YA BOI IS BACK

im just gonna start this guide off by saying XING TIAN IS BACK AFTER A WHOLE MONTH BABY!!! and to celebrate his return i will give you the guide on how to wash and dry the enemy team as everyone's favorite Washing machine.

How to put your washing machine together

The whole point of a washing machine is to be big and inconvenient to move so your 1st part will be hide of the urchin (xing is really good at building stacks so dont worry about stack items) to give you magical protection physical protections and health plus the early shield. the you getShoes of focus for the cooldown and then Stone of Gaia for the nice little regen which works in tangent with his passive btw. Then get Breastplate of Valor for even more cooldown and protections followed by Gauntlet of thebes for the health and more tankyness and finish it all off withMantle of discordfor yet again more protections Plus the stun at 30% health (which will never happen this build can 2v1 2 ymirs(tested btw)). this build should make you one tanky boi which means you are truly undying due to his passive with stone of gaia since you regen plus your passive giving you INCREASED hp5 by hitting abilities so basically 2 things healing you like a mofo. Damage items aren't needed because as everyone knows come endgame guardians do more than mages cause gee their scaling is perfectly balanced (SEND HELP) EDIT: Gauntlet and hide switched places so magical defense comes sooner....plus your first item will now be boots

The Normal cycle

This is your wave clear ability doing really big damage plus d.o.t damage afterwards. it travels in a straight line stopping at max range going through everything including other gods. they also lose basic attack power because damaging someone by nerfing them is fun. KHEPRI SURE KNOWS HOW IT FEELS TO GET NERFED ALOT

Towels/Bedding

this is your second ability in which case you leap up knocking up enemy gods in front of you,then come crashing down rooting every god in radius making the enemy wish they weren't born in this generation. both the knockup and the root do damage so yeet yeet skeet on that neith.........

Quick cycle

This is your 3rd setting where you can leap to a certain spot causing damage and then withing 3 seconds leap again like a demented game of leap frog. while in the air you gain increased protections which refresh if you connect the crashing down part. landing does the damage but you can leap pretty far Twice so he's good at escaping since it even goes through walls.

The Spin cycle

IS THE ENEMY PLAYING SO DIRTY THAT YOU JUST WANNA TAKE THEM ALL WASH THEM OFF AND THEN DRY THEM? Well thats where your ult comes in taking 1 second to startup making you cc immune then hooking everyone caught in your spin, spinning everyone 3 times doing damage each spin and then throwing them to the direction you're looking. this abilty alone makes you a threat not to mention that even if they beads the spins count as attacks so they still take damage.this abilty does it all, Waveclear,position enemys, setup combos, making this machine the most effective machine since the atom bomb.

How your machine works

your combo is usually gonna be blink into your ultimate then once they're thrown immediatly throw your one. then hit your 2 and pick off any survivors trying to retreat with your 3 to not only secure kills but to also make your enemy f7 so hard they call for Hi-Rez to remove xing tian for another month becauseONE MAN CANNOT HAVE TOO MUCH POWER MUAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA

Thank you

Thanks for coming to check out my guide if you have any god suggestions or requests put them in the comments, if you know any other counters or combos leave those in the comments as well. also i will not be doing a khepri guide seeing as everyone already seems to have him covered if i do khepri it will probs be auto attack so just a heads up....... and remember.......**** MERLIN AND HIS PEWDIEPIE LOOK

Actually a solid build, because it sees the absolute power in Stone of Gaia and hp5 regen. I however think the BoV could definitely be an item that can be swapped for a Benji's Guard if you're up against more magic opponents than physical. Or if the damage is low, a Chronos Pendant tops your CDR off and you can just make the spin cycle rinse twice as hard.

Overall, build achieved the goal, played to Xing's strengths and covers his weak mana pool, and has left a handful of opponents squeaky clean.

This is one of the best write ups I've ever seen on here. Not my ideal build but I've barely used Xing so I can't comment on the build. Take me +1 for the amount of laughter this brought to me.

(143) |

This is why I have trust issues with the voting system.

(1) |

Should we only +1 the top elite builds? Should I not +1 someone who has some knowledge of game and builds? It's a decent build, you don't have to +1 it so it won't be voted as high as some of the better builds, but it won't be at the bottom along with the trash.

Sorry I don't only +1 the elitist few builds. This is more than just an elitist site even though it feels SUPER elitist at times. I'm sorry for being an average joe that likes this site for more than just builds.

This build in its current state is not bad to the point of needing a downvote. It may not be optimal, but it's far from awful.

I think the comment has carried the feelings from the original build, and of course Kriega doesn't have a sense of humor XD.

You absolutely don't have to +1 or -1 any builds in particular. Each member has their own preferences, so just keep doing as you see fit.

(105) |

pretty much most people downvote bad stuff
don;t vote on mediocre stuff (or if they lack the knowledge themselves)
and upvote on well detailed or good written guides/info

(81) |

Yep, but it's what we have to work with.

