Sweeping Fervor

Xinyan brandishes her instrument, dealing Pyro DMG on nearby opponents, forming a shield made out of her audience's passion.
The shield's DMG Absorption scales based on Xinyan's DEF and on the number of opponents hit.
·Hitting 0–1 opponents grants Shield Level 1: Ad Lib.
·Hitting 2 opponents grants Shield Level 2: Lead-In.
·Hitting 3 or more opponents grants Shield Level 3: Rave, which will also deal intermittent Pyro DMG to nearby opponents.

The shield has the following special properties:
·When unleashed, it infuses Xinyan with Pyro.
·It has 250% DMG Absorption effectiveness against Pyro DMG.

Xinyan insists that these pyrotechnics are the apex of performative art, and that they are physical phenomena that have nothing to do with her Vision.

Riff Revolution

Strumming rapidly, Xinyan launches nearby opponents and deals Physical DMG to them, hyping up the crowd.
The sheer intensity of the atmosphere will cause explosions that deal Pyro DMG to nearby opponents.

Xinyan used to end all her performances with this move. She didn't stop because it was dangerous, however, but because she didn't have a more epic finale in case someone shouted "Encore!"

• Notes:

While the Pale Flame will lead to greater damage output than the 2-set Physical Set build with its stacks, it is very difficult to gain them with Xinyan's skill despite its pyro pulses. The 2-set Physical Set build will be far more consistent.

• Best Weapon(s):

Favonius GreatswordWolf's Gravestone
Favonius Greatsword has a chance to generate Energy Particles for the entire team whenever the holder hits a CRIT. Xinyan's C2 eliminates the need to build CRIT Rate. Holder needs to be on-field.

Wolf's Gravestone grants an ATK% buff to the entire party whenever the holder hits an opponent under 30% HP. Holder needs to be on-field. Consider how often you'll be able to utilize its passive before picking this one.

• Notes:

4-piece Instructor is able to share Elemental Mastery for the entire party, most importantly to Hu Tao or Yoimiya making it Xinyan's best set for buffing. This comes at the cost of a slimmer shield and lower Energy Recharge due to it's 4-star maximum rarity.

Sacrificial Greatsword
Maximizes uptime. The shield is best considered at Level 3 which can be casted immediately after Bursting or hitting multiple enemies. If the additional Elemental Skill charge is used prematurely, you may lose the stronger shield and gain a weaker one.
Whiteblind

For the sake of reliability, this playstyle is only recommended when owning Xinyan at C2 or higher. This playstyle is generally only worth using if looking to run the Tenacity of the Millelith set when Diona or Zhongli are not available.

Stories

Rock 'n' roll originates in Fontaine and is just starting to find its feet in Liyue Harbor, where Xinyan is pioneering the art. Every night, she slings on her self-built instrument, steps onto her self-constructed stage, and plays her self-composed songs to a crowd of enthusiastic supporters. Her music reflects her personality: bold and defiant, loud and proud. She is no virtuoso, but this doesn't bother her dedicated fans one bit as they let loose and enjoy the show, singing their hearts out and shaking off the stress of the day. In the heat of the moment, the fire that leaps from Xinyan's Vision seems ready to turn night into day. "She is a rare rock 'n' roll talent and a master performer who really knows how to create an atmosphere," said a review of one of her live shows in The Steambird. Living in Liyue is expensive, especially when you want to enjoy the finer things in life. But as Xinyan would say to those tied down by worldly worries: "If you know how to rock, then it's easier to roll."
