Best weapon for Xianyun, calculated
Cashflow Supervision tops the weapon calc for Xianyun at 54,574 average damage on Elemental Skill. Every row below is the same hit with only the weapon swapped, at Level 90, talent 10 and refinement 1 — the right-hand column is the damage you give up by running it instead.
Each catalyst equipped on a Lv90 Xianyun at talent 10 — base ATK, substat and any modelled passive. Weapons whose passive is not modelled show only their raw stats; better a missing buff than a wrong one. Swap any of them in the Xianyun calculator to re-run the whole chain on your own panel.
| Weapon | Base ATK | Substat | Average | vs best |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Cashflow Supervision 5★ best base ATK 674 · CRIT Rate | 674 | CRIT Rate | 54,574 | 100% |
| Lost Prayer to the Sacred Winds 5★ preset base ATK 608 · CRIT Rate | 608 | CRIT Rate | 52,737 | 96.6% |

Constellations & passives
Only self-buffs that are unconditional and clearly numeric change the numbers above. Everything else is shown as text but applies nothing.
-
C1 · Purifying Wind not modelled — text only
White Clouds at Dawn gains 1 additional charge.
-
C2 · Aloof From the World not modelled — text only
After using a Skyladder from White Clouds at Dawn, Xianyun's ATK will be increased by 20% for 15s. Additionally, the effects of the Ascension Talent "Consider, the Adeptus in Her Realm" will be enhanced: When the Starwicker created by Stars Gather at Dusk has Adeptal Assistance stacks, nearby active characters' Plunging Attack shockwave DMG will be increased by 400% of Xianyun's ATK. The maximum DMG increase that can be achieved this way is 18,000. Each Plunging Attack shockwave DMG instance can only apply this increased DMG effect to a single opponent. Each character can trigger this effect once every 0.4s. You must first unlock the Ascension Talent "Consider, the Adeptus in Her Realm."
-
C3 · Creations of Star and Moon modelled
Increases the Level of Stars Gather at Dusk by 3. Maximum upgrade level is 15.
-
C4 · Mystery Millet Gourmet not modelled — text only
After using Skyladder 1/2/3 times during one White Clouds at Dawn Cloud Transmogrification state, when a Driftcloud Wave unleashed during that instance hits an opponent, it will heal all nearby party members for 50%/80%/150% of Xianyun's ATK. This effect can be triggered once every 5s.
-
C5 · Astride Rose-Colored Clouds modelled
Increases the Level of White Clouds at Dawn by 3. Maximum upgrade level is 15.
-
C6 · They Call Her Cloud Retainer not modelled — text only
After Xianyun uses 1/2/3 Skyladders within one Cloud Transmogrification caused by White Clouds at Dawn, the CRIT DMG of a Driftcloud Wave created in this instance of Cloud Transmogrification will be increased by 15%/35%/70%. Within 16s after Xianyun has used Stars Gather at Dusk, White Clouds at Dawn will not enter CD. This effect will be canceled once she has used White Clouds at Dawn 8 times.
Ascension passives
-
Galefeather Pursuit not modelled — text only
Each opponent hit by Driftcloud Waves from White Clouds at Dawn will grant all nearby party members 1 stack of Storm Pinion for 20s. Max 4 stacks. These will cause the characters' Plunging Attack CRIT Rate to increase by 4%/6%/8%/10% respectively. Each Storm Pinion created by hitting an opponent has an independent duration.
-
Consider, the Adeptus in Her Realm not modelled — text only
When the Starwicker created by Stars Gather at Dusk has Adeptal Assistance stacks, nearby active characters' Plunging Attack shockwave DMG will be increased by 200% of Xianyun's ATK.

Increases gliding SPD for your own party members by 15%. Not stackable with Passive Talents that provide the exact same effects.
Xianyun build questions, answered
What does Xianyun scale off?
Xianyun's Elemental Skill scales off total ATK — character base ATK plus weapon base ATK, then (1 + ATK%) and flat ATK on top. A weapon’s base ATK line therefore feeds this character directly.
What stat does Xianyun get from ascension?
Xianyun's ascension substat is ATK%. It arrives at the Level-80/90 ascension and is part of the character's own stats, so the calculator counts it before any artifact roll is added.
What is the best weapon for Xianyun?
Ranked by computed Elemental Skill damage at Level 90, talent 10 and refinement 1, Cashflow Supervision is the strongest catalyst for Xianyun at 54,574 average damage per hit. The Lost Prayer to the Sacred Winds used by this page's preset panel averages 52,737, 3.4% behind it.
What artifacts should Xianyun use?
Viridescent Venerer (4) is the set this calculator presets Xianyun with, and the damage tables include its bonuses. Set effects that depend on the element of the hit are applied per row rather than as a flat average.
How much damage should Xianyun do?
On the default Level-90, talent-10 build shown above, Xianyun's largest single hit averages 52,737 — the table lists its CRIT and non-CRIT numbers separately. That is a reference panel, not a target: load your own artifact rolls into the calculator to get your own number.
Do these numbers include Xianyun's constellations?
No — every table is computed at C0. Constellations that are unconditional and clearly numeric are modelled in the calculator and marked as such on this page; the rest are listed as text only and change nothing.
How those numbers are produced: the damage formula, term by term, and the weapon & artifact build guide. If Xianyun still hits soft, the six levers ranked by damage added shows which multiplier is holding a build back.
