Genshin Impact 2.6 leaks: Xiao to receive huge buffs with signature artifacts
Xiao, the silent protector of Liyue is an Adeptus who uses the Anemo-Polearm combination. He recently got his limited banner rerun during the first phase of the 2.4 update along with the newly released 5-star character, Shenhe. While Xiao has existed in the game for a long time, many Travelers wanted Xiao to have his signature artifacts.
The Genshin Impact 2.6 leaks has confirmed such possibility. Although, it is not mentioned that the artifacts are exclusively made for Xiao. Fans have got a brief idea that the sets will work incredible with Xiao since the leak reveals HP based artifacts, the set will work perfectly for someone who drains up a lot of health while using his Elemental Burst.
The revelation of artifact sets comes from a Chinese leaker, Uncle L who has also revealed the bonuses that will be received by the character. Although the artifact sets are unnamed, players can look at the stats that the artifact provides:
- 2 piece: Increases ATK by 18%
- 4 piece: After performing an elemental burst, the character will gain 8% ATK bonus. In addition to that, whenever the character’s HP is lost, the ATK% is increased by 10% up to 4 stacks. This buff will last for 16 seconds and will be removed when the character goes off-field
Xiao’s elemental burst, “Bane of All Evil” where he dons the Yaksha mask deals a heavy damage to his enemies, although, he continues to lose his HP which might get him killed by weak enemies. Therefore, HP based artifacts revealed in Genshin Impact 2.6 leaks will work great on him.
As of now, Travelers prefer to use Gladiator’s Finale and Viridescent Venerer which provide buff to his HP as well as increase his CRIT DMG. However, the stats presented by the new artifacts looks quite ideal for Xiao where he can be used as a DPS character without having to worry for his HP.
Some more details regarding these artifact sets are awaited, therefore, players should stock up resins in order to use the upcoming artifacts.
