least.
this xianyun and nahida banner was literally the most lucky banner for me, i got both xianyun, nahida, xinque(from the event), c2 gaming and c5 faruzan( i had c0 faruzan before the event) and ofc i have xiao too. and my max per plunge that i have got is 80k per plunge, and the average is between 40k to 50k. but unfortunately, i don't have furina or bennet.
Great Video, just started Genshin and I have been having a blast with him. Quick question, were you using nobless on xianyun for the damage demonstrations playing in the background ?
Honestly even before this update Xiao was one of my solid units that was good for a lot of abyss - not all of them, as mentioned here, but he did work for me if I was struggling... though part of that might've been Zhongli
Can you show us your Xiao build please? I have his best in slot team comp and a really solid build for him, but find that the Staff of Homa does WAY more damage. I wanted to see what your Xiao looks like so I can see why my R2 winged spear isn’t hitting as hard as the Homa
As a fellow lamenter who got Xiao, C6 Faruzan and Xianyun (no Furina tho) I can say that the damage is insane even tho i dont even have the optimal artifact and talent build for my supports. I simply slapped all my atk artifacts to Xianyun and Faruzan and my Xiao does 62k per plunge with my unbuilt bennet.
Is C6 really that necessary? :( I have Xiao C1, Xianyun C1, Benny, and C0 Faruzan as my team. I have no energy problems because I have Faruzan a lot of ER and Xiao and Xianyun make up for anything. Although, SO MANY people say C6 is like a necessary thing for your Xiao to do good. I’ll be pulling for Furina when her banner comes around, but it sucks to know that he won’t ever be ‘good or as good’ without a C6 Faruzan :C
You dont talk about c4 Albedo, he increase the plunge attack dmg by 30% while dealing lots of geo dmg. Paired with Zhongli you get the geo resonace bonus and the bonus from Zhongli itself.
I got Xiao on his rerun and for 2.5 years I've been using the 2pcs 2pcs with R3 PJWS. I'm putting my excess artifacts into Vermillion now for that 8% damage increase, but it gonna take a while because 3 of artifact have about 40% CV. I got 202% cdm and 96% cr.
I’m glad people are starting to use xiao more he’s so easy to use and is fun to use also i’m sure he’s making a diluc video it feels rude to comment that 😭 that’s just me tho
Wanted xianyun so bad, and faruzan being there was also such a huge boost. Love xiao, have had him since the first banner. Long story short, I now have a c10 noelle and a c1 mona.
I literally invested so much into this team. Won my first 50/50 for Xiao. Already had Furina, got C6 Furazan and Cloud…. Still no weapon. When they say high investment they mean it
i have missed out on so much in genshin :( i can’t pull for any fontaine characters. my whole team is from mondstadt 😭 why can’t genshin make banners for each region so we won’t wait for so long
