Xuanling – Complete Character Guide

Xuanling

5★ Spectro Main DPS dual‑stance · flow system

⚔️ Core Loop

Switch stances → deplete Flow bar → build Cangling charges → unleash stance‑specific Heavy Attack.

Cang Form Yu Form 3 switching methods Xuyan stacks

⫸ Stance System

Cang Form4-hit NA · lower multiplier

Yu Form4-hit NA · higher multiplier

Switch by casting Resonance Skill. The energy icon below the bar shows current form: circle → Cang, V‑shape → Yu.

⫸ 3 Switching Methods

① Direct Skill method 1

Simply press skill → switches form & performs 1st NA of the new stance. You then continue NA2–NA4.

Example: Yu → cast skill → Cang NA1 → NA2 → NA3 → NA4.

② During NA Chain method 2

After completing a full NA chain, the skill icon changes. Using it mid‑combo does not reset the NA sequence. Triggers a special dodge when the enemy attacks — drains half of the Flow bar instantly.

✅ Preserves combo count · faster Flow depletion · safer gameplay

③ When Flow is Empty method 3

When the Flow bar turns blue feather form, the skill icon glows red. Using it refills Flow completely and can interrupt current attacks. A shadow clone (Shengzhi Huanshen) appears and deals fixed 523 damage per hit.

⚡ Can cancel NA4 animation — clone finishes the attack, but no Xuyan stack is applied on that hit.

Progression: method ③ > ② > ① — each level offers faster Flow management and extra utility.

⫸ Heavy Attack & Cangling

Cangling (two slots below Flow bar) is gained by:

Using method ③ (refill Flow) → +1 left slot
Casting Intro Skill → +1 slot
Casting Ultimate → +1 slot & clears Flow bar

When both slots are full → the Heavy Attack icon changes.

Cang Form HAForward vortex

Yu Form HAUpward strike → plunge

Both consume both Cangling slots. Yu Form HA leads to 3 special NAs (Yanxiang Fenghua) within 12s — can be spaced out or linked via dodge counter.

☀️ Heavy Attack buff — after any HA, gain a stance‑specific icon (same effect):
Cang HA: boosts vortex crit damage · Yu HA: boosts all follow‑up hits (ascent, plunge, 3 special NAs).
Buff ends when the corresponding attack sequence finishes.

⫸ Xuyan Effect

A debuff applied to enemies (max 3 layers baseline, up to 6 with Qianxiao). Xuanling’s NA4 applies 1 stack. Each stack increases her damage — scaling tiers at 1–3 and 4–6 layers.

Yushi buff (self)up to 6 stacks

Crit Dmg per stack+25%

Max bonus+150% crit dmg

When Yushi reaches 6 stacks, using the glowing skill summons a bird that applies 6 stacks of Xuyan to all enemies hit. Also triggers Fengxi Xiangyi (refreshes every 1s).

Ultimate synergy: Casting ult with the Shenshen Niuzhuan buff active summons another bird dealing ~29,000 damage.

⫸ Skill Priority

1. Ultimate (highest MV) — main damage source
2. Resonance Circuit — boosts all enhanced stances & HAs
3. Normal Attack — especially Yu Form NA chain for Flow depletion
4. Resonance Skill / Intro — low priority, level last

⫸ Weapon Rankings

🥇 Signature (Bi'an?)All‑stat, def ignore

🥈 Caizu+HA dmg after skill

🥉 Heyi LiumingHigher ceiling, needs crit balance

4★ options: all below are viable. Balance crit rate/dmg for optimal performance.

⫸ Echo Sets

Set: Fallen Sky Song (2‑pc + Resonance Efficiency, 5‑pc + crit rate & HA dmg)

Main stats (43311):

4-cost: Crit Rate or Crit DMG
3-cost x2: Spectro DMG / ATK% (1+1 best in testing)
1-cost x2: ATK%

Substats: Crit Rate ≥ Crit DMG ≥ ATK% ≥ Heavy Attack% ≥ Resonance Efficiency

⚡ Aim for 120% Resonance Efficiency for smooth rotation (115% minimum).

4-cost: Qiankui Zhonglou 43311 config

⫸ Resonance Chain (Key Nodes)

C1 Triple utility

Summons bird on empty‑Flow skill (25k dmg)
Enemy slow during skill
Interruption immunity on Cang HA & Yu HA follow‑ups

C2 Damage + out‑of‑combot

+~40% HA dmg (tested: 79k → 110k per Cang HA tick)
After 4s out of combat: gain bird proc, +2 Cangling, HA buff — great for overworld

C3 Ultimate spike

Ult dmg: ~550k → ~960k
Extra Xuyan stack per application
Removes team limit: raise stack cap by +3 for all allies

C4 Team ATK buff

Intro Skill / mid‑combo switch / empty‑Flow switch — all grant party ATK%.

C5 Revive

Once per 10 min: prevents lethal hit, heals 50% HP, 3s invulnerability & interrupt immunity.

C6 Massive multiplier

After empty‑Flow skill: 30s buff — each Xuyan application triggers a bird attack (auto‑crit, ~67k, considered HA). Triggers up to 5 times.
Ult dmg with C6: ~1.44M

⫸ Team Compositions

Team 1 Xuanling + Youluo + Qianxiao

Qianxiao raises Xuyan cap to 6, provides survival & extra amp. Youluo boosts HA dmg via Outro.

Team 2 Xuanling + Motefei + Qianxiao

Same logic — Motefei’s Outro also buffs HA damage.

Team 3 Xuanling + Linnai + sustain

Linnai provides all‑type dmg amp via Outro and team buffs via Ultimate.

Xuanling also pairs well with future Spectro characters. Rotation details in dedicated guide.

⫸ Rotation Snapshot

Basic loop (C0):

Start in Cang → skill swap to Yu
Swap to supports (Youluo/Qianxiao) to fill Concerto
Xuanling enters (Yu form) → Intro Skill → full NA chain → deplete Flow
Skill swap back to Cang → full Flow → Cang HA (vortex)
Ultimate → clear Flow → +1 Cangling
Skill (method ③) → refill Flow → +1 Cangling → switch to Yu
Yu HA (upward → plunge → 3 special NAs) → swap out
Repeat

With C2: pre‑stack before entering for an extra Cang HA at start.

⫸ Verdict

F2P: C0 + 4★ weapon is viable — pull C0 to enrich your DPS roster.

Light spender: C2 + signature greatly improves damage & overworld QoL.

Whale: C3 → C6 unlocks flexible team building and enormous damage ceiling.

Xuanling’s damage type is predominantly Heavy Attack (including Ultimate). Build around HA amplifiers.
