Cyno is a playable Electro character in Genshin Impact.

As the General Mahamatra, Cyno leads the Matra and strikes fear into the hearts of researchers of the Sumeru Akademiya. In spite of this, Cyno has a fun side outside of his role in the Akademiya, as he has an affinity for Genius Invokation TCG and constantly cracks unfunny jokes.

Elemental Skill
  • Description

  • Preview

Performs a swift thrust, dealing Electro DMG to opponents along the path.

When Cyno is under the Pathsworn 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 Pathsworn Pathclearer.

  • When Skill DMG hits at least one enemy, it generates 3 Elemental Particles.
  • When Mortuary Rite DMG hits at least one enemy, it generates 1.333 Elemental Particles.
  • When this skill is used, both CDs will be triggered. When outside of his Elemental Burst, the normal CD will be used. During his Elemental Burst, the Mortuary Rite CD will be used. The unused CD will still run in the background. For example:
    • If Cyno uses his Elemental Skill followed by his Elemental Burst, the skill CD will be shortened by 4.5s.
    • If Cyno uses his Elemental Skill 4 seconds before his Elemental Burst ends, the skill will have finished its 3s cooldown 1 second before the end of the burst. However, when the burst ends, the skill will re-enter its remaining normal CD of 3.5s.
Passive Effects
  • Passive Talent 1, Featherfall Judgment 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."
