Characters

The second phase of Genshin Impact 5.5 will be released onApril 15, 2025, at 6 pm. Listed below are the characters who will be featured on the banners in this half:

Xilonen is getting her first rerun in the second phase of version 5.5.Xilonen is one of the best support unitsin that game that can not only shred the enemies’ defense but also heal and buff her party members. If you’re looking for a support unit, then it is a great chance for you to pull her. Luckily, Xilonen is also pretty easy to build and is great for exploration as well.

Additionally, Venti will be featured on the other banner. He is amazing at crowd control against smaller mobs. If you like him as a character or are collecting all the Archons, you can go for him. Otherwise, it isn’t recommended to waste your Primogems on him.

The 4-star character lineup is decent. Fazuran and Beidou can be great support and sub-DPS in some team comps, while Yanfei is a solid DPS for beginners but falls short compared to other Pyro damage dealers.

Peak Patrol Song and Elegy for the End are Xilonen’s and Venti’s signature weapons, respectively. The 5-star Sword provides a lot of DEF, so it’s good for characters like Xilonen and Chiori. Meanwhile, Elegy for the End is one of the best weapons for sub-DPS and support units like Venti, Yelan, Fischl, and Faruzan.
