He's Now Better Than Ever! - UPDATED Xiao Build Guide

Shia can conquer all his enemies and today I'll be telling you how to build him best let's get into it four pce Vermilion Hereafter so the set grant Shia tons of attack based on him losing HP and this is quite good for him when playing in his best and Slot teams sha gets so much damage bonus from his own burst farina's burst farzan's burst and shanon's weapon if you have it attack becomes a super high value stat in these teams but if you're already playing Shia with a likes of Bennett and are using primordial spear over H and if huge sources of attack already vermilion's Buffs won't be as strong but take a look at this comparison Bennett Shia with four piece Vermilion and two piece two piece Shia as you can see Vermilion is still the best choice even with a ton of attack in your party Shia's Taylor Made set is sadly just not as impactful in the way emblem of severed fate would be for Ryden jumping from two Electro to the bless so now four piece mayonnaise Hunter the two-piece uh it can work if you're using a certain combo against bosses or weaving in your lawn procs now for the four piece so Shia gives himself crit rate via Ascension and if you use shanan that's even more crit rate so why choose this set Shia does very large individual damage instances if one of your plunges don't crit it's a big DPS loss it isn't as bad for a character like alyam who is fine if they don't land every hit is a crit mise hunter gets your crit rate so high but you can assure crits on nearly every plunge and has natural Synergy with it since he has his own HP lost mechanics so you don't even need to bring finina to make use of this set it will actually end up being stronger than Vermillion Hereafter and then two piece two-piece sets these include two-piece attack percent and animal percent you can also play attack percent attack percent together this can end up being the strongest choice for your sh if it has the strongest sub stats these are raw unconditional bus which will be fine in all of shouts teams one configuration will be better than the other depending on your team if you have a ton of damage bonus already two attack two attack may be best for you I would say experiment with what you have and see what grants you the best subs Shia has two main stat routes the generally best attack percent animal percent crit percent or attack percent attack percent crit percent sometimes if you have a much stronger attack percent goblet and you have overflowing damage bonus in your team an attack goblet can serve you fine animal percent will be stronger on the whole but you can make do with the former here's a comparison so you can see yourself as for sub stats simple he ascends with crit rate but you want as much rate as possible and for sh to do solid damage as a hyper carry you want a huge amount of crit damage 70 plus to 200 plus goes for both fourstar and five-star weapon shs I genuinely recommend as much attack as you can get on top of that 2,000 is too low in my opinion so 2,100 would be my recommended break point for a four-star weapon sh at least 2,200 being ideal a five-star weapon Shia build should aim for 2,400 attack at least and a range of 2,400 to 2,600 would be ideal so Shia's ER depends on comp and the favs in your team if you're playing triple animal you can get away with quite low ER and invest more into offensive Subs but a traditional Shia hyper team is going to want to stay more sustained after all the majority of Shia's damage needs his burst to activate I recommend playing favonius on supports like farizon Gan shanan and J Lee sh sets are all highly accessible strong box Vermilion two-piece twopiece sets or Farm the resent efficient mayonnaise Hunter pick what has the best substats and what synergizes best of your team of choice great we've covered the lamenters artifacts let's look at his weapons so the ageold question who would win in a fight Shia or his C4 who wins primordial Jade spear or staff of homma Firsts R1 J spear standard weapon but not so standard performance on Shia pretty great for him actually with massive base attack which he really wants and a passive that continues to fuel him with attack also you get Stell points if you combine the crit he gets from his weapon with his Ascension you get 46.3% crit rate you can also use normal attack caniles in between plunges to stack the passive faster then R1 H huge stat stick also big base attack and lots of crit damage the passive is also solid in the teams it works in so why hom over primordial Jade Wing spear well in a high investment sh team beats pjws this is because you get all of H's benefit up front Jade Spear's passive stacking always finishes at the end of shanon's buff duration you also use up most of farina's fanfare by the point of fully stacking p jws is passive it all boils down to