Cyno Talent Priority

1st 2nd 3rd
Elemental Burst Elemental Skill Normal Attack

Cyno's Normal Attack during his Elemental Burst form does not scale with his Normal Attack talent. Since you will ideally be doing damage only during Cyno's Elemental Burst, his Normal Attack talent should be left untoched or for last.

Cyno Artifact Rankings

Artifact Artifact Bonuses
1st Genshin - Gilded Dreams Image Gilded Dreams 2-PC: Elemental Mastery +80
4-PC: Within 8s of triggering an Elemental Reaction, the character equipping this will obtain buffs based on the Elemental Type of the other party members. ATK is increased by 14% for each member whose Elemental Type is the same as the equipping character, and EM is increased by 50 for every member with a different Elemental Type. Each of the buffs will count up to 3 characters. This effect can be triggered once every 8s and even when not on the field.
2nd Genshin - Thundering Fury Image Thundering Fury 2-PC: Electro DMG Bonus +15%
4-PC: Increases damage caused by Overloaded, Electro-Charged, Superconduct, and Hyperbloom by 40%, and the DMG Bonus conferred by Aggravate is increased by 20%. When Quicked or the aforementioned Elemental Reactions are triggered, Elemental Skill CD is decreased by 1s. Can only occur once every 0.8s
3rd Genshin - Gladiator Gladiator's Finale 2-PC: ATK +18%.
4-PC: If the wielder of this artifact set uses a Sword, Claymore or Polearm, increases their Normal Attack DMG by 35%.

Cyno's best artifacts will depend on what weapon he uses. With the Staff of Scarlet Sands, Cyno's best artifact will be the Guilded Dreams. Without the Staff of Scarlet Sands, you're better off using Thundering Fury or Gladiator's Finale (if you have very good Sub-stats).

Bonus Stat: CRIT Rate 22.1%
Skill Effect: On hit, increases ATK by 3.2% for 6s. Max 7 stacks. This effect can only occur once every 0.3s. While in possession of the maximum possible stacks, DMG dealt is increased by 12%.

Bonus Stat: CRIT DMG 66.2%
Skill Effect: HP increased by 20%. Additionally, provides an ATK Bonus based on 0.8% of the wielder’s Max HP. When the wielder's HP is less than 50%, this ATK Bonus is increased by an additional 1% of Max HP.

Cyno has a flexible set of 5-star weapons with CRIT as a substat being their common ground. Without these 5-stars, good 4-star weapons that increase CRIT like the Deathmatch are very good alternatives.

Bonus Stat: CRIT Rate 23.4%

This Cyno Hyperbloom team focuses on creating Dendro Cores from off-field Dendro and Hydro damage, then hitting those Dendro Cores with Electro attacks. This team comp also enables Aggravate and Spread reactions.

Cyno is a perfect fit for any kind of Aggravate team since it enhances his Normal Attack damage during his Elemental Burst! Nahida works particularly well with Cyno since Nahida's off-field Dendro damage can match Cyno's long on-field duration.

Cyno and Beidou can work if Cyno uses the Thundering Fury set or if Beidou has a high ER stat. You may also need to supplement your ER requirements with Favonius weapons on your supports.

Cyno Best Constellations

Recommended Constellations

Rating Constellation Effect / Merits
C1 ★★☆ • Increases Normal Attack speed during Elemental Burst.
C2 ★★★ • Increases Electro DMG Bonus when doing Normal Attacks.

C0 is Good Enough

Though Cyno's second constellation provides a whopping 50% Electro DMG bonus, none of his constellations drastically changes his playstyle. Getting a single copy of Cyno already ensures you are getting everything he has to offer!

Cyno Talents and How to Use

Cyno Playstyle

Cyno Role and Party Rotation

Cyno is a Main DPS who will need to be on the field nearly all of the time. This is because swapping to another character during Cyno's Elemental Burst form will immediately end it.

Because of this, you will need to use the Elemental Skills and Bursts of your Sub-DPS and Supports before using Cyno's Elemental Burst!

Cyno Rotation

Cyno's Attack Rotation during his Elemental Burst largely depends on if he's using the Thundering Fury artifact set or not.

