If you want to get a certain limited five-star character like Xilonen inGenshin Impact, you’ll have to save your Primogems for quite a long time. Once you get these characters, the first step after that is to equip one of the synergistic weapons on them depending on their play style and type of weapon choice.
For Xilonen, this choice is a Sword. Thankfully, apart from being one of the best supports in the game, she’s also quite flexible in her weapon choices since you have plenty of options for both of her main play styles.
7Harbinger Of Dawn
Three Star
If you’ve been playing Genshin Impact for a good amount of time, you may skip over this entry since you’ll likely have a better option. However, if you’re relatively new to the game,Harbinger of Dawncan be a great weapon to use on Xilonen if you’re planning to use her as a DPS.
Using Xilonen as a DPS requires you to haveat most one party member from the Pyro, Cryo, Electro, and Hydro elementscumulatively.
It gives a respectable 46.9 percent Crit DMG once fully ascended and an additional 28 percent Crit Rate with the maximum Refinement, which is easy to get on a three-star weapon. Combined with the Obsidian Codex artifact set, this will already allow you to start dealing consistent Crit hits even during the early game.
6Xiphos' Moonlight
Four Star
From one type of build to another,Xiphos' Moonlightcan be a decent choice forXilonen’s support buildif you don’t have any other choice. Firstly, it gives you up to 165 Elemental Mastery, which might not be as good on Xilonen since it only increases the tankiness of her Crystallize shield, which her team doesn’t need due to her constant healing.
However, the passive is what you’re really after as it increases her Energy Recharge based on her Elemental Mastery. The best part about it is that your party members can also enjoy 30 percent of this Energy Recharge buff, which is great if you’re using her in a team where you need to trigger Bursts constantly.
5Flute Of Ezpitzal
Four Star Craftable
The weapons mentioned on this list so far only supported one of Xilonen’s play styles. This changes with theFlute of Ezpitzalas this is the best F2P-friendly choice you’ll get for both play styles. You can get this weapon by buying its blueprint from the Blacksmith in Natlan and then crafting it with the required materials.
On refinement five, this weapon can give you a whopping 101 percent extra DEF after using your Elemental Skill, which is more than you’ll get from most other choices. The lack of Crit on it doesn’t matter a lot since Obsidian Codex already gives you a ton for DPS Xilonen.
4Uraku Misugiri
Limited Five Star
If you want to getUraku Misugiriin Genshin Impact, you’ll have to pull on the weapon banner whenChiori is one of the featured characterson it, and it can take up to 160 pulls for you to get it. However, this will be one of your best choices for DPS Xilonen as it gives her a whopping 88.2 percent Crit DMG as the secondary stat.
Moreover, your Normal Attack DMG can be increased by 16 percent, which doubles when Xilonen or another party member deals Geo DMG. You can also get an extra 20 percent DEF from it to go along with the rest of the buffs.
3Mistsplitter Reforged
From one limited five-star weapon to another,Mistsplitter Reforgedcan only be acquired on the weapon bannerduring Kamisato Ayaka’s rerun. The Crit DMG provided by this weapon is a little lower, capping at 44.1 percent at the maximum level. However, it provides Xilonen with a 12 percent Elemental DMG Bonus as soon as you place it on her.
You can also add an extra 28 percent bonus to this when you deal Geo DMG on a Normal Attack and use your Elemental Burst. This weapon is also much more flexible than Uraku Misugiri and can be used on various other characters, which makes it a better choice out of the two.
2Freedom-Sworn
After reading Xilonen’s kit, it might be enticing to build her as a DPS. However, there’s no denying the fact that her support build is the better one since she can provide 36 percent RES shred, 40 percent Elemental DMG Bonus, and healing to the active character with it.
To add onto all of this,Freedom-Swornallows her to provide extra ATK and Normal/Charged/Plunging attack DMG to the party. It also gives her some Elemental Mastery that makes the shield from her Crystallize a little tankier. If you don’t have Xilonen’s signature weapon, you can easily equip this one on her for great value.
1Peak Patrol Song
Xilonen’s Signature
Unsurprisingly, Xilonen’s signature weapon tops the list of her best weapon choices. This is also the only weapon that comes close to the DEF provided by Flute of Ezpitzal once you fully level it up and perform a couple of basic attacks on the enemy. This sword is great on Xilonen for both her play styles.
For the DPS play style, it provides her up to 20 percent Elemental DMG Bonus. On the other hand, it provides up to 25.6 percent Elemental DMG Bonus to the entire party after triggering two of her basic attacks for 15 seconds for the support build.
