supporthealerbufferampcryo
Xaihi is a premier support thanks to the strong Amp buffs her Ultimate and Battle Skill hand out, especially to Cryo and Nature allies. On top of that she keeps the whole party topped up with heals and can apply Cryo Infliction, which sets up powerful elemental reactions for her teammates.
endgamesupportsupporthealerampcryonaturelate_gameintellectult_gain
A support build that leans on raw stats instead of a set bonus. Xaihi carries Chivalric Virtues for its Medicant attack buff, then pairs Redeemer Armor and Rift Trekker Gloves with two Frontiers O2 Tube cores, stacking Intellect and Ultimate Gain. This maximizes her Amp output and Ultimate uptime, which is ideal when another teammate already supplies the Eternal Xiranite team buff.

Explanation

Chivalric Virtues is the pick because its Medicant skill buffs team attack and Xaihi can activate it through her Battle Skill's healing.
Redeemer Armor with Rift Trekker Gloves and two Frontiers O2 Tubes forms a stat-focused kit that skips set bonuses entirely.
Junction Point is the next best option for extra Ultimate Gain and Intellect, while Detonation Unit pulls ahead in rotations that can trigger its Detonate skill.

Notes

  • Ignoring set effects is deliberate, because a second Eternal Xiranite wearer on the team would make the bonus redundant.
  • Stack Intellect and Ultimate Gain to raise both her Amp values and how often her Ultimate is ready.
  • Chivalric Virtues' Medicant attack buff is simple to trigger since her Battle Skill heals the active operator.
endgamesupportsupporthealerampcryonaturelate_gameteam_buffeternal_xiranite
An alternative support setup for teams that lack another Eternal Xiranite wearer. Xaihi keeps Chivalric Virtues in the weapon slot, then wears Redeemer Armor alongside the full Eternal Xiranite pieces so she can supply the set's team-wide DMG Dealt bonus herself. It trades a little personal Ultimate Gain and Amp strength for a party damage buff.

Explanation

Chivalric Virtues stays in the weapon slot for its team attack buff and its easy trigger condition.
Combining Redeemer Armor with Eternal Xiranite gloves and a pair of Bracing Slab cores lets Xaihi supply the team DMG Dealt buff herself.
Switch back to the no-set stat build if another support such as Gilberta, Arcane, or Ardelia already covers Eternal Xiranite.

Notes

  • Only use this variant when nobody else on the team already runs Eternal Xiranite, since the effect does not stack.
  • The set adds HP for the wearer and grants nearby allies a DMG Dealt boost after Amp, Protected, Susceptibility, or Weakened is applied.
  • Personal Ultimate Gain and Amp are a touch lower than the dedicated stat build.

A budget-friendly starting point for new players. Dreams of the Starry Beach is a free 6-star weapon that boosts Xaihi's healing and Intellect, while the Mordvolt Resistant set raises her Will and her healing throughput. It gives a usable healer and support core without needing any hard-to-find gear.

The free 6-star weapon improves her Intellect and healing, matching her early support role.
Mordvolt Resistant's Will boost and low-HP healing bonus keep her effective while players are still progressing.
Move toward the Chivalric Virtues build once stronger weapons and gear become available.

Notes

  • Dreams of the Starry Beach is free for newer players, which makes this setup very accessible.
  • Mordvolt Resistant raises Will and adds a healing bonus when the wearer drops below half HP.
  • Infliction and Treatment Efficiency take priority on the weapon's essence.

