Cypher is a Quantum Element Character that follows the Path of Nihility. She offers great sub DPS capability as well as weakening their DMG dealt. She can dish out TRUE DMG from her ULT and dish out FUAs via her Patron mechanic. Her Sleight of Sky bonus ability increases the DMG received to all enemies for 40%, this makes her a reliable high DMG opportunity. Cipher also has a Tally Stack that accumulates for every enemies hit by non-True DMG from her allies, this will be consumed when she launches her ULT.

Best Cavern Relics

(2) Increases DMG dealt to enemies with debuffs by 12%.
(4) Increases CRIT Rate by 4%. The wearer deals 8%/12% increased CRIT DMG to enemies with at least 2/3 debuffs. After the wearer inflicts a debuff on enemy targets, the aforementioned effects increase by 100%, lasting for 1 turn(s).
Since Cipher is a Nihilty character, the Pioneer set is her best option. She enjoys dealing more DMG towards debuffed enemies as it also provide her with Crit Stats.
(2) Increases Quantum DMG by 10%.
(4) When the wearer deals DMG to the target enemy, ignores 10% DEF. If the target enemy has Quantum Weakness, the wearer additionally ignores 10% DEF.
This set can ignore a set amount of DEF on enemies and doubles that if they have Quantum Weakness.
(2) Increases Wind DMG by 10%.
(4) After the wearer uses their Ultimate, their action is Advanced Forward by 25%.
This set allows Cipher to apply debuffs faster through her ULT. It is recommended to use ER rope on this build.

Best Planar Ornaments

(2) Increases the wearer's ATK by 12%. When the wearer's SPD is equal to or higher than 135/160, the wearer deals 12%/18% more DMG.
Cipher requires 170 SPD for her Empyrean Strides, making it also easier for Cipher to trigger the Glamoth's high stat boost.
(2) Increases the wearer's ATK by 12%. When entering battle, if at least one other ally follows the same Path as the wearer, then the wearer's CRIT Rate increases by 12%.
This can be considered if Cipher is teamed up with Acheron.
(2) When an ally uses follow-up attacks, the wearer gains 1 stack of Merit, stacking up to 5 time(s). Each stack of Merit increases the DMG dealt by the wearer's follow-up attacks by 5%. When there are 5 stacks, additionally increases the wearer's CRIT DMG by 25%.
For this set to be reliable, Cipher must be in a FUA Teams like Feixiao and Dr. Ratio.

Best Light Cones

SourceLight Cone Event Warp
Deceit
Increases the wearer's SPD by 18~30%. After the wearer uses an attack, there is a 120% base chance to inflict the "Bamboozle" state on every enemy target. While under the "Bamboozle" state, enemy targets have their DEF decreased by 16~24% for 2 turn(s). If the wearer's SPD is higher than or equal to 170, there is a 120% base chance to inflict the "Theft" state on every enemy target. While under the "Theft" state, enemy targets have their DEF decreased by 8~12% for 2 turn(s). When "Bamboozle" or "Theft" is repeatedly inflicted, only the most recently inflicted instance takes effect.
This is Cipher's Signature Lightcone. It makes her well-rounded Sub DPS and Debuffer as it can shred the DEF of all enemies throught Bamboozle and Theft Debuff. The former can be triggered easily but the latter requires first to have Cipher achieve 170 SPD to implant it to all enemies. It can also enhance her SPD, making it easier for her to reach the required SPD for the Theft Debuff.
SourceStellar Warp, Departure Warp, Character Event Warp, Light Cone Event Warp
Glance Back
When the wearer hits an enemy and if the hit enemy is not already "Ensnared," then there is a 60~100% base chance to "Ensnare" the hit enemy. "Ensnared" enemies' DEF decreases by 12~16% for 1 turn(s).
When this LC is equipped with Cipher, it allows her to inflict the Ensnared debuff that shred an enemy's DEF.
SourceStellar Warp, Light Cone Event Warp, Character Event Warp
Scrutinize
Increase the wearer's CRIT Rate by 8~16%. The wearer deals 24~48% more CRIT DMG to enemies that are currently Slowed or have reduced DEF.
It gives Cipher Crit Rate buff and makes her deal more CRIT DMG with any enemies that are affected by DEF shred or slowed debuffs.
SourceStellar Warp, Departure Warp, Character Event Warp, Light Cone Event Warp
Toiler
