Xianyun is the newest 5-star Anemo supporter in Genshin Impact 4.4. She will buff many old characters in this game. Let's check out the five best characters buffed by Xianyun in Update 4.4 here.

#1. Diluc

Genshin Impact players often use Dragonstrike and Footstool skills when Diluc lands during his Plunge attacks. But you don't have to practice and try to master these hardcore skills after having Xianyun in Update 4.4.

You only have to unleash Xianyun's elemental burst before using Diluc's Plunge attacks. Then, his output damage also increases when cooperating with this new Anemo supporter. He can trigger powerful Vaporize reactions and become a reliable Pyro DPS.

Diluc can perform powerful plunge attacks with Xianyun's buff.

#2. Xiao

Xiao is known for his chain of Plunge attacks during his burst. However, you have to earn lots of energy particles to charge this skill. But Xianyun can let Xiao plunge more to boost his total damage.

You can witness a much larger damage score of this Anemo DPS when he has Xianyun's support. Moreover, Xiao also gets other valuable buffs from this new Adeptal supporter, such as 10% Crit Rate, 180% ATK at CM0 or 360% ATK at CM2, and continual healing.

#3. Itto

Itto's output damage depends on his burst. He also needs Superlative Superstrength stacks to spam his charged attacks to deal tons of damage with a 180% damage rate.

Many players do not know that his Plunge attack even deals much higher damage to the target (404%), but you cannot spam this attack without Xianyun's support. After unleashing his burst and spamming 5 charged attacks, you can switch to his plunge attacks to stack more Superlative Superstrength.

With Xianyun's buffs for high jumps and output damage, Itto can perform powerful plunge hits to devastate the opponent.

#4. Gaming

Gaming always wants to get buffs from Xianyun to play as a 5-star character. Genshin Impact designed him as an alternate DPS for Xiao. Gaming's output damage also relies on his elemental skill which allows him to jump high and plunge to destroy enemies.

Gaming can trigger devastating Vaporize and Melting reactions by unleashing his elemental skill. Then, you summon his companion, the Suanni Man Chai, through his burst. When Man Chai returns to Gaming, his skill CD will be reset for another attack. His burst exists within 12s and it won't be deactivated before Xianyun's burst ends.

#5. Freminet

Freminet is a Claymore wielder, so his charged and plunge attacks have high output damage. Therefore, Xianyun's buffs are very helpful for this Cryo DPS. When he reaches CM3 and his normal attack reaches level 3, his plunge attack has a high damage rate of 446%.
