The arrival of Genshin Impact Version 5.1 introduces one of the most transformative Geo support and sub-DPS characters in the game’s history: Xilonen, the Nameforge of the Children of Echoes. Boasting unmatched elemental shred, high mobility roller-skate traversal across Natlan’s canyons, and powerful party healing, Xilonen fundamentally redefines Geo and rainbow team compositions.
Primary Role: Universal Elemental Res Shred Support / Healer / Off-Field Buffer
Key Feature: Nightsoul’s Blessing reduces enemy Pyro, Hydro, Cryo, and Electro RES by up to 36% simultaneously.
Xilonen Best Weapon Tier List: 5-Star & F2P Options
Xilonen scales primarily off DEF% and Energy Recharge:
| Weapon Name | Rarity | Primary Stat | Passive Synergy / Verdict |
|---|---|---|---|
| Peak Patrol Song | 5-Star | DEF% | Signature Weapon; grants massive party Elemental DMG bonus based on DEF |
| Favonius Sword | 4-Star | Energy Recharge | Best F2P Choice; generates white energy particles for seamless rotations |
| Flute of Ezpitzal | 4-Star (Craftable) | DEF% | Craftable Natlan sword; boosts DEF significantly after skill activation |
| Cinnabar Spindle | 4-Star (Event) | DEF% | Exceptional DEF scaling for veteran players who own the event weapon |
Best Artifact Sets & Stat Priorities
The premier artifact choice is the Scroll of the Hero of Cinder City 4-piece set. When Xilonen activates Nightsoul Burst and triggers an elemental reaction, the entire party receives a 40% Elemental DMG bonus for all reacting elements.
- Sands of Eon: DEF% (or Energy Recharge if below 160% ER)
- Goblet of Eonothem: DEF% (for pure healing/buffing) or Geo DMG Bonus
- Circlet of Logos: Healing Bonus (or DEF% / Crit Rate for Favonius procs)
Top Team Compositions: Natlan Nightsoul Synergies
Xilonen slots into virtually any team requiring resistance shred:
- Mualani Vaporize Core: Mualani, Xilonen, Xiangling, Furina
- Navia Geo Resonating Team: Navia, Xilonen, Bennett, Xiangling
- Neuvillette Hypercarry: Neuvillette, Furina, Xilonen, Kazuha

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
Does Xilonen replace Kazuha in team comps?
Xilonen complements Kazuha rather than replacing him. In many teams, running both Xilonen (shredding 36% RES + 40% DMG) and Kazuha (40% VV shred + grouping) creates unprecedented damage amplification.
How much DEF does Xilonen need?
Target at least 3,000 DEF to maximize her healing output and Peak Patrol Song stat scaling.
Can Xilonen roller-skate across water and lava in Natlan?
Yes! Her Nightsoul state allows high-speed movement across water, cliffs, and molten lava fields in Natlan.
