Xilonen Best Weapons In Genshin Impact

When discussing supports in Genshin Impact, meta characters like Furina, Bennett, and Kazuha, will surely come up. Curiously, these three best supports in Genshin Impact all wield a sword as their weapon.

Xilonen, a character who joins the cast in version 4.1, also uses a sword as her weapon. She’s an amazing support, but she doesn’t actually need specific stats to grant the team boost, as all buffs are flat and based on her Skill level. However, giving the best weapons for Xilonen in Genshin Impact is still ideal if the sword has extra supportive or even offensive effects to increase her presence on the battlefield.

8 Harbinger of Dawn

Primary Stat: 401 Base ATK
Secondary Stat: 46.9% CRIT DMG
R5 Effect: When HP is above 90%, increases CRIT Rate by 28%.

This 3-star weapon in Genshin Impact is a force to reckon with. It gives an insane Crit Value at the cost of low Base ATK. Thankfully, characters who don’t scale with ATK such as Albedo and Xilonen won’t mind the low Base ATK, making Harbinger of Dawn one of the best weapons for DPS Xilonen. If players manage a full uptime on its passive, this equipment potentially outperforms some 5-star options.

7 Favonius Sword

Primary Stat: 454 Base ATK
Secondary Stat: 61.3% Energy Recharge
R5 Effect: CRIT Hits have a 100% chance to generate a small amount of Elemental Particles, which will regenerate 6 Energy for the character. Can only occur once every 6s.

Genshin Impact: 7 Best Characters To Use Favonius Weapons

The Favonius series of weapons in Genshin Impact work well with certain characters. Here are the best examples.

When it comes to equipping weapons to a support, Sacrificial and Favonius weapons would pop up in mind. For Xilonen, Favonius Sword is perfect to grant her Energy Recharge while allowing her to double as a Battery in Genshin Impact. Just don’t forget to use Crit Rate Circlet to properly proc its passive.

6 Freedom-Sworn

Primary Stat: 608 Base ATK
Secondary Stat: 198 Elemental Mastery
R1 Effect: A part of the “Millennial Movement” that wanders amidst the winds. Increases DMG by 10%. When the character wielding this weapon triggers Elemental Reactions, they gain a Sigil of Rebellion. This effect can be triggered once every 0.5s and can be triggered even if said character is not on the field. When you possess 2 Sigils of Rebellion, all of them will be consumed and all nearby party members will obtain “Millennial Movement: Song of Resistance” for 12s. “Millennial Movement: Song of Resistance” increases Normal, Charged, and Plunging Attack DMG by 16% and increases ATK by 20%. Once this effect is triggered, you will not gain Sigils of Rebellion for 20s. Of the many effects of the “Millennial Movement,” buffs of the same type will not stack.

Although Xilonen doesn’t need Elemental Mastery, Freedom-Sworn is still an excellent sword for buffers in general. Xilonen can easily trigger Elemental Reactions when she does Crystallized while hitting enemies.

5 Cinnabar Spindle

Primary Stat: 454 Base ATK
Secondary Stat: 69.0% DEF
R5 Effect: Elemental Skill DMG is increased by 80% of DEF. The effect will be triggered no more than once every 1.5s and will be cleared 0.1s after the Elemental Skill deals DMG.

Xilonen needs DEF for both her damage and healing, so DEF weapons like Cinnabar Spindle are excellent for her. Sadly, this sword is only available to those who played the corresponding event in version 2.3, so it’s not for everyone.

4 Haran Geppaku Futsu

Primary Stat: 608 Base ATK
Secondary Stat: 33.1% Crit Rate
R1 Effect: Obtain 12% All Elemental DMG Bonus. When other nearby party members use Elemental Skills, the character equipping this weapon will gain 1 Wavespike stack. Max 2 stacks. This effect can be triggered once every 0.3s. When the character equipping this weapon uses an Elemental Skill, all stacks of Wavespike will be consumed to gain Rippling Upheaval: each stack of Wavespike consumed will increase Normal Attack DMG by 20% for 8s.

Genshin Impact: The Best Kamisato Ayato Builds

Kamisato Ayato’s mechanic in Genshin Impact is similar to that of Childe, but his best builds are very different due mainly to him wielding a sword.

Players who run Xilonen as a DPS would love 5-star Critical Rate and DMG stat-sticks, but among them, Haran Geppaku Futsu stood out the most. DPS Xilonen would use a lot of her Normal Attack, making Ayato’s signature weapon in Genshin Impact a perfect fit.

3 Flute of Ezpitzal

xilonen using flute of ezpitzal weapon in genshin impact

Primary Stat: 454 Base ATK
Secondary Stat: 69.0% DEF
R5 Effect: Using an Elemental Skill increases DEF by 32% for 15s.

Unlike Cinnabar Spindle, Flute of Ezpitzal is highly accessible, as it’s one of the five forgeable weapons in Genshin Impact Natlan. Simply head to the blacksmith of the region and get the blueprint to craft the sword.

2 Uraku Misugiri

Primary Stat: 542 Base ATK
Secondary Stat: 88.2% Crit DMG
R1 Effect: Normal Attack DMG is increased by 16% and Elemental Skill DMG is increased by 24%. After a nearby active character deals Geo DMG, the aforementioned effects increase by 100% for 15s. Additionally, the wielder’s DEF is increased by 20%.

Genshin Impact: Chiori Team Composition Guide

Chiori is a simple sub-DPS in Genshin Impact, but one part of her mechanic demands a second Geo character in her team composition.

Chiori and Xilonen are both DEF-Geo characters, making Chiori’s weapon a great fit for DPS Xilonen.

1 Peak Patrol Song

Primary Stat: 542 Base ATK
Secondary Stat: 82.7% DEF
R1 Effect: Gain “Ode to Flowers” after Normal or Plunging Attacks hit an opponent: DEF increases by 8% and gain a 10% All Elemental DMG Bonus for 6s. Max 2 stacks. Can trigger once per 0.1s. When this effect reaches 2 stacks or the 2nd stack’s duration is refreshed, increase all nearby party members’ All Elemental DMG Bonus by 8% for every 1,000 DEF the equipping character has, up to a maximum of 25.6%, for 15s.

Peak Patrol Song is the peak weapon for Xilonen. It increases her DPS and DEF at the same time, while also providing supportive passive. For both DPS and support Xilonen, this sword is the best one to equip.
