This is not to say one is absolutely better than the other, as there are RNG factors too. The time difference may also be caused by longer burst animation, slightly better rotation, different cooldowns, etc. So I'm assuming both can clear it at about the same time.
But here's the condition:
- Bennett in both teams
- Xiao: using his 5* signature weapon, almost the best artifacts I can give (CR/CD ~80/180)
- Raiden: using 4* The Catch, still looking for better artifacts (CR/CD ~40/172)
- Xiao is paired with his best team to amplify Anemo damage
- Since Xiao has a bigger AoE than Raiden, I paired Raiden with Kazuha for a bit of CC
- But it won't be fair for Xiao to have no off-field damage support
- Instead, Raiden's team will only use 3 active characters to compensate
- Amber just to stand there (Pyro Resonance)
Fair enough? No.
Just like how everyone compares Raiden's DPS output to every other DPS carry.
Even though we all know she's not a pure DPS. This is unfair.
Raiden is more like team-play, just like any other Archon.
She obliterates with her team. She supports others and gets supported by others.
It's literally in her kit.
Moreover, the Xiao team is actually not usable in the normal Abyss (without the tide), he'll need 1 Anemo to battery Xiao. But Raiden's team will work just fine. And it's not that I don't Xiao, I main him since 1.3 and even pull on his weapon banner. My true carry before patch 2.0.
My message is:
Play whoever you want.
With Raiden's arrival, her playstyle is currently my favorite. It rivals Kazuha in terms of fun.
She's an Archon but who even said an Archon should be OP till they break the game. I'm happy though if she gets a buff or whatsoever, though I believe she doesn't need it. PLEASE JUST FIX HER INTERACTION WITH BEIDOU.
That's all. Feel free to comment however you like too if you don't agree with me.
