  1. i think the comparison with xinyan isnt literally because shes going to be on par with dehya per say, (although i heard on some use cases, shes cutting it close to her lol) but will have the same problems as her. but on a five star.

  2. Hello, Xinyan main here, author of the Xinyan guide at Keqingmains. I have spent months and months doing very in depth Xinyan TC, and the numbers you provided for Xinyan are very wrong. Pyro Xinyan sheets at ~43k DPS with a Refinement 1 Serpent Spine. 35k is a massive understatement. Her Physical teams are around the same, ~43-45k with a R1 Spine. I have several Xinyan calcs I can share with you if you need to see the evidence. I am a fan of yours and watch all your content, but it is frustrating seeing someone with a much bigger channel than mine spread misinformation on something that I spent so much of my time working on, to dispel these exact type of misconceptions.

    Also, I don't understand why you are so negative about Xinyan's defensive capabilities. If you check my channel you will see I have played Xinyan both as a Shielder and as a DPS this Abyss and her Shield served me very well.

  3. Points for xinyan:
    – Mitigates 100% damage (shield)
    – has better pyro application
    – Don't need to stay a lot on field
    Points against xinyan:
    – Is a 4* (less stats)
    – Doesn't has 100% uptime shield

    Points for Dehya:
    – Is a 5*
    – Deals more damage
    – Can have 100% uptime with her ult
    – Heals herself
    – Looks cool
    Points against Dehya:
    – Low damage for a 5*
    – Needs ult for uptime mitigation
    – Does not heal allies
    – Stop mitigating when low life
    – Uses a lot of on field time

  4. What is the point of "doubling" team's hp? You still take damage and die. Lets say you have hypercarry with 18k hp. With dehya its 36k hp. Is it enough for full 12 floor run? Id rather pick xinyan. Activate shield with 10k hp durability 3 times, and boom you have 38k hp atleast. And normally you use shield atleast 6-7 times on the floor that means even more hp. I really dont get it

  5. I think Mihoyo is really racist. All the dark skinned characters are not good in the game. They even found a way to mess Xinyan up who's a Liyue character. Usually by their standards if they're representing China they're meta characters so that just fuels the argument they're racist with darker skins.

  6. When somebody tells me Xinyan is a bad character, I can't help but thinking they are either new to the game, or just an ignorant end-game player. As for me, Xinyan is a good character in terms of building her, exactly because her kit is all over the place. You can make her a shielder if you want – her shield can easily provide 100% uptime. Or you can try and squeeze as much burst damage as possible by capitalizing on her crit damage, because her C2 effectively gives her 100% crit chance. Moreover, she can even be a support for physical build since her E reduces physical resistance of the enemies. Unlike strictly DPS characters, for example HuTao, who have just one possible build, Xinyan can be as bad or as good as you make her. Not to mention that in the beginning of the game, her abilities are just what you need to fill multiple roles while waiting for your 5-stars. True, you won't be relying on her in the abyss, but come on, she is a 4-star unit, designed to carry you from the start till mid-game, where you get your 5-stars. You are just ignoring this part of the game, which is, mind you, the most exciting and pleasant time for every player.

  7. I should start taking screenshots of all the "Dehya is disappointing" titles, because these guys will later just pretend they said nothing, exactly like it was with Kokomi.

  8. It's kinda funny that Noelle waffle stomps both characters into the ground with her damage and defensive capability. With Noelle, I can dish out up to over 100k per swing and beat a lot of content with her. The fourth slot I can use to fill up with a shield breaker or off-field DPS like Yelan.

  9. this is the first video i dissagree with, firstly team DPS is hard to calculate and ud need gcsim for that, dehya is not there yet, also u didnt provide info on like what weapon did they use, constellation etc.

    i calced it with kqm standards and xinyan has around the same % of team dps as dehya, xinyan c6 r1 dehyas weapon and dehya c0 r1 single target, 9 9 9 talents
