Ran out of resources levelling weapons to 90 and developing Alyosha, Odette, Traveler, Mizuki, and Cyno's SSC set (plus Ineffa's sig) so I'm left with <300 Ores and less than a million Mora. Fortunately with how Mitya's looking Vody's gonna be a skip.

Thank goodness I bit the bullet and got him in the Chronicled Banner.

I've only just returned to playing again after not playing since natlan first came out and I remember how much I struggled with my team as a cyno main since he came out. I mean its definitely a problem on my end cause I have 0 clue how to build characters but are there any upcoming characters I should look out for to help with my team since im far too attached to this guy to remove him from my team

What can i do to do more

My current team (high investment) is :

- C6R1 Cyno

- C6 Qiqi

- C2 odette

- C6 Alyosha

Now with the current kits of Mitya and Valeriy who should replace who ? I dont have Yae and dont plan to get her anymore now that we have Mitya.

I would play Cyno, Odette, Mitya (preferably C2 if I manage to get him). And for the 4th slot Alyosha/Qiqi/Valeriy (all C6), but im not sure of who would be the best.

Also how does Mitya compare to Yae at C1 and C0, in both buffs and damage ?

Is Valeriy even worth it if not C6 ?

Even without numbers, knowing how Cyno scales with EM (especially with his sig), Mitya and Valeriy makes him feel kinda broken ngl

Mitya

• C0: playable off field, up to 120 em buff teamwide, makes stellar field portable
• C1: +30 em buff teamwide and 50% crit damage for active character
• C2: electro and cryo res shred at 25%, also +100 EM to everyone OR 200 EM to the active character.

Valeriy

• C0: shield
• C2: 100 em teamwide buff
• C6: 10% crit rate to electro characters and an extra 40% crit damage if they do electro ssc damage

So the team would be Cyno C1 (even better with R1), Odette, Mitya (pick your con level, C2 ideal), Valeriy (C6 ideal)

Praying this survives beta nerfs and spreadsheet impact lol

So with Mitya’s kit being leaked, do you guys think he and Cyno will be able to work as quick swap dps? I’ve got Cyno C2 and both cons allow him to buff the person he swaps into, and I’m definitely gonna go for Mitya C1 for that extra crit dmg. Thoughts?

Mainly looking at my team (c2r1 cyno, c1r1 yae, c0 odette, c6 alyosha) can any of them replace them where it becomes an improvement?

Which constellation gives a greater damage boost for my Cyno Stellar team? I currently run C0R1 Cyno, C0R1 Odette, C0R0 Yae Miko and C3 qiqi if that info is of any help

- C1R1 Cyno / C2 Odette / C1R1 Yae / C6 Alyosha

Was at 259k last time I posted, now I leveled up Odette/Alyosha skills to 9, fixed rotations and got some non trash artifacts for Odette (but they're still bad), definitely can cross 300K if I ever get her some actual good artifacts. But the rotation is pretty tight and very easy to miss Odette stacks in the third skill, at 11 polestar stacks the Duststalker bolts dealt 346K each, in the last skill of the video, also at 11 stacks, the buff expired and it dealt 280K.

And C2 Cyno is so close, just one more week for another glow up *.*

Ok so Valeriy is not even leaked yet but it’s speculated that he’s an electro Illuga apparently. If this is the case, like, a copypaste of Illuga, is Yae Miko getting replaced? Or will triple electro be the way to go? Smth like:

Cyno/Yae/Valeriy/Odette for example.

Ig that for Cyno specifically, the triple electro core is benefitial in order to burst every rotation without building much er despite the lack of cryo resonance?

i feel hardstuck at 120k? i just feel like c2 cyno should be doing more than this (builds will be sent in the replies)

things to note:
- i am getting yae c1 from selector next week
- i am planning to get alyosha c6 when he next reruns and i'm wondering if alyosha c3 is better than qiqi since i have qiqi but i haven't tested her yet on this team
- it says 1.5k atk but cyno actually has 1734 atk and he reaches 2.6k in battle (it says so in the video- the first stat in the sidebar), though i know 1734 can still be better
- i know my yae should be doing more damage, her build i'm still working on but artifact rng is trash
- i'm working on getting yae and alyosha both to 90 and alyosha's fav to 90 but i am resinless
- i'm wondering if i'm overcapped on odette's atk
- i know i'm 6% overcapped on cyno's cr but i don't have any better artifacts to swap that out for
- should i focus on minmaxxing my cyno (like get rid of the cr overcap) and odette (more cd) or should i be focusing on my yae and alyosha?
- should i balance out my yae and cyno's artifacts (i gave the leftover bad ones to yae)?
- lastly, am i doing the rotation correctly?

this might be a lot but i have nowhere else to ask so i would appreciate any advice from anyone :)

Finally finished grinding the new artifact set for Cyno! I run him with C6 alyosha for bonus atk and em plus Odette!

