judgment guilty he said condemned your pen into guilty hey what's up guys welcome to a complete Sino guide in today's video we're going to be talking about the newest five-star character in Genji impact Sino is one of the most hyped up characters and at least for me someone who I've been waiting for for so long so I can't wait to talk to you about them in this video what we're going to be doing is covering everything you need to know about this character covering the best ways to build him both artifact wise and weapon wise as well as optimal playstyle combos teams and a full c0 showcase at the end before we begin I want you guys to know that I've been using Sino a lot on the media server before he came out so I got to try out his optimal Combos and builds to give you guys the most accurate information in this video with that said if there's anything you want to add it will be in a pin comment and as always I do stream most nights on Twitch Link in the description if you're interested in watching me live with that being said let's get into it alright so the first thing we're going to do in this video is cover sino's abilities and playstyle break down his kit and give you guys the most efficient ways of playing him the first thing you need to know about Sino is that you are going to be doing pretty much all of your damage inside of your Elemental Burst when your Elemental burst actually is is a stance change that will give Sino these sort of claw attacks which will convert your attacks to Electro damage throughout this phase your sound is gonna be aiming normal attacks and your Elemental skill which we'll see shortly for a good amount of Electro damage while also getting a bonus 100 Elemental Mastery throughout its duration and some resistance to Interruption now while this ability has a cooldown of 20 seconds and a base duration of 10 seconds it will usually last much longer the reason for this is because your Elemental skill will actually extend the duration of your burst every time you use it while you are inside of your burst in fact the way your skill works is you can either use it inside or outside of your burst outside is just a very simple Dash forward that will give you a good amount of particles and deal okay damage however when you're outside of your burst its cooldown will be very long 7.5 seconds but when you're inside of it it will only be three seconds cooldown and will also have a greater effect that is Central to your kit in fact when you're inside of your burst you can spam your Elemental skill which will deal good damage and will still generate you some energy but not as much as when you use it outside of your burst with that said what's really unique about sinus kit and your Elemental skill is your passive Talent what your passive Talent does is throw out your burst cider will enter A NCR stance at certain intervals this answer your stance is shown by putting a giant sort of eye on your screen as you can see here that gives you a short window to press your Elemental skill for a bonus effect that will deal much more damage because of that throughout your Burst when these end series do appear you want to make sure you're using your Elemental skill at the correct times to maximize your damage as this is going to be very important you should get 4 end series throughout your burst where these eyes will appear on your screen and then you press your skill and you can see that there's going to be a visual indication that you actually got it in time because it goes like orange and what this does is increase the damage of your Elemental skill by 35 and then also fire three dust stalker bolts that will each deal 100 of your sino's attack as Electro damage because of that your skill is going to be very important to spam inside of your burst to not only increase its duration but also greatly increase your damage and you want to make sure the timing is correct so saving your skill for the eye using it at the appropriate times is probably the most important part of your kit and something that's very important to master while the exact amount of skills you can use and the exact rotation slash combos can vary there's a few viable ones and you can also run like the Thundering Fury artifact set which can let you actually use your skill more often the main thing you need to know right now is to at least use your skill every time the ends here is up so every time there's the eye on your screen and for exact combos Advanced details on how to get the most value and the most damage inside of your burst I will explain that in great detail in the combo section of this video so stay tuned for that moving on your other passive Talent will give you additional scalings based on your Elemental Mastery which makes Sino a character who not only will want Elemental Mastery for their reactions he is triggering like aggravate or hyperbloom but also for some of his personal damage in fact your no attack damage will be increased by 150 percent of your Elemental Mastery and the dust Docker Bolts from the previous passive Talent will also be increased by 250 percent of your em because of that Elemental Mastery becomes quite good on this character and usually it is comparable to attack percent but I obviously will go into more detail on how good Elemental Mastery is when we talk about how to build your artifacts and lastly before moving on from the section I do want to say that leveling both your burst for the damage of your normal attacks inside of your burst and also your Elemental skill are