XIAO IS BACK. LAMENT. LET ME KNOW WHAT YOU THINK OF THIS TYPE OF VIDEO. I tried to combine a review video and a build video in one, covering what changed and how to build him & his teams, talking about why he is strong now & how to get the most value out of his build, without repeating the basics covered in my previous Xiao Guide (reference that for talent & combo advice). Hope you enjoyed! Oh and... Diluc Complete Guide is coming... soon...

A 3rd Xiao guide before updated Diluc guide is crazy 🗿

What a very honest, tall, charismatic streamer. Surely he doesn't say "Mods, find his location, then-don't dox them, don't do that. Then go there, take their pillow right, remove the pillow case, put on a new one that's a bit less comfy and then make sure it's warm. Put a heater under the pillow, integrated into the pillow case, so that the pillow is always warmon both sides. Then take their phone charger, tangle it a little to where it only charges at a specific angle. Then plug that back into the wall in a loose way where it's gonna fall out when they plug their phone in and then they're gonna have to be inconvenienced because their phone won't actually work anymore, it won't charge. They think it'll charge but it won't charge properly, so their alarm won't go off next morning, they're gonna miss their flight, miss their ride to work, their boss is gonna be like "listen here, this is the SIXTH TIME you've been late". Fired, lose their job, all because-I don't remember what their message was, but they chose to make a joke." When somebody jokes about them.

Bros gonna make a 7th Xiao guide before the Gaming guide

it's insane how Xiao's best team used to be double geo + bennet, and now he has so many ultra-specific buffers he may as well be Gojo being blessed with six eyes and limitless

Great Xiao guide mr Zy0x, but have u ever considered to Release intense flames to knock back nearby opponents, dealing Pyro DMG. The flames then converge into the weapon, summoning a Phoenix that flies forward and deals massive Pyro DMG to all opponents in its path. The Phoenix explodes upon reaching its destination, causing a large amount of AoE Pyro DMG. The searing flames that run down his blade cause it to be infused with Pyro.

You may wonder, who is Zy0x? Zy0x is the most sane genshin player that everyone fears, the way he laments, the way he conquered, the way he made Xiao the unstoppable… Zy0x the genshin god, tall, handsome, admirable, genuine, smart, trustworthy, loving, caring, notable, calm and collected 8ft7 king is not something that humanity wanted, BUT HUMANITY NEEDED. Only him, Zy0x can lead people their way through vermillion…

fantastic guide! anyways Diluc Ragnvindr is a playable Pyro character in Genshin Impact. Born into the affluent Ragnvindr Clan, Diluc is the current owner of the Dawn Winery and a nobleman of high esteem in Mondstadt. While a past incident caused him to split ways with the Knights of Favonius, he continues to protect Mondstadt in his own way.

That’s a funny lookin Diluc guide

Last year, on your previous Xiao guide, I commented that I would probably never pull Xiao for myself due to struggling to plunge properly on mobile, but still enjoyed getting to witness your passion and love for him, as he is one of my favourite characters in the entire game. One year later, I have now pulled Xiao and he is level 90 with 10/9/9 talents (working towards triple crown), and I have shocked myself with how much I enjoy his playstyle now that I've managed to get used to it. I unfortunately could not afford Xianyun this year (pulled nearly 150 times on her banner coping) but she is now top of my priority list for reruns and I managed to c6 my Faruzan. The moral of the story is to never give up on your dreams because it is possible for even a mobile gamer stuck on 300 ping to lament with tallest of them

Maybe the real diluc was the -edging session- friends we made along the way.

As a xiao main it feels so good how his potential had increased with new characters/updates

Yes, yes, yes! I was hoping you would do an updated guide! I’ve waited a year for his rerun, finally got him, after pulling for Xianyun and C6 Faruzan (I got so lucky there…). He’s amazing, peak character design and fun play style. Finally a Xiao main!

I love this relaxed, calm and completely normal content creator. I hope we can also get Diluc guide soon :)

the best thing that's come out of it is him escaping circle impact prison

by the time he dies there’s going to be at least like 10 more xiao guides

Diluc guide just around the corner guys

STILL WAITING FOR THE DILUC GUIDE

I was LITERALLY just on here yesterday thinking "where is Zy0x's video on Xiao? surely he'll create one!? And here we have it :D I am gonna pull for him this evening, I'm just returning to Genshin, haven't played since Inazuma, nice to see you're still doing content!