Build Insights

Xaihi is a backline support who is best left as a teammate rather than the controlled operator. Her Battle Skill sends out an Auxiliary Crystal that heals the active unit after Final Strikes and converts overflow healing into an Arts Amp, so she passively boosts whoever is on the field. When those heals are used up, her Combo Skill fires Cryo damage and Cryo Infliction, opening reaction windows for the team. Her Ultimate layers Cryo and Nature Amp on the entire squad, with the bonus portion scaling off Intellect, making her a natural fit beside Cryo or Nature damage dealers. She pairs especially well with supports who already run the Eternal Xiranite set, since she can then invest everything into Intellect and Ultimate Gain for bigger Amps and faster Ultimate cycles. Teams built around Infliction benefit most from her Execute Process talent, while Freeze Protocol adds a defensive cleanse against Solidification and Cryo Infliction.
Core Mechanics
  • Auxiliary Crystal: her Battle Skill summons a crystal that heals the controlled operator whenever a Final Strike lands, up to two triggers, scaled by Will.
  • If the crystal's heal would push the operator past max HP, the excess becomes an Arts Amp instead, so keeping the active unit healthy converts healing into extra damage.
  • Once the crystal's two heals are spent, her Combo Skill becomes available and deals Cryo damage while applying Cryo Infliction.
  • Her Ultimate gives party-wide Cryo and Nature Amp, combining a flat base with a bonus that scales off Intellect and caps at 30%.
  • Her Execute Process talent makes Combo Skill hits raise the Cryo damage taken by enemies affected by Cryo Infliction or Solidification.
Scaling
  • Healing strength grows with Will, while the extra Amp provided by her Ultimate grows with Intellect, so both stats drive her support value.
  • She shines most in dedicated Cryo or Nature teams where her Amps land on damage dealers who can use them.
  • Her late-game value climbs further when allies reliably apply Cryo Infliction, letting her Execute Process talent amplify team damage.

Character Notes

Xaihi is a 5-star Cryo Supporter who plays as a backline enabler rather than a damage dealer. Her kit revolves around the Auxiliary Crystal, which heals the controlled operator and can convert overflow healing into an Arts Amp. When those heals are consumed, she gains access to a Combo Skill that deals Cryo damage and applies Cryo Infliction, and her Ultimate blankets the team in Cryo and Nature Amp. She works best beside Cryo and Nature units and rewards investment in Intellect and Ultimate Gain.
Playstyle
  • Keep Xaihi as a teammate instead of the controlled operator; her kit is built to buff and heal whoever is on the field.
  • Let the active unit land a Final Strike to consume one crystal heal, then trigger the second so her Combo Skill comes online for Cryo Infliction.
  • Fire the Ultimate just before your damage window so the whole party benefits from the Cryo and Nature Amp.
  • Use the Combo Skill primarily for its Cryo Infliction rather than for raw damage, and let other skills carry the scaling.
Strengths
  • Bundles Amp, healing, and Cryo Infliction into a single support slot.
  • Ultimate Amp scales with Intellect, giving a clear gearing direction.
  • Low Ultimate energy cost means her buffs come back quickly.
  • Execute Process talent amplifies team damage against Inflicted or Solidified enemies.
  • Freeze Protocol adds a defensive cleanse for Solidification and Cryo Infliction.
Weaknesses
  • Healing depends on the controlled operator landing Final Strikes, so uptime follows attack rhythm.
  • Her own damage contribution is low, so she relies on strong teammates.
  • The recommended gear assumes another Eternal Xiranite wearer, which can constrain team building.
  • Her buffs are largely wasted outside Cryo or Nature compositions.

Team Guide

bestcryo_teamburst_team
A Cryo Solidification lineup built around Yvonne as the burst carry. Xaihi supplies Arts Amp, Cryo Amp and Nature Amp along with an extra stack of Cryo Infliction from her Combo Skill, while Tangtang builds Waterspout stacks and applies Arts Susceptibility. Arcane brings crowd control, Corrosion and the Gloompurger Array, so the team piles up Cryo Infliction fast and converts it into Yvonne's Solidification damage.

Explanation

Xaihi's Amp buffs cover Arts, Cryo and Nature, directly raising the damage ceiling of Yvonne's Solidification window.
Arcane's Combo Skill can trigger Tangtang's Combo Skill, enabling a second Waterspout and helping the team reach the required Cryo Infliction stacks.
Gilberta can be used in place of Arcane when players prefer stronger crowd control and a simpler setup.

