Xian Yun – Five Star Anemo Catalyst Genshin Impact, which should be released together with patch 4.4. Known to many as the Guardian of the Clouds, Xian Yun allows other heroes to perform attacks while falling, healing the entire team and allowing them to explore the world in comfort. This article contains all known information about the heroine’s talents, zodiac signs and means of leveling, and also prepares preliminary builds.

Xian Yun is an enlightened adept of Li Yue. She is popularly known as the Guardian of the Clouds. No one can compete with her in the art of mechanics and in the creation of unusual devices. Becoming interested in ordinary life and human cooking, she settled among people under an assumed name.

At this point, almost all of the heroine’s active and passive skills are known. But closer to release, this data may change.

Word of wind and flower — the heroine makes up to four attacks using a cluster of swirling winds and deals damage to Anemo. When charged, she uses a certain amount of stamina and creates a wind ring that deals wind damage to all enemies along the way. When falling while falling, Xian Yun absorbs the power of the wind element and quickly descends to the ground, attacking all opponents in an area.

White Clouds at Sunrise (Elementary Skill) — The Guardian of the Clouds enters a special state “Transformations of clouds”in which he doesn’t lose health from falling and uses the ability “Heavenly Stairs”.

While the effect lasts, when the heroine falls, the attack changes appearance and deals additional Anemo damage to the area, as well as ending the “Transformations of clouds”.

White feather in the good wind — when performing a special attack while falling while the ability is active “White Clouds at Dawn”Xian Yun grants all allies one level of Feather in the Wind for 20 seconds. This effect stacks up to four times and increases the chance of critical. attacks affected in autumn by 4-10%.

Crane shape — increases the flying speed of all team members by 15%.

Adept in his abode — “Plexus of Stars” with activated “Support of the Adepts” Increases trap attack damage by 180% based on Xian Yun’s maximum attack power. The buff for this damage cannot exceed 9000. The effect activates every 0.4 seconds.

Heavenly Ladder (Elemental Skill) – is activated both from the ground and in the air. Xian Yun jumps quickly and attacks enemies along the way. During the Cloud Transformation state, the Sky Ladder can be used up to three times.

Twilight plexus of stars (elemental explosion) – creates a divine wind that deals damage to enemies while simultaneously restoring the HP of all allies on the team, depending on the Guardian of the Clouds’ own attack power. Furthermore, Xian Yun invokes a mechanism of his own production: “Plexus of Stars

Plexus of stars (elemental explosion) – a bird-shaped mechanism follows the active hero and continuously restores the health of him and all the heroine’s teammates. The device has eight levels of “Adept Support”. While this effect is active, Cloud Keeper’s allies’ jump height increases, allowing heroes to attack more powerfully while falling. With each attack, Tangle of Stars loses one level.

Wind of purification — Increases the number of skill charges “White clouds at sunrise” by 1.

Separated from the world — If activated ““Heavenly Stairs” then Xian Yun’s attack power will increase by 20% for 15 seconds. Passive talent Adept in his abode receives a buff: the fall attack shockwave damage will increase by 360% of Xian Yun’s attack power. The maximum damage cannot exceed 18,000.

Creations of the Star and the Moon – increases the level of the Twilight Plexus of Stars skill by 3 units (maximum – up to 15).

Mysterious pearl millet – Performing a falling attack during the Cloud Transformation condition heals all team members for 50%/80%/150% of Xian Yun’s attack power. This effect can occur every 5 seconds and the health percentage depends on the number of times the Sky Ladder ability is used.

Riding on the clouds – increases skill level “White clouds at sunrise» per 3 units (maximum 15).

Spirit of the Guardian of the Clouds – once Xian Yun”Heavenly Stairs” critical once, twice or three times. damage from fall attack “Transformations of clouds” will increase by 15%/35%/70%. After eight activations”White clouds at sunrise” the effect will disappear.

Best Zodiac Signs: C1, C2 and C6. The last const can be disabled if you want to rally Xian Yun as the main damage dealer.

Items for upgrading the Guardian of the Clouds are already known, but most of them can be collected in a new area – in the Chenyu village, which will become available with the release of patch 4.4.

Cloud armor – a resource obtained from the daily boss Suanni the Hermit. It will appear in the next update

Pure water jasper – a curiosity of Chenyu village. A cluster of light green crystals.

