Xilonen is a 5-Star Geo character who was added to Genshin Impact during version 5.1.

While Xilonen features as the boosted 5-Star character on her Forgefire's Blessing Banner in version 5.1, she will eventually return to Genshin Impact at some point in the future when the Banner schedule cycles back to her.

If you want to prepare for her, we've listed Xilonen's Ascension materials and Talent materials so you can level her up to her full potential right away. To understand how you might play her, we've also detailed Xilonen's kit and Constellations.

Xilonen kit

Xilonen is a 5-Star Geo character who uses a sword, and keeping in mind that all of the percentages mentioned below are based on Level 1 Skills, here's a summary of Xilonen's kit in Genshin Impact: .

  • Element: Geo.
  • Rarity: 5-Star.
  • Weapon: Sword.
  • Cropped splash art of Xilonen from Genshin Impact.

  • Normal Attack: Ehecatl's Roar.
  • Elemental Skill: Yohual's Scratch.
  • Elemental Burst: Ocelotlicue Point!.
  • Passive one: Night Realm's Gift: Blessing of Forge-Fire - After her Nightsoul points are fully depleted, Xilonen will switch to consuming Phlogiston to maintain her Nightsoul's Blessing. While in an area with Phlogiston Mechanics within Natlan, she can use Nightsoul Transmission: Xilonen. When the active character is currently sprinting, climbing, in a movement mode caused by certain Talents, or at a certain height in the air, the following will trigger when switching to Xilonen: Xilonen will enter the Nightsoul's Blessing state and gain 20 Nightsoul points. In this situation, Xilonen's Nightsoul points have a 4 second time limit, after which her Nightsoul points will immediately expire. After she uses Yohual's Scratch within this time limit, her Nightsoul point time limit will be extended by 9 seconds. Nightsoul Transmission can be triggered once every 10 seconds by your own team. Additionally, while in Natlan, Xilonen will not consume Stamina when climbing while in the Nightsoul's Blessing state.
  • Passive two: Netotiliztli's Echoes - While in her Nightsoul's Blessing state:
    • If Xilonen has at least two Source Samples that have had their Elemental Types changed, she gains 35 Nightsoul points when her normal or plunging attacks hit opponents. Can be triggered once every 0.1 seconds.
    • If Xilonen has fewer than two Source Samples that have had their Elemental Types changed, her normal and plunging attacks deal 30% increased damage.
  • Passive three: Portable Armored Sheath - While in the Nightsoul's Blessing state, when Xilonen's Nightsoul points reach the maximum, she will trigger an effect equal to that of her Nightsoul Burst. This effect can be triggered once every 14 seconds. Additionally, when nearby party members trigger a Nightsoul Burst, Xilonen's defence is increased by 20% for 15 seconds.

Xilonen Normal Attack - Ehecatl's Roar

Xilonen performs up to three rapid strikes if tapping the normal attack button. Holding it down instead makes Xilonen consume stamina to perform a forward kick.

As with most plunging attacks, Xilonen strikes the ground below dealing AOE (Area of Effect) damage upon impact, and damaging any enemies caught on her path to the ground, with damaged scaled from Xilonen's defence stat.

Nightsoul's Blessing - Blade Roller:

When in the Nightsoul's Blessing state, Xilonen will enter the Blade Roller mode. While in this mode, Xilonen's normal attacks will allow her to perform up to 4 kicks using her roller blades, but she will be unable to use charged attacks. When her normal and plunging attacks are used in this mode, they will switch to being based on her defence, and Xilonen will deal Nightsoul-aligned Geo Damage that can't be overridden.

Xilonen Elemental Skill - Yohual's Scratch

Xilonen switches to high-speed combat blading gear and rushes forward a certain distance before dealing Nightsoul-aligned Geo Damage based on her defence. After using this, Xilonen will gain 45 Nightsoul points and enter the Nightsoul's Blessing state. In this state, she will shift to the Blade Roller mode.

Source Samples

Xilonen has three Samplers with her that can generate different Soundscapes based on her other party members' Elemental Types, decreasing nearby opponents' corresponding Elemental Resistance while active.

The initial recorded Source Sample within each Sampler will be Geo, and for each party member who is Pyro, Hydro, Cryo, or Electro, one Geo Sample will change to that corresponding Element.

While Xilonen is in the Nightsoul's Blessing state, the Geo Source Sample she carries will always be active. After unlocking her Passive Talent, 'Netotiliztli's Echoes', Xilonen can trigger said Passive Talent's effects to regenerate Nightsoul points for herself. When her Nightsoul points hit the maximum, she will consume all her Nightsoul points and activate the three Source Samples she has on hand for 15 seconds.