going to be important so don't neglect either of these talents and definitely level both of them with that said you can't ignore your normal attacks as the scalings on these don't actually affect your damage inside of your burst as you gain a new combo string like your normal attacks are different inside of your burst than outside use claws instead of a spear so you can ignore this talent and right before moving on to how to build your Sino I did want to say that having played him for a while now I think sign is one of the most fun dpses I've ever played I really enjoy this playstyle and did want to put that out there somewhere in this video and regarding his power level he's good enough to clear the abyss with ease but he isn't quite like a meta-defining character so not a must pull not someone you need as characters like Ryden for example or kazua can be more worth your Primo gems so those are my honest thoughts on Sino a good DPS but not a top tier one although he is in my opinion incredibly fun now moving on let's actually get into how to build your Sino efficiently starting with his best artifact sets the first thing I want to say is that Sino is a character who has many different artifact sets that can be viable and very strong for him with that said to maximize your sinus DPS here are going to be your best artifact sets first of all the 4-Piece thundering Fury can be the best one if you play him efficiently and build an optimal rotation around this specific fake artifact set well I'll explain more of this in the combo section of the video what's nice about these four piece thundering Fury is that the two piece gives you 15 electron damage bonus and then the four piece will increase your damage as well based on the electro reactions that you do and for example in an aggravate team the damage bonus from aggravate is increased by 20 while also decreasing your Elemental skill cooldown by one second every time you proc an electric reaction and this can occur every 0.8 seconds because of that this set lets you use more Elemental skills in a rotation typically giving you two extra casts of your skill inside of your burst so basically to not make this too complicated what this means is that thundering Fury can be your best set assuming you're playing him efficiently and following a combo that I will show a bit later in the video the reason for this is because you can get more Elemental skills and as long as you're using your skill when there's that ends here or the eye on your screen then the damage you get from the set will be very high now other than just thundering Theory though there are other sets that are pretty similar in DPS and that are more simple to use those sets include the four piece Gladiator the four piece thundersooter and the four-piece gilded dreams these three sets and thundering Fury are going to be the go-to options for Sino and honestly all of them are really powerful depending on your team but also your sub stats to go into more specifics though thundering Fury will be the go-to if you have an optimal rotation around it if not it will be four piece Gladiator for the normal attack damage increase and the attack percent that you gain making it a consistently powerful set and usually slightly out tpsing even the Gilded dream set with that said 4p skill to dreams is also very good as it will give you a ton of Elemental Mastery on its effect 80 from the two piece and then another 50 on the four piece for every party member of a different element and 14 attack for every party member of the same element so Electro because of that you'll typically gain around 180 Elemental Mastery and 14 attack percent from running the set making it a good option because of the elemental master that you gain It's usually the best for hyper Bloom teams where you're spamming reactions Non-Stop and for other teams it's a really good option very similar in strength to the other sets that I mentioned without necessarily being the absolute best lastly Thunder Soother is really good and can even outperform other sets that I mentioned as long as the enemies are affected by Electro although this uptime can be inconsistent in certain teams but if you can maintain the electron time then 35 damage increase two opponents affected by Electro is going to be very good any of the four sets that I mentioned are going to be very good for Sino with thundering Fury being my go-to overall with an optimized rotation if not as I said any of the other sets are very powerful do keep in mind you can also mix and match two pieces from the sets that I mentioned notably thundering Fury and an em set like gilded dreams or Wanderers which can also be a pretty decent option now moving on let's actually get into what stats you want on your artifacts for this section we'll be covering the importance of Elemental Mastery vs attack also how much energy charge you need and other stats should go for as always with pretty much any DPS character you should know that criterate and crit damage is very important so that's obviously something you're gonna be looking for on every piece as well as enough energy recharge to spam Universe on cooldown since Sino is a character who pretty much only deals damage inside of his burst or at least should only be dealing damage when he's inside of his burst because of that let's start by addressing the energy recharge how much energy charge you need on Sino highly depends on the team you're running but honestly as long as you run another Electro battery like Fishel or even someone