#1 Cyno Chaos Core: Aggravate, Burgeon & Hyperbloom

Tier SS

A four-element seed engine — Hydro makes Dendro Cores, Pyro detonates them into Burgeon, and Electro can also convert them via Hyperbloom. Thoma C6 is the listed requirement; Aggravate uptime depends on keeping a Quicken aura alive between detonations.

Cyno, Xingqiu, Nahida, Thoma — Cyno Chaos Core: Aggravate, Burgeon & Hyperbloom. Cyno (Main DPS), Xingqiu (Sub DPS), Nahida (Support), Thoma (Support).

Core Idea

Hydro from Xingqiu seeds Dendro Cores that Thoma detonates for Burgeon while Cyno keeps Quicken rolling for Aggravate. Nahida supplies the linked Dendro and Elemental Mastery that all three reactions scale from.

#2 Cyno Electro-Charged Taser Drive

Tier SS

Cyno drives coordinated Electro and Hydro attacks, stacking Electro-Charged while Xingqiu and Beidou add damage reduction and interruption resistance.
There is no dedicated healer on this lineup, so sustain depends on the encounter; swap in a healer if the fight punishes chip damage.

Cyno, Beidou, Yelan, Xingqiu — Cyno Electro-Charged Taser Drive. Cyno (Main DPS), Beidou (Sub DPS), Yelan (Sub DPS), Xingqiu (Support).

Core Idea

Cyno stays on field during Pactsworn Pathclearer while Beidou, Yelan, and Xingqiu fire coordinated off-field Electro and Hydro hits from Normal Attacks, chaining Electro-Charged. Defensive utility comes from Rain Swords and Beidou's Burst rather than from healing.

#3 Cyno Aggravate SS Tier — Nahida Quicken Core

Tier SS

Maintain Nahida's Dendro marks to keep Quicken and Aggravate active on enemies. Fischl supplies off-field Electro, and Zhongli's shield keeps Cyno's attack windows uninterrupted.
A Dendro-less setup cannot trigger Aggravate.

Cyno, Fischl, Nahida, Zhongli — Cyno Aggravate SS Tier — Nahida Quicken Core. Cyno (Main DPS), Fischl (Sub DPS), Nahida (Support), Zhongli (Support).

Core Idea

Cyno hypercarries during Pactsworn Pathclearer while Nahida's Dendro marks hold Quicken on enemies, so his Electro hits convert into Aggravate. Fischl adds off-field Oz damage plus particles, and Zhongli's shield covers the full DPS window.

Cyno portrait
Main DPSElectroElectro

Drives the team during Pactsworn Pathclearer. Cast Burst for the longer field window and time Skill with Endseer to trigger Judication and Duststalker Bolts.

#4 Cyno Mono Electro Hypercarry — Kazuha Swirl Battery

Tier SS

Pure Electro team with no Dendro application, so Aggravate never triggers and all damage is raw Electro.
Kazuha must Swirl Electro before Cyno takes the field, and every unit should hold enough Energy Recharge to fund the Burst windows.

Cyno, Fischl, Kaedehara Kazuha, Zhongli — Cyno Mono Electro Hypercarry — Kazuha Swirl Battery. Cyno (Main DPS), Fischl (Sub DPS), Kaedehara Kazuha (Support), Zhongli (Support).

Core Idea

Mono-Electro hypercarry: Kazuha applies Viridescent Venerer RES shred through an Electro Swirl while Fischl batteries particles and Zhongli shields, letting Cyno stay on field through the whole Pactsworn Pathclearer window without interruption.

Rotation

  1. Zhongli Hold Skill to place the pillar and raise the shield (also procs Tenacity of the Millelith).
  2. Fischl Skill to summon Oz as the Electro aura source.
  3. Kazuha Skill then Burst on field to Swirl Electro for RES shred and grouping.
  4. Cyno Burst to enter Pactsworn Pathclearer, then spam Normal Attack.
  5. Time Skill hits with Endseer to trigger Judication and Duststalker Bolts.
  6. Refresh Oz with Fischl's Burst and re-shield with Zhongli before the next Cyno window.

#5 Cyno Hyperbloom — S Tier Electro Dendro Team

Tier S

Cyno triggers Hyperbloom off Yelan's Hydro and Nahida's Dendro during his Electro attack window. Zhongli protects the team, but there is no dedicated healer — refresh Nahida's marks on newly arriving enemies.

Cyno, Yelan, Nahida, Zhongli — Cyno Hyperbloom — S Tier Electro Dendro Team. Cyno (Main DPS), Yelan (Sub DPS), Nahida (Support), Zhongli (Support).

Core Idea

Nahida keeps linked Dendro on enemies while Yelan's coordinated Hydro seeds Dendro Cores that Cyno's Electro hits convert into Hyperbloom. Deepwood shreds Dendro RES for both the reaction and direct Dendro damage, and Zhongli's shield plus RES reduction keeps the long field window uninterrupted.

#6 Cyno Aggravate #3 — Double Dendro Quicken Battery

Tier SS

Cyno leads a Quicken core where Dendro Traveler and Collei keep a Dendro aura live, and Dori handles healing plus Energy.
Match every support duration to Cyno's Pactsworn Pathclearer field window — refreshes land before he takes the field. Two Dendro units mean Electro hits convert to Aggravate almost every swing.

Cyno, Traveler (Dendro), Collei, Dori — Cyno Aggravate #3 — Double Dendro Quicken Battery. Cyno (Main DPS), Traveler (Dendro) (Support), Collei (Support), Dori (Support).

Core Idea

Dendro Traveler and Collei maintain a constant Dendro aura so Cyno's Electro hits convert into Aggravate, while Dori covers healing and battery duty inside her Burst connection range. Every support buff must be timed to overlap Cyno's Burst field window.

#7 Cyno Quickbloom: Hyperbloom & Aggravate Core

Tier SS

Requires Kuki Shinobu at C2 for the extended ring duration. Cyno runs a CRIT-leaning Electro build while Kuki goes full Elemental Mastery for Hyperbloom — the two are separate setups. Deathmatch is a paid Battle Pass weapon.

Cyno, Nahida, Yelan, Kuki Shinobu — Cyno Quickbloom: Hyperbloom & Aggravate Core. Cyno (Main DPS), Nahida (Support), Yelan (Sub DPS), Kuki Shinobu (Support).

Core Idea

Cyno drives a Quickbloom core: Nahida's linked Dendro plus Yelan's coordinated Hydro spawn Dendro Cores, which Kuki Shinobu detonates into Hyperbloom while Cyno's own Electro triggers Aggravate. Deepwood Memories lowers Dendro RES so both the seeds and Nahida's damage scale up.

#8 Cyno Stellar-Conduct Hypercarry Team Guide

Tier SS

Cyno anchors this Cryo/Electro Stellar-Conduct lineup as the on-field driver.
In Radiance: Polaris, a normal Skill enters Pactsworn Pathclearer for 6s without Burst; time Endseer hits to fire Starsame Bolts that count as Stellar-Conduct damage.
Keep Odette's Cryo, Yae Miko's turrets, and Alyosha's healing field up during that window.

Cyno, Yae Miko, Odette, Alyosha — Cyno Stellar-Conduct Hypercarry Team Guide. Cyno (Main DPS), Yae Miko (Sub DPS), Odette (Support), Alyosha (Support).

Core Idea

Cyno drives on-field Electro damage while Odette applies Cryo to fuel Stellar-Conduct, with Yae Miko adding off-field Electro and Alyosha covering heals and buffs. Time Endseer Skill hits inside the Polestar Field so Starsame Bolts land while support buffs are active.
