A girl wandering Aisha, sworn to protect the imperial throne, habitually muttering, 'I must protect my master.' It is rumored that she is an undying weapon created by a sorcerer who lost his sweetheart during the great war and did not want to experience such grief again. Although she herself seems to fear combat, she is compelled to enter the battlefield by the command of the charm attached to her forehead.

Poison + Silence access

Weakness

Low damage output

Xiao is a melee DPS hero with access to both Poison and Silence debuffs. While these debuffs are valuable in certain team compositions, her damage output remains significantly below current meta standards, limiting her effectiveness in end-game content.

What keeps Xiao relevant is her ability to apply Poison consistently through critical hits and Silence through her active skill, which can disable enemy skills for extended periods. However, without strong team buffs or exceptional damage, she serves best as a utility piece rather than a primary damage dealer.

🤔

Should You Use Xiao?

It depends on your needs — Xiao provides valuable Poison and Silence utility, but her damage output falls below current standards. Only invest in her for Codex purposes or if you need a budget Poison applier.

Strengths

Poison application — applies Poison on every critical hit, enabling Poison synergy teams.
Silence debuff — Energy Drain inflicts Silence for 20 seconds, disabling enemy skills entirely.
Pull mechanic — brings targets in front of the caster, useful for positioning.

Weaknesses

Low damage output — her 700% active skill multiplier falls significantly below current melee DPS standards.
No team utility — lacks buffs, shields, or healing for allies, limiting team value.

Why Xiao Stands Out

Xiao stands out for her dual debuff access — both Poison and Silence — which are relatively rare among melee heroes. While her damage does not compete with top-tier units, her Silence duration provides meaningful utility in PvP and certain boss encounters where disabling enemy skills is crucial.

Best Game Modes

  • PvE — usable in early to mid-game content where Poison synergies are needed
  • Boss fights — Silence can disable certain boss skills, providing utility in specific encounters

Build & Optimization

Roll for Critical Hit Rate. Due to enemy critical hit resistance in late-game content like Deep Nightmare, aim for higher than 100% effective Critical Hit Rate to ensure consistent critical hits.
