Genshin Impact Leaked Details Hint at Xilonen’s Game-Changing Abilities

Recent leaks suggest that Xilonen might be the next game-changing support character in Genshin Impact. Her anticipated second Constellation could significantly impact the game’s meta, much like Alhaitham did for Sumeru and Neuvillette for Fontaine. As Xilonen’s release in Version 5.1 approaches, expected on October 9, 2024, speculation is rife about her potential to transform team dynamics.

Xilonen’s abilities are rumored to revolve around elemental jewels that provide various buffs based on the elemental type of her teammates. While any Geo, Dendro, or Anemo users will keep the gem in its original state, Xilonen’s second Constellation is where her true power may lie. This Constellation is said to grant additional attribute bonuses to her allies, tailored to their elemental types, enhancing their effectiveness in battle.

According to leaks from Genshin Leakflow shared on Reddit, here’s what Xilonen’s second Constellation could offer:

- Pyro: 40% increased ATK

- Hydro:40% increased HP

- Cryo:50% increased CRIT DMG

- Electro:20% Energy Recharge and 5% Cooldown Reduction

- Geo:30% increased CRIT RATE

These bonuses are rumored to apply individually to each teammate rather than affecting the whole team, which may limit their impact on Dendro and Anemo characters, both of which are currently strong. However, Xilonen’s ability to also provide Elemental Shred positions her as a potent offensive option alongside Zhongli.

While early leaks should be approached with caution, the consistent praise for Xilonen from various sources suggests she could be a worthwhile addition to any team. Her potential to revitalize the Geo playstyle and complement characters like Navia and Chiori makes her a character to watch closely. As always, players should stay vigilant with their Primogem expenditures, as Xilonen’s arrival could bring significant shifts in gameplay strategies.
