Welcome to Pocket Gamer’s detailed Genshin Impact Xiao guide! Xiao is an adeptus and is the only surviving member of the Five Yakshas sent by Morax to defeat demons that haunted Liyue. He lives in the Wangshu Inn and prefers to be away from humans and unwanted attention.
In order to pay tribute to the late Geo Archon, Xiao has taken up the task of watching over Liyue and vowing to protect it from threats, even if he doesn’t directly interact with its citizens.
In the guide below you will find the following features:
Character Appearance
Xiao Element / Tier / Rarity / Weapon
Anemo / S Tier / 5* Rarity / Polearm
In Genshin Impact, Xiao is a strong Polearm-wielding Anemo user who excels at plunge attacks and exploring, thanks to his ability to dash while in-air. As an adeptus, his tremendous power is an envious one, but he uses his abilities at the cost of HP, which makes him reliant on others, regardless of whether he wants to be or not.
How to get Xiao
You can only obtain Xiao in his own featured banner, Invitation to Mundane Life, which is currently inactive. He is not available in the standard wish banner, Wanderlust Invocation.
In Genshin Impact, Xiao will be your DPS, as he can do some serious damage, as long as he’s alive to use them. Use Bennett to heal and provide additional damage when Xiao is resting from his Burst. Sucrose can help the team by grouping enemies, provide Anemo resonance, and give the team additional energy. Zhongli is a great choice for shields and debuffs.
F2P Team
Xiao will act as your DPS, and he can get some additional energy from the Traveler (Anemo). Barbara can help keep the team’s HP up with her healing abilities. Use Noelle to boost the length that Xiao can stay on the field with her shields.