This diluc guide is so fire

I respect the way you present your videos. There so professional, and you speak highly. I'll probably stop in for one of your streams!!!

YOU KNOW WHAT ELSE IS META NOW? A GAMING GUIDE

:) Thanks for this. I've moved him to my main overworld team. Got c6 Garming, pulling for C6 Faruzan. (Now I need to unlock 3 sets of boss materials.)

YEAHH I BEEN WAITING FOR THIS

Zy0x and Xiao? What a peculiar combo Do sure hope this content creator ain't crazy with Xiao or anything

4th Xiao guide before a single Gaming guide is a violation 💀

Zy0x the goat i love you so much you deserve all the praise you get keep up the good work man i love youre videos

was just referring to ur previous guide, ty for the update!

3:06 fried-egg-revived xianyun is crazy

You just know how long Zy0x waited to make this video after 150k went towards vermillion. Truly the lament ever

I was waiting for your Xiao's guide , thx bro 😊

Man I have been waiting for this guide since a long time 😊

I pulled Xianyun for Xiao and while pulling on the weapon banner a few patches back I got Primodial Jade Winged Spear. I figured since I was getting Xianyun anyway and I got lucky and got C6 Faruzan in the process I should maybe go for Xiao too since I don't have an Anemo main dps at the moment (no wanderer) and I already had his signature and no one to use it on. Very glad I got him! Strongboxing Vermillion has been cringe but I got a really good feather and flower and...serviceable sands and circlet. I have an insane 42 CV off set anemo goblet from waaaay back when though that I have not been able to use until now though and that's really tying his build together. Loving his playstyle so far, getting the hang of NA/Dash canceling his plunges so I can get more of them in. I'm really good at dash canceling with Diluc but not so good with Xiao yet, but that comes with practice. Very fun character and very glad I have him now. Furina has really opened up a lot of teams for me and I'm very glad I invested in her.

Xiao is my favorite character in Genshin, but I had basically stopped using him a long time ago because my second team was never strong enough to make up for his shortcomings. But thanks to Xianyun and finally C6 on Faruzan, Xiao is back, baby. It is so nice to play him and not feel like I'm handicapping myself.

I haven't played Xiao that much since I got him last year but now that I have Xianyun and Furina (I already c6 Faruzan way back thanks to standard banner lol), I enjoy playing him again even with so-so mix of artifacts. Now I'm planning to invest on getting him a full MH set (Vermilion will be a nightmare to get given my strongbox luck 💀). Thanks for the pog guide!

Thanks for the Faruzan guide Mr Socks! Keep up the good work!

Finally completed my Xiao Team recently with the last 2 Cons for Faruzan and he is doing actually fucking solid. But my problem is, I use him with Bennett (+ Xianyun ofc) instead of Furina because I just don’t like her but the damage buffs compared to Benny are worth it no? Maybe I should pull for her next rerun idkkkk

Where's the Gaming and updated Yae Miko guide mr. socks 🤨

Thanks for the hard work

I've been waiting for this. 👍

it feels weird hearing talking normal instead of moaning every 5 seconds

This Diluc guide is crazy

this was needed. thanks a lot.

I'll give my Xiao's artifacts to diluc until zyox releases updated diluc guide with xianyun ofc.

bro said "Ultimate" 😭

thank you for posting :) i finally got c6 xiao (im f2p) and im excited to maximize his potential

Great Video, just started Genshin and I have been having a blast with him. Quick question, were you using nobless on xianyun for the damage demonstrations playing in the background ?

God damn ! I was rewatching the previous build yesterday since I got his C6 and was wondering if I should pull for Xianyun next time

thanks for this. finally found a use for my forgotten xiao

Bro! I did a single pull while watching your video and got him! Thank you Mr. Zy0x!