like yaimiko or Beto who can generate some Electro particles you don't need that much energy charge in fact if you have another electric character you generally want somewhere from 120 to 140 energy recharge but potentially needing either a bit more or a bit less as again this does vary for example if you're running Silo on the Thundering Fury artifact set where you can spam your skill with a support like Fishel that gets you a ton of particles and potentially even a support on a favonia's weapon you can sometimes not even need energy recharge or need a very low amount like 110 or 120. if you're running San Jose solo Electro you'll need a lot more energy it can be somewhere around 180 energy recharge so I do recommend usually running another electric character with Sino now with that said for your Sans and just substance in general both Elemental Mastery and attack percent are very good but which one is better well first of all Sino is a character who scales extra well with elemental Mastery because of his passive talent that we saw earlier and because of the reaction damage that he's going to be doing because of that Elemental Mastery is good but it isn't necessarily better than attack percent in fact for your Sans attack percent and Elemental Mastery are typically going to be similar in strength with em usually being a bit better with that said though this highly depends on not only your sub stats but also your weapon as some weapons will favor Elemental Mastery whereas others can favor attack percent in fact if you're running a high base attack weapon like for example Jade spear since your base stack is so high you get more value from Attack percent on your artifacts so going for attack percentage Sans can be more favorable whereas if you have a low base stack weapon then Elemental Mastery can be better especially for sino's Signature weapon for example that gives you even more attack percent based on your Elemental Mastery making it the go-to option with that said though attack percent and Elemental Mastery are generally very close in strength so do consider the factors I just mentioned like your sub stats and the base attack of your weapon with elemental Mastery being the sort of standard but both are obviously very good for your other main stats you definitely want an electro damage bonus goblet and either crit rate or crit damage on your circuit depending on which one you need more of I did want to mention though that any purely reaction based team where you are spamming hyperbloom Elemental Mastery circlet can actually be viable so I didn't want to mention that although typically I do recommend going for crit rate or damage next up let's get into sino's best weapons as he's someone who has many good options for every type of player starting things off with your best installed option though it's obviously going to be your signature weapon the staff of the Scarlet Sands the reason for this is because though stats on this weapon are absolutely insane especially for a character like Sino who can use both Elemental Mastery and attack percent in fact what this weapon does is not only give you 44 crit rate on the stat which is insane but also convert some of your Elemental Mastery into attack 52 of it at refinement rank 1 and then also giving you even more attack based on your Elemental Mastery whenever your skill hits an opponent stacking up to three times and Lasting 10 seconds because of that this weapon just gives you an insane amount of stats both with the crit and the attack percent you're gaining especially if you already have elemental Mastery in your artifacts like within em Sans this weapon will be absolutely insane and you're best in slot overall while this weapon is really good there's a lot of other good options where you don't need this weapon and cyto also has a surprisingly good free to play option in fact the next weapon I want to talk about is actually this free to play option which is the white tassel the white tassel at R5 will increase your normal attack damage by 48 which will obviously affect the attacks inside of your burst while also giving you 23 crit rate on its stat making it very good for Sino while the base attack is low which is unfortunate it makes up for it with this good effect and the good stat and you can run an elemental Mastery stands on this weapon to not feel the low base attack as much and so because of that as you will see in the weapon ranking that I'll show on screen shortly white tassel is a very good option and only second to a few five-star and four star options making it your best free to play weapon overall and a really good option just in general with that said the options that can be a bit better are the death match that you can get from the battle pass although this weapon is usually only slightly better it is really good because of the crit rate and the attack percent that it gives you better options include 5 stars like Jade sphere and staff of Homa which are going to be your two best five stars other than your signature weapon in case you don't have it other than that generic five stars like the vortex vanquisher or the Calamity queller can be okay as well but their strength is very similar to the white tassel so do keep that in mind for more information I'm going to put a weapon ranking on screen right now to help give you a general idea of where these weapons Rank and which ones you should be running you can mind the exact ranking does vary based on you know sub stats rotation how much energy recharge you need