In order to ascend and level Xiao you'll need the usual Vayuda Turquoise for Anemo characters, as well as Juvenile Jade, which you can get from the Primo Geovishap boss fight. (Image credit: miHoYo) Xiao Ascension materials Here are Xiao's abilities, passives, and Constellations: In terms of alternate artifacts, you could also replace Gladiator's Finale with Shiminenawa's Reminiscence, or add two pieces of Berskerker for that 12% crit rate increase, which would synergise well with Blackcliff Pole for pushing Xiao towards crits. This creates a good balance for Xiao in terms of both dealing physical damage, and Anemo-infused damage. This set is a good pick for Xiao since two pieces of Gladiator's Finale boosts attack by 18%, while two pieces of Viridescent Venerer boosts Anemo damage by 15%. Artifact: (2) Gladiator's Finale (2) Viridescent Venerer.This four-star polearm boosts crit damage as a sub stat, and increases attack by 12% up to three times whenever you defeat an opponent. The Primordial Jade Winged Spear is available on 2.4's epitome invocation banner, but if you have some Starglitter saved up, you can purchase the Blackcliff Pole through Paimon's Bargains. This makes the weapon well-suited to Xiao's speedy fighting style, as he racks up those stacks for that maximum bonus. If you manage to get all those stacks, damage is boosted by a further 12%. On a hit, this five-star polearm gets a 3.2% attack boost for six seconds, which stacks up to seven times, and can occur once every 0.3 seconds. In this Genshin Impact Xiao build guide, I'll go through the five-star's abilities, constellations, how you get him, as well as a build to make the most out of him. Xiao is a reliable damage-dealer and along with characters like Ayaka (opens in new tab), Beidou (opens in new tab), or Kazuha, has one of the most enjoyable playstyles in the game. When you throw in his Lemniscatic Wind Cycling skill that lets him dash through enemies or even mid-air, you have a character with even more mobility than Keqing (opens in new tab).

Seriously, his burst increases his jump distance and AoE damage, meaning he can spam plunging attacks into groups of enemies, or repeatedly activate the Swirl reaction, as he drops into another character's AoE burst.