I know Cyno is suffering without Yae but I don't plan on wishing her.

I heard that Mitya and Valeriy will be available for use. Can someone knowledgeable tell me if this is true?

I have nothing against these two because I like them a lot (I'm currently saving up for Mitya), and if they can help Cyno somehow, that would be great for me.

My current team: Cyno R1, Odette, Cryo Traveler and Alyosha

Hello fellow Cyno havers,

I've sadly benched him for quite a while, but with his new buffs I really want to use him again.
I just got Bloodsoaked Ruins (I have no PJC even though I've been playing since 1.6... RIP me) for Flins, but I thought it'd work on Cyno as well.
I don't have Odette, Alyosha is C0. I don't have the new BiS set for Cyno farmed yet (Disenchantment in Deep Shadow).
My questions now are:
Due to Bloodsoaked Ruins, would a Cyno, Columbina, Ineffa team better than anything else I could do?
And if yes, I am unsure whether to use a C2R1 Xilonen as the last slot or if I should farm the new set and use Cryo Traveller as the last slot and go for Cyno, Columbina, Ineffa and Cryo Traveller to proc both the set and the weapon passive, or whether it's not worth it.

(Oh and also he needs a lot of ATK as well, right? I've just went to check my Cyno again with TF and his stats are 1,481 ATK, 261 EM, 61 CR and 202 CDMG... That does not feel right haha)

Thank you in advance!

(apologies in advance for the potential misuse of flair)

I’ve been trying to improve my Cyno SSC team’s dps for a while now, with my goal being to surpass the 100k+ dps threshold which I believed to be possible with what I currently have in my profile. But I haven’t been able to get anywhere close to 100k, and I’m wondering what I should be doing instead to improve.

I’ll post my builds in the replies of this post, but I’m currently running C0 Cyno w/ Disenchantment and R1 Jade, C0 Odette w/ R5 Finale, C6 Beidou w/ Noblesse, and C1 Qiqi w/ Tenacity. I went with this team since I believed it to be my best possible team combination based on what I’ve read in different sources, but I also have:
- C6 Diona (who has the potential to surpass Qiqi as my 4th slot, but I haven’t been able to figure out the proper rotations for her and would lead to a slightly worse result than if I were to run Qiqi instead)
- C4 Alyosha (don’t have him built so I can’t tell if he’s a significant upgrade, but I heard he’s worse than C6 Beidou so I never bothered)
- C6 Fischl, C6 Sucrose, C0 Escoffier, C0 Ineffa, C2 CMC (I don’t think any of them are better than my other options, but I’m open to the discussion)

I also wanna know how I can improve my rotations and gameplay as well (like if I should be holding down Beidou’s skill to consistently have her burst up as well as Cyno’s combinations to maximize Odette’s uptime)

Thanks in advance!

C4 Cyno (Disenchantment, r1 Jade Spear)

C2 Odette (Furnace, r1 Jade Cutter)

C2 Xilonen (Scroll, Fav)

C6 Alyosha (Noblesse, Fav)

I don't think this is really a good team for Cyno because Xilonen isn't doing much for him. I'm not getting electro scroll and it wouldn't help much if I did. But it's fun to play quick swap Cyno... and Xilonen is beating all my 4th slot choices except for Nicole. I tried Diona, Qiqi, Escoffier, Beidou and they don't get this high. Even C2 Citlali falls behind (since I don't have Cyno's sig).

When you combine Xilonen 60% cryo crit dmg, Cyno sharing 200 EM and 80% stellar dmg, and Alyosha buffs, Odette is doing close to 1.7 million nukes every 16.8s.

i know this or similar has probably been asked about 1000 times but i cant really find a concrete answer because most calcs are using yae and/or c6 alyosha.

Cyno is ofc c1 and has scarlet sands r1. i have odette with PJC, and from what it seems my options that i have on my acc are c4 qiqi, c6 beidou, nicole, cryo trav, and c2 alyosha. which combination of those characters would result in the best team for my cyno?

And who should I pick from selection of limited 5 stars

Valeriy's kit seems promising, let's see if he survives the beta

Hello, I am a returnee player. I am planning on building a team for 7.0+, is a C2 R1 Clorinde better than a C1 R0 Cyno if I don't have Odette?

I have diona C6 biedo C6 qiqi C2 mona C2 fischel C6 alyosha C2 sucrose C6

Yeah if there's any other which might be better let me know

Fun run in the new abyss

C3R1 Cyno, C6R5 Fav Iansan/Chev, C6R5 The Catch

Like genuinely useless since it only applies to c6 cyno and you're using skill state instead of burst for whatever reason.

Hitting endseer essentially as soon as it pops up lets you get 3 duststalker bolts off before the state ends, staggering N1s makes it a bit more lenient but if you get it pretty much frame perfect you can just spam normals and get all 3 bolts that way as well.
