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.

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.

Xueyi's Best Builds

Break Sub-DPS Build

Xueyi's DMG can be increased based on the amount of Break Effect she has thanks to her first Bonus Ability. Xueyi can benefit from the full set of Genius of Brilliant Stars as she can deal more Quantum DMG and ignore enemy DEF.

Talia: Kingdom of Banditry will be her best Ornament as she can get more Break Effect as long as she has 145 SPD.

Recommended Stat Values

Stat	Recommended Value
Break Effect	150% - 250%
SPD	145 / 160+
CRIT Rate	70% or above
CRIT DMG	120% or above
ATK	2100 - 2300+

Since Xueyi boosts her DMG based on her Break Effect, stacking a lot of Break Effect on her is recommended. She also benefits from crit stats, so the ideal 1:2 Ratio for CRIT Rate and CRIT DMG is good to have.

As for Speed, Xueyi needs at least 145 SPD to activate Talia's effect and get two turns in the first and third cycles during battle. Higher SPD is even better, but try to hit SPD Breakpoints.
