Sorry guys, I've been recovering from some kind of cold so uploads have been a bit slow. Next video will be a THIS TYPE OF CHALLENGE VIDEO vs the new 12-3-1 Jadebloom Terrorshroom!
Will you make a video on C6 Faruzan?
We need a THIS TYPE OF CHALLENGE VIDEO playlist please 🙏🏻
I hope you recover soon :D
Also looking forward for more of your vodeos
Thanks for having me :D
Man i been watching u for a year and today i come to know that u have a son!!?
I would had loved to see a C0 showcase since xiao constellations are pretty negligible compared to wanderer. Also the dps would have been more relatable.
Yeah, Xiao C1 and C6 increase DMG but situational. Overall wanderer better kits design while Xiao C2,C4 is just so his issue is minimal.
Yeah... relatable... as a f2p I also like using my c4 Jean, r5 FS and c6 r5 elegy Faruzan with my c0 xiao...
@@demon-reaper1265 😆
Agreed. Xiao was designed before a time when they made the C6s stupid OP
He cannot disable cons, so it would be C6 xiao Vs c0 wanderer.
it would be nice to see a C0 comparison between these two
Too bad you can't turn off constalations
The funny part is that xiao would win and it would not be close
right
@@ziebus904 4 of Xiao's constellation is useless tho(Xiao's E scale so bad so C3 is also useless, i accept C1 because it help battery tho)
@@phunghieu7093 Yes but overall Xiao is still objectively the stronger dps
Whenever Xiao's HP falls below 50%, he will get a 100% DEF bonus.
Very noice
Thats rediculously strong
i mean, all hyv needs to do to redeem this badly designed c4 is to change literally only 2 letters... DEF to DMG... is that even hard hyv smh
The most broken cons in genshin (literally)
we know,, thats his awful c4
The biggest thing I can tell holding Xiao back isn't his damage numbers, it's the amount of time it takes to do multiple plunge attacks vs wanderer who normal attack spams. I'm really impressed with Xiao's performance here.
Well they have different kit💀 if Xiao had the same atk speed as wanderer it would be ridiculous and "balance" exist
@@arshiya379 tru
the biggest thing that is holding xiao back is that when u have a showdown between 2 c6 units that both have godly artifacts, everything still dies too fast (I mean, just look at that lvl 100 aeonblight drake comparison, I struggle to take it down with a FULL TEAM in under 90 seconds), so naturally whoever has the lowest delay between attacks would come out on top. In an endurance test between xiao and wanderer, I reckon the latter would come out on top.
@@arshiya379 there nothing more ridiculus than yelan c6
@@hulahupjingga I didn't talk about cons
Shintenzu is absolutely cracked with his Xiao mechanics, very impressive
I always thought Genshin is a casual game, but the likes of Shintenzu and Wallenstein keep reminding me that casual doesn't equal low mechanic
Considering Xiao's C2 and C4 is basically useless, it's still good to see him perform this good (technically Shintenzu brings that out).
i love me that +100% DEF lol. Honestly I think the idea of that being a constellation is justified since its more dangerous to be onfield doing damage if your health is that low. Unfortunately, just like for hutao, zhongli exists lol
C3 and C5 are also basically useless, with his C1 being just "yeah, better than nothing".
@@ghotifish1838 Def not justified as a constellation unless its on a character like itto
Maybe 100% Resistance to interruption instead of 100% Defense is better. Makes you able to go without a shield so long as you have Bennett you're good.
C1 works only if you need just 2 rotations, but something that you can work around with. An extra 2 or 3 particles can be solved by other units. The constellation upgrade for the skill is meh as it would only truly see significant change when you have C6. As for the burst upgrade constellation, he already has so much dmg bonus that it barely gives more damage. You don't go for that constellation because if you ever spend, you go for C6 all the way. But C6 makes that burst constellation nearly insignificant because you'll then be spamming skills, not plunges. As for that ER bonus when off field, that is also freaking stupid. Why the heck would we even want Xiao off field when catching particles? It's the same level of useless as the Defense buff.
If I were to get constellations, make one of them
"Plunge attacks will decrease enemies defense by 30%."
