EDIT: 1) can always sub xingqiu for yelan anywhere. 2) Hu Tao this way is BETTER than having c1 IMO - c1 is still good on other teams 3) in addition to missing ones I mentioned, i also would have liked to try xinyan, plunge neuvillette, taser xianyun, melt plunge diluc/hu tao. And I did test triple hydro with xianyun driver, it was good of course how could it not be. 4) VS Jean section- the other thing to consider is the survivability. I know i talk about it elsewhere but it is so noticeable how well she keeps your team healthy consistently versus basically any other healer
I wouldn’t say c1 is a waste …my furina is perma stuck to neuv (best dps in the game) and it saves me from pulling CR when I already have Jean. Archaic Petra Zhongli and double hydro already make Hu tao so strong and comfy
Right when you mentioned jump canceling on Raiden, I suddenly realized that C0 Hu Tao has to jump cancel A LOT. Now you can jump cancel INTO plunge attack. And sure enough that was the next team you showed.
@@ieatlostsoulz Obviously Diluc is themed around a Phoenix, the OP is CLEARLY making a pun by NOT saying Phoenix intentionally and subverting expectations.
@@ThespianGamr I understood that, I don’t need you to explain sub level things to me. I’m telling you the one commenting about “phoenix” didn’t miss the point they just stated that a chance was missed. How hard is that for you to understand?
Her overworld value is higher than I expected. The way she leaps over obstacles, glides over terrain, and launches off cliffs straight into gliding is so much more consistent and enjoyable in a lot of areas even if she's technically slower top speed than Yelan. Probably Yelan still overall faster in the majority of situations but zipping around with Xianyun is way more fun.
i’m having a lot of fun with her by leaping up staircases and hills too. 😂 But in comparison, Wanderer is still my go-to for anythign requiring a more precise movement (like when you’re stuck underneath an overhang but you’re on the side of the building or mountain, or for low inclines.) For now though; I’m in love with Xianyun’s smooth and fluid jumps so she will be a staple in my party for a long time.
Sitting around waiting for Nahida's banner to drop (been waiting for more than a year) and thought I'd check youtube. You really meant it when you said you'd make this the second Xianyun drops, god damn.
I am really interested in itto. Hoyo balanced his scaling since he was supossed to be played as a charged attack dps and hes able to get tons of attack, but they didnt balanced the plunge dmg.. and i dont see anyone testing it, same for cyno. People will soon unlock her full potential
Im sorry but i just got C2 Nahihi in a single 10 pull from 0 pity after getting Xianyun! I have no one to tell so I'm throwing this out here, I'm literally shaking wtf have a good day (EU)
Been having insane luck for the past few months and just got Nahida winning the 50/50 at 11 pity. It was the right choice but now I am hoping I can get Xianyun because she just seems so fun. Thanks for all the work you put into these videos!
Seeing Klee just constantly do a little fireball is pretty funny. I wish she had some cool animation when she hits the ground or cannonballs with her plunge like when she dives and does extra damage lol.
Your content fells the most complete of all content creators, great work. It helps to get a very good undertanding of the team building and to do the **initial** steps, on making a the abyss 36 possible with new characters.
I'd like to see Freminet Forward Melt team. He can set up Cryo with his Skill, then Plunge. He technically has the highest Plunge Multiplier thanks to his C3.
Update: been trying her with Heizou, man I never had such a fun/easy rotation within the abyss with her. With Heizou, C6 Faruzan, Furina, and Xianyun, it finally feels like a proper rotation with him on field.
Hypercarry Xianyun is really fun and I'm glad I have a good Marechausse set I can transfer to anyone. I was hitting 90k on her skill and 40-50k on her plunges which definitely surprised me considering her talents were at 1/1/8.
I'd recommend actually testing Navia. It's better than ehhh. She has good plunge multipliers and actually gets surprisingly close to vape damage just by her insane %increases. It also feels like having a second geo in the team, normally a geo wouldn't care about no ICD plunges but it's very cool for her. You get a DPS increase over her NA string and you easily stack up 6 stacks, if you dash cancel you can also get exactly 4 plunge attacks which makes for a really clean rotation. I know swirl geo and such, but everything else in their kits synergizes really well. It's one of those things that sounds insane, but I was clearing the more AoE side of Abyss (wasn't running Yelan since I don't basic attack so had no bow and I'm not fighting Wenut and Drake without one) in 2 rotations per floor.
awesome video, I really appreciate your hard work, I was trying out heizou with her right now (furina, c6 faruzan, xianyun, heizou) and it felt really really awesome, finally a team where heizou actually feels like more than a VV driver
She’s loads of fun, just like Gaming. Refreshing to see Hoyo bring out characters like Xianyun and Furina that shift team building so much. Keep having fun!
