Genshin character birthday: everything about Cyno

6.23 is coming up, it is Cyno's birthday! Here we will introduce this game character. Those who already have Cyno but haven't gotten to know him yet, or those who don't have him yet, can take a look at our guide.

 

Welcome to the Genshin Impact character development guide, where we delve into the intricacies of nurturing the enigmatic Cyno. As a playable Electro character, Cyno is not just a formidable force on the battlefield; he's also a multifaceted personality that adds a unique flavor to your adventuring team.

 

As the esteemed General Mahamatra, Cyno commands the Matra with an air of authority that sends shivers down the spines of the scholars at Sumeru Akademiya. Yet, outside the halls of academia, Cyno reveals a lighter side. He has a penchant for the strategic card game, Genius Invokation TCG, and is known for his dry wit, often delivering jokes that are as unexpected as they are amusing.

Best Artifacts for Cyno

 

1. 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 8 seconds and even when not on the field.

 

2. 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 1 second. Can only occur once every 0.8 seconds.

 

3. 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%.

 

The optimal artifacts for Cyno are contingent upon his weapon of choice. When wielding the Staff of Scarlet Sands, the Guilded Dreams set emerges as the most suitable option for Cyno. However, should you not have the Staff of Scarlet Sands at your disposal, the Thundering Fury set is a solid alternative. Alternatively, if your artifact sub-stats are exceptionally high, the Gladiator's Finale set can also be a viable choice to maximize Cyno's potential in battle.

 

Best Weapons for Cyno

 

1. Staff of the Scarlet Sands

 

 

Base ATK: 542

 

Bonus Stat: CRIT Rate 44.1%

 

Skill Effect: The equipping character gains 52% of their Elemental Mastery as bonus ATK. When an Elemental Skill hits opponents, the Dream of the Scarlet Sands effect will be gained for 10s: The equipping character will gain 28% of their Elemental Mastery as bonus ATK. Max 3 stacks.

Cyno benefits from a range of 5-star weapons that share the common sub-stat of CRIT Rate, providing a significant boost to his damage output. If you don't have access to these top-tier 5-star weapons, don't worry; there are excellent 4-star alternatives available. Weapons like the Deathmatch, which also enhance CRIT Rate, serve as commendable substitutes that can still significantly improve Cyno's combat effectiveness.

 

Best Free-to-Play Weapon

 

White Tassel

 

 

Base ATK: 401

 

Bonus Stat: CRIT Rate 23.4%

 

Skill Effect: Increases Normal Attack DMG by 24%.

 

The White Tassel stands out as an exceptional weapon choice for Cyno, particularly when it reaches its highest refinement level. In this state, it outperforms the majority of 4-star weapons, with the notable exception of the Deathmatch, which holds its own as a formidable alternative.

 

Best Team Comp recommendations

 

1. Aggravate Team Comp

 

● Main DPS-Cyno

● Sub-DPS-Fischl

● Support-Nahida

● Support-Zhongli

 

 

Cyno seamlessly integrates into various Aggravate teams, as it significantly amplifies his Normal Attack damage when his Elemental Burst is active. Pairing him with Nahida is an especially effective strategy, given that Nahida's off-field Dendro damage complements Cyno's extended on-field presence, creating a synergistic duo that can dominate the battlefield.

 

2. Hyperbloom Team

 

● Main DPS-Cyno

● Sub-DPS-Nahida

● Sub-DPS-Yelan

● Support-Baizhu

 

 

Our Cyno-centric Hyperbloom team strategy is designed to generate Dendro Cores through off-field Dendro and Hydro elemental damage, subsequently targeting these Cores with powerful Electro attacks. This composition not only facilitates the Aggravate and Spread elemental reactions but also optimizes the synergy between the elements to maximize overall damage output.