And the other would be
"For every enemy hit with a plunge attack, restores 2 energy to Xiao. Maximum energy restored up to 20 energy."
@@kibathefang6022 Yeah well... good thoughts but it's clear that the constellations were more hit or miss during the starting era of Genshin than currently.
Look at Albedo C4 and C6. As if Albedo would be the dedicated shielder for Xiao or something. Not to mention nearly all of Venti's constellations or Qiqi's.
I hope there's a C0 DPS showdown of them as well.
well a bit late now lmao
@@2crisp63 or you could always search from other channels tho
Can't undo C6 characters
there is if you search the internet and all of them are won by Xiao...which no surprise since he at c6 isnt really that different from c0
@@Yuzuripe need to search for channels that have relatively the same stats, though, which is harder to do.
he could also borrow someone else's account with c0 wanderer and c0 xiao, though.
Kinda crazy how Xiao with barely any useful cons (C1 just 1 dash, C6 useless in single target) can still catch up with Wanderer with many useful cons.
Yeah crazy how badly designed Xiao's constellation and gameplay are, thanks Hoyo.
Yeah crazy how xiao's constellations are comparable to standard banner character cons
@@haruyanto8085 tbh Xiao is a preety old character, but hyv loved designing him, i have read how much inspiration the Dev's took to make xiao in a dev blog
Imagine if xiao had some thought put behind his constellations.
@@ocean7790 Yeah they did some good work on character design, not so much in his kit design though.
Xiao did really well I think when you consider that he was designed around the launch of the game before Hoyo began making C6s so ridiculously OP.
That just means for dolphins and whales, Wanderer is a better option
Well if new player ask me they want anemo dps, I'd recommend Wanderer over Xiao. Why? The answer is he is easier to build. Even Lost Prayers, Widsith and Skyward are as good as his bis weapon and he is fun as hell so you can assure they will enjoy this game.
@@sunnysunday2299 i mean xiao signature literally standart weapon.
his cons are garbage, and he has at least somwhat uniqe gameplay, when scara literally yoimiya 2.0.
I have both of them, and i cant tell, that for casual overworld scara is much better, but for dungeons and abyss xiao > scara (esp at c0r1)

Well tbh, mihoyo could fix many characters like this

Oh shit, now I noticed it he have r5.
Yeah, really standard xiao build that everyone probably have.
We wish you a speedy recovery and thanks for making this video. ✨👍
Honestly surprised how well xiao did compared to a newer five star. Although let’s be honest, shintenzu is just built different.
Hoyoverse intentionally make new chars almost equal to old chars in power level so that those old char banners can still generate some revenue…
Examples: many people think Kazuha powercrept Venti. But that’s not true he his own value and still his banner generate good amounts of revenue.
lets not foget that the guys couldn t compare c0s, which we all knowthat 5/6 cons of Xiao are not even imprving his damge and c6 is conditional so in many cases we got a showcase of c0 Xiao vs higher constellations of Wanderer.
@@Kunoichi4ever4 not really. His c6 is incredible.
@@slampest he means it isn’t as big of a damage increase as wanderer’s c6
@@slampest its really average
i think my favourite part of these dps showcase/showdowns with xiao is getting to see shintenzhu play xiao so precise and efficiently its breathtaking
I love your videos man. Thanks foir putting so much effort into em! I appreciate it!
And get better soon! Much love from germany!
Xiao is AOE king while Wanderer is more versatile and better at single target, both are good but I still prefer Wanderer for the ease to slot him in many comps and the ability to deal with more enemies better
Tartag is the aoe king
@@joeltoomer3332 were not talking bout him ತ_ʖತ
@@joeltoomer3332 true, but I was comparing anemo DPS lol (tartag is everything king 🙏)

@@joeltoomer3332 no
Would love to see heizou and itto thrown into the comparison
Lol can’t set up my boy Heizo like that
Why itto?
Against C6 5 stars? No shot. If they were all C0 tho, that'd be interesting to see
@@FunkyEspelhoCat because they both have a skill nuke “itto’s cow and heizou’s punch” also probably why he said “thrown into” a well placed pun on their skills
Mono geo slaps scara
Xiao's only problem is that jumping in the game takes too damn long.
