The developers of Genshin Impact are back with the overview of Version 5.1 Phase 1 banners and events. This new patch kicks off on October 9th and marks the arrival of Xilonen’s debut banner and the first rerun of Chiori.
On the battlefield, this new 5-star Geo Sword brings a plethora of buffs to her team. Xilonen is a support who can provide multi-Elemental RES reduction. Depending on the party composition, she can also deal damage on the field.
When Xilonen uses her Elemental Skill, she enters the Nightsoul’s Blessing state, which will decrease the corresponding Elemental RES of nearby opponents based on the Elemental types of your party. Additionally, while decreasing the Geo RES, her Normal and Plunging attacks deal increased damage.
Her Burst deals AoE Geo damage, and based on the party composition, will either continuously heal the active character, or deal two additional instances of damage.
