Notes

A few commonly used teams for pyro Xiangling are:

National Team: Xiangling, Xingqiu, Bennett and a Flex unit (Sucrose/Zhongli/Kazuha/Raiden/Chongyun/etc)

Childe Team: Childe, Xiangling, Bennett and a Flex unit (Sucrose/Zhongli/Venti/Kazuha/etc)

Recommended ER thresholds:

National/Childe Teams: 160-200 ER%
Enabler for Reverse Melt teams: 200-250 ER%

Regarding Weapon Choices

THIS LIST ASSUMES THAT XIANGLING IS RUN WITH BOTH BENNETT AND A SECONDARY BUFFER (i.e. Kazuha/Sucrose)


[R5] Wavebreaker's Fin is equal to or outperforms Staff of Homa, depending on your total team burst cost.


[R5] Dragon's Bane outperforms Primordial Jade-Winged Spear.


Kitain Cross Spear's passive reduces the ER threshold of Xiangling greatly, down to ~140 ER% at [R1] and ~110 ER% at [R5]. This allows you to distribute ER rolls into otherwise offensive substats and due to this, an [R5] Kitain Cross Spear can outperform Primordial Jade-Winged Spear. Due to lowering ER thresholds so much, the Crimson Witch of Flames (4) artifact set will outperform Emblem of Severed Fate (4).


[R5] Lithic Spear with 2 stacks performs equal to Primordial Jade-Winged Spear.


The utility provided from a highly refined Favonius Lance can make it a weapon of choice in a team comp where Xiangling is not triggering the reaction and is instead used as an aura. (i.e. Reverse Melt teams)

Regarding Weapons and Artifacts with EM stat

/ / EM substats
In team comps where you can trigger both Vaporize and Overload at the same time (i.e. Raiden National), Elemental Mastery gets more value, pushing these weapons and artifacts ahead in damage.

Regarding Artifact Sets


This set can be competitive with Severed Fate (4) on team comps where Xiangling triggers Overloads in addition to Vaporize (i.e. Raiden National).


This set can be used as a very low investment support build to enable Reverse Melt team comps where Xiangling is not triggering the reaction and is instead used as an aura and needs a lot of Energy Recharge. Note that it is not recommended to stay on this build as Xiangling can still contribute respectable damage with offensive stats.