(81) |

Support: , , 3 x s and s to start. Full build would be something along the lines of , , , , situational items like , , , , , and as needed. Skip stone if your ADC isn't clearing the wave very quickly and you need extra defenses. Swap out stone and shoes for situational items. Relics would be , , , , and .

Solo: same start as support though you can swap out the blessing for and get teleport glyph instead of blink.
Full build: , //. Which one of these I build first depends on my opponent: bov for a physical opponent and void for a magical one; I'd build Pest 2nd or 3rd if my lane opponent had some type of sustain. You can also consider , but you don't need both genji's and bov in the same build. The rest of the build would be , (or void if I hadn't built it early), situational items. Solo doesn't need as many aura items, so it's a pick and choose depending upon your matchup.

(143) |

>"but you don't need both genji's and bov in the same build."

Why not? You sell boots lategame, genji's + bov is good mana sustain + near max cdr. Lategame you're not going to prioritise blue buff and you can get power pot for the last 10% cdr. Alternatively you could just sell breastplate late for mantle if you get like a spirit robe or something later in the build. Maybe im not giving an ideal build idea though, since im thinking in terms of Chronos solo (where the cdr is greatly beneficial), but Xing can benefit from different items.

(81) |

Maxing CDR is why I mentioned that. Plus there's already void stone, hide, and Thebes for magical protections.

I mean't Genji's in place of Void Stone.

(81) |

I like void because it provides protection reduction, but it all depends on what blessing you start out with. Solo doesn't necessarily need to start out with guardians, you can go mage's if you think you'll be able to clear the wave quick enough. There's also what type of boots you get: magi versus focus. I can see bov & genji's together, but where would you get your pen?

One almost core item I forgot to mention is . Since you'll usually be trying to catch 2 or more enemies with your ult, the extra mitigation can help keep you alive while you're casting it. Plus the other stats aren't anything to sneeze at.

(143) |

If you get bov and genjis then you get magi shoes.

(81) |

Yes, but that's only 10 pen. maybe? Though Xing can proc on his 1 & 4.

(143) |

Why the hell do you need obsidian? You aren't going to be killing tanks by yourself as a solo laner.

(81) |

Yes, but you need more than 10 pen, no? I'm not trying to argue with you here, Kriega, I'm trying to learn. What I'm wondering is do you need more than just the 10 pen from shoes, and if so, where do you get it from? I threw shard out there as an example.

(143) |

You can build E-staff which I only realised today doesen't require pen, or you could go magus at some point in the build or deso/divine.

I probably would go Void Stone over Genji's though for Xing if you want to solo an enemy carry or you want the passive to help magical teamamtes.

Soul Reaver also works better with pen if you want to build it, also all of Xing's abilities are damaging (like Terra) so you could consider Reaver over E-Staff.

typical (bruiser/slightly damage focused) build for Xing solo: pen boots, breasplate, void stone, reaver, urchin, spirit Robe, sell boots for magus, sell breastplate for mantle lategame. This is just a generic bruiser example that focuses on anti-burst. If you want to go even more bruiser oriented you could get gem of iso (or E-staff) before reaver and swap urchin for reaver.

(Xing hasn't been appearing this season for the most part).

Edit: also I forgot Xing has a dot on his 1 which is great for magus.

(81) |

I think it's because he was disabled until very recently; it was over a month? Anyway, I can see e-staff working out well for him; also, magus can proc three times on his ult, and all five if you catch an enemy will all three swings, hit them with his 2, then breathe on them.

(143) |

Im not 100% sure about nemian/thorns on support, usually would recommend for solo instead, not that you can't buy it on a support but if you're in the enemies face reflecting through nemians/thorns then who is peeling for the backline?

(81) |

The solo laner. Xing's very much an aggressive guardian who's engaging the enemy. But thorns is pretty situational. How do you feel about frenzy?

Frenzy could work with good co-ordination and if you don't need other relics like Shell or sprint.

thats not feedback thats a full guide.....however i do respect your "feedback" either way and do appreciate the thought however this is what YOU would build on these roles. remember we all build differently and although this is a standard build for these roles i'm not gonna change my guide completely based on what others would build. if it was just the order fine i can change that around but i'm not gonna overhaul my entire build based on whats the norm. i respectfully decline following by these builds , but i do appreciate the thought put into your feedback.

(143) |

We build differently because it depends on what the match itself dictates would be suitable, you can't just list 1 generic build and expect it to be optimal in every match. Just because you want to be indie with your builds doesen't mean it's going to be good.

(81) |

No, those are just builds. It's fine that you don't want to use them, but I cannot in good conscience recommend your builds. Your build was good, this I don't think is.

i dont want my builds to be recommended i just want to get reactions from the community. though i'll keep my true motives to myself.

(81) |

You already know how I feel about your write-ups, but they don't factor in how I judge whether to up-vote or down-vote your build. I'm not offended that you won't take my feedback into consideration and I hope you aren't offended that I down-voted your guide based on the items you recommend. It's your guide and you can do with it what you want. You at least have an understanding of how the gods you write these meme guides for work unlike some of the people who come here and post really awful builds that make me wonder if they actually know what they're talking about.