When the Source Samples are active, nearby opponents' corresponding Elemental Resistance will decrease. Source Sample effects of the same Elemental Type cannot stack. Xilonen can trigger these effects even when off-field.

Nightsoul's Blessing: Xilonen

Xilonen continuously consumes Nightsoul points. When these points are depleted or if used again, this Nightsoul's Blessing state will end. This state has the following traits

  • Xilonen switches to the Blade Roller mode, increasing her Movement Speed and climbing speed, and she can perform high-speed leaps in Ocelot Form while climbing.
  • Xilonen's Nightsoul's Blessing has the following restrictions: When in this state, Xilonen's Nightsoul points have a 9 second time limit. After this limit passes, her Nightsoul points will immediately expire.

After Xilonen's Nightsoul points have expired while she is in the Nightsoul's Blessing state, she will no longer be able to generate Nightsoul points via the Passive Talent 'Netotiliztli's Echoes'.

Xilonen Elemental Burst - Ocelotlicue Point!

Xilonen activates the Phlogiston Stereo DJ Controller (Portable) at full power, dealing Nightsoul-aligned AOE Geo Damage based on Xilonen's Defence.

Additionally, Xilonen will trigger the following effects based on her different Source Samples:

  • If she has at least two Source Samples that have had their Elemental Types changed, Xilonen will play an Ebullient rhythm, healing nearby active characters at intervals based on her Defence.
  • If she has fewer than two Source Samples that have had their Elemental Types changed, Xilonen will start up an Ardent rhythm, which will play two additional beats that deal Nightsoul-aligned AOE Geo Damage based on her Defence.

Just like Talents, you need to use Xilonen Ascension materials to upgrade her health, attack, defence, and critical hit effectiveness.

You'll need to farm a lot of Brilliant Chrysanthemum and Whistle materials for Xilonen (if you don't already have them) to fully upgrade her capabilities.

Unlike Talent materials, you only need to spend the below Ascension materials once to fully raise Xilonen to her highest character level. There is also Acquaint Fate rewarded for reaching certain Ascension levels. You can spend this Fate on the standard and beginner Banners to Wish for characters and weapons.

Here's what Xilonen Ascension materials and Mora you need to upgrade her for each Ascension level:

Here are all of Xilonen's Constellations in Genshin Impact:

  • Sabbatical Phrase (C1): Xilonen's Nightsoul point and Phlogiston consumption in her Nightsoul's Blessing state is decreased by 30%, and her Nightsoul point time limit is extended by 45%. Additionally, when Xilonen's Source Samples are active, she can also increase nearby active characters' interruption resistance.
  • Chiucue Mix (C2): Xilonen's Geo Source Samples will always remain active. Additionally, when her Source Samples activate, all nearby party members will gain effects corresponding to the active Source Sample that matches their Elemental Type:
    • Geo: Damage dealt +50%
    • Pyro: Attack +45%
    • Hydro: Max HP +45%
    • Cryo: Crit Damage +60%
    • Electro: Restore 25 Energy, and decrease Elemental Burst cooldown by 6 seconds.
  • Tonalpohualli's Loop (C3): Increases the Level of Xilonen's Elemental Skill by three, with a maximum upgrade level of 15.
  • Suchitl's Trance (C4): After Xilonen uses Yohual's Scratch, she will grant all nearby party members the Blooming Blessing effect for 15 seconds. Characters with Blooming Blessing deal 65% of Xilonen's Defence as increased normal, charged, and plunging attack damage. This effect will be removed after triggering six times or when the duration ends. When you hit more than one opponent, trigger counts will be consumed based on the number of opponents hit. The counts for each party member with Blooming Blessing are counted independently.
  • Tlaltecuhtli's Crossfade (C5): Increases the Level of Xilonen's Elemental Burst by three, with a maximum upgrade level of 15.
  • Imperishable Night Carnival (C6): When Xilonen is in the Nightsoul's Blessing state, when she sprints, leaps, or uses Normal or Plunging Attacks, she will gain Imperishable Night's Blessing, ignoring the limitations of her Nightsoul's Blessing state and increasing the damage dealt by her normal and plunging attacks for 5 seconds. During this time:
    • Xilonen's Nightsoul's Blessing time limit countdown will be paused. Here Nightsoul points, Phlogiston, and Stamina will not decrease, and when her Nightsoul points reach the maximum, her Nightsoul's Blessing state will not end either.
    • Xilonen deals 300% of her Defence as increased normal and plunging attack damage while in the Nightsoul's Blessing state.
    • She heals nearby party members for 120% of her defence every 1.5 seconds.
    Xilonen can gain one Imperishable Night's Blessing once every 15 seconds.

Good luck levelling up Xilonen in Genshin Impact!