I’m happy my Glorious king’s guide got updated. This is what I needed 🙏🏾

Just got xiao, thanks so much for this 🙏

our baby Xiao finally got the love he deserved. a dedicated artifacts set 2 lantern rites ago, a dedicated support (faruzan) and a made-up teaser a lantern rite ago, a non-dedicated support (furina) half a lantern rite ago and another dedicated support (xianyun) this lantern rite. he's now probably the most supported hypercarry in the game.

what a day it is to be a xiao main

great video

Xiao was absolutely cracked on first floors in the abyss allowing me to have so much time left for 2nd floor.

thank you i needed more xiao guides (fr)

loved the vid, Xiao main now here, are we getting gaming guide soon?

hey zyox what are your thoughts on ballad of fjords vs high refinement dragons bane for hutao? was thinking of buying the bp but wasnt sure if getting this weapon was worth it compared to smth like wolf fang

Oh! Nice video, I just build pity on Xiao banner and accidentally got him in 20 pulls with this team comp I got all the piece without knowing

I have been an avid watcher of your videos for almost an hour now. Even If i dont plant on totally building a specific character I watch your videos anyways because I just enjoy them. I have been playing genshin impact close to 2& 1/2 tears now and have loved diluc from the beginning. From the day that I got him 10/09/2021 I have wanted to make the best diluc out there. I wanted to be the #1 Diluc main from the beginning akin to the way Jake Tuonto claimed to be the #1 Jean main. I think I have a good Diluc but I am never able to tell because Im not the math guy or the guide maker here. I have C6 Bennet, I have Kazuha, I have furina and kokomi and C6 Xinqiu and Yelan. Please for the love of kokomi RELEASE UR DILUC GUIDE. ᶦᵐ ᶦⁿ ʸᵒᵘʳ ʷᵃˡˡˢ

What an excellent Xiao guide, I'll send it to my buddy Zy0x so he can learn a thing or two

Oh one thing to note about Zhongli, he does offer Anemo Shred with his shield. So you get shields and anemo shred from him. Jean of course works well but would need C4 for her shred, still a nice healer. That is of course if you don't have Faruzan, like myself. Just base Zhongli is quite a good combo to use and not to expensive to get. Venti C2 also works. I actually have that Venti, I wonder if he'll be useful at all?

Thank you for your guide. Can you suggest which artefact sets are best for Xian Yun, Furina, Faruzan in such Xiao team.

@zy0x could you maybe also show the artifact sets of the other supports for Xiao and their stats?

i got furina cause shes an "archon", xianyun cause shes hot, c6 faruzan because of xianyun. it just a no brainer move to pull for xiao at this point and im happy because of it

I love Xiao's new best team. My best Xiao team a year ago was Xiao melt wityh Ganyu+Xiangling+Bennett.

I couldn't find a Candace, collei, chongyun and gaming zy0x guide I was making a playlist of the genshin build guides and well I couldn't find some character guides on zy0x channel

The effectiveness of my Main accounts Xiao vs my alt account where i have highly invested in Xiao honestly makes quite the difference (i have Jade Wing and Homa, c6 faruzan, furina, xianyun) I still pulled him on my main account this last banner because I love him and i think hes fun. Will be working on his artifacts at the very least.

Oh another Xiao guide, cool. Still waiting on the Diluc guide though :)

what a nice dude, lament thanks man

Amazing video! Though I am waiting for updated Diluc guide since 1918

I got Xiao on his rerun and for 2.5 years I've been using the 2pcs 2pcs with R3 PJWS. I'm putting my excess artifacts into Vermillion now for that 8% damage increase, but it gonna take a while because 3 of artifact have about 40% CV. I got 202% cdm and 96% cr.

I guess I have to build my c6 Faruzan now. Since I got Xianyun I also have Furina. I'm gonna build this team!

I never really played Xiao but I ended up having everything for him to breeze through this abyss. I had Furina, C6 Faruzan from pulling Xianyun, Jade Spear and also grinded a full set of Desert Pavilion for Wanderer, he destroyed everything this abyss.

Speaking from personal experience, of you are running Faruzhan with both Xiao and Xianyun, ER isn't much of an issue anymore for any of them, especially if you've unlocked C1 for either Xiao or Xianyun.