(143) |

The thing is, it's good when not only you understand how the god works but how to build as well.

(143) |

At least it got "slightly" fixed, when I suggested getting thebes earlier than Urchin.

(143) |

So only magical defense is from Mantle, and tiny bit from urchin? Where is the dedicated magical defense item in this build?

(1) |

i build urchin before boots because as you stated im absolutely fraging in lane....jk i usually build urchin before boots but sometimes on very rare occasion i build a dedicated magic defense item but usually i don't end up needing too

(394) |

Kriega, Urchin early, Gauntlet + Mantle is what he has late.

(143) |

Still doesen't change my point, that being the lack of dedicated magical defense item.

Also if he's buidling Urchin after boots he must be absolutely fragging in lane. (Or is that before boots? Sigh...)

Hence my comment below.

As I'm seeing it, these aren't troll builds, just not really that good. The troll is in the writeup, and it's meant for entertainment, but I don't get here that he's looking to make a terrible build.

(143) |

We're not just meant to look at the build as a whole, but how the build progresses, no major magical defense until mantle is just setting this up to be a terrible build.

(394) |

I don't necessarily agree that a "dedicated magical defense item" is always necessary. I do believe many of the magical prot items DO have good function, and it would be my preference to get items like Void, Pest (situationally), etc., but if your whole point is to get magical protections, technically this build has plenty of it. Dual protections from Urchin, Mantle, Thebes, are quite nice in a general sense.

(143) |

Not always, but it is necessary against a standard team comp, or a team comp with at least 1 magical tank and 1 magical dps or 2 magical dps.

I forgot about Thebes, but there is still a problem, the magical defense is coming online too late with mantle and thebes being bought last. Switch order of Thebes and Urchin and I think the build would be better. Urchin on it's own just isn't going to cut it for magical prots for the early to mid game.

(1) |

done-zo

(81) |

And I agree, which is why I down-voted it. I'll provide feedback if Khep is willing to listen and I know what role this is for. But Bran pretty much covered everything already, which is why I haven't said much of anything.

(1) |

im always willing to listen so fire away

(81) |

What role is this for? I would build solo differently than support.

(394) |

This isn't for Conquest.

(46) |

>isn't for conquest
>has guardian's blessing
What

(143) |

Im not 100% sure that guardians blessing is only suitable in conquest, I know it can be valid in assault for example.

(394) |

Okay maybe it is. Though I also consider guardians for some Gods in joust, clash, assault, etc., so don't consider it exclusive.

(143) |

No, it's for magical fantasy land where we don't need to think properly about when and why certain items are built, hence why I had to comment here in the first place.

(1) |

calm your **** i updated the ****ing build

(143) |

Okay self proclaimed "meme-ster".

(17) |

LMFAO

(143) |

Switch place of Urchin and Thebes. Also get Thebes after boots, not before.

(1) |

gotcha

(394) |

Trust me, brotha, I agree. I tried to provide some explanation and examples in my other comment.

(46) |

He's your brotha now? I thought he was the red haired step child?

(143) |

I thought you were the step-headed red child?

(81) |

He is. You're our potted plant.

(17) |

Then what does that make me

(143) |

A cockroach.

A *****roach

Jealousy doesn't befit you, Boog.

Most likely intentional, but you said relocs when clearly it's spelled relcs.

(1) |

it was intentional

(394) |

XD intentional fail (by NitroC)???

(81) |

Or Fal?

(1) |

i feel like my ****posts are becoming less and less like ****posts.....

(105) |

Even though the build may be more legit. The write up makes my day.

(394) |

Needs . And shoes first. And no Gaia.

but gaia heals you along with the increased hp5 plus you have less health if you get void instead

(1) |

it may not give protections but it still gives a metric ****ton of health which is good for xing tian considering either way your build will hit 325 protections

(394) |

You don't really ever WANT to hit 325 protections. As you build more and more, items built against you like and (and / / for health) become more and more effective.

Also, there are diminishing returns on protections.

If that was a straight slope, super-high protections would be great. As it is, your sweet spot is usually somewhere in the realm of 200ish. At which point, you want to get more health and more mitigation if you're going for tanky.

Gaia is great for health, yes, and depending on game mode, the HP5 can be very nice. I consider Gaia a very strong item for a mode like Assault, especially in the absence of a team healer.

But you can get plenty of health through other items, and most of the other items will also provide more functional utility than what Gaia does. This build has no real counter function options in it...no anti basic attack (e.g. Midgardian or Nemean), no anti-heal (Pest), no mitigations (Spirit or Oni), and no CC reduction (Reinforced, Oni, etc.).

In addition, no fun alternate items like Ethereal or Gem.

And I still advocate in many cases. Xing can deal some decent damage, and he's going to want to be in the enemies' faces, so the damage potential from Void is really nice.

(81) |

Don't forget . I don't know if it'll proc on , but it will proc on .

(394) |

I didn't forget it, but I'm not suggesting here because it's a full offensive item and the concept here is tank. At least the other utility items I suggested provide some defensive benefits. That's why.
