But Liandrys + Rylai's makes it so the proc does double damage on every autoattack you do doesn't it? That would make it 10% of his current health which is really strong... only problem is -> if you initiate with Audacious charge and then hit an Autoattack will the Liandrys proc do 10% or 5% dmg (because Charge is AoE)

No not every autoattack would proc Liandry's.

Basically, here's hows Xin's kit would work with Rylai's and Liandry's:

Passive: Has nothing to do with both items.
Three Talon Strike: Procs Liandry's (5% of current HP over 3 seconds). Does not proc Rylai's
Battle Cry and autoattacks: Nothing to do with those items
Audacious Charge: Will slow for an additional 15% (stacked slows are less effective though) and will proc Liandry's, dealing 5% of current HP over 1.5 seconds.
Crescent Sweep: Will slow for 15% and deal 5% of current HP over 1.5 seconds.

His ult already deals % of current HP,making Liandry's a lot less effective

Well, what do you want with resistances? In S3, most resistances get penetrated with ease anyway. There is a reason why people get Warmog's Armor on nearly any champ. And for Xin, he gets a good amount of resistances with his ultimate. With the combined amount of HP and resistances from ulti he can survive the initial burst and then start his healing game.

The build which includes Iceborn Gauntlet is basically a tank AP Xin, which mainly focuses onto utility. Obviously, Iceborn Gauntlet offers more utility than Lich Bane.

Rabadon's Deathcap I would get now aswell instead of Guinsoo's Rageblade, but I would still get it last. At the place of Guinsoo's Rageblade I would get Nashor's Tooth then.

Damage AP Xin:

Item Sequence

Sorcerer's Shoes 1100
Nashor's Tooth 3000
Malady 2035
Lich Bane 3100
Rabadon's Deathcap 3600

Utility AP Xin:

Item Sequence

Mercury's Treads 1100
Nashor's Tooth 3000
Malady 2035
Iceborn Gauntlet 2600
Runic Bulwark 2950

I like those builds except I wouldn't get Warmog's Armor first.

And nobody plays Sion because he is a bad version of Nasus imo

lol wtf no, Sion is a million times better than nasus, i'm insulted. Sion ****s most midlanes right up the *** and eats their jungler for breakfast. Nasus can't win a lane for his life.

Sure jungle Nasus is arguably better than jungle Sion and ad nasus is arguably better than sion, but Sion as a champion is way better.

I thought it was obvious that we were talking about top lane lol.

And even mid, AP Nasus is better than AP Sion. Come at me bro!

Utility wise, i think Sion works better. It would be comparable if Nasus' Wither could propagate like Chain of Corruption, or something...

either way, it's a Xin Zhao thread and i feel he's a couple of steps above both.

top nasus gets **** on by champions (and super minions) and only works vs scrubs, sion at least works versus some champions and some good players. AP Sion has no contest, considering if people weren't stupid he'd be a top pick :)

While I agree AP Sion is under rated, I think you are underestimate Nasus A LOT xD. Nasus has sustain, less mana problems and more range than Sion. I have no idea how Sion could be a better top than Nasus lol

And again, if you're talking about AP Sion top, try AP Nasus top and come tell me your comments about it after :P