your Sands and all that but this is a good idea for a general ranking I do want to once again mention that if you need energy recharge the ER weapons can be higher in strength but in general staff of scarlet Sands is going to be the best option white tassel being an amazing free-to-play option and then Jade sphere Homa and Deathmatch also being very powerful depending on which ones you have and need alright now moving on let's talk about Combos and advanced tips for Sino and this is going to be a very important part to optimize your gameplay and make sure you can do the most damage in every rotation now the way this works I'm going to split it in two sections a thundering Fury Sino and a non-thundering furious I know because if you are running thundering Fury you can get two more casts of your skill and a rotation and so your combo is naturally going to be different also before we begin a few things you should know one thing is that you can Dash cancel a lot of your attacks and this can be important for example with Dash canceling your fifth normal attack the big sphere truck if you want to do more before your next skill and you can also animation cancel pretty much any normal attack into your skills cast to do it faster another thing to note is that your fourth hit is really good since it does two hits pretty much instantly and you can and cancel it and the scaling on it is quite High a similar thing can be said about your fifth hit which has a high scaling and you can Dash cancel it quite rapidly so maximizing those big hits while making sure you use your skill on every eye that appears on your screen not missing one is going to be your number one priority and the last piece of general information that you need to know is that you can swap out early you don't have to hit every single eye what I mean by that is you can stay on Sino for like 20 seconds and get four eyes inside of your burst with that said it's typically optimal at least for my testing to swap out after three so you have time to set up your supports and then go back to Sino and use your burst again as a lot of your cooldowns start to expire after like 12 to 15 or so seconds and a last thing to mention is that if you are running thundering Fury you want to make sure you're actually procking the reactions as often as possible so at least like applying dendro to enemies for example to make sure you're actually getting more casts of your skill with that said let's go first of all for thundering Fury I'm gonna go through a combo that I recorded I'll put two on screen just the text formats in case that's all you care about but I'll basically break down what I do so I start by using my skill on Sino then I use my burst and then do two normal talks into a skill and then do a four hits into a skill then I can do another four hits into another skill press while the eye is still there as you can see it does last for quite some time so hitting it at the end is pretty efficient as I do get that fourth hit out after this you can do five normal attacks into a skill as you can see right here do five normals and the eye will appear then use your skill and then you spam and four so four normals into a skill then another four normals into a skill as well catching the eyes as they appear now after that you could have swapped out instead of doing that last and five as they do recommend swapping out after three eyes not four so you can go to your support and refresh your abilities to get a proper rotation but I just wanted to Showcase what to do if you want to get every eye which is that final N5 at the end so it is up to you next up for bread and butter and pretty easy combo for a non thundering Fury Sino so any other artifact set you're basically going to want to spam your N5 as often as possible and you can also weave in a two normal attack and two after and five if you dash cancel it and do it fast enough the way this rotation works is and I'm gonna replay it you do N3 e after your burst so N3 here then your e then you do N5 and then you use your skill and then after that all you're going to be doing is N5 and then Dash canceling it into an N2 and then using your skill hopefully that didn't sound complicated but what it really is is just five normal attacks you shoot your sphere then you want to dash cancel that you'll notice that I will appear uh but you have time to do two normal attacks here and then user skill and then just repeat that for the entirety of the rotation as you can see you can do that N5 into Dash cancel and two and then use your skill here is typically when you would want to swap out but if you want to do another you can do the exact same thing again obviously the I does appear when you're like doing your N5 so if you want to press e early if you don't have time to dash cancel or whatever you can but you can also weave in those two extra normal attacks after pretty much every N5 as you can see from the rotation so that is pretty much a just easy standard combo that works there's tons of other combos out there for both thundering Fury and non thundering Fury so do check the pinned comment for updates and also feel free to try out what works for you but these are the combos that work very well through my testing now moving on for sinus constellations I want to address how good they are notably some important constellations like his second one that I know a lot of people people are going to be going for do keep in mind before I begin that I'm keeping my Sino at c0 I'm just currently on the media server which is