C1 Faruzan over Sucrose

I used to run Xiao C1R1 with Bennet Sucrose C4R5 Thrilling and Zhongli but haven't played Genshin for overa year

I just came back today and managed to get During and will try to get Nicole too

My question is , is my best team right now Xiao Bennet Durin Faruzan or is Sucrose better?

My faruzan is c1 only and isn't built yet

Xiao official figure help assembling

So I recently got my hands on the official Xiao figure but I'm having trouble ensambling it. It's my first figure and I'm not really good at this stuff and I'm afraid to damage it, and I figured this sub has people who have the figure for sure.

For those who bought the Xiao official figure back in the day, do you have any tips on how to pass the spear through his hand? I know the head of the spear detaches and you have to pass first the detached part and then you can attach the head but even tho I push it doesn't go through the hand. I saw some videos and in one they easily achieved it and in the other they had to push with a bit more force but did it but I can't manage to do it myself. Is the "round" part facing the fingers or the palm? Is there any tip for the angle? I know it's made to be achievable but I constantly feel like if I force it more I'll mess up and have the irrational thought maybe there's some problem with mine that makes it not fit. The first part (the one that later attaches to the head) passes but then the rest of the spear does not pass through, I can't really make a good photo of it but the spear itself clashes with the hand/the hand is not open enough to easily make it pass. Should I just insist/push harder?

Thank you!

Is the new BIS team with Nicole really confortable ?

I got Nicole with her sig and I have C2R1 Durin but i didn't initially pulled them for Xiao. I wonder if the new Xiao hexerei team with Nicole, Durin and R5 Fav bow C6 Faruzan (which I have) is really comfy to play. Xiao loses HP with his ult and he has no way to heal with this team... I wanted to pair him with Xianyun but he'd lose too much particules....

xiao team help, pull for durin?

hi guys! currently i have xiao c1 (can get c2 w the event) on r1 deathmatch. is pulling for durin worth it?

i have c0 xianyun, c2 faruzan, c5 bennett (what i usually run is Xiao, bennett, xianyun, and a sub dps/off field dmg-er, my faruzan isn’t built)

would durin significantly help my xiao? over nicole? and if i don’t get anyone this patch if you have any team comp suggestions i’d greatly appreciate it… (i don’t have furina)

(also im like a come and go player and i still have xiao on gladiator x viridescent, is vermillion worth farming for ?💔💔💔)

Is c0 durin or c0 nicole better alone?

I’m wondering who to pull for xiao, but I only have enough wishes to get one or the other. Which is better for xiao? I know they are more effective together but again, I can’t do that.

C0R0 Hexerei vs vertically invested FFXX

Forgive me if this has been asked already, but I can’t find a clear answer.

My current team is C1R1 Xiao 4VH, C6 Faruzan 4ToM, C2R1 Furina 4GT, and C1R0 Xianyun 4NO (eventually want C2 and weapon).

I just pulled C0 Durin since he will benefit a lot of my teams, but Nicole seems more restricted to hex. I’m on the fence about pulling her.

At what investment does FFXX equal C0 Hex teams? I might pull Nicole anyways for QoL in Stygian and to free Furina for other teams

Nicole FAQ: To Hexe, or to not Hexe? That is the question.

Hello everyone, first of all sorry for the delay. Unfortunately the team as a whole are just much busier in real life and have less time.

So while the main guide is still a WIP, we thought we'd publish these in the meantime for those still deciding to pull her.

Link to sheet in post.

TL;DR
1. Hexe Xiao BIS
2. Nicole not worth without Durin.

How to build Durin for Xiao?

Currently for my Xiao team, I'm running Xiao (c2r1, VH) with Furina (c0, GT), Xianyun (c0, NO), and faruzan (c6, TotM). I just pulled Durin today as a sidegrade for Furina because I think he's cute and I want to free up my Furina to be used on my Neuv/Skirk teams.

I've seen that 4pc NO is BiS for Durin but since I already have it on my Xianyun, would it be worthwhile to farm SoDP/Ocean-Hued Clam (not sure which one would be better) for her and give Durin NO? Or would it be better to put Durin on some sort of 2pc EoSF 2pc ??? situation?

Any advice would be appreciated :)

Returning player fixing Xiao

I'm a release player that has returned a few weeks ago and I have played in waves over the past few years. I am looking to fix my Xiao to keep up with current content. I used to run a gladiator/vv build on him with deathmatch. I have staff of homa which I gave to him and he will be c1 once I finish the constellation course thing. My Faruzan is c2 and I do have c0 Furina. I am also unsure who to try to go for between Durin and Nicole on who would be more beneficial as I likely won't be able to go for both. I see a lot of discussion about using Long Night's Oath or Vermillion Hereafter so not sure what would be best for my case! I will comment a list of my current owned characters if that helps at all deciding on a build and who to prioritize in the upcoming banners. Thank you in advance for your help ❤️

Xiao BIS team

I know there’s been quite a few posts about this especially with Nicole coming out but I’m still quite confused. Didn’t really want to comment on an existing post in case it doesn’t get seen and my build is different from OP.

My current team is C6R1 Xiao, C0R1 Xianyun, C1R1 Furina, C6 Faruzan.

I have C0R1 Durin.

I’m thinking about getting C0R1 Nicole but I’m on the fence about it. I do not keep up with the new characters kit so I don’t know how Nicole works which is why I want to know whether I should get Nicole or not.

Thanks for reading :)

Where can I find Xiao postcards from the 2023 Toronto popup event?

I’ve been trying to look for the Xiao postcards from the 2023 Toronto popup event lately, but since they’re pretty old event merch at this point, I honestly have no idea where people usually find things like this anymore.

There were two versions of the postcard:

* a pearl/foil version with subtle sparkles

* a normal non-foil version with a regular postcard finish

I already own the pearl/foil one, but I’ve been hoping to eventually find the normal version too since it’s one of my biggest wishlist items.

Unfortunately I only joined the fandom after 2023, so I completely missed the popup when it happened.

Does anyone know where people usually look for older Genshin merch/postcards like this nowadays? Any recommended second-hand platforms, communities, or places to keep an eye on would really help. Thank you!
