When Cyno is in the Pactsworn Pathclearer state activated by Sacred Rite: Wolf’s Swiftness, Cyno will enter the Endseer stance at intervals.

A maximum of 1 Duststalker Bolt can be unleashed this way every 0.4s.

Cyno
Cyno is the main DPS of this team, it’s going to be up to him to provide the damage.
Yelan
Yelan would be able to provide the electro-charged effect with his burst.
Collei
Collei is an effective dendro applicator for catalyzing and more reactions.
Dori
Dori’s main role in this team aside from being a healer is a battery, having another electro in this team compo will help Cyno regenerate lots of energy because her energy cost is at 80.
Genshin Impact Cyno is a main DPS character using a polearm assisted by the power of his Electro vision. S
he has destructive power during his Pactsworn Pathclearer, which is activated by his Elemental Burst, and can even extend it with his Elemental skill. This will, in turn, make it so that the Elemental Burst will have little to no cooldown at all as long as you hit the resets.
Cyno’s passive talents will increase the damage of his elemental burst the higher his elemental mastery is.
Because of this, you want to pump his with as much elemental mastery as possible; and because you’re pumping his with lots of elemental mastery, it’ll also be a missed opportunity to not take advantage of it by putting characters that will also set up elemental reactions for him.
The best weapons for Genshin Impact Cyno are those in the banner he comes along with, the Staff of the Scarlet Sands.
However, if you’re F2P, you might want to have your eye on the other weapons on this table as they’re all really good choices.
You can also do a little experimentation, if you feel like you’re having trouble with energy, you’re going to want to use energy recharge weapons.
While if you’re having trouble with damage, you want to go with ATK or Elemental Mastery.
The equipping character gains 52% of their Elemental Mastery as bonus ATK. When an Elemental Skill hits opponents, the Staff 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.
Extinguishing Precept
Gain 12% All Elemental DMG Bonus.
Obtain Consummation for 20s after using an Elemental Skill, causing ATK to increase by 3.2% per second.
This ATK increase has a maximum of 6 stacks. When the character equipped with this weapon is not on the field, Consummation’s ATK increase is doubled.
Stillwood Moonshadow
After triggering Burning, Quicken, Aggravate, Spread, Bloom, Hyperbloom, or Burgeon, a Leaf of Revival will be created around the character for a maximum of 10s.
When picked up, the Leaf will grant Cyno 16% ATK for 12s. Only 1 Leaf can be generated this way every 20s.
This effect can still be triggered if Cyno is not on the field.
Magic Affinity
After using an Elemental Skill, increases Normal and Charged Attack DMG by 8% for 12s. Max 2 stacks.
What are the best artifacts for Genshin Impact Cyno?
The Gilded Dreams should be the best artifact for Cyno and it works well with the suggested team on this guide.
Thundering Fury is more of an artifact that focuses on the offensive capabilities of Cyno through elemental reactions.
If you want to go for more Elemental Mastery, you can switch out Goblet Electro DMG to an EM Goblet and it should be fine.
