January is coming to an end. For Genshin Impact players, this is good news, because it means that version 1.3 is coming. Previously, there were rumors that Xiao would be one of the playable characters in the upcoming version, and he would appear in his own banner for the 1.3 version. If all this is true, it is necessary to know more about Xiao in advance.

About Xiao

Xiao is a five-star character, so he is very difficult to get, you can only get him through the Wish system in the game.

He is an Anemo user, which means that his attacks are based on wind.

His weapon is a polearm, so his best character builds should be focused on increasing damage output, because he is good at DPS.

His attacks

Xiao can produce a lot of interesting attacks, but the most attractive one is Bane of All Evil. This elemental burst allows him to wear the mask of a wolf and become a well-trained warrior against the demons - yaksha. Although this will slowly consume his HP, it can indeed increase his damage and attack stats.

One important reason why he was able to become yaksha is that he is a member of Adepti, which is a major faction in Genshin Impact. It is this clue that makes him play an important role in the story.

His background story

Xiao is an Adeptus, he is one of Liyue's protectors. This team is composed of humans and gods. Xiao has already appeared in version 1.0, if he will appear in version 1.3, then he will play a more important role. Because as an Adeptus, he will have close connections with some important characters, such as Geo Archon Rex Lapis.

In addition to Xiao, there are also rumors that Hu Tao will also appear in the 1.3 update. These rumors are generally reliable. Although Mihoyo has not issued an official statement, fans can still look forward to it. Because the story of version 1.3 is related to Liyue’s Lantern Rite Festival, and Xiao is one of Liyue’s protectors, version 1.3 is the best time for him to appear.

Once Mihoyo officially releases news about the 1.3 update, MMOWTS will also update related articles in time, and will also update related game guides, such as Xiao's best character builds.

Once version 1.3 is released, MMOWTS will also launch Genshin Impact Accounts with Xiao as soon as possible. This is because some players who have not had enough luck to meet Xiao in the game, then buying Genshin Impact Accounts is the most time-saving way.