Honestly!!! I was pulling for Nahida with some stocked up wishes but honestly got super hyped about lucking out on Gaming constellations. He’s just SO fun and such a cutie! 💕 Hope he gets a hangout!
@@MugWitch I hope he gets a hangout event soon. Usually I'm not into that sort of stuff but Gaming has me really intrigued lol. Have you got him to C6 yet?
Was kinda shocked to hear Xianyun wasn't your favourite Gaming team. I like Gaming but I wasn't sure if he was worth using without her, so I'm definitely looking forward to the next video. I also appreciate you didn't pretend to know about Xiao. I think a lot of people would've just gone with assumptions, while it's a bit sad to not hear your thoughts on Xiao/Xianyun (yet?) the honesty is definitely something that should be commended.
its always great when anemo supports get releaased because theres only one set you want on them and most people already have many pieces from this set lol so i dont have to spend resin on artifacts
I am really surprised how good she is. I was really skeptical seeing her kit and everything. I mainly got her to see if I could do some Eula shenanigans but she basically enables so much that I havnt even bothered trying Eula yet. Really having fun with Gaming surprisingly. Awesome video as always!
"You're kinda wasting her if you don't have Furina." Well I guess building my entire account was a waste because everything revolves around Furina all of a sudden! lol smh
I feel like everyone suddenly start to become a furina shill. Like yes she’s strong, but let’s not pretend there aren’t already strong archetype CR can build upon.
Xianyun is a team-wide healer. That's what separates her from Kazuha which offers more damage and grouping. Furina benefits by having a team-wide healer. Otherwise you want Kazuha. I'm sorry, but that's how Hiyo is making team-wide healers. It's why Jean or c6 Noelle suddenly became strong. Charlotte was made specifically for Furina. Team-wide heal = Furina buffer in a similar way that Faruzan = Anemo dps buffer.
I'm gonna have to pull xianyun myself to test it out but for diluc team 13:38, that team has been around for quite a while with jean being used instead of xianyun; jean's c2 gives movement speed buff allowing dragonstrike technique. I've been using it for a while and I get similar clear time as you've shown (early 9 minute mark) so I'm gonna have to try her out with bennet + furina team instead; if this doesn't give me consistent vape I might have to think a bit of whether to pull xianyun or not.
been messing with her and wriothesley with furina and shenhe feels somewhat decent although shes only level 70 right now with a lvl 70 thrilling tales. if you cancel his 4th attack just like the melt combo. you can hold the 5th attack doing a charge attack jump cancel just like hu tao into a plunge. if you canceled the 4th attack properly, he would still have shenhe quills for that charge attack and plunge. doesn't feel like his best team but definitely feels usable. and it looks pretty cool doing it feels like doing a street fighter combo.
Cyno works similarly to Xiao, in terms of playstyle: I tried him with Nahida, Furina and Xyanyun. He even has the perfect uptime for his skill, N1P X3 -> E It feels sooooo good!
I'm doing over 200k with Diluc and in overworld 300k. I'm using Diluc r5 serpant, Xianyun oathsworn, Bennett r5 favionus and Ganyu r1 elegy. He's just cracked now dealing over a million every 5 strikes.
i've been meaning to get hu tao's c1 sometime, and recently i pulled xianyun for xiao. i didnt expect how fun and strong hu tao's jump cancels into plunges would feel hahaha ill probably use hu tao's c1 funds into a different character
Thanks for mentioning the build modifications (from their "generic" builds) for the characters you were on-fielding. While I think it's fun for players who have built up at least one team before and know a bit of team building, I wonder how confusing it is for really new players now, that the ATK sands, elemental damage goblet, crit circlet artifact combo is not the automatic set anymore. (Yes I know it's likely less than 10% difference, especially given how much flat Defense a new player's artifact set will have as substats, but it would make for some confusing discussions.)
