Best Team for Xiao in Genshin Impact


Team #1: Xiao double Geo
Xiao's main source of DPS is his Anemo-converted Plunging Attacks. The Anemo conversion given by Xiao's Burst makes him lose HP continously, so a Xiao team requires healing and shielding. In this team, Xiao takes advantage of Zhongli's permanent shield and Geo resonance to increase his own damage.
Zhongli's role is to prevent Xiao's interruptions with his shield. Zhongli has the ability to keep his shield at 100% uptime and shred the enemies' resistances, as well as giving access to Geo resonance.
Albedo's purpose in this team to enable Geo resonance. He gives a notable contribution in DPS, but any Geo character actually works too, if not used elsewhere.
Team #2: Xiao double Pyro
Xiao's main source of DPS is his Anemo-converted Plunging Attacks. The Anemo conversion given by Xiao's Burst makes him lose HP continously, so a Xiao team requires healing and shielding. In this team, Xiao takes advantage of Pyro resonance to increase his own damage.
Zhongli's role is to prevent Xiao's interruptions with his shield. Any other shielder does the job too, but Zhongli has the ability to keep his shield at 100% uptime and shred the enemies' resistances.
Thoma's role is to enable Pyro resonance, and buff Xiao if C6. However, Thoma might me a niche character to build and use, so any other Pyro character does the job too.
