Xilonen is a 5-Star character who is expected to be added in Genshin Impact Version 5.1. She is a Geo Sword user with exceptional flexibility as a support character. Based on leaked information, she has the potential to surpass both Kazuha and Furina in terms of utility. To help players understand why she has generated so much excitement, we will take a closer look at Xilonen’s kit and abilities. Here is everything we know about Xilonen in Genshin Impact so far.

Xilonen’s Appearance and Story in Genshin Impact

Xilonen is portrayed as an adult woman from the region of Natlan. She is widely known throughout Natlan for her extraordinary skills as a blacksmith. Many people travel from distant places to pay tribute to her craftsmanship. Some hope to commission her to forge powerful weapons, while others simply wish to catch a glimpse of the legendary smith herself, believing they may gain an interesting story to tell afterward.

However, Xilonen pays little attention to what her customers think of her. No matter how many grand or extravagant titles people bestow upon her, she sees herself first and foremost as a craftsman. Her job is simple: refine ore and steadily forge it into its final form, hammer strike after hammer strike, according to the needs of her clients.

Fame does not strengthen the blow of her hammer upon the anvil, and criticism does not cool the flames of her furnace. Yet when customers step into her workshop, they are not greeted by the heat of the forge. Instead, they are handed a lengthy form filled with blanks that must be completed before any work can begin.

Xilonen’s Skill Kit

Normal Attack – Ehecatl’s Roar

By tapping the Normal Attack button, Xilonen performs up to three rapid strikes. Holding the attack button consumes stamina, allowing her to launch a forward kick.

Like most plunging attacks, Xilonen strikes the ground below, dealing Area of Effect (AoE) damage upon impact and damaging enemies along her descent. The damage scales based on Xilonen’s Defense stat.

Nightsoul’s Blessing – Blade Roller

While under the Nightsoul’s Blessing state, Xilonen enters Blade Roller mode.

In this mode, her Normal Attacks allow her to unleash up to four roller-blade kicks. However, she loses access to charged attacks. Her Normal and Plunging Attacks are converted into Defense-scaling attacks that deal Geo Damage and cannot be infused with other elements.

Elemental Skill – Yohual’s Scratch

Xilonen switches into high-speed combat gear and dashes forward a certain distance, dealing Nightsoul-aligned Geo Damage based on her Defense.

After using this skill, Xilonen gains 45 Nightsoul points and enters the Nightsoul’s Blessing state. While in this state, she automatically switches into Blade Roller mode.

The skill information above is based on leaks and may be subject to change before the character’s official release.

Expected Release Date

Xilonen is expected to arrive in Genshin Impact Version 5.1. Based on the current update schedule, Version 5.1 is likely to be released in early October 2024. Although there has been no official confirmation from Genshin Impact yet, leakers have already uncovered several pieces of data regarding the character.