35:30 Sunfire Jean is still a thing. Jean can VV shred Pyro (or any swirlable element that you can self apply, but Pyro with Bennett is the best one) against enemies that have an inherent element (like Tulpa). Also Jean still has some gimmicks where she's abusing Fall damage against certain lighter enemies.
Jean only heals once, which means when her burst stop, your team will lose hp until all have 50% left, then we cast her burst again, get 200 stacks for furina immediately, and slowly gain stacks after that. With Xianyun, I think she will heal the party all the time, so the 200 stacks right away will not happen because your team is all full hp. I am not sure about level up her burst so high is a good idea.
Yeah, Jean creates a healing field for 10 seconds. Between the two, Jean heals more upfront immediately, while Retainer has a higher heal over time. They break even at around 10 seconds, and everything after that is pure gain in raw numbers for Retainer. She is still indeed much better for healing yourself against Furina's teamwide damage, and for pre-healing into a reckless situation for your melee dudes. Not being married to Circle Impact is a big deal, and being able to debuff Res at range with an auto attack is a nice quality of life. (....and sometimes I straight up whiff Jean's wind blade with it going into aiming mode when I don't intend to, or stand a little too far away. Additionally I prefer the longer recharge, higher energy generation of birb's skill. It's only extra value, if you want them on the field as little as possible.)
For overworld her C1 is pretty crazy. If you don't use the plunging portion and are going primarily for horizontal, you can effectively use her skill close to 3 times in a row.
After watching this and your Nahida videos, I was so torn on who to pull for on this banner. I started out with 133 wishes. I lost my 50/50 to Tighnari who I didnt have, got my Nahida with 31 wishes to spare and then got Xianyun on my first single pull! Primos to spare and three 5 stars!! Not bad. Thanks for these guides, Jello! Can't wait to build my new characters!
I had Nahida prefarmed before this patch, tried Xianyun out in her trial and ended up pulling for her instead. Zero regrets. This is my favorite character so far from Hoyo. She's so versatile and fun to play in both combat and exploration
Before this review dropped, I wasn't planning to pull for Xianyun. Now I'm wavering. As a newer player (started in 4.0) Nahida remains my priority, but if I should win her 50/50, pulling for Xianyun would be justifiable. On another note, the team selector has been expanded from 10 teams to 15. Having more slots makes team experimentation a lot easier.
Been waiting since getting Yoimiya (fourth run's the charm!) at low pity, after losing to soft-pity Jean C1, so scrounged up enough to guarantee, but I did win Cloud Retainer on 50/50! Along the way, C2 Gaming and two more Noelles for...C8. What I needed was two more Faruzan, which mercifully came before a jumpscare Nahida C1 (though losing to an early Dehya would've been nice for rounding out my Standard roster~) around a stray The Flute R5. Very satisfied with this banner, despite the flops, and hope Gaming's rerun is in good company.
I tried the Hutao, Furina, Yelan, Xianyun combo At very low investment Xianyun i can still 3 star abys. I am still building her so she is lvl 70 with any atk artifacts i have is really scary 😅 The extra AOE is also icing on the cake.😊 Thank you for the guide
As I own every one in the Hutao team that showed here? I see this as an absolute win, didn't even consider getting her for comparability, just love her design, character and over world abilities, and now I got the preferred team comp 😊 Forgot to mention the exploration benefits of this team having Furina, Yelan and Xianyun? Ayo
Everyone that has infusion pretty much gets a huge buff from Xianyun, if not then you can get infusion from another character or even just go 2pc-2pc physical bonus, I have a physical Amber that does good damage with the plunge thanks to Xianyun, of course it's nothing compared to other characters' damage but it's fun and does do some good damage
Probably a weapon not many people have, but Wine and Song seems pretty comparable to Oathsworn Eye at R2/R3 and maybe a little stronger at high refinement. Oathsworn Eye is on my Charlotte so I'll probably give Xianyun my R2 Wine and Song.
Think with Klee you'll want to N1C > jump plunge attack or N2C > jump plunge attack. She does a lot of her damage through charged attacks, and similar to Hu Tao you cancel the charged attacks with jump. I haven't built my Xianyun yet so this is just theorycrafting, but pretty sure charge attack cancelling is the way to go.
