Until his interlude, this skill is the first to prioritize. This skill is crucial for any Master wanting to loop, as Quick boosts natural NP gain.

Hard to Supportĭue to the nature of Xiang being meant for both Buster criticals and Quick Noble Phantasms, it is hard to get a perfect support for him.

Even worse, he has no Star gather, meaning unless he has a copious amount of stars available or the right luck, he won’t be able to use a Critical when needed. Tactical Body does make up for this a bit with a Quick and Buster up for three turns, but his base non-critical damage is not what makes him good. Xiang is capable of dishing out critical hits, but it is only a single turn of burst with a five/six turn cooldown at max level. Just be careful that he doesn’t make you part of the massacre too! Strengths Should a Master want a heavy critical damage dealer, they can’t go wrong with Xiang Yu. Like always, as a Berserker he also suffers from squishiness. He’s also difficult to support, as his Noble Phantasm favors Quick supports, and his cards/criticals favor Buster supports. Even if a Master was looking for one-turn criticals, Xiang Yu has no way to gather stars to himself before his interlude, and Berserkers have the worst natural star gather rates in the game. Xiang Yu’s criticals are great for a single turn, but are then stuck on a long cooldown. However, all of this madness comes with a price. This is further enhanced by his Ignore Invincibility on Arts of a Conqueror. Another huge strength is his multi-hit Quick AoE Noble Phantasm, which does make him a candidate for looping with a double Skadi setup. With two skills to boost his Critical damage via Foresight A++ and Tactical Body B, and a third to generate Critical stars with Arts of a Conqueror A, he winds up getting a whopping 100% Critical damage to add on top to his three Buster cards. Xiang Yu’s strength without a doubt is his ability to dish out the damage with Critical hits.

Xiang Yu was once a fierce rebel who ordered the mass murder of civilians in cities which surrendered peacefully, and in FGO he remains a brutal Berserker who destroys everything in sight with his Quick AoE Noble Phantasm and strong Critical hits.