why I have six but I'm not actually getting a C6 anyways though your first constellation for Sino is going to increase your normal attack speed by 20 inside of your burst for pretty much the whole duration as you can refresh it by using your skill correctly this is going to make you attack faster allow you to do longer normal attack strings and change your combos allowing you to do more normal attacks before every skill for just more total damage inside of your burst which is pretty nice your second constellation though is going to be a bit more appealing giving you 10 Electro damage bonus for 4 seconds every time your normal attack hits opponents stacking up to five times effectively giving you 50 Electra damage bonus after your first five normal attacks which is going to be very good because of that while I think cyano is a good unit even at c0 if you want to get an early constellation to stop at C2 will be your stopping point as you'll gain attack speed from C1 and then a good amount of Electro damage at C2 50 for most of your rotation which is a pretty significant amount next up your third and fifth constellation increase your tunnel levels as always and your C4 is a pretty unique one that will restore energy to your other party members other than Sino when you trigger reactions inside of your burst through this constellation you can get up to 15 energy for each of your party members which obviously won't increase your sinus personal damage but can increase your team's overall DPS by allowing you to run less energy on certain supports like for example beta or Singh true who might need a lot of energy otherwise which can make this a decent constellation but in my opinion not your best one and lastly your sixth constellation is a pretty unique one that will effectively just give you more damage to your normal attacks when you're inside of your burst the way this works is you stack up a passive when you use your burst and when you use your skill at the correct time instead of reverse when the eye appears on your screen allowing you to fire off a dust stalker bolt with your normal attacks giving you another instance of Electro damage these dustalker bolts are the same things that are going to basically deal damage when you do use your skill at the correct intervals when you are hitting those end series or the eyes which will deal 100 of sinus attack as Electro damage because of that your C6 does seem pretty decent don't really know the exact strength of it yet as it is too early to tell but as I said it does seem pretty good overall foreign who I like even at c0 but if you do want to stop at an early level you can get your second constellation for Electro damage bonus and some attack speed now with all that out of the way let's finally talk about sino's best teams a very important section to maximizing you know your sign of efficiency and you actually have a team who can support him very well the main things you need to know about cyanos team building are first of all characters he has synergies with notably like running him with another Electro character to allow him to run on much less energy recharge and then also deciding what reactions you're going to be going for and so I'm going to give you guys some good synergies for Sino and example teams and reactions that you can build your team around so that you can copy them and get the most value out of this character first of all you typically want to be pairing Sino with another Electro unit as I mentioned in the artifacts section doing this allows your Sono to run on much less energy recharge which allows you to build more damage and be more efficient for the electro options you can run with Sino first of all there's Beto whose burst lasts 15 seconds which is quite a while and will rapidly bounce between targets Beto is an exceptional off-field carry especially against multiple targets as reverse will constantly bounce between them and her her burst does trigger on the normal attacks that your Sino does inside of his so the Synergy between these two characters is naturally very good that being said Beto also needs a lot of energy recharge and doesn't generate as much energy as another character like Fishel but she makes up for it with high uptime and really good damage especially AOE another good Electro battery a pretty go-to character is official Now official is one of the most broken characters in this patch insane amounts of damage from her Oz her constellations and especially her passive that deals damage when you proc reactions as well as also being a good battery generating a lot of Electro energy for your team because of that official is a good option however do keep in mind that her Synergy with Sino isn't as good as with some other characters because her odds only lasts for 10 seconds without constellations or 12 with your sixth one and cyano's burst lasts for much longer than that so there is some downtime but nonetheless since visual is so good you can still definitely use her with Sino other than Beto and Fishel though yay Miko can work as well as an off-field support and so can Electro healers like kooky or Dory but I do prefer cookie cookie is mainly going to be used if you need an electro character and a Healer as a two in one in one slot and there are quite a few teams that can be built around this especially for Comfort if you just want a Healer although many of the teams that I will be showing you will run a more offensive Electro support option like beta or official because they're quite frankly