Strengths

  • Fast Cryo Infliction stacking through Xaihi's and Arcane's Combo Skills.
  • Multiple Amp layers boost both Yvonne's burst and Tangtang's follow-up damage.

Weaknesses

  • Strict sequencing: Arcane's Combo Skill has to line up with Tangtang's to secure the second Waterspout.

Rotation

  1. 1Tangtang casts her Battle Skill and immediately follows up with her Combo Skill to begin stacking damage.
  2. 2Arcane's Combo Skill adds the second Cryo Infliction stack and applies her debuffs to the enemy.
  3. 3Xaihi casts her Battle Skill to ready the Auxiliary Crystal, then Arcane's Ultimate adds a third Cryo Infliction stack and summons the Gloompurger Array.
  4. 4Yvonne performs two Final Strikes, which activates the Gloompurger Array's coordinated attacks and unlocks Gloompurge Arcana.
  5. 5Xaihi's Combo Skill adds a fourth Cryo Infliction stack, and her Ultimate then grants the team Cryo and Nature Amp.
  6. 6Tangtang's Combo Skill produces a second Whirlpool, and Arcane's Ultimate provides Gloompurge Arcana for extra damage.
  7. 7Yvonne's Battle Skill consumes every Cryo Infliction stack to trigger Solidification and generate Ultimate energy, followed by an immediate Final Strike.
  8. 8Yvonne's Combo Skill reapplies Solidification and maxes out her Freezing Point talent before she casts her Ultimate.
  9. 9Tangtang's Battle Skill applies Arts Susceptibility, and Arcane's Combo Skill is triggered during Yvonne's rapid-fire animation.
  10. 10Tangtang's Ultimate is used before Yvonne's Ultimate ends, and a Dive Attack finishes the window while triggering Tangtang's early Rogue Wave.
Open with Tangtang and Arcane skills, stack Cryo Infliction with Xaihi, then unleash Yvonne's Solidification burst.
alternativecryo_teamburst_team
A Solidification variant where Gilberta replaces Arcane in the fourth slot. Xaihi still enables the core Cryo gameplan by supplying Amp buffs and a bonus Cryo Infliction stack, while Tangtang handles Arts Susceptibility and crowd control to protect Yvonne during her Ultimate. Gilberta adds Nature Infliction and debuffs that help push the enemy into Solidification.

Explanation

Gilberta provides Nature Infliction plus crowd control and debuffs, which helps trigger Solidification and keeps enemies grouped for Yvonne.
Xaihi remains the Amp source for Cryo and Nature while contributing an additional Cryo Infliction stack through her Combo Skill.
Tangtang's crowd control lets Yvonne channel her Ultimate safely, making the burst window far more reliable.

Strengths

  • Gilberta's grouping and debuffs make Yvonne's burst window easier to land.
  • Xaihi's Amps and Tangtang's crowd control protect the carry while stacking debuffs.

Weaknesses

  • Solidification depends on Gilberta's Nature Infliction timing, so the order of skills matters.

Rotation

  1. 1Xaihi and Gilberta cast their Battle Skills at the start of combat to prepare the Auxiliary Crystal and begin Gilberta's channel.
  2. 2Yvonne performs a Final Strike, then casts her Battle Skill after Gilberta applies Nature Infliction to trigger Solidification and charge Ultimate energy.
  3. 3If Solidification came from her Battle Skill, Yvonne uses a basic attack to skip straight to Final Strike, and Xaihi's Ultimate is used as soon as it is ready.
  4. 4Yvonne's Combo Skill reapplies Solidification, after which Xaihi's Combo Skill adds a Cryo Infliction stack.
  5. 5Tangtang's Combo Skill is triggered, then her Battle Skill is cast to apply Arts Susceptibility to the enemy.
  6. 6Tangtang's Ultimate is used first for crowd control, followed by Yvonne's Ultimate, and a Dive Attack at the end triggers Tangtang's Riot Bringer talent.
Set up Xaihi and Gilberta skills first, trigger Solidification with Yvonne's Battle Skill, then chain Ultimates.
bestcryo_teamburst_team
A hypercarry setup where Last Rite converts stacked Cryo Infliction into massive burst. Xaihi is the core support: she heals the controlled operator, provides Amp buffs, and uses her Combo Skill to supply an extra Cryo Infliction stack so the team can meet Last Rite's requirement of at least three stacks. Tangtang and Fluorite round the team out with extra stacks, Arts Susceptibility and debuffs.

