Skill Overview
Xilonen's kit revolves around her Elemental Skill (Yohual's Scratch), which allows her to enter the Nightsoul's Blessing state. In this state, she gains Source Samples that convert based on your team's elemental composition, enabling her to provide elemental resistance shred for Hydro, Pyro, Cryo, and Electro allies.

Yohual's Scratch
Elemental SkillXilonen enters the Nightsoul's Blessing state and gains 3 Source Samples (initially Geo element). Depending on your party members' elements (Hydro/Pyro/Cryo/Electro), these samples convert to match those elements.
Key Mechanic: When Xilonen's Nightsoul points are full (gained via Normal Attacks in Nightsoul state), she triggers Elemental RES Shred against nearby enemies for the corresponding elements.
Nightsoul's Blessing State:
- Switch to roller-blading combat style
- Normal Attacks consume Nightsoul points
- When Nightsoul points max out, triggers RES shred
- Can hold Skill to enter state without attacking
Skill Scaling (Level 1)

💡 Pro Tip: The resistance shred scales with DEF. At 2000 DEF, you get ~20% RES shred. At 3000+ DEF, you reach the maximum 33% RES shred.
Ocelotlicue Point!
Elemental BurstXilonen summons her Ocelot spirit to deal AoE Geo DMG based on her DEF. The effect changes based on the number of converted Source Samples:
Support Mode (≥2 Converted Samples):
- Heals the active character periodically based on Xilonen's DEF
- Provides sustained healing throughout the duration
DMG Mode (<2 Converted Samples):
- Deals additional bursts of Geo DMG
- No healing provided
Burst Scaling (Level 1)
- Burst DMG248% DEF
- Healing (Support Mode)52.6% DEF + 317
- Additional DMG (DMG Mode)124% DEF
- Duration9s
- CD15s
- Energy Cost60
⚠️ Important: Xilonen requires 60 Energy for her burst. With her Skill generating particles and potential Favonius weapon, aim for 180-200% Energy Recharge for consistent uptime.
Passive Talents
Netotiliztli's Echo
1st Ascension Passive (A1)When Xilonen triggers Shattered Nightgleam (max Nightsoul points), all nearby party members gain 10% increased Elemental DMG Bonus for the corresponding element of the converted Source Samples for 15s.
Effect: This provides a team-wide damage buff that stacks with the resistance shred, making Xilonen an even more powerful support.
Tonatiuh's Radiance
4th Ascension Passive (A4)Increases the Level of Yohual's Scratch by 3. Maximum upgrade level is 15.
Additionally, when Xilonen is in the Nightsoul's Blessing state, her resistance to interruption is increased.
Night Realm's Gift: Restored
Utility PassiveWhen Xilonen is in the party, she grants the Nightsoul's Blessing state to all party members, allowing them to interact with certain Natlan mechanisms.
Exploration Use: This is crucial for exploring Natlan, as it allows your entire team to use Nightsoul mechanics without Xilonen needing to be on the field.
Constellations
C1: Nahuatl's Blessing
Constellation Level 1After using Yohual's Scratch, Xilonen's DEF is increased by 20% for 15s. Additionally, the duration of Nightsoul's Blessing is extended by 3s.
Value: Nice QoL improvement. The DEF boost helps with both healing and resistance shred. Extension allows more time to trigger RES shred.
C2: Echoes of the Jaguar
Constellation Level 2When Xilonen triggers Shattered Nightgleam, all nearby party members gain 20% increased DEF for 12s. Additionally, the Elemental RES decrease effect is increased by an additional 6% (from 33% to 39%).
💎 High Value: This is Xilonen's best constellation. The extra 6% RES shred is significant, and the DEF buff helps the entire team.
C3: Ancient Wisdom
Constellation Level 3Increases the Level of Ocelotlicue Point! by 3. Maximum upgrade level is 15.
C4: Spirit of the Mountains
Constellation Level 4When Xilonen's Burst is in Support Mode, the healing frequency is increased by 20%. When in DMG Mode, the additional Geo DMG is increased by 40%.
C5: Eternal Night

Skills FAQ
Q: How does the resistance shred work?
A: When Xilonen maxes her Nightsoul points in her Skill state, she automatically applies RES shred to nearby enemies. The shred amount scales with her DEF, maxing at 33% (39% with C2).
Q: Does she need to be on-field to maintain RES shred?
A: No! Once triggered, the RES shred effect lasts for the duration and applies to enemies near her, even if you swap to another character.
Q: Can she shred Geo RES?
A: No. Xilonen can only shred Hydro, Pyro, Cryo, and Electro RES based on your team's converted Source Samples.
Q: How do I get Support Mode vs DMG Mode on her Burst?
A: It depends on your converted Source Samples. With 2+ converted samples (non-Geo), you get Support Mode (healing). With fewer than 2, you get DMG Mode.