pretty broken now I know I talked fast but basically that's just to show you guys the electro battery you can run with Sino there's a lot of good options that you can choose and then after that your team becomes pretty flexible while you can run Sino without another lecture character I typically don't recommend it as you would need way more energy recharge now for the rest of your team what are you going for well one team comp that works very well is an aggravate Sino team aggravate Sino teams are pretty simple you run him with an electro character and then they all feel dendro support now while I do think there's gonna be much better ones in the future like potentially nahira right now the main character is the best option but kolei can be okay too that leaves you with just one Flex option Kazu being a really good offensive option offensive support and the same can be said with sucrose as always but Kazo is much better at grouping dealing good damage and giving you that Electro damage bonus from his passive talents and also the Verdes inventor set if you want a more defensive option you can consider running someone like Jean Lee for a Shield or an a Nemo healer like gene or even swapping your Electro character with kooky as I mentioned earlier I did want to quickly take the time to add though that I believe Jeong Lee is especially good with Sino for a few reasons notably because his uptime is pretty long like his shield lasts for a long time 20 seconds which is the entire duration of your sinus burst making that resistance shred have good up time when you compare this with the verdescent vendor set and some other supports like abilities that have a much lower uptime John Lee becomes a good consistent option that can last for your entire rotation Zhang Lee's High uptime has really good Synergy with Sino as your Shield is going to last the entire time protect you and prevent you from getting interrupted while also providing you with 20 resistance shred to any element you're fighting notably Electro and whatever else you're using which is very powerful on top of that you can run supportive artifact sets like either Petra or tenacity of the millith which can be very powerful in a Sino team because of that I do like Zhang Lia as a defensive option for your last slot replacing the need for a Healer anyways to stay on topic though aggravate teams are very good for Sino with the last option being very flexible you can also run Electric charge teams if you don't want to run dendro where you run Sino Electro support Hydro support and email support typically with Beto Singh chukazo being the best options for some other dender teams you can run hyperbloom with Sino pairing him with Beto Singh true once again but with a dangerous support or even double Hydro for some really high single Target damage if you want to proc quick Bloom which is Quicken and hyperbloom at the same time you can run a slow hydroplier like Barbara with a dendro and Electro support on your team as well and there's also some Sino overload teams you can run like this or you can even do PSI National which is Sino in a shangling team although you can obviously do this with other characters like Ryden and it would be better you can also obviously run mono Electro with many different variations or even a Sino hyper carry team although in a team like this I typically would prefer just running aggravate to increase your Electro damage because of that there's quite a bit of flexibility to sinus teams as you can see I typically recommend running him with an electro battery and then you can choose a reaction to build upon you can go electrocharge if you don't want to run dendro in a team like this or you can go aggravate which is my personal favorite for Sino similarly to an aggravate kaching which is pretty broken right now you can do the same with Sino with that said we're not going to get into the DPS Showcase of my Sino we're going to be using this team right here which is the aggravate Sino team with Jeong Li as a support and especially for this Abyss because we're going to be doing second half having a defensive option is really helpful and very useful and wrongly replaces the need for healer throughout the video I showed clips of Sino with Beto very good Synergy but now we're gonna do this team as I said my Sino is c0 with an R1 weapon his signature weapon on level 8 talents a level 90 character 4-Piece Thunder Fury and really good artifacts with that said I hope the guide was helpful and I hope you'll enjoy the Showcase let's go guilty [Music] kill yourself [Music] judgment is apart guilty judgment is upon guilty repented to do guilty guilty [Music] won't stabilize [Music] guilty so yeah that's about it Stein is a character who I absolutely love and will probably be maining alongside Chao for a long time and I really hope I did a good job at giving you everything you need to know in one video do keep in mind since he is a pretty complex character a lot of work when in this video like I don't normally ask for likes and stuff but if you did like it be sure to leave a like and sub if you want because this video took an ungodly amount of time and my editing software was being dumb and mainly just because I wanted to make sure the information was accurate as always with new characters if there's anything new I want to add it will be in a pinned comment especially regarding like teams and combos as that can evolve with time with that said I hope this guide was helpful and as always I'll catch you guys in the next one peace