Hello Jello, My thoughts on the video: overall I like what I saw with some of the unique teams and her enabling playstyle. I think the tests you did were pretty good and show a lot of potential with characters that some didn't think of. That said, I think you also hyper focused on Furina a lot during your video and/or testing. I was surprised to see you not testing other reactions as much. You did test melt with Ayaka and Shenhe but I was curious to see if you'd try taser, aggravate, etc. teams to test and experiment if she could be an enabler for those as well. Example: Fischle, Xingqiu, Beidou, and Xianyun where either she, Beidou, or Xing could be the on-fielder. or Keqing aggravate with Xianyun instead of Kazuha. I'm not disappointed or anything but I think focusing on Furina takes the video quality down a little, and I love using Furina, don't get me wrong. But it's nice to see how effective she can be without the same units as the core and then judge if they could be worth it. It's fun to experiment with things and I love that you messed with Kazuha, Bennett, and Candace to see what they'd be like. I will admit, you did say you didn't have a lot of resources for leveling up other units' Normal attack talents, so maybe we'll see more in the future for other types of teams? All in all, I'm excited to see you "cook" more with this and other future units on unique teams to give perspective on if they can work or not.
I did test aggravate with yae so you can get a pretty good idea how keqing would have performed. but I agree I missed taser. The big issue is this abyss is pretty awful for taser lol. But I definitely should have mentioned
Aside double hydro which I did test, I can’t think of any other non furina teams. I wish I did the ones I mentioned for sure, do you think there’s any else I missed?
@@JelloImpact true, you did use Yae aggravate, while I was re-watching, I was about to edit that to say other types of aggravate teams in general because you also mentioned something with Razor. Have you considered Mono teams for this abyss? Example: Hu Tao, Xiangling, Benny, and our new Bird Lady for the swirls, could be good for the first floor. Very true tho, this abyss does make things difficult to experiment on floor 12, how about testing in other floors with more enemies? Not to see if they can clear, rather, just to see how they feel over all. Totally up to you of course, it is your time that's being used, not ours.
You are so fast lol how to you pull, farm, test and also edit the video so fast?! That's crazy man you're amazing! Keep up the good work but also take care of yourself ❤ gg
not sold on plunge meta but i pulled her c1 for overworld comfort. and man was it worth. hop hop hop hop hop hop yelan e yelan e hop hop hop hop hop hop feels so good
Hi, were you using Marechausse or Crimson Witch (or other) on your Hu Tao? Would Xingqiu be a good replacement for Yelan in this comp (Hu Tao / Furina / Xingqiu / Xianyun) Thanks 😊
So far I'm just using Xianyun as on field driver for exploration and it's a lot of fun. She can be used simmilar to Sucrose or Kokomi. As for weapons I found out that she procs Cagura's Verity passive for all damage bonus, after using 3xE.
ngl with xianyun's release, artifact loadouts becomes more important because you can have 1 loadout with a good set of mh and a lot of characters are able to use that specific set with a click of a button
Considering I have c2 Furina and Hu Tao both built... I am going to have so much fun. And she is fantastic for over world. Once you get used to the skill usage, you can travel around very fast. Just takes a little practice knowing the angle of her 3rd hop and how to navigate a mid air turn. Only downside I see is that Navia no longer gets my Furina. Which means I actually have to get artifacts for her instead of just using my MH set... Pretty much the only thing that would make her better (other than a big AoE suck like Kazuha or Sucrose) was if she could do her first skill hop mid air.
Klee is definitely the most fun. Not because she does damage but because it's hilarious when seeing how she turns into a little fireball and the thought of her ground pounding everyone like goombas is just silly.
Jello, do you think Xianyun changes the meta for claymore characters? Because they (generally) have the highest plunge damage multipliers in the game, does it enable a new strong playstyle?
EDIT: 1) can always sub xingqiu for yelan anywhere.
2) Hu Tao this way is BETTER than having c1 IMO - c1 is still good on other teams
3) in addition to missing ones I mentioned, i also would have liked to try xinyan, plunge neuvillette, taser xianyun, melt plunge diluc/hu tao. And I did test triple hydro with xianyun driver, it was good of course how could it not be.
4) VS Jean section- the other thing to consider is the survivability. I know i talk about it elsewhere but it is so noticeable how well she keeps your team healthy consistently versus basically any other healer
I wouldn’t say c1 is a waste …my furina is perma stuck to neuv (best dps in the game) and it saves me from pulling CR when I already have Jean. Archaic Petra Zhongli and double hydro already make Hu tao so strong and comfy
Thanks for the complete 360 on the way genshin treats players. screw people like you
@@tactician3023sure sure, it’s still great for other teams
in the hutao team could anyone replace furina if you dont have her?
