Fischl	Raiden Shogun Zhongli Kazuha	- Raiden Shogun is also an amazing Battery but she needs more on-field time. - You can also put characters that boost damage such as Kazuha or Zhongli. When doing this, it is preferred to have another Electro Teammate.
Nahida	Dendro Traveler Collei	- Collei or Dendro Traveler is a great replacement for Nahida though they are very Burst Reliant for Off-fields.
Kokomi	Dori Kuki Shinobu	- Any healer can work well with Cyno. Electro healers, however, can give a much needed Electro Resonance.

Cyan 25

Try cyno/xingqiu/albedo/shinobu. I could 36* the abyss for the first time with this team (and ayaka/kokomi/kazuha/rosaria on the other half) it works pretty well (albedo is there for his em granting passive you can replace him with kazuha or zhongli)

Anon 21: You can use the Inazuma polearm or the Sumeru one, both are acceptable. But is better to give him White Tassel. The Catch is useless on him and the polearm from Mondstadt event is worse than the craftable weapons.

wanderer 23

Anon 20: Aggravatte is a reaction that does deal Crit DMG, sames as Vaporize and Melt. That's why you should try to get as much as Crit DMG/Crit Rat and EM as possible.