They nerfed his jumping speed, cause in beta it was faster D:
It's not about jumping speed. He's still jumping up and down very fast. And he's more of a "nuke" character, he's supposed to be somewhat "slow" since he deals such high amounts of damage with each plunge attack.
@@BulletSponge71436 very tru
duh let it be as if
It was epic to see wanderer and xiao on their full potential with exceptionally built supports, but it would be nice to see what I would be able to achieve with them as an f2p with minimal resources and decent supports
I love how after all of these showcases and DPS comparisons people still refuse to acknowledge that Wanderer is a pretty good unit smh. I don't wanna argue who is a better character between Xiao and Wanderer since they are pretty much on the same level but dang just accept that Scaramouche isn't a total dissapointment of a unit
That is... If you pay his copies
@@markjunlibrado9664 No?? There’s plenty of C0 wanderer clears already posted and he clears abyss fine. He doesn’t need cons to be usable/good. (while having overworld utility & comfort on top of that)
@@meowsymcmeow7438 brother even yanfei clears abyss fine...its just that he is not that good at c0 even zajeff stated him as 2/3rd of xiao at c0.....but yes he doesn’t need cons to be usable/good
RIGHT!! i play in raiden coop for fun and whenever i bring my (admittedly pretty bad cause i got him a few days ago and still don't have a good 4pc shimenawa) wanderer some petty mfs always decide to bring heizou or xiao to feel superior to me cause they have the "better" anemo unit. jokes on them they always end up dying and i end up carrying usually with another teammate that's a healer or buffer or something similar
Wanderer cons are huge at c0 he is so way worse than xiao and xiao himself is also mid so take that into considaration
As a Xiao main, I know Xiao will lose even before watching this. But I'm impressed how his Xiao cleared that flying chicken 👏
I think a dps showdown between C6 heizou and C0 scaramouche wouldve also been an interesting video
C6 heizou with 4p THUNDERING FURRY🤯
@@CRITRATIO Why TF? Why this set?
@@BulletSponge71436 it decreases skill cd
would be cool to see the same DPS test with C0 wanderer and C6 wanderer to show what to expect vs the Xiao.
Great video as always! Id love to see how he compares to other normal attackers like yoimiya, ayato and maybe even yelan at c6🤔
I wanted see wanderer against childe just because I wanted to see how he fares against his fellow harbinger.
Yoimiya wins all day
Yoi is the best when it comes to just gunning down everything in sight
sorry but yelan solo
Pretty sure c6 Yelan would make them eat dust lol
OMG TY SO MUCH BEEN SEARCHING FOR THIS FOR WEEKS
I've been waiting for this for so long
I would’ve liked to see a comparison between these two AND Heizou. Guessing it wouldn’t be fair to compare them since Heizou is 4 star.
Some do c0xiao, c0 wanderer with a c6 heizou i guess
i feel like wander did more damage not because it was a better build but because he can put more damage output in a smaller amount of time because he is a catalyst and his weapon boosts atk speed
Bruh I waited for this an eternity. Thanks iwtl.😊
I've watched alot of your videos and they keep getting better. You just earned yourself a Sub
Xiao still does a great job. Pretty sufficient for Spiral Abyss even nowadays. While Scaranara provides fresh gameplay and makes exploration even more enjoyable.
Ima say what Mihoyo doesnt want us to hear - they designed wanderer to be contellations dependent, unlike Xiao.
Unless you wanna wahle roll the character that is complete at c0 - Xiao.
Waiting for it 🔥♥️
I have been waiting for this
my boy Xiao still keep up even after 2 years
barely
@@batch9518 he was doing great before but now with a dedicated support he is on the same level as the current characters not everyone can deal more than 90k every hit
it shows how well hyv is at keeping genshin a balanced game

now that xiao got his dedicated buff, i think it is good idea to do itto vs xiao
YES
at c6 man it will be tough for xiao to win but at c0 that would be interesting
@@eeshu8290 well only for single target since Xiao isn’t build for single target
its already a clear win, c6 faru gives 40% anemo shred and crit dmg while gorou only gives crit dmg
@@elloygarcia8155 i wouldn't be so sure of that. While +def isn't the same as anemo shred, you still have to take in consideration Xiao Doo Doo water constellations against Itto relatively better cons
I have waited this for so long
This channel is everything thing i want in life i love your content man
2:36 I was watching this in x2 speed and Wanderer being a machine gun was funny as I've never seen him in action before 😂
Great video :3, also, it would be great if we could see a C0 showdown :)
I usually don't hype these character showdowns, but this one is soooo good!
