Xilonen Overview

Her kit scales primarily with DEF, and her Elemental Skill is the heart of her utility, reducing enemy resistances based on the elemental types of her teammates. Her Elemental Burst adapts to the team's needs, offering either healing or damage amplification, making her a flexible addition to many lineups.

Talents Priority

When upgrading Xilonen's talents, focus should align with her role. Here's the recommended priority:

Talent

Priority

Elemental Skill: Yohual's Scratch

⭐⭐⭐⭐

Elemental Burst: Ocelotlicue Point!

⭐⭐⭐

Normal Attack: Ehecatl's Roar

⭐

Explain:

Xilonen's Elemental Skill, it's her most impactful Talent to prioritize. The Elemental Resistance decrease effect scales with its level, making it the cornerstone of her build.

Elemental Burst is secondary, needing upgrades only until your healing output meets the team's requirements.

Normal Attack, as a support character, does not rely on normal attacks to deal damage. Compared to the other two, it doesn't seem that important.

Xilonen's RES shred capability is exclusively tied to her Elemental Skill's level. To maximize her utility, focus on leveling Elemental skill as much as possible. Afterward, enhance her Elemental Burst to simultaneously boost damage and healing scalings. Lastly, level her Normal Attack, which primarily serve as supplementary damage for Xilonen herself.

C1: Sabbatical Phrase (⭐⭐⭐)

Xilonen's Nightsoul point and Phlogiston consumption in her Nightsoul's Blessing state is decreased by 30%, and her Nightsoul point time limit is extended by 45%.

C2: Chiucue Mix (⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐)

Xilonen's Geo Source Samples will always remain active. Additionally, when her Source Samples activate, all nearby party members will gain effects corresponding to the active Source Sample that matches their Elemental Type.

C3: Tonalpohualli's Loop(⭐⭐⭐⭐)

Increases the Level of Yohual's Scratch by 3. Maximum upgrade level is 15.

C4: Suchitl's Trance (⭐⭐⭐)

After Xilonen uses Yohual's Scratch, she will grant all nearby party members the Blooming Blessing effect for 15s. Characters with Blooming Blessing deal 65% of Xilonen's DEF as increased Normal, Charged, and Plunging Attack DMG.

Xilonen's Constellations and Weapon Pull Prioritization

Xilonen's exclusive weapon: Peak Patrol Song and his constellations upgrades all give him a definite boost. And for prioritizing which of the two to pull, here's what we recommend for Pull from different players.

  • Without Xilonen Player (prioritize pulling Xilonen )

*Players without xilonen, prioritize pull her from this banner. Not only her a strong support role, low cultivation cost, and Natlan exploration utility.

Even if a F2P player equips her with a Favonius Sword or Natlan's free forging weapon (available after the main story) for optimal results.

  • 0+0 (No Constellations, No Weapon )
  • 2+0 (Prioritize C2, No Weapon)

*The boost from C2 is far greater than that from exclusive weapon. Xilonen's C2 opens up her team options by allowing double geo teams to run her as a supportive unit, which isn't possible at C0. It also provides additional buffs to her party members based on their element, while still offering her RES shred.

  • 2+1 (C2, Prioritize Weapon)

*Xilonen's C2 has been provided significant buffs, but players without her Exclusive Weapon can prioritize pulling it. The Exclusive Weapon offers about a 10% improvement over the Favonius Sword and provides a more noticeable upgrade than C4.