Explanation

Last Rite's Combo Skill needs at least three Cryo Infliction stacks, and Xaihi's Combo Skill contributes one of them while she keeps the controlled operator alive.
Xaihi's Ultimate applies Cryo Amp, scaling up the damage of Last Rite's Cryo abilities and Ultimate.
Xaihi's Execute Process talent adds a debuff through her Combo Skill, further increasing the team's synergy.
Ardelia or Perlica can replace Tangtang depending on preference, since Ardelia is listed as the default fourth slot in the base composition.

Strengths

  • Xaihi covers both sustain and Cryo Infliction, freeing slots for pure damage and debuff units.
  • Fluorite's Combo Skill and Ultimate act as SP-free Cryo Infliction sources for Last Rite's Combo Skill.

Weaknesses

  • Missing Cryo Infliction timing delays Last Rite's Combo Skill and weakens the Ultimate's damage.

Rotation

  1. 1Xaihi and Last Rite open with their Battle Skills to prepare the Auxiliary Crystal and the Mirages.
  2. 2Tangtang performs a Final Strike to apply one Cryo Infliction stack, then Last Rite recasts her Battle Skill; Tangtang's Combo Skill is held for now.
  3. 3A second Tangtang Final Strike adds another Cryo Infliction stack, and Xaihi's Ultimate is cast whenever it becomes available.
  4. 4Tangtang's Combo Skill is triggered for Whirlpool, while Xaihi's and Fluorite's Combo Skills each add another Cryo Infliction stack, followed by Tangtang's Battle Skill for more stacks and Arts Susceptibility.
  5. 5Last Rite's Combo Skill applies Cryo Susceptibility, then her Ultimate is cast, and a Dive Attack afterwards triggers Tangtang's Riot Bringer talent.
Prepare Mirages and Auxiliary Crystal, stack Cryo Infliction from three sources, then fire Last Rite's Combo Skill and Ultimate.
bestcryo_teamburst_team
Here Tangtang is the hypercarry, with Xaihi enabling her through Cryo and Arts Amp plus extra Cryo Infliction from her Combo Skill. Arcane provides crowd control, Corrosion and the Gloompurger Array, while Perlica converts the stacked Cryo Infliction into Electrification and adds her own damage. Xaihi's Battle Skill is deliberately delayed so the Auxiliary Crystal lines up with Arcane's Ultimate.

Explanation

Xaihi's Amps boost both Tangtang's and Arcane's damage, and her Combo Skill supplies an extra Cryo Infliction stack.
Perlica consumes the Cryo Infliction stacks to apply high-level Electrification, adding a second damage layer to the burst window.
Arcane's crowd control and debuffs amplify Tangtang's damage potential while keeping enemies grouped.

Strengths

  • Very high burst ceiling when all Amp, debuff and Electrification layers overlap.
  • Multiple Cryo Infliction sources make stack requirements easy to hit.

Weaknesses

  • Xaihi's Battle Skill must be delayed to sync with Arcane's Ultimate, so the rotation is timing-sensitive.

