Deathmatch

Cyno drives the team during Pactsworn Pathclearer. Cast Burst for its longer field window and time Skills with Endseer to trigger Judication and Duststalker Bolts. Build enough ER for the rotation; ordinary Electro damage uses Electro DMG Bonus, while reaction damage also depends on level and EM. Deathmatch is a paid Battle Pass weapon.

Sacrificial Sword

Best 4 Stars Weapon

Xingqiu supplies coordinated Hydro during Normal Attack sequences, damage reduction and interruption resistance. Fund his Burst for the full on-field window. His Rain Sword healing is limited and does not replace a dedicated healer in every encounter.

Best 5 Stars Weapon

Best 4 Stars Weapon

Nahida supplies linked Dendro damage and EM support for the active character inside her Burst. Refresh her marks on newly arriving enemies. Deepwood lowers Dendro resistance for Dendro damage and Hyperbloom; it does not directly increase Cryo damage.

Shield / Support

Thoma (C6)

Main Stats:

Best 4 Stars Weapon

Kitain Cross Spear

Best 4 Stars Weapon

Thoma supplies shields and Pyro waves during Normal Attack sequences. In a Burgeon setup, his level and EM matter for Core explosions; build enough ER to cast Burst. An EM build trades some shield strength for reaction damage. C6 adds its attack buff only when unlocked.

Cyno Electro-Charged

Team Rating : SS Tier

Cyno drives coordinated Electro and Hydro attacks. Xingqiu and Beidou add defensive effects, but this lineup has no dedicated healer; sustain depends on the encounter.

Serpent Spine

Beidou supplies off-field Electro discharges when Normal or Charged Attacks hit, plus damage reduction and interruption resistance. Her Burst performs better with multiple targets available for its chains. Build enough ER; these defensive effects do not provide continuous healing. Serpent Spine is a paid Battle Pass weapon.

Yelan adds coordinated Hydro during Normal Attack sequences and an increasing damage buff for the active character. Use enough ER for the planned Burst window. Her HP scaling does not mean ATK% improves her Burst damage.

The Stringless

Fischl supplies off-field Electro with Oz and helps the Electro team generate particles. Refresh Oz through Skill and Burst. In Dendro teams she can contribute Aggravate damage; a setup without Dendro cannot trigger Aggravate.

Best 4 Stars Weapon

Zhongli provides a strong shield and nearby resistance reduction while the shield is active. Refresh the shield before the main damage window. Tenacity needs his pillar to keep hitting enemies; Favonius needs CRIT hits while he is on field.

Cyno Mono Electro

Team Rating : SS Tier

Kazuha should Swirl Electro before Cyno takes the field. This team has no Dendro application, so it cannot trigger Aggravate.

Best 4 Stars Weapon

Kazuha groups enemies and supports the element he Swirls. Trigger the intended Swirl while he is on field to apply Viridescent resistance reduction; an Electro Swirl setup needs an Electro aura before his attacks. Build enough ER for the planned Burst window.

Best 4 Stars Weapon

Dendro Traveler supplies Dendro through the Lea Lotus Lamp. Give the Lamp the desired Hydro or Electro interaction and avoid unwanted Pyro transformation, which can end it early. Build enough ER and keep enemies in its area. This entry is the Dendro Traveler, not another element.

Collei

Gilded Dreams(4)

Main Stats:

Sub Stats:

Best 4 Stars Weapon

Collei adds Dendro application during her short Burst window. Refresh her effects before Cyno takes the field. This lineup already uses Deepwood on Dendro Traveler, so another copy of its resistance reduction is unnecessary.

Dori

Noblesse Oblige(4)

Main Stats:

Sub Stats:

Best 4 Stars Weapon

Favonius Greatsword

Dori heals and restores Energy through her Burst connection. Keep the active character within its range and build enough ER for the planned rotation. Favonius needs on-field CRIT hits; healing does not make Cyno immune to interruption.

Cyno Quickbloom

Team Rating : SS Tier

This setup specifies Kuki C2. Kuki triggers many Hyperblooms while Cyno also deals Electro and Aggravate damage; a full-EM reaction build and a CRIT damage build are different setups.

Iron Sting

Best 4 Stars Weapon

Kuki heals the active character and triggers Hyperbloom when her ring contacts Dendro Cores. Level and EM improve her reaction damage. C2 extends ring duration; Favonius is an Energy alternative requiring on-field CRIT hits, not an off-field EM upgrade.

Cyno Stella-Conduct #1

Team Rating : SS Tier

Cyno drives this Cryo and Electro Stellar-Conduct team. Use Endseer Skill timing for Starsame Bolts while support effects and the Polestar Field are active.

Best 4 Stars Weapon

Deathmatch

Cyno drives the team with Electro attacks and timed Skills. In Radiance: Polaris, an ordinary Skill can enter Pactsworn Pathclearer for 6 seconds without casting Burst. Time Skills with Endseer to produce Starsame Bolts, which count as Stellar-Conduct damage. Burst remains an option for a longer field window; build ER for the rotation you actually use.

Kagura's Verity

Best 4 Stars Weapon

The Widsith

Yae Miko applies off-field Electro with Sesshou Sakura. Her Radiance: Stellar-Conduct lets those attacks contribute Stellar-Conduct damage in this Cryo and Electro lineup. Keep the turrets active while the on-field character attacks; use Burst only when the rotation and Energy allow it.
