Genshin Impact 5.1 Leaks Are Making Me Thrilled For Xilonen

Some new 5.1 leaks about Xilonen’s abilities are making me particularly thrilled about her release. Xilonen is a new Geo character from the region of Natlan, though very little is known about her aside from her design.

For reference, RES shred is, essentially, the reduction of an enemy’s natural resistance to certain types of damage. By reducing it, they become more vulnerable.

The rest of the leak mentions that, at C4 (Constellation level 4),