@@bobbywilkins5469 Xingqiu Yelan Xianyun Hutao would work fine too, just miss out on a lot of damage buffs from Furina
Right when you mentioned jump canceling on Raiden, I suddenly realized that C0 Hu Tao has to jump cancel A LOT. Now you can jump cancel INTO plunge attack. And sure enough that was the next team you showed.
yes exactly why i also wanted cloud retainer
It's even better than C1 hu tao lol@@ayeintro
Instead of jump cancelling hutao, jump plunding, may be reduce the amount of charge attack of hu tao.. Right?

been messing with her and wriothesley with furina and shenhe feels somewhat decent although shes only level 70 right now with a lvl 70 thrilling tales. if you cancel his 4th attack just like the melt combo. you can hold the 5th attack doing a charge attack jump cancel just like hu tao into a plunge. if you canceled the 4th attack properly, he would still have shenhe quills for that charge attack and plunge. doesn't feel like his best team but definitely feels usable. and it looks pretty cool doing it feels like doing a street fighter combo.
“You guys dont get it”
Cyno works similarly to Xiao, in terms of playstyle:
I tried him with Nahida, Furina and Xyanyun.
He even has the perfect uptime for his skill, N1P X3 -> E
It feels sooooo good!
I'm doing over 200k with Diluc and in overworld 300k. I'm using Diluc r5 serpant, Xianyun oathsworn, Bennett r5 favionus and Ganyu r1 elegy. He's just cracked now dealing over a million every 5 strikes.
I didn‘t even have time to pull and bro did already a full guide❤😂
i've been meaning to get hu tao's c1 sometime, and recently i pulled xianyun for xiao. i didnt expect how fun and strong hu tao's jump cancels into plunges would feel hahaha ill probably use hu tao's c1 funds into a different character
Thanks for mentioning the build modifications (from their "generic" builds) for the characters you were on-fielding.
While I think it's fun for players who have built up at least one team before and know a bit of team building, I wonder how confusing it is for really new players now, that the ATK sands, elemental damage goblet, crit circlet artifact combo is not the automatic set anymore. (Yes I know it's likely less than 10% difference, especially given how much flat Defense a new player's artifact set will have as substats, but it would make for some confusing discussions.)
35:30 Sunfire Jean is still a thing. Jean can VV shred Pyro (or any swirlable element that you can self apply, but Pyro with Bennett is the best one) against enemies that have an inherent element (like Tulpa).
Also Jean still has some gimmicks where she's abusing Fall damage against certain lighter enemies.
Jean only heals once, which means when her burst stop, your team will lose hp until all have 50% left, then we cast her burst again, get 200 stacks for furina immediately, and slowly gain stacks after that. With Xianyun, I think she will heal the party all the time, so the 200 stacks right away will not happen because your team is all full hp. I am not sure about level up her burst so high is a good idea.
jean doesn’t heal only once lol after the burst heal there is still continuous heal
Yeah, Jean creates a healing field for 10 seconds. Between the two, Jean heals more upfront immediately, while Retainer has a higher heal over time. They break even at around 10 seconds, and everything after that is pure gain in raw numbers for Retainer.
She is still indeed much better for healing yourself against Furina's teamwide damage, and for pre-healing into a reckless situation for your melee dudes. Not being married to Circle Impact is a big deal, and being able to debuff Res at range with an auto attack is a nice quality of life. (....and sometimes I straight up whiff Jean's wind blade with it going into aiming mode when I don't intend to, or stand a little too far away. Additionally I prefer the longer recharge, higher energy generation of birb's skill. It's only extra value, if you want them on the field as little as possible.)
@@BMoser-bv6kn after 10 seconds, u might be in the next rotation tho.
@@berrybaskets6142but circle impact tho
For overworld her C1 is pretty crazy. If you don't use the plunging portion and are going primarily for horizontal, you can effectively use her skill close to 3 times in a row.
Amazing guide. Was going to Skip!
I have HuTao... now I want her
Really wanna pull for her but I gotta stay strong and keep saving for Yelan, Clorinde and Columbina 🙃
Who?
