Genshin Impact Cyno: Abilities, Constellations, Ascension Materials Revealed

Genshin Impact 3.1 is coming out at the end of September, with Cyno, Nilou and Candace making their debut. Cyno is a 5-star Electro Polearm character whose kit is pretty much a more powerful version of Razor. In this article, Gurugamer is going to showcase everything you need to know about Genshin Impact Cyno's abilities.

Cyno is going to be one of the more powerful DPS, as his secondary stat is Crit DMG.

1. Cyno Normal Attack: Invoker’s Spear

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

2. Cyno 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.

3. Cyno Elemental Burst: Sacred Rite - Wolf’s Swiftness

Calls upon a divine spirit to possess 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.

4. Cyno Passive Talent

The Gift of Silence

Gains 25% more rewards when dispatched on a Sumeru Expedition for 20 hours.

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 whle 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 50% of Cyno’s ATK as Electro DMG.

Duststalker Bolt DMG is considered Elemental Skill DMG.

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 100% of his Elemental Mastery.
• Duststalker Bolt DMG from his Ascension Talent Featherfall Judgment is increased by 250% of his Elemental Mastery.

5. Cyno Constellations

Ordinance: Unceasing Vigil

After using Sacred Rite: Wolf’s Swiftness, Cyno’s Normal Attack SPD will be increased by 20% for 10s. If the Judication effect of the Ascension Talent Featherfall Judgment is triggered during Secret Rite: Chasmic Soulfarer, the duration of this increase will be refreshed.
You need to unlock the Passive Talent “Featherfall Judgment.”

Ceremony: Homecoming of Spirits

When Cyno’s Normal Attacks hit opponents, his Normal Attack CRIT Rate and CRIT DMG will be increased by 3% and 6% respectively for 4s. This effect can be triggered once every 0.1s. Max 5 stacks. Each stack’s duration is counted independently.

Precept: Lawful Enforcer

Increases the Level of Sacred Rite: Wolf’s Swiftness by 3. The maximum upgrade level is 15.

Austerity: Forbidding Guard

When Cyno is in the Pactsworn Pathclearer state triggered by Sacred Rite: Wolf’s Swiftness, after he triggers Electro-Charged, Overloaded, Quicken, Hyperbloom, an Electro Swirl or an Electro Crystallization reaction, he will restore 3 Elemental Energy for all nearby party members (except himself.)

This effect can occur 5 times within one use of Sacred Rite: Wolf’s Swiftness.

Funerary Rite: The Passing of Starlight

Increases the Level of Secret Rite: Chasmic Soulfarer by 3. The maximum upgrade level is 15.

Raiment: Just Scales

After using Sacred Rite: Wolf’s Swiftness or triggering Judication, Cyno will gain 4 stacks of the “Day of the Jackal” effect. When he hits opponents with Normal Attacks, he will consume 1 stack of “Day of the Jackal” to trigger one Duststalker Bolt. Day of the Jackal lasts for 8s. Max 8 stacks. 1 stack can be consumed every 0.4s. This effect will be canceled once Pactsworn Pathclearer ends.

You must unlock the Passive Talent “Featherfall Judgment.”