artifact investment pjws is a higher DPR and will be better for longer lasting rotations but homo will do more damage during the plunges a chanon Buffs so at high artifact investment you'll hit HP thresholds faster all right right now that that Wars out of the way let's see Shia's other great choices R1 Calamity quiller gives Shia access to easy attack and damage bonus buff it's pretty easy to use and you don't have to do anything strenuous to stack Weller's passive decent R1 Vortex banisher is also considerable for a low to mid investment sh but still using Jang Le you can really make use of the passive easily with him and get a ton of attack out of it which Shia teams really want but once you upgrade to the higher end sha comps this guy falls off quite a bit worst five star options for him which will still be viable are scarlet Sands and Skyward spine they don't provide sha with much else other than stat sticks but they will work if you have nothing else for him now for Shia's four-star weapons I will warn that Shia does perform a lot worse without a five star weapon as a hyper carry he wants expensive gear I will cover the very best four stars you can use to get decent performance out of sha if a fourstar isn't mentioned here it's because it's flat out bad R5 Deathmatch is Shia's strongest four-star Choice expensive but will get you more desirable performance over other fourstar picks even at R1 this fella is a great pick giving sha plenty of crit and attack percent free to plays have access to two decent Shia options black Cliff Pole or missive windspear R5 black Cliff gives Shia tons of attack and will be your budget home nice stats for a four-star weapon the passive is quite conditional and won't be relevant in Boss Chambers or Chambers where the individual enemies have huge HP counts it'll be your best free Shia pick it'll also work well at R1 R5 missive wind Spears passive can last nearly all of Shia's burst duration and give him lots of attack just make sure you have a bunch of crit value in your artifacts to compensate good freeto playay choice if you are around for the event R5 fonus Lance is also not a complete me on Sha but only if you're not playing him as a carry Shia can hold 4vv and drive a national comp while still contributing some of his own damage he can be a solo animal with enough er2 now for two rather conditional weapons R5 lithic Spear and R5 Prospectors drill yeah I bet you didn't know about the drill either r five liic spear can be nice if you're running a team with mostly leoa units but Sha's best in slot team you'll only ever have Shan Yun adding up to two in the team worse yet if you use C4 gen over Shan Yun then sha will be the only Leo in in the team quite conditional and it's not as good at R1 you want the refinements if it fits your circumstances go for it and it's not a bad pick in such a case r five prospector's drill is a funny one and underground sorry Banner weapon with a passive that'll only proc after Shia's first rotation so it'll start to be effective on the second rotation and you have to delay using sha skill after casting his first burst otherwise you'll proc the passive too early but hey High base attack and some nice attack perc and damage percent usable if you own it but don't go specifically for it I will recommend getting H or Jade for Shia there such huge increases for him and a five star weapons deserved since he's a hyper carry otherwise Shield 10 bucks to get a death match black Cliff pole is your only ever meaningful option by the way if you enjoying the video why not consider liking and subscribing maybe even leaving a cool comment down below if you don't then Shia is going to catch you in 4k so who will we be pairing with our short gang none other than this collection of drama queens Shia farizon Fara shaan is easily Shia's new best team farizon has been a huge buff to Shia since her release no questions asked T of R shred animal bonus percent crit stats is C6 energy battering mold gripping and some buffing with either TM or n bless contrary to popular belief farizon is playable pre C6 in Shia teams 220% ER will do and let her hold a Fab she'll still be a huge boost to Shia's damage even at c0 Shia's best in slot support across all his teams Barina is excellent with Shia there's a natural Harmony between the two with Shia having HP lost mechanics in his kit Bina provides a bunch of damage bonus percent which Shia still enjoys a lot even though he is so much himself self oh plus and plenty of extra sub DPS from Fin's end fantastic teammate for Shia Additionally you should be playing Shia with healer anyway so finina demanding one is not a big deal Shian is Shian nuts nuts taste so good four piece very decent buff buff fina's damage for higher team DPS or four piece song of days pass to boost shs damage your call the bless is a fine team buffing set