Im very happy with these videos since I just got xiao 2 days ago lol as f2p

this xianyun and nahida banner was literally the most lucky banner for me, i got both xianyun, nahida, xinque(from the event), c2 gaming and c5 faruzan( i had c0 faruzan before the event) and ofc i have xiao too. and my max per plunge that i have got is 80k per plunge, and the average is between 40k to 50k. but unfortunately, i don't have furina or bennet.

Thank god he finally made it. I was waiting 😭😭

Can you show us your Xiao build please? I have his best in slot team comp and a really solid build for him, but find that the Staff of Homa does WAY more damage. I wanted to see what your Xiao looks like so I can see why my R2 winged spear isn’t hitting as hard as the Homa

literally I explored whole Sumeru and the new Liyue part to pull for xiao and pulled him yesterday

thank you!!! now i know how to build my diluc!!!!

I was really going back on forth on if I would get him now, but then I just got his weapon on the standard banner right before his banner started…. (Been playing ~9 months) I have a Xiao now, it was a sign from lament god

Hey, zyox I have a suggestion You should listen to wake me up by Anya Nami The song is inspired by Xiao

Thank you for this Diluc guide, while it wasnt needed it is very much welcome Mr Socks.

I just noticed that my mid maréchaussée set outdamaged my 2/2 by over 10% while having more ER. The crit this brings when Xiao is paired with Xianyun, Faruzan and Furina is so important

Used to be a xiao main before I stopped playing genshin and seeing my boy coming back ontop makes me wanna play genshin again

Oh my god Zyox. Not only did I know that you were already tall, humble, charismatic, funny, entertaining, and just... good overall, that you deserve this character, but now, I really can see... you getting rewarded for once, when every other time you've been unlucky

I just got Xiao and I’m using him with my c6 Faruzan. I also run Bennett and a flex that I can play around with. So far so good for my second time.

When is Zy0x streaming? I've been watching him for some time now, and ICANT get enough of him. Everytime I see him streaming, I abandon whatever i am doing because nothing is as important to me as mr socks strimming. I savor every morsel of his streams. His beautiful, curly brown hair; his voice, his jokes, his monologues, his quotes; it's like I could spend my while life watching his streams. And don't even get me started on how impeccable he is when he puts on an official costume. But for some reason, he hasnt streamed for whole 2 days now. I started feeling anxiety. Genuine fear, even. How can i live though another ordinary day of my grey, meaningless life without him? He's like a warm fire that warms me at cold nights and lightens my depressing days. He's the goliath that's holding this world on his shoulders, and i MEAN IT. (true) I will not elaborate, because i do not know further. The only thing i know for real is that he is the vermillion crit damage crit rate piece to my Xiao.

Ty mr zy0x one problem tho i seem to have lost my xianyun 50/50 and collected my c17 noelle while my faru is stuck at c2 so ill just wait for the rerun in late 2024- early 2025 for this exodia team :D

I still play a lot of xiao, but as i skipped from version 3.2 all the way to end of 4.3 i missed out on a lot of those characters. I still run him with c4 jean albedo and Zhongli

@Zy0x I have finally gotten Faruzan C6 and use her with Xianyun, Xiao and Bennett (Hopefully will get Furina at some point). I just have one question. My Faruzan has 300+er from before I got her C6, and since I run a triple anemo team and have C6 now, do I still need that much, if not what stats should I try and get.

I’ve been playing with xiao since his release 😢 makes me so happy to see how far he’s come

Man I got so lucky this patch. Not only did I win the 50/50 and get Xianyun early, I finally got C6 Faruzan. Thought this meant I'd for sure lose the 50/50 on Xiao BUT MY BOY CAME HOME. Ive been trying to get him for the past 3 banners T_T

is the new fonatine set only better for him if you have those supports? i dont have farazon or xianyun or water archon (i know none of those are spelled right lol) so should i farm the fontain set or vermillian>

Zy0x i had stopped playing genshin for a time, i just came back but i missed the xianyun banner. I play Xiao with Jean and a C3 Faruzan, is it still worth it to get Furina?

Surely one of the Xiao guides.

of course ZyOx makes a Xiao guide, OF COURSE

Good thing I farmed the Vermillion/Echoes domain since I got lucky with the pieces for both my Xiao and Ayato in just 1 month
