  1. Think it's also notable that while yes, xiao has a low skill floor and is very easy to pick up, his skill ceiling and room to optimize your gameplay of him is quite high. If you like to sweat and push a character to their limits by taking advantage of miscellaneous mechanics and techniques, xiao is worth considering imo.

  2. Good video, summarized pretty much what you need to know about Xiao. Still a solid pick for many, especially newcomers should pull Xiao as he will pull you through alot of content with ease. All his materials are in Liyue and can be farmed very early on unlike shenhe which requires you to play through a hefty amount of inazuma. Ganyu is a strong contender but as a Xiao main her gameplay is abit boring. She is safe to play though unlike Xiao who demands abit more focus.

  3. What about Sayu as a healer and battery for him? Sayu is basically budget Jean, yet people don't seem to play them together much. Jean has been avoiding me for over a year now.

  4. Agree as well, this time audio is not that good… leaving aside my opinion with narrator, audio quality is not as good as previous videos.

    Xiao has been fun on trials but not enough for me to pull for him… I hope I don't get to wait so much to C6 my Yun Jin u.u

  5. Maybe I'm weird but I got Xiao on his first banner and he carried me to 36* ever since. I have not changed artifacts on him since he got built with literally 0 Energy Recharge and I never ran an anemo battery with him and I always burst enough to get by. I'm not saying it's not optimal to run Jean or Sucrose alongside him cause it makes life easy, but I feel like the need for a battery is exaggerated. Xiao can beat up enemies with ease with basically any supports you give him

  6. warning to F2P players who're looking to 36* abyss:
    Without a 5* weapon, you're reliant on the very few supports that Xiao can really make use of. But even with one of his more popular comps (Zhongli, Bennett, Sucrose) and high-end artifacts (at least 2 months of artifact grind only for Xiao) + blackcliff he is barely able to clear current floor 12-3 in 90 seconds. Abyss does not give signs of getting any easier in the future, so if you are planning on building a fresh Xiao today, you might be disappointed a few months down the line…. unless a miracle happens and Xiao somehow gets a new dedicated artifact set.

  7. If using Sucrose as a battery for Xiao, it's important to raise her to C1 for the extra Elemental Skill charge, otherwise you're spending more time rounding-up multiple targets to fit into her skill's small circle.

  9. My xaio team Rn is Thoma Bennett Sucrose, I maintain Thoma's shield by throwing in an auto attack after every plunge which from all the guides I've seen on xaio is his optimal attack rotation anyway so isn't a dps loss and gives him something to swirl