@@Lassila96 Columbina? She’s one of the fatui harbingers
This guide was amazing as always still torn on pulling her but she seems way better then expected
Thank you for putting this together! I used my free primos from the update and got her on accident, so im looking into some teams
I feel like I can finally get rid of the curse of putting Kazuha in EVERY SINGLE TEAM
After watching this and your Nahida videos, I was so torn on who to pull for on this banner. I started out with 133 wishes. I lost my 50/50 to Tighnari who I didnt have, got my Nahida with 31 wishes to spare and then got Xianyun on my first single pull! Primos to spare and three 5 stars!! Not bad. Thanks for these guides, Jello! Can't wait to build my new characters!
Truly the Best Xianyun Guide on TH-cam
I love how Bennett C6 is almost normalized now XD
Great testing :) Would love to see an update on the Chongyun variant in the future!
I had Nahida prefarmed before this patch, tried Xianyun out in her trial and ended up pulling for her instead. Zero regrets. This is my favorite character so far from Hoyo. She's so versatile and fun to play in both combat and exploration
Before this review dropped, I wasn't planning to pull for Xianyun. Now I'm wavering. As a newer player (started in 4.0) Nahida remains my priority, but if I should win her 50/50, pulling for Xianyun would be justifiable.
On another note, the team selector has been expanded from 10 teams to 15. Having more slots makes team experimentation a lot easier.
Been waiting since getting Yoimiya (fourth run's the charm!) at low pity, after losing to soft-pity Jean C1, so scrounged up enough to guarantee, but I did win Cloud Retainer on 50/50! Along the way, C2 Gaming and two more Noelles for...C8. What I needed was two more Faruzan, which mercifully came before a jumpscare Nahida C1 (though losing to an early Dehya would've been nice for rounding out my Standard roster~) around a stray The Flute R5. Very satisfied with this banner, despite the flops, and hope Gaming's rerun is in good company.
My guy itto I tried itto with her man am surprised bruh that's so good lol tons of damage lol
I hope that the Pyro Archon is a great sword user like Gaming.
I tried the Hutao, Furina, Yelan, Xianyun combo At very low investment Xianyun i can still 3 star abys. I am still building her so she is lvl 70 with any atk artifacts i have is really scary 😅
The extra AOE is also icing on the cake.😊
Thank you for the guide
I wish that Childe has plunge attacks in his dagger stance. He jump cancels after his combos too so it would’ve been cool to see him work here.
I feel bad benching my Jean for Xianyun, so much so that I'm tempted to stick a Noblesse set on Jean and try out Jean plunge!
As a wriothesley main,I really wanted him to be good with xianyun.
As I own every one in the Hutao team that showed here? I see this as an absolute win, didn't even consider getting her for comparability, just love her design, character and over world abilities, and now I got the preferred team comp 😊
Forgot to mention the exploration benefits of this team having Furina, Yelan and Xianyun? Ayo
Everyone that has infusion pretty much gets a huge buff from Xianyun, if not then you can get infusion from another character or even just go 2pc-2pc physical bonus, I have a physical Amber that does good damage with the plunge thanks to Xianyun, of course it's nothing compared to other characters' damage but it's fun and does do some good damage
lost my xianyun 50/50 to jean and now i will live with being a lesser batman main
Probably a weapon not many people have, but Wine and Song seems pretty comparable to Oathsworn Eye at R2/R3 and maybe a little stronger at high refinement. Oathsworn Eye is on my Charlotte so I'll probably give Xianyun my R2 Wine and Song.
Think with Klee you'll want to N1C > jump plunge attack or N2C > jump plunge attack. She does a lot of her damage through charged attacks, and similar to Hu Tao you cancel the charged attacks with jump. I haven't built my Xianyun yet so this is just theorycrafting, but pretty sure charge attack cancelling is the way to go.
Hello Jello,
My thoughts on the video: overall I like what I saw with some of the unique teams and her enabling playstyle. I think the tests you did were pretty good and show a lot of potential with characters that some didn't think of.
That said, I think you also hyper focused on Furina a lot during your video and/or testing.
I was surprised to see you not testing other reactions as much. You did test melt with Ayaka and Shenhe but I was curious to see if you'd try taser, aggravate, etc. teams to test and experiment if she could be an enabler for those as well.
Example: Fischle, Xingqiu, Beidou, and Xianyun where either she, Beidou, or Xing could be the on-fielder.
or Keqing aggravate with Xianyun instead of Kazuha.