CH can wear to A1 gives sh plunging crit and A4 gives sh plunging Buffs based on her attack not to mention her wonderful healing which synergizes especially well for reena's Fanfare thanks to it never being a front-loaded blast Nova Chan plunges not Collision plunge damage is what Shia deals when he lands on the ground Collision is any hit you do on enemies while still in the air let's talk about alternatives for this team yolan can work over finina you would have to weave in normals between each plunge you can get some of yolan sub DPS in you'll also get some damage bonus percent through yon's ramping A4 Jee can work over xianan quite easily but won't be able to use four piece song of days past she becomes an extremely competent sh buffer at C4 as well Bennett can also be stuck in place of finina or Jee for a pretty powerful outcome though healing the full team with finina on board might get a little Annoying triple animal in general is an extremely strong setup for sh feel free to replace farino with the likes of Bennett or jangi as well the team will still work fine next up we have the traditional tried and TR Shia hyper carry teams Shia Bennett animal battery and Jong Lee or Shia farizon C4 Jee or shanon albo J Lee Animo batteries for Shia include Verizon shanon fa genene C1 sacri sucros Kaza and venty shush I'm coping Bennett has always been Shia's traditional buffer you want a lot of ER on Bennett here as a solo pyro at least 250% or run him on fonus at the expense of lower attack buffing Skyward blade is a nice Middle Ground good healer and buffer for him on the whole Jang Le ah yes Shia's adoptive f f Dragon gives shiao lots of protection with his Shields and love and can hold to TM to buff attack for the whole team he can hold F to give the team ER which I personally recommend you do the 20% Universal red shred is also excellent as farzon is currently animal's only source of red shred your animal should always be farzon if you can use her I've said why she's good otherwise despite having Jong Le in his traditional teams Jin can still be a good unit to use no bless gives her buffing capabilities and she generates good particles of favonius and receive form makes Gene the next best thing if your far is onless Shan in a similar spot if you can't use farizan as a sole animal slot then you can use shanan for her buffing C1 sack fruk Rose isn't that bad if you're free to play you get a ton of energy particles from her and you can run sets like TM on her if C1 gives enough energy to your sh you can even run R5 tdds and sros and buff sha even more em buffing gets wasted here but it's a cool alternative use case for sucros these next two choices are a bit more copium cosinga is a bit wasted here fantastic unit with most of his qualities in buffing and VV shredding sure on fill battery Shia just fine and his grouping is nice and Shia pushes enemies away but I think that Maple man has better use cases for himself personally workable if you want to use it though as much as I love Shia and venty together they don't work well vent's burst lifts enemies too high for sha to plunge upon and if you leave venty at a lower level Shia can hit the enemies inside but that's wasting your vent's full potential cute but not a real combo as for the double geoc core Shia needs to heal himself so immediately recommend C4 gen and Shan Jean is fine without cons too but she's much better with if your sh a super high investment and can clear all of Abyss without a Healer then faram will work fine we know why jangl is good as I explained earlier albo provides GE residence and offers a lot of sub DPS which Shia can consistently trigger sadly his em share is kind of whatever here either way a fairly strong unit in this sh team though I wouldn't go out of my way to pull him for Shia if you don't have him already do without for farizon instead ah yes spending for farizon on that went well for me so those were Shia's carry teams he his driver setups too 4vv Shia can drive National dealing his own personal DPS and swirling everyone's elements it's an okay team will be nice for free to plays who want to play Shia but don't all have all his expensive teammates yet you can hone in on Shia a little more by playing double pyro Shia replace the hydro and Shia National for any of the animals that you can play with Shia and then buff his damage while still playing with Shang Ling's powerful subd PS a solid dual carry set up which I prefer over sha gun boy that was a lot to take in drink some water I have a Brea perhaps a bride of Alman tofu cool good job forgetting through that let's head on to sh's towns there will be some interesting facts at the end of this section but first Sha's normals he'll deal six physical strikes in a row nothing too special here he's become more interesting after use his burst Shia skill is very straightforward he'll