Yea been waiting for this soo long. A true anemo boys dps battle
Xiao and Wanderer have the same dynamic as Childe and Ayato.
Both are more or less equal at damage potential at c0, but one has significantly better constellations than the other
Maybe, but because Chide and Ayato are Hydro, that changes the usefulness of the characters as supports for other dps characters. Like. Ayato is great and all, but Childe as a hydro applier can't be beat. Especially for Xiangling. Especially if you know how to play him.
He also has a random nuke burst which is always nice and riptide.
Comparing Childe and Ayato's dynamic to Xiao and Wanderer's may seem obvious enough to do, but realistically, those dynamics are completely different. And that's mostly due to the element they possess
Ayato is better due his ridiculous flexibility and support and damage buff. Also hydro. Only difference is he won’t nuke like childe at c0. Apart from childe nuke he and childe have similar dps at c0. Wanderer here is a hyper carry! Barely any support! Needs constellations. To out dps childe. Not f2p friendly
@@shachede6828 mmm. Ayato is the definition of "Jack of all trades, master of none" he's not bad at all, but he's rarely the best option. He's a good unit to sub into places if you don't have or don't want to use a specific character.
Childe by contrast has amazing teams, but isn't as flexible. Childe International vs Ayato national is a good example
Also. Childe has ridiculous icd on his hydro application
Childe to ayato is way different than xiao to wanderer
Wanderer has like, no damage output at all at c0 lol, we compared their damage output in the IWTL server and even against bosses my solo Xiao is able to one cycle the Asimon boss while wanderer with a full team can barely do it.
Every time you say "my son" it tends to hit me every time
Shintenzu is a god when it comes to Xiao. Always love seeing him, even if it makes me feel like I've only scratched the surface.
For faruzan i think her buff applies at the start of the burst and then continues even if you leave the burst radius
Why is there so much Xiao cope in the comments… Wanderer scales better with cons but most people don’t pull for cons past c2. At most it’s a play style preference at that point and since it’s genshin the difference really doesn’t matter. I chose wanderer because he’s just more comfy since his e is the source of most his damage and he’s top tier in overworld.
It's what happens when DPS characters get Powercrept, same thing happened to Diluc, Klee, Xingqiu, Sucrose, Childe mains, etc, Xiao mains were spared since he used to be the only anemo DPS. This is why in gacha games you always pull for the support/utility characters
@@haruyanto8085 it would only really make sense to be upset about power creep if they made the content too difficult to clear for older units though. Mihoyo took a firm stance against creating anything more difficult than abyss.
@@haruyanto8085 Xingqiu and Childe got powercrept? By what? Yelan and Ayato? Two characters that have similar kits to their counterparts but just so happen to be unique enough to coexist?
Diluc and Klee I agree with (Klee should have been a support). And Sucrose. She wasn't powercrept, but people like to think that she was
@@haruyanto8085 Thinking about it more I can see why it might be frustrating if you are struggling to clear content and feel like you are wasting time and resources investing in units that will have stronger counterparts down the road. However, it’s a single player game with no real competitive aspects. I think it would help people who are feeling frustrated by power creep to remember that. It makes sense for people to talk about it if it’s something they think should be fixed.
Agree with the “it’s genshin, the difference doesn’t matter.” C0 Wanderer clears just as well as Xiao, while having all the benefits on the overworld. It’s all just preference really since they’re both good, which xiao copers don’t seem to understand lol
This just exastrubates how new 5 stars have such an insane difference between c0 and c6 whereas old ones are at 90% of their power at c0
c0 xiao vs wanderer would be such an insane landslide victory for xiao , and c6 wandrer is pulling ahead so much with his 6 raw dmg constelations.
wishing u a speedy recovery soon
Thank you man! FINALLY!!!