I'm not disappointed or anything but I think focusing on Furina takes the video quality down a little, and I love using Furina, don't get me wrong. But it's nice to see how effective she can be without the same units as the core and then judge if they could be worth it.
It's fun to experiment with things and I love that you messed with Kazuha, Bennett, and Candace to see what they'd be like.
I will admit, you did say you didn't have a lot of resources for leveling up other units' Normal attack talents, so maybe we'll see more in the future for other types of teams?
All in all, I'm excited to see you "cook" more with this and other future units on unique teams to give perspective on if they can work or not.
I did test aggravate with yae so you can get a pretty good idea how keqing would have performed. but I agree I missed taser. The big issue is this abyss is pretty awful for taser lol. But I definitely should have mentioned
Another Furina less team that could have worked was melt diluc or Hu Tao maybe? Should have tried that. Hard to think of everything haha
I tried gaming melt and hated it lol but could have tried something else
Aside double hydro which I did test, I can’t think of any other non furina teams. I wish I did the ones I mentioned for sure, do you think there’s any else I missed?
@@JelloImpact true, you did use Yae aggravate, while I was re-watching, I was about to edit that to say other types of aggravate teams in general because you also mentioned something with Razor.
Have you considered Mono teams for this abyss? Example: Hu Tao, Xiangling, Benny, and our new Bird Lady for the swirls, could be good for the first floor.
Very true tho, this abyss does make things difficult to experiment on floor 12, how about testing in other floors with more enemies? Not to see if they can clear, rather, just to see how they feel over all. Totally up to you of course, it is your time that's being used, not ours.
The bennette build looks like alot of fun, gonna try that out when i get her leveled up, also gonna use her with Kazuha/Raiden, layla, ganyu
I'm really on the fence between yae and xianyun since I like them both and I have a guaranteed saved up. This video helps out a ton.
You are so fast lol how to you pull, farm, test and also edit the video so fast?! That's crazy man you're amazing! Keep up the good work but also take care of yourself ❤ gg
not sold on plunge meta but i pulled her c1 for overworld comfort. and man was it worth. hop hop hop hop hop hop yelan e yelan e hop hop hop hop hop hop feels so good
Hi, were you using Marechausse or Crimson Witch (or other) on your Hu Tao? Would Xingqiu be a good replacement for Yelan in this comp (Hu Tao / Furina / Xingqiu / Xianyun)
Thanks 😊
My guess is Marechausse (?) but you can use Xingqiu.
So far I'm just using Xianyun as on field driver for exploration and it's a lot of fun. She can be used simmilar to Sucrose or Kokomi. As for weapons I found out that she procs Cagura's Verity passive for all damage bonus, after using 3xE.
if you use her skill close to the ground, you'll get an extra boost on the third jump
ngl with xianyun's release, artifact loadouts becomes more important because you can have 1 loadout with a good set of mh and a lot of characters are able to use that specific set with a click of a button
Considering I have c2 Furina and Hu Tao both built... I am going to have so much fun. And she is fantastic for over world. Once you get used to the skill usage, you can travel around very fast. Just takes a little practice knowing the angle of her 3rd hop and how to navigate a mid air turn. Only downside I see is that Navia no longer gets my Furina. Which means I actually have to get artifacts for her instead of just using my MH set... Pretty much the only thing that would make her better (other than a big AoE suck like Kazuha or Sucrose) was if she could do her first skill hop mid air.
waiting for any cyno xianyun comps out there!!!
Its insane how Furina is just everywhere💀
Klee is definitely the most fun. Not because she does damage but because it's hilarious when seeing how she turns into a little fireball and the thought of her ground pounding everyone like goombas is just silly.
No one talking about alhaitham plunging with freedom sworn is a crime
Jello, do you think Xianyun changes the meta for claymore characters? Because they (generally) have the highest plunge damage multipliers in the game, does it enable a new strong playstyle?
finally someone to use my lvl 1 oathsworn eye!
THANK YOU JELLO
Lost 50/50 to Jean , crying rn
Oof lol
Don’t cry, I lost to Mona at 86 pity😂
@@yc9711ouch 😅 I have 270 wishes going for nahida first and hoping not to lose the 50/50 twice 🤞
I don’t have Furina, but I would still like Xianyun. We can’t all get all the characters.
From tests Ive seen, shes faster than yelan on average.
