You can use your elemental sight to find scarabs more easily, since they will glow(You'll be surprised how many people don't know this). Hopefully this can ease the pain of farming for them edit: I see some people saying this doesn't help. Guys, you still need to be close enough to the bugs so that they will spawn. The elemental sight thing is just to help so that you don't have to look for them with naked eye. Since without Tighnari, these bugs pretty much blends with the background

@@Solarized666 i think during that video, he was under the impression that most of the scarabs were under the surface. so he was extremely annoyed when he only found 1 or 2 after doing a quest he didn’t like. ofc it wasn’t his fault, after all ppl did tell him most were underground, but it is a bit silly when he could’ve used the interactive map and then co-oped from there haha.

I believed the same but I tried rn and it reduces its cooldown (despite being cast before burst), so it may seems it resets it but almost.

Basically a reset. I E then Q and then E again as soon as the -1 second cooldown is off. That way you get your 2/3 stacks to max out his Q state damage with his weapon as well.

Strength wise he turned out to be more or less the same as Keqing who used to get shit on a whole lot. So it justifies the hate because of his hype since Travail.

The thing is, a lot of people pulled for Cyno(I did also), and scarabs are scattered all over the map. Just farming 42 of them in your world considering you have unlocked every teleporters will still takes 7-10 mins with Yelan and Sayu on your team. Just a note, if you collect all of the 42 scarabs in your world and you only have 1 friend to steal from, you will still be able to level your Cyno to level 70.

for god mode u can try albedo+zhongly, they are used many where yes, but i never saw u utilizing their duble geo core anyway, so its free for cyno - and for him its good because of shield->damage buff, zhongli's long shield and res shred, albedos LONG LASTING E which is important for cyno, and also albedo busts em for 12 secs after burst, its also useful and i'd say dendro mc they have the biggest aoe and best application right now and also longest duration as u can see supports warking time is actually an issue here

i heard, unable to verify for myself, that gilded dreams is only better than thundering fury if you have his signature weapon. other than that they're about the same. of course, that was a while ago and may be outdated info, and it's not like cyno needs any cd reduction now that you have an idea where the scarabs are having collected several of them, it should be easier i hope. also hope you've been pinning where you find them. just have to find people who don't need their scarabs, which might be easier for you since you mentioned having subscribers willing to help out. good luck!

In order to raise my wife's Cyno to 90 it took farming 5 worlds worth of non quest-gated scarabs. Two accounts from me, two from a mutual friend, and her own, maybe 3 scarabs left over after. It could take around a half hour per world to get to all of the spots as well (as none had waypoints/ statues unlocked at first of course). Genuinely no one can blame you for needing to be a bit slower in raising him. Its a shame when that's not typically how content-making is supposed to work, but Cyno is by FAR the most annoying/ time consuming character we've had to farm for and its totally understandable that you just haven't had the time to raise him properly.