Attack Rotation Without Thundering Fury

Attack Rotation E,Q, NA3E, NA5E, NA5, NA2E, NA5, NA2E, NA5, N2E

Legend:
e = Elemental Skill
Q = Elemental Burst
NA = Normal Attack
NA# = Amount of Normal Attacks (ex. NA2 = Two Normal Attacks)

You can fit 5 Elemental Skills during Cyno's Elemental Burst window, 4 of which should be used for the Endseer prompt.

You can use 1 Elemental Skill immediately after Cyno's Elemental Burst without interfering with the flow of Cyno's Ideal attack rotation.

Attack Rotation With Thundering Fury

Attack Rotation E,Q, NA2E NA4E NA4E NA5E NA4E NA4E NA5E

Legend:
e = Elemental Skill
Q = Elemental Burst
NA = Normal Attack
NA# = Amount of Normal Attacks (ex. NA2 = Two Normal Attacks)

Cyno's attack rotation with the Thundering Fury is somewhat complex. Ideally, you will want to fit at least 7 Elemental Skills during his Elemental Burst, but a big part of that involves constantly triggering Elemental Reactions.

There is also the issue of knowing when to use his Elemental Skill outside of the Endseer Prompt. Even dashing can cause you to lose the flow of combat, which will lead to a lower DPS overall.

If you can't do a total of 6-7 Elemental Skills, as well as not miss an Endseer prompt, then we can't recommend using the Thundering Fury set.

Normal Attack

Normal Attack: Invoker's Spear
Performs up to four consecutive spear strikes.
Charge Attack
Consumes a certain amount of Stamina to lunge forward, dealing damage to enemies along the way.
Plunge Attack:
Plunges from mid-air to strike the ground below, damaging opponents along the path and dealing AoE DMG upon impact.

Attribute Effect (Lvl 1)
1-Hit DMG 49.30%
2-Hit DMG 47.90%
3-Hit DMG 29.3%+29.3%
4-Hit DMG 75.90%
Charged Attack DMG 122.4%
Charged Attack Stamina Cost 25
Plunge Attack DMG 63.9%
Low/High Plunge DMG 128%/160%

Elemental Skill

Secret Rite: Chasmic Soulfarer
Performs a swift thrust, dealing Electro DMG to opponents along the path.
When Cyno is under the Pactsworn Pathclearer state triggered by Sacred Rite: Wolf's Swiftness, he will instead unleash a Mortuary Rite that deals thunderous AOE Electro DMG and extends the duration of Pactsworn Pathclearer.

Attribute Effect (Lvl 1)
Skill DMG 130.4%
Mortuary Rite DMG 156.8%
Pactsworn Pathclearer Duration Bonus 4s
CD 7.5s
Mortuary Rite CD 3s

Timing Cyno's Elemental Skill Properly

During Cyno's Elemental Burst, an Endseer State prompt will appear. You will want to use your Elemental Skill every time you see this prompt to deal more damage. There will be a total of 4 Endseer prompts during Cyno's Elemental Burst, so make sure not to miss them!

Luckily, this can be quite easy to accomplish (barring any interruptions). Endseer prompts are spaced out to match the cooldown of your Elemental Skill, so it's as simple as just using your Elemental Skill off cooldown.

Elemental Burst

Sacred Rite: Wolf's Swiftness
Calls upon a divine spirit to indwell him, morphing into the Pactsworn Pathclearer.
Pactsworn Pathclearer
Cyno's Normal, Charged, and Plunging Attacks will be converted to Electro DMG that cannot be overridden. Cyno's Elemental Mastery and resistance to interruption will increase, and he gains immunity to Electro-Charged DMG. This effect will be canceled when Cyno leaves the field and lasts a maximum of 18s.

Attribute Effect (Lvl 1)
1-Hit DMG 78.30%
2-Hit DMG 82.50%
3-Hit DMG 104.60%
4-Hit DMG 51.7%+51.7%
5-hit DMG 130.8%
Charged Attack DMG 101.10%
Charged Attack Stamina Cost 25
Plunge Attack DMG 63.9%
Low/High Plunge DMG 128%/160%
Elemental Mastery Bonus 100
Basic Duration 10s
CD 20s
Energy Cost 80

Passive Talent 1

Featherfall Judgment
When Cyno is in the Pactsworn Pathclearer state activated by Sacred Rite: Wolf's Swiftness, Cyno will enter the Endseer stance at intervals. If he activates Secret Rite: Chasmic Soulfarer while affected by this stance, he will activate the Judication effect, increasing the DMG of this Secret Rite: Chasmic Soulfarer by 35%, and firing off 3 Duststalker Bolts that deal 100% of Cyno's ATK as Electro DMG. Duststalker Bolt DMG is considered Elemental Skill DMG.

