Xinyan's skill grants you an Pyro status upon contact with a shield. No matter how many times you switch your characters, it'll still apply Pyro every instance you switch with a shield. This allows you to cleanse most elemental statuses that have been applied to you.
This mechanic can be particularly useful for Xinyan players, as it enables them to consistently apply Pyro and trigger Melt or Vaporize reactions, dealing increased damage to enemies.
To maximize the effectiveness of Xinyan's skill, consider the following:

  • Switching characters with a shield to maintain the Pyro status
  • Using Xinyan in a team composition that includes characters with high Elemental Mastery (EM) to increase reaction damage
  • Farming Pyro characters and artifacts, such as the Crimson Witch of Flames set, to enhance Xinyan's abilities