Rotation

  1. 1Tangtang casts her Battle Skill and immediately triggers her Combo Skill, after which Arcane's Combo Skill is also triggered.
  2. 2Tangtang lands a Final Strike, then Perlica's Combo Skill is triggered for the first debuff layer.
  3. 3Arcane's Ultimate summons the Gloompurger Array and raises the enemy's Cryo Infliction count to two stacks.
  4. 4Xaihi's Battle Skill prepares the Auxiliary Crystal, and Tangtang performs two Final Strikes to consume its charges.
  5. 5Xaihi's Combo Skill adds a Cryo Infliction stack, then Tangtang's and Arcane's Combo Skills are triggered, bringing the total to four stacks.
  6. 6Perlica's Battle Skill consumes all Cryo Infliction to apply level 4 Electrification, and her Ultimate follows for damage and to activate Stanza's Twilight skill if equipped.
  7. 7Xaihi's Ultimate grants the team Cryo and Nature Amp, then Arcane's Ultimate deals damage with Gloompurge Arcana.
  8. 8Tangtang's Ultimate is used and followed by a Dive Attack that converts all Whirlpools into Waterspouts, boosted by her Riot Bringer talent.
  9. 9Tangtang's Combo Skill creates one more Whirlpool, which her Battle Skill immediately converts into a Waterspout.
Stack Cryo Infliction through Tangtang, Arcane and Xaihi, consume it with Perlica, then convert Whirlpools to Waterspouts with Tangtang's Ultimate.
alternativecryo_teamburst_team
A Tangtang hypercarry variant that replaces Arcane with Gilberta. Xaihi still enables the core plan by providing Cryo and Arts Amp and a Cryo Infliction stack through her Combo Skill, while Perlica converts the stacked Cryo Infliction into Electrification. The goal is to have every buff and debuff from Xaihi, Gilberta and Perlica active before Tangtang starts dealing damage.

Explanation

Gilberta's Battle Skill channels into Corrosion, and Xaihi's Combo Skill should land before that so her Execute Process talent is triggered.
Xaihi's Amps raise Tangtang's damage, and her Combo Skill supplies part of the Cryo Infliction the team needs.
Perlica's Electrification adds an extra damage layer on top of the Cryo amplification.

Strengths

  • All buffs and debuffs are front-loaded, so Tangtang's damage window is fully amplified.
  • Gilberta's Corrosion and Xaihi's Execute Process talent stack debuffs efficiently.

Weaknesses

  • Xaihi's Combo Skill must be triggered before Gilberta applies Corrosion, so ordering is strict.

Rotation

  1. 1Xaihi's Battle Skill opens the fight to prepare the Auxiliary Crystal.
  2. 2Tangtang attacks through the basic sequence until Final Strike, but Perlica's Combo Skill is deliberately held back.
  3. 3A second Tangtang Final Strike is performed, and Xaihi's Ultimate is cast as soon as it becomes available.
  4. 4Tangtang's Battle Skill applies Cryo Infliction, then Gilberta's Battle Skill begins her channel.
  5. 5Perlica's, Xaihi's and Tangtang's Combo Skills are triggered, with Xaihi's landing before Gilberta triggers Corrosion so Execute Process activates.
  6. 6When ready, Gilberta's Ultimate is cast first, followed by Tangtang's Ultimate.
  7. 7While Tangtang's Ultimate is active, a Dive Attack is performed to trigger her Riot Bringer talent.
Front-load Xaihi, Gilberta and Perlica buffs, then unleash Tangtang's Ultimate and finish with a Dive Attack.
advancedcryo_teamburst_team
An INT-form Arcane hypercarry team where Xaihi is an outstanding support, feeding Arcane with Arts and Nature Amp while also contributing Cryo Infliction. Gilberta adds Nature Infliction, grouping and Corrosion, and Tangtang supplies extra Cryo stacks, Whirlpool damage and Arts Susceptibility. Perlica can be swapped in for Tangtang when more burst and Electrification are preferred.