Rush towards enemies and deal some animal damage generating particles his skill is to charges you can do this quickly one after another good stuff then for sh's burst this is what enables the rest of his kit to truly shine he puts on a mask because that's what the point of the Mask is and all his damage gets converted to animal damage including his normals and charge attack his jump pip will be massively increased and soul will shs AOE and attack damage this burst is what turns him into a poo Stick Boy and lets him lament all over the place his Kit's super straightforward but he's a fossil himself as well as a fossil unit so what do you expect old men these days as for sh's Ascension passive his A1 lets him deal up to 25% more damage after 15 seconds of pass dealing 5% more after every 3 seconds during his burst pretty darn good A1 having straight up more unconditional damage is always excellent Shia a 4 gives his second skill 15% more damage if you use it within 7 Seconds of his first skill and if you have C1 this effect Stacks in your third skill will deal 30% more damage de A4 but more relevant for C6 players who use Shia skill constantly Shia's Talent priorities are simple his plun is scale off his normal so level them first his burst is what enables his plunges to do large amounts of damage off the source of the plunge scalings himself his skill does some not worthy damage so level it you can see how much of a damage contribution his skill does and at C1 here's how much my contribution increases so not huge but it's something plus I seriously recommend going for 1089 over 988 8 you get a massive increase out of doing so here's how much he does at 988 and 1089 it's very substantial and Warth your resources to upgrade begging you not to stay at 888 you're missing out so much potential damage shs burst is additive to other damage bonus sources like his goblet going from 8 to 10 10 is around the 10% increase which isn't huge but I still think it's worth leveling to 9 especially if you Crown his normals cool side tip counseling sh's normals his normal is two Parts a swing of the spear and then a Thrust SP your normal attack button and jump button at the same time to consistently cancel the second part of his normal attack animation this helps you stack weapon passes faster like pjws if you're using Yan you can procer dice faster all right cool those are the ins and outs of Shia's gameplay what if you want to take them to the next level let's have a look at Shia's cons so having a C1 allows you to lower shr requirements and put more into his offensive stats you'll primarily use it for funneling energy at the beginning of a chamber since if you EQ you can't catch all the animal particles an all right con an essentially useless con after C1 you shouldn't be having a many ER problems don't get this on its own I beg of you increases his skill level by plus three it's fine and will make his skill more substantial I think this would be better positioned as a C5 considering a C6 but even so take the upgrade if you get it the best constellation inion impact I will literally find you and make you play hyper carry Yow Yow if you don't pull for this Con literally better than my C6 R1 finina entirely single most powerful Con in existence I will find you if you don't pull for it increases his burst level by plus three good stuff useful enough damage increase but as I said earlier they should have been a C3 this changes sh's Talent priority to go skill and birth his skill becomes a much much more large part of his kit and his play style changes entirely it's okay for a C6 and you can get very fast clear times of it but you have to go through a slew of bad constellations to get to this one so keep that in mind good C6 but not the strongest C6 Shia's cons are kind of a mess I'd go out on a limb and say don't pull for copies of him if you aren't getting a C6 Shia get him a festar weapon C6 power on and if you want to get calls in his team pull for C3 finina and C2 Shan young there'll be far more substantial increases to him than his own conss are well I love Chia and I have for a very long time it's been amazing seeing his journey of going from Zero to Hero power-wise and my own personal journey of seeing him do like two damage on death match to being a 200k beast he's an extremely strong hyper carry if you have all the tools he's part of the reason why I like venty so much and he's a truly goated character on the whole lore power level voice lines everything wholeheartedly recommend if you're willing to commit to how expensive he is high M for super high returns hopefully this guide was able to get your sh conquering his enemies to no end well then this has been juice signing out and I wish you all the day where you can admire a fat marketable plushy dancing among the Sea of flowers a sound of that wonderful flute peace