Get well soon man!
guess ei is proud her son is better than zhongli’s son :3
A bit dissapointed about not gaving C0 showcase, I wanted C0 Scara vs C6 Heyzo, but I really enjoyed this one as well.
Especially I enjoyed how smooth gameplay for both characters was. Enjoyable runs, good representation
Your videos butter my biscuits thank you
Wanderer not being a burst reliant character easily makes him superior to many other dps characters . And he probably would be top 5 in overworld exploration. Though I do believe that xiao is still better than wanderer in many cases just because of his mid air movement . In my opinion both are pretty good characters but I like wanderer more anyway.
Just because character A got outclashed doesn't mean the B is better or A is worse. They both shine in their own ways. All characters are made as alternatives and variations, not to compete with one another.
That's what I said , both are pretty good characters but I just like wanderers gameplay more .
Wanderer has more future and value
I got my Scara to C6 and when I saw his Burst hitting for 80-90k, 5 times, I knew he was my new main DPS haha. He just attacks so fast with his normal evaporating enemies, it’s fun to see.
I’d hope he would become your new main dps considering you c6 him lol
can u make a guide on optimal rotation on wonderer? honestly don't know when it's better to dash and when it 's better to just keep attacking, and do I spam attacks or charged attacks? and how does that change when bennet or faruzan get involved and how does that change with his c1 and yeah, if u could I would be very grateful as your guides are always very thorough and helpful
Btw IWTL, I wouldn’t mind speedrunning videos of just abyss with explanation with many characters. Regardless of a showdown just the most optimal runs. It would be fun and interesting
I love this idea! It’ll be really nice to see different teams viabilities for Abyss and comments on clear speed, ease of use w/ healing/shielding/grouping/lack of dps or nuke if needed vs certain bosses, and other stuff e.g. :
- how mono geo teams fare vs elemental for this abyss cycle
- how anemo dps centric teams such as xiao/wanderer/heizou fare vs others
- dendro and its hyperbloom/bloom/nilou bloom/quicken/aggravate/burgeon or burning teams fare
- physical teams such as eula/razor (i think there’s only those two tbh lmao) and obv their best team setups to optimize their run
- Morgana vs traditional elemental reactions team like melt, HuTao vape, Yoimiya vape
but I understand it’s difficult to cover all these different teams every Abyss cycle :’(
I would’ve honestly loved to see a c6 showdown between all normal attack based dps
I want to see a dps showdown between mother and son.
Always forget how wild whale damge is had to rewind the first Regisvine test because I blinked and missed most of it
Really like your videos very helpful
Wanderer might have one of t he strongest constellations no? Nuke Potential burst and an extra attack with c6.
So... Where C6 Nahida DPS showdown? I think it would be really cool to see how she does against Yelan, who has a similar C6. It could also be great to test their support as well.
C6 Yelan is still gonna win, C6 Nahida's attacks are too slow, but yeah I'd like to see where C6 Yelan stands
Also, Nahida said it herself. She sucks at combat. Great support, but she ain't winning no fights playing hopscotch with the enemy
C6 Yelan is literally God, easily the most OP in all of Genshin. She will likely be the #1 forever too if they keep making balanced characters.
@@joshuamiller4227 Keyword: C6. Nahida easily does 100k+ normals with C6 not to mention her E doing a ton of damage too
not to mention Nahida TKP larger AoE up to 5 targets i think? and because genshin is team based as well id love to see the clear times with their best teams
Nice to see how optimized rotation
I wanna see the comparation between c0 wanderer and c6 heizou, both of them is catalyst user, I think this is completely comparable.
I got c2 wanderer but I'd love to get Xiao.
Wanderer slays
I would like to see this on both characters at C0. Would be more relatable to everybody.
I'd love to see tartag return to DPS showdown with all the new dendro reactions :)
I just got scaramouche and really enjoyed him lately. But nothing beats my Xiao. He's easily the most satisfying character I've ever played plus he's has one of the best designs imo
Theres a point in damage where Regisvines should not be used as test subjects. Its more about who "bursts faster" in rotation than who has the best potential.
