Genshin Impact has launched their latest patch 3.0 update and Sumeru can be officially explored by the players in-game. The new Sumeru region brings tons of new territories that players can explore to find more mysteries and puzzles to solve for free Primogems and other exciting rewards.

Meanwhile, story quests and event banners will introduce new characters from Sumeru. The current 3.0 banners feature Tighnari, Collei, and Dori, whereas the upcoming patch 3.1 update will feature Cyno along with other new Sumeru characters. This was also confirmed by reliable sources who have leaked gameplay footage retrieved from the 3.1 public beta.

The tweet above shares leaked gameplay footage of Cyno where players can have their first look at Cyno's Elemental Skills and Burst animation. His kit has already been roughly translated and revealed in previous leaks, but this is the first time players get to see his animation in the public beta.

Normal attacks & charge attacks

Based on the leaked gameplay, Cyno seems to have four combo patterns for his normal attack animations. During the normal attacks, he mostly swings around the polearm around him. This doesn't apply to his second normal attack where he smashes the polearm on the ground.

As for his charge attacks, there is no special animation design for Cyno's charged attacks. During his charge attack, Cyno does the standard charge attack animation with him diving forward and rotating rapidly.

Elemental Skills

When Cyno casts his Elemental Skill in the leaked gameplay footage, he can be seen jumping in the air and plunging forward with his sword. During the execution of this skill, Cyno will deal Electro damage to the affected enemies. One can also use the skill to cover distances while dealing damage.

Based on previous leaks, Cyno has the shortest cooldown of all Elemental Skills in Genshin Impact. With only a three second cooldown, Cyno can integrate the Elemental Skill into his Burst and Normal Attacks.

Elemental Burst

Cyno has some of the best looking Elemental Burst animations in Genshin Impact. When Burst is cast, Cyno will infuse his hands with Electro claws. All types of damage will deal AoE Electro damage to enemies in his Normal, Charge, and Elemental Skill.

The Elemental Burst also seems to provide Cyno with more range and allows him to deal damage to multiple enemies.