Passive Talent 2

Authority Over the Nine Bows
Cyno's DMG values will be increased based on his Elemental Mastery as follows:
• Pactsworn Pathclearer's Normal Attack DMG is increased by 150% of his Elemental Mastery.
• Duststalker Bolt DMG from his Passive Talent Featherfall Judgment is increased by 250% of his Elemental Mastery.

Passive Talent 3

The Gift of Silence
Gains 25% more rewards when dispatched on a Sumeru Expedition for 20 hours.

Use Cyno for Sumeru Expeditions

Genshin Impact - Use Cyno for Sumeru Expeditions
Cyno's Exploration Talent, ''The Gift of Silence'', gives 25% more rewards when dispatched on a Sumeru Expedition for 20 hours. Go ahead and use him for more Mora or Sumeru-exclusive items!

Thoughts About Cyno

Character In-Game Thoughts
Genshin Impact - Candace ImageCandace In the past, it was rare to see the Akademiya's General Mahamatra on this side of the Wall of Samiel, but recently he has been showing up here all the time. I believe that the Eremites have some truly terrifying stories to tell about him...
Genshin Impact - Collei ImageCollei Um... I'd rather not talk about him, if that's okay? Oh, no — the General Mahamatra isn't a bad guy or anything. Matter of fact, I have him to thank for bringing me back from Mondstadt to Sumeru and finding me a safe place to stay. It's just that... whenever I'm reminded of the sealing process just before leaving Mondstadt... ooh... the back of my neck starts hurting again...
Genshin Impact - Dehya ImageDehya The General Mahamatra? Doesn't suffer fools gladly, and certainly doesn't beat around the bush. Having seen the way he works, he gets a thumbs up from me.
Genshin Impact - Dori ImageDori You could say I know him. After all, I was the only merchant in all Sumeru who could acquire the full range of Genius Invokation TCG merch for him! Not bad, huh? I've gotta admit, it's pretty rare to see anyone from the. Akademiya like him... independent and with a good head on his shoulders. Plus, he's never been one to haggle over prices.
Genshin Impact - Faruzan ImageFaruzan Cyno's jokes are composed using modern words and language patterns, but I still struggle to decipher any hidden meaning from his grammar and prose... Huh? It's all just literal meanings and homophones? Really...? Then, those jokes don't have any substance at all...
Genshin Impact - Kaveh ImageKaveh Cyno can come across as cold and ruthless, but he's actually a very big-hearted guy. I still remember how shocked I was when Tighnari said he was gonna introduce me to his best friend, and then a couple of seconds later, an incredibly intimidating matra comes walking through the door... I honestly never expected to meet a matra who's so comfortable hanging out with scholars. Gotta say though, I can't stand his sense of humor. It really makes my skin crawl. If he ever invites you to a meal at Tighnari's place, make sure someone's bringing beer, because no one should have to endure Cyno's humor while sober.
Genshin Impact - Layla ImageLayla The General Mahamatra is really good at Genius Invokation TCG? Ooh, I wonder if... I mean, if I ever got the chance, maybe I could play a game with him. Card games like Genius Invokation TCG are always easier when you're good at mental math, so actually, I... I dunno, but... I might not necessarily lose to him.
Genshin Impact - Nahida ImageNahida Duty: Not every General Mahamatra would take such a clear-cut and decisive stance when faced with a conflict between order and justice. He must know only too well that compromise is a path that leads to a dead end, so it's extremely fortunate for all of Sumeru that he's now been able to return to his rightful post.
Jokes: His jokes are like buried treasure: gems hidden beneath the surface. They're a lot of fun. Hmm? Well, which part didn't you get? Okay, I can explain it for you.
Genshin Impact - Nilou ImageNilou I don't really like interacting with people from the Akademiya because they don't view the arts too kindly. I often wonder what they do when they're bored... Huh, Cyno plays Genius Invokation TCG? I can't believe it...
Genshin Impact - Sethos ImageSethos Cyno is truly outstanding — absolutely a worthy heir to Henrmanubis's power. As General Mahamatra, he has the utmost reverence for knowledge and wisdom. If the Akademiya and the Temple of Silence do start working together again, I'll take comfort in the fact that he's there. Oh yeah, and another great thing about Cyno: You know the way he talks? It's just... so funny.
Genshin Impact - Tighnari ImageTighnari You want to see Cyno...? Well, firstly, a word of caution: if he ever comes chasing you down for work-related reasons, prepare for the nightmare of a lifetime. Other than that, General Mahamatra is a high-ranking position, so it usually isn't easy to find him. But he does occasionally go to Gandharva Ville to see Collei. As much as he might want to stay unnoticed, he can't fool my ears, heh.

