However to max Nightsoul Points which cannot be done when there are less than 2 Pyro/Hydro/Electro/Cryo characters in the team. When not activated, only Geo Resistance shred will activate.

Elemental Burst Healing Is Excellent At Keeping The Team Alive

The healing scales from Xilonen's DEF and has high scalings. The healing has multiple ticks allowing you to sustain the team easily. This allows Xilonen to be a debuffer and a healer for various teams.

Amazing With Natlan Characters Because Of Nightsoul Burst

What Is Nightsoul Burst?	- Happens when there is a Natlan character in the team. - In itself, it does not have damage. - Shortens the cooldown when you have multiple Natlan characters. └1/2/3 characters is to 18s/12s/9s
Portable Armored Sheath	- When Nightoul Points is maxed, Nightsoul Burst will trigger once. 　└Activates every 14 seconds. - When Nightsoul Burst activate, Xilonen's DEF is increased by 20%. 　└Lasts for 15 seconds.

Upon maxing out Xilonen's Nightsoul Points, a Nightsoul Burst will occur. This allows you to ignore the cooldown and additionally trigger Nightsoul Burst. This will greatly boost the damage of Natlan Characters which mostly get buff from the effect of Nightsoul Burst. This will also increase the Defense of Xilonen.

When There Is Only 1 Pyro / Cryo / Hydro / Electro Characters, Xilonen Can Be A Main DPS

When there are less than 1 Pyro / Cryo / Hydro / Electro on the field, the effect of Nightsoul Blessings and Nightsoul Burst focuses more on Xilonen's damage. Since Xilonen scales from DEF, she can be used in Geo comps with Gorou as a Main Attacker.

Xilonen As An On-Field Attacker
★ Elemental Skill & Nightsoul Blessing - Changes Normal / Plunging Attack to Geo. (DEF Scaling) - When there are less than 1 Pyro / Cryo / Hydro / Electro, Normal and Plunging Attack Damage + 30% - Geo Resistance Shred (When at Nightsoul State)
★ Elemental Skill & Nightsoul Blessing - When there are less than 1 Pyro / Cryo / Hydro / Electro, additional Geo DMG will happen with the initial attack. └ The healing will not activate.

Amazing At Climbing Valleys And Walls
