Xingqiu – A Guide on Electro Keqing's Best Reaction Support | Genshin Impact



Here’s what you need to know about Xingqiu, and why he’s such a beast if combined with our Electro Queen.

Xingqiu is an amazing reaction support and one of the best 4 star units in the game. He fits into every comp, synergizes well with all other elements, and can be considered a must have if you want to play Keqing with 4TF (Thundering Fury).

In this video I go through how to play Xingqiu, and how to build him, including weapons, artifact sets, constellations and more, and explain what he does for Keqing that other supports can’t.

  1. This has probably been asked of you multiple times but how is Jade Cutter on Keqing?
    Does it outperform Aquila Favonia on phys build and/or Black Sword on electro build?

  3. Have C6 xinqiu and sac sword. Pulled a qiqi as well recently. I was having a hard time which one to level up first since I dont have alot of resources. But I think I might just pull the trigger and invest in XQ.

  4. i just saw this guide and realize i was doing the right thing (i don't watch build guides on them and just figure out everything) with my xingqiu and keqing tandem. they are my favorite pair. i have c6 xigqiu and HE IS AMAZING. i have 2 noblesse, 2 thunder soother with hydro damage cup, an off set hydro flower and sacrificial sword on him. keqing with 2 glad with electro damage cup, 2 thunder fury and 1 offset wanderers with lion's roar on her. this is good guide.

  5. Are you sure thunder soother set stays active during the electro charged reaction? A while back i farmed a pretty decent thunder soother set but I heard that during electro charge the 4pc thunder soother set doesn’t work. Plz let me know if this is true or not because this can free up a lot of really good artifacts for my other characters if I put keqing back on her thunder soother set

  6. So, do you recommend TS over TF in most circumstances? I don't like changing artifact sets so I tend to settle on one before I start upgrading them. I'm still torn between TF and TS and 2pc TF + 2pc glad, but no question Xingqui is excellent as support for her.

  7. @Alec John, Does swirl ruin Keqing's Thundersoother uptime? for example, does running Keqing, Xingqui, Venti, Fischl ruin her TS uptime? looking to find out bc Veridescent with venti/sucrose is almost too good to ignore on a team.