That said people that said Xiao lost for his constellations keep not understanding Xiao's flaws. The damage boost in this showcase came mostly from *the supports*
The only constellation that really boosts Wanderer's damage considerably is C6 for a higher constant dps potential. C2 is good but is used to end a rotation a bit faster, its not the main point of his kit.
So if both were C1, would Xiao have won some of the "burst" categories in the showdown? Yes, but on sustained dps he would be pretty much *equal* to Wanderer once you get rid of the Aoe issues that both have and supports/speedrun scenarios trivialize.
To really get an idea of how good each one is you need lesser supports (on the level of an average player instead of leviathans) and then put them against one big single target and a boss followed by a bunch of mobs of different qualities right after.
With that scenario Wanderer would win the first one and be tied to Xiao in the second, and this counting them at C0-C1, making Wanderer the winner regardless.
Xiao's loss doesnt come from constellations, it comes from his locked rotation that flows unnaturally unless he kills the things in a single one, which is what cracked supports help you do.
Get better soon, hope your lil sprout is getting a big immunity boost and feels ok!
well we got prove now with Nahida and Wanderer that catalyst users can be strong, especially with their range advantage, hyv just need to make a good kit. Also, YES for c0 comparison
From what I heard xiao performs better comparatively at c0 but falls behind when constellation are factored in especially C2 and above
cuz Xiao costellations are trash except c6 and c1
@@SkillfulCurve honestly, even Xiao's C6 is not that amazing. especially since it's the reason why he can't produce particles during his Q, unlike Itto who can self battery a bit

Nice video. Can you show your Bennett, Faruzan and Jean build? I have a C4 Jean and I want to use a team comp like yours
Finally, im waiting this🥹🫶
I believe you can do 15% more damage with wanderer, if you dash after every 2nd attack??
Just saying, but xiao's runs feel like they're a lot more skill oriented than wanderers...
Personally, I think the most impressive part here is keeping both xiao and wanderer alive throughout the abyss run... They're both very squishy, especially wanderer
I always felt the same. A lot of people complain about Xiao gameplay, when they don't realize that jump+plunge can be used very skillfully through timing in order to dodge attacks, which makes the Experience that much more enjoyable.
As for the Wanderer, unfortunately being unable to freely dash in the air makes him appear less "skillfull" since you want to keep those point to extend dps
@@insertgenerichannelname At C1 your free dash passive activates more often. He looks pretty good in the right hand tho, I have seen a lot players who don't ignore his passive they can literally reposition themselves constantly without getting hit
@@insertgenerichannelname His A4 is ignored so much.
It exists for a reason. A free sprint in air every 4-5 Attacks tho requires skill to handle, can prove really useful
@@haseebbarya8294 that's true, it helps, but when I first commented I was already taking that in consideration.
It takes skill to dash at the right moment, that's true, but it still feels a bit bad to be limited that much to the point that it's just better to get a shielder for the sake of dps.
Don't get me wrong, Xiao also has a bit of that issue (though I consider every jump a long window for him to be "invulnerable") but not as much as the Wanderer, at least that's how it felt for my first 2 weeks using him.
jump and left click jump and left click jump and left click jump and left click jump and left click jump and left click jump and left click
I need that Faruha C6 / Jean C4 support Comparison IWTL
I have been waiting
And this comment section, my friends, is called Copium
This is an amazing prove of how character constellations are getting better over time. They are just thirsty for cash. Thats for sure. Thanks for showing this
It really doesnt matter about the amount of damage the dps can do. The most important thing to do is have fun
Nice video. Outside of damage though, Wanderer definitely wins 100%.
He can FLY, which is very useful on horizontal distances without ground, like the top of mountain areas, over water, etc. Only he can reliably cross those distances. Also has the highest vertical flight of any character.
He also has the fastest dash for exploration, albeit having a slightly shorter duration than Yelan’s skill. But he still wins because its cd is just 6s over Yelan’s 10s.
He has low CD and is not burst-dependent, which is the best design for any character in the overworld. No need to wait for burst cd and energy when fighting just hilichurls lol. Plus his NAs are homing!