Explanation

Xaihi's Arts and Nature Amp buffs directly increase the damage of Arcane's Gloompurge Arcana burst.
Xaihi's Combo Skill adds a Cryo Infliction stack that Arcane can consume through her Combo Skill and Battle Skill follow-up.
Gilberta's Corrosion and grouping set up Arcane's Cluster Strikes during the two Final Strikes.
Perlica is a valid alternative to Tangtang, though her version should skip Xaihi's final Combo Skill to avoid leftover Cryo Infliction.

Strengths

  • Strong Amp coverage for Arcane's Nature and Cryo damage.
  • Flexible fourth slot: Tangtang for stacking or Perlica for Electrification burst.

Weaknesses

  • Tangtang's Battle Skill must be placed carefully to combine the second Cryo Infliction with Xaihi's Combo Skill.

Rotation

  1. 1Tangtang's Battle Skill plants a Cryo Infliction stack and her Combo Skill is triggered immediately afterwards.
  2. 2Xaihi's Battle Skill is cast followed by her Ultimate, then Arcane's Ultimate applies Corrosion and Gilberta's Combo Skill is triggered.
  3. 3Arcane performs two Final Strikes, activating her Gloompurger Array's Cluster Strikes and unlocking Gloompurge Arcana for later.
  4. 4Xaihi's Combo Skill adds a Cryo Infliction stack, then Tangtang's Combo Skill is triggered.
  5. 5Arcane's Combo Skill applies Nature and Cryo Susceptibility, and Tangtang's Battle Skill is cast after that.
  6. 6Gilberta's Ultimate applies level 3 Corrosion to the target.
  7. 7Arcane's Battle Skill ends the Imprisonment from her Combo Skill and triggers the bonus damage.
  8. 8Arcane's Ultimate is used to cast Gloompurge Arcana and close out the burst window.
Set up Corrosion and Amp buffs, trigger Arcane's Cluster Strikes, then finish with Gloompurge Arcana.

Team Insights

Xaihi is a support/healer hybrid who slots into teams rather than leading them. She heals the controlled operator, applies Arts, Cryo and Nature Amp through her Ultimate, and uses her Battle Skill to ready an Auxiliary Crystal that the carry consumes with Final Strikes. Her Combo Skill is the key piece: it adds an extra Cryo Infliction stack and, via her Execute Process talent, applies a debuff. Teams are therefore built around Cryo stack thresholds (three to four stacks) for Solidification or Last Rite's Combo Skill, or around Amp buffs that push a hypercarry like Yvonne, Tangtang or Arcane to a higher damage ceiling.
Synergy Patterns
  • Xaihi's Combo Skill supplies a Cryo Infliction stack that carries like Last Rite, Yvonne, Tangtang and Arcane need for their reactions.
  • Her Ultimate's Cryo and Nature Amp lines up with the main damage dealer's Ultimate burst window.
  • The Auxiliary Crystal from her Battle Skill is consumed by the carry's Final Strikes for bonus damage.
  • Triggering her Combo Skill before Gilberta's Corrosion lets the Execute Process debuff apply.
  • Pairing her with Arcane or Tangtang creates multiple Cryo Infliction sources, making stack requirements trivial to reach.
Tips
  • Time Xaihi's Battle Skill so the carry's Final Strikes consume the Auxiliary Crystal charges.
  • In Gilberta teams, land Xaihi's Combo Skill before Corrosion triggers to benefit from Execute Process.
  • In the INT Arcane team with Perlica, Xaihi's final Combo Skill can be skipped since the extra Cryo Infliction may disrupt the next rotation.
  • Xaihi can substitute for a dedicated healer slot in Cryo compositions because she sustains the controlled operator while buffing.

Xaihi belongs to the Cabal of Tranquility and is highly skilled in information technology. Aboard OMV Dijiang she works on the Protorig Network and system integration, putting her information engineering talent to use. Rumors suggest she upgraded the Cathedralis dome on her own without permission, and despite the headaches this caused the Abbess, her intellect and expertise still earned her a recommendation to Endfield Industries.