Vayuda turquoise shards, fragments, chunks and gems – materials removed from daily (such as Anemo Hypostasis or Magu Kenki) and weekly bosses (Dvalin and Seki no Kami).

Scrolls of seal, divine magic and forbidden curse – items obtained after defeating the Shamachurls.

Teachings, Guidelines and Philosophies on “Gold” – these books are obtained in Taishanfu Dungeon in Wednesday, Saturday and Sunday.

Dark eye of the Vortex – resource of the all-consuming narwhal.

Now it is difficult to say for sure which weapons and artifacts are most suitable for Xian Yun, but by looking at the heroine’s skills, you can choose options that will best reveal her strengths.

The loud call of a crane – a signature weapon for Xian Yun, suitable for her in any position. This catalyst, due to its passive, not only amplifies attacks when characters fall, but also restores the energy of the Guardian of the Clouds itself, which is very important. Thanks to the attack power in the extra attributes, the heroine can also effectively heal the entire squad.

Celestial Atlas – a less effective five-star weapon that Xian Yun only needs because of its attack power in its stats. You can equip this catalyst if the heroine’s need for high energy recovery is covered, otherwise a lower rarity weapon will be more useful.

Eye of the oath – unfortunately this event catalyst cannot be obtained now. However, owners of the Eye can safely place it on the Guardian of the Clouds. With its help, the heroine will be able to ult as many times as possible, but it is the explosion of the elements that is most relevant to her. In addition, the weapon’s passive will additionally replenish energy units.

Codex Favonius – a more budget version of the Eye of the Oath, which performs almost the same functions – it pours a large amount of energy and allows Xian Yun to ult almost on cooldown, allowing the heroine to buffer attacks while falling.

Hakushin ring – the great thing is that you can make it yourself in a forge. It also focuses on energy recovery, but the passive catalyst is no longer as good as it requires Electro characters on the team. Without them, the passive weapon simply will not work.

Royal Grimoire – one of many epic catalysts for attack power. However, the grimoire can be useful because of a good passive that increases critical. chance of the heroine’s normal attacks. This event weapon can be placed on Xian Yun in the sub-damage position.

Emerald green shade – a fairly universal set of artifacts for Anemo supports. He will fit well against the Guardian of the Clouds as a healer or as a secondary damage dealer. However, when equipping the Emerald Shadow, keep in mind that the team must have characters of the Pyro, Electro or Cryo element, which activate the spread.

Ceremony of the ancient nobility — another great set for Xian Yun, in the role of an ult procaster. This set not only increases the damage from the heroine’s elemental blast, but also increases the attack power of allies. One of the advantages of this combination is that it is easy to obtain, as pieces of these artifacts usually drop from bosses.

Song from a bygone era — this set is suitable for the Guardian of the Clouds in the healer position. It will help improve the heroine’s healing and slightly increase the heroine’s own damage.

In combination with the above artifacts, you can also use other sets for attack power: The end of the gladiator, echoes of sacrifice, the afterlife of Cinnabar.

Guardian of the Clouds is a support for heroes who play against attacks while falling. However, thanks to Xian Yun’s talents, any hero can perform these attacks. The heroine is also good for those who need a strong healer.

Ciao – currently Anemo the spearman is the only one whose mechanics focus on attacking while falling. Essentially, Xian Yun is a personal support for Xiao, who will not only significantly increase his damage output but also be able to replenish the adept’s constantly draining HP.

Hearth – there isn’t much information yet about the new epic character that will appear in patch 4.4. However, he is also expected to use trap attacks to deal damage. In this case, Li Yue’s hero needs Xian Yun for support.

Furina — Hydro Archon may not use “dragonstrike” (falling attack), but he will drain the health of everyone on the team during an elemental skill. Xian Yun will help you recover HP quickly. Together with Furina, the heroines form a good synergy.

Diluc – Of all the characters, it is the distillery owner Dawn who takes the highest attack damage when falling (besides Xiao). Previously, players tried to use cunning to make a “dragon attack” on him, but thanks to the Guardian of the Clouds it will be possible to maximally reveal this strong side of Diluc.

In general, trap attacks deal more damage than regular attacks, so other heroes, such as two-handers, catalysts, and spearmen, can be potential allies for Xian Yun.

You can disable the Keeper of the Clouds in the first phase of patch 4.4. The banner with her participation will be available from January 31 to February 20.
