Xiangling is one the best Pyro DPS characters in Genshin Impact and you can get her for free! Here is our Xiangling Best Build Guide with all the Best Weapons and Artifacts for her.

Xinagling is 4-Star Pyro Polearm character in Genshin Impact. She is the Head Chef of the Wanmin Restaurant, which she co-owns with her father, Chef Mao. Xiangling, as a cook, isn’t hesitant to experiment with new recipes or “strange” ingredients, resulting in dishes that are sometimes rather distinctive. Everyone remembers her using Slime Secretions to make some strange dishes. She can be obtained for free in the permanent Spiral Abyss Event – People’s Choice by clearing Floor 3, Chamber 3 of the Spiral Abyss.

Xianling works best as a Sub DPS character in Genshin Impact. Pairing her with other characters to trigger elemental reactions results in huge damage output. She works best paired with Hydro and Cryo characters. You can also use Electro characters to trigger the overload reactions. You can also check out our Xinyan Best Build Guide and Diona Best Build Guide. Without further ado, here is our Xiangling Best Build Guide.
