Guhua Sword: Fatal Rainscreen

Last updated 2026-09-10

"Easier to slay a rain dragon than to sever the rain."

Guhua Sword: Fatal Rainscreen is Xingqiu's Elemental Skill.

Gameplay Notes

  • When this skill hits at least one enemy, it generates 5 Elemental Particles.
  • The damage reduction of each Rain Sword instance can be broken down as follows: (20% base) + (up to 9% from talent levels) + (up to 24% as a portion of bonus Hydro DMG), leading to a max of 53% damage reduced.
  • The additional DMG Reduction from Hydro DMG Bonus will snapshot Xingqiu's stats on cast and will not be affected by changes in his stats that occur afterwards.[1]
  • The initial skill activation applies Wet to Xingqiu for 0.5s and wears off by the time the attack animation finishes.
  • Every 2.25s, orbiting Rain Swords will apply Wet to any enemies or objects that are in contact with your active character.
  • Rain Swords can be broken by damageless instances of knockback, such as Childe's Blast ability and Bennett's Charge Level 2 Passion Overload.
  • The shattering of Rain swords on his Elemental Skill has a cooldown of 1.5s before another rain sword can be shattered.[2]
Passive Effects
  • Passive Talent 1, Hydropathic Hydropathic: "When a Rain Sword is shattered or when its duration expires, it regenerates the current character's HP based on 6% of Xingqiu's Max HP."
    • With cooldown reduction or cooldown reset effects (such as with Sacrificial Sword), reusing the skill will prolong existing Rain Swords back to 15 seconds. This will not activate Hydropathic's healing effect, since the old Rain Swords did not shatter or expire.
Constellation Effects
  • Constellation Level 1, The Scent Remained The Scent Remained: "Increases the maximum number of Rain Swords by 1."
  • Constellation Level 4, Evilsoother Evilsoother: "Throughout the duration of Guhua Sword: Raincutter, the DMG dealt by Guhua Sword: Fatal Rainscreen is increased by 50%."
  • Constellation Level 5, Embrace of Rain Embrace of Rain: Increases this talent's level by 3, up to a maximum of 15.
