Xilonen is a versatile 5-star Geo Sword character in Genshin Impact, excelling as a Support and Healer with potential as a DPS in hypercarry setups. Her kit revolves around her Nightsoul's Blessing state, allowing her to skate across the battlefield, deal Geo damage, and provide team-wide buffs and healing. This guide covers her best build, including talents, artifacts, weapons, team compositions, constellations, and playstyle tips to maximize her potential.
★ Rarity: 5-star ★ Element: Geo ★ Weapon: Sword ★ Role: Support & Healer
Xilonen’s abilities focus on enhancing team performance through her Elemental Skill and Burst, making her a valuable asset in Geo-centric or elemental reaction teams. Her Nightsoul's Blessing state allows her to skate across the battlefield, dealing Geo damage and supporting allies with healing and buffs.
▍Xilonen Talent Priority
For talents, prioritize as follows:
Elemental Skill (Yohual's Scratch) > Elemental Burst (Ocelotlicue Point!) > Normal Attacks.
Xilonen’s Skill is her primary source of utility, providing Nightsoul's Blessing, buffs via Source Samples, and consistent Geo damage. Her Burst offers healing and additional damage, while her Normal Attacks are rarely used in her support role.
Upgrade Order:
Elemental Skill (Level 6–9)
Elemental Burst (Level 6–9)
Normal Attacks (Level 1–4, only for DPS builds)
▍Xilonen Best Artifacts & Stats
Best Artifact Set
Scroll of the Hero of Cinder City (4-piece)

▍Constellations or Signature weapon For Xilonen?
If you already have Xilonen, pull for C2 to make Xilonen a top-tier support. It’s more impactful than Peak Patrol Song for most players. Save for her banner rerun if near pity. Use 4-star weapons to stay F2P-friendly. Check out the following details:
Target C2: Pull for C2 to maximize Support Xilonen’s team buffs. Pair with Favonius Sword or Flute of Ezpitzal for budget builds.
If C1: C1 improves uptime and survivability. Save for C2 instead of the weapon.
If C2 Unattainable: Consider Peak Patrol Song for a reliable boost, but prioritize C2 first.
DPS Xilonen: Weapon is better unless aiming for C6, which is whale territory.