Cyno's Thoughts About Others

Character In-Game Thoughts
Genshin Impact - Alhaitham ImageAlhaitham About Alhaitham
I don't really like people who are too smart. They think they can control everything, and constantly venture to the fringes of danger. But Alhaitham is one of the more reliable ones. In most cases, he is actually in control of things and has the ability to avert potential disaster.
Genshin Impact - Collei ImageCollei About Collei
I once helped Collei seal away in her body, but the process was an unthinkably painful one. To many, enduring that kind of pain would be a prospect more terrifying than death, so it was very admirable that she was able to persevere through it.
Genshin Impact - Faruzan ImageFaruzan About Faruzan
I've carefully browsed through the case files regarding Faruzan's disappearance. At the time, I thought maybe she had been conducting some kind of dangerous research, but once I met her in person, I completely abandoned that idea. Though it might be a little hard for me to get along with her, she mostly reminds me of a kindly and chatty parent. She is considerate of others, and would never do anything imprudent.
Genshin Impact - Kaveh ImageKaveh About Kaveh
Tighnari and Collei never said it to my face, but they found Kaveh's personal anecdotes far more entertaining than the jokes I had prepared... I could see it on their faces. Hmm? What did I think about that? Well, I thought it was funny that they could laugh at such a situation.
Genshin Impact - Lisa ImageLisa About Lisa
Of course I know about Lisa, we both studied under the same sage. As General Mahamatra, I've seen many tragedies befall those seeking knowledge too assiduously, so it's easy for me to understand her decision.
Genshin Impact - Nahida ImageNahida About Nahida
Commenting on a god might be overstepping my position a little... But when I was working with her, I personally witnessed her wisdom, courage, and determination. Compared with those sages who constantly undermine and criticized her without a shred of evidence, I think I can provide a more reliable assessment: She is an exceptional deity who is worthy of everyone's respect.
Genshin Impact - Nilou ImageNilou About Nilou
I can sense her enthusiasm and passion for dancing - it has become an integral part of her being. I hope that she will always be able to use the art she loves to bring happiness to other people.
Genshin Impact - Sethos ImageSethos About Sethos
Sethos has a strong sense of responsibility. I have the utmost respect for his skill as a warrior, and I admire his courage. He's also been a great help to me personally, and I'm sure that cooperation between the Akademiya and the Temple of Silence will go very smoothly with him leading the Temple.
Nevertheless, he does have one flaw — he doesn't play nearly enough Genius Invokation TCG for my liking. Every time I invite him to play, he's either busy with work, about to go out for a meal, or has existing plans with other friends... Excuses, all of them! Are we not his best friends in all of Sumeru City?
Genshin Impact - Tighnari ImageTighnari About Tighnari
Knowledge: Tighnari is different from other scholars I've met. He has the same wholehearted dedication to knowledge, but he will never cross the most important boundaries. Some Scholars see themselves as gods within their own laboratories, but not Tighnari - he has always shown the same respect for every form of life. I've heard that he even declined a position in the Akademiya, and I support his decision.
Jokes: Tighnari once told me not to tell jokes at the dinner table, insisting that my jokes weren't funny at all. I did not share his opinion, so I told three of my best jokes in a row, and explained the premise of each in great detail. By the time I was done talking, my food was cold.
