Should You Pull for Xueyi?

Xueyi is a DPS character who focuses on utilizing Break Effect, reducing enemy Toughness, and using Karma stacks for follow-up attacks. She's a unique character because her damage scales with Break Effect, which is a stat not many characters use or focus on.

If you want to try out a unique DPS character with an interesting kit or want to try using Break Effect teams, then Xueyi would be a good character to pull and try out.

USE ATK% ORB, NOT A Q-DMG ORB! Because she converts break into dmg bonus, you get diminishing returns (she basically already has ~200 q-dmg, giving her another 50% is garbage). Atk% orb will utilize this damage bonus better!

7 Anonymous13 days

for me personally, I find Misha LC as the best for her until Mihoyo release 5* LC with BE%. Compared with 5* LC from Herta Store, Xueyi would have Massive Atk% loss when using this LC.