Literally the best & most fun overworld character, no one else comes close
He's also en extremely mobile catalys. Im sure it's just a matter of time for people to get used to his playstyle. People are probably are not used to him yet because its been a while since the last time we got on-field catalyst dps (excluding C6 Nahida)
@@nightday2030 and the fact Wanderer is more accessible then C6 Nahida.
But, why do you need c6 nahida?
oh... you were talking about c6 wanderer.
@@jimmyrq1382 he talk about Catalyst on-field Dps, which is impossible for Nahida unless she’s c6. While Wanderer can do it at c0.
Before watching this, I have both of them and Xiao is better for my playstyle so I like him more
Great video as always, I just wish you add C0 comparison with 4 star weapon even if it is just the math and not showcase
I just got C6 Faruzan after 235 pull and my c0 r1 Xiao can now plunge for 100k which is cool and my Wanderer hit 20-25k/normal but he is still only at all lvl 6 talent while my Xiao is crowned. Honestly I like Wanderer more cuz I find his playstyle more fun and he is not tied to his energy so he is more flexible in all content but on AOE and some tough enemy Xiao is better so that's that
I wanted a c0 comparison between both but still great vid.
I mean its obviously the new/recent released characters C6(except recently added to standard banner tighnari) are million times better than Old released C6 characters. But the real fair showdown at their C0. C1 are okay but new recent characters gain huge dmg increase from C2. In this showdown I mean in single target it will be almost like Xiao C1/C5 vs C6 wanderer lmao
That's not true, Hu Tao, Itto, Eula, Raiden, Ayaka, Kokomi, Ganyu, Ayato, Childe etc are as good/better or on par as new characters, the only recently new characters that are better without a doubt is Nahida, Yelan and Nilou.
@@haruyanto8085 C0 yes they are comparable. But Constellations wise the value of every Constellations and C6 are like day and night. What i mean new/recent released characters more like start from kazuha/ayaka release or should i say from inazuma characters released. Characters Constellations starting from inazuma release are broken. Pre eula Constellations are still not that great but C6 eula is where they starting to made Constellations are more broken/more value than previous characters Constellations. Even raiden C2 maybe looks better than some C6 pre eula characters. I think the only too far broken C6 are come from inazuma characters. And i feel after sumeru characters release they tried to tuned it down to be not too broken. So far all C0 are safe and balanced but there is one broken characters that not the E or Q or Constellations that makes her literally broken but only from the passives, that character is nilou. The bloom as main source of damage that can Quadratic scaling literally with no cooldown from the passives(bountiful core) just trigger elemental reaction bloom and deal at least 20 ~ 30 k minimum if well build and it fast. Imagine ayaka her burst as main source damage without cooldown or energy she just spam it, that is nilou bountiful core bloom passive looks like lmao. And her team just as you mentioned are better characters are nilou, yelan, nahida and the last piece is kokomi who people thought at first she was bad lmao. Kokomi hoyo favoritism is real here from Artifacts, monster designed for her and now the perfect broken team and with low investment for her. And some tier list still think nilou is not top tier lmao. She literally can fight any elements monsters. No restriction besides single target condition that will makes her balance lmao
still love wanderers playstyle, huge damage or not he is very much capable of dealing consistent and fast damage compared to xiao, overall i just prefer wanderer cuz he fits my playstyle 🤷♂
ITZ FINALY HEREEEEE
If told they design new characters along with new abyss runs people didn't believe, having Sumeru characters improve performance in current abyss a lot in not a few scenario
Much appreciated, this video is really revealing
So many xiao mains here hahaha cant accept Wanderer is wayyyy better lol 😅
At c6 yeah
missed opportunity to say "Xiaodown" instead of "showdown"
Xiaodown xiaoup xiaodown xiaoup xiaodown xiaoup xiaodown xiaoup
@@nexuhs. Xiaoneutral!
Wait that's just Hutao..
I feel like the 2.3 abyss is made for Wanderer, and Yoimiya, it has bosses with huge amounts of hp which both can take out with ease.
Xiao as we know is an AOE character, so he wouldn’t do so well against bosses, unlike Wanderer, but I think since he’s rerunning in 3.4 the abyss may be more friendly for him, Hu tao, Yelan, and AlHaitham.
