Talk:Cynn

Skills

I am certain that I've seen Cyn use Mark of Rodgort at higher levels. Has anyone else seen this? Gwynna Vive 01:20, 31 July 2007 (UTC)

The skills lists here and on GuildWiki are the same, and neither one has Mark of Rodgort. Did you get a chance to screenshot it? -Auron 01:33, 31 July 2007 (UTC)

No, and I'm not sure which campaign it was in, nor what mission/area. The deserts of Elona seems most likely. All the henchies evolve as the campaign does (which causes them to leave your party when you enter certain towns) so there is some variance in the skill set they use at different points through the campaigns. One henchie in Elona uses skills from two professions at some point as well (a healer if I recall correctly). It just seemed to me that I recalled Cynn using MoR, and it wasn't listed here. I will watch for it, and catch a screenie if I'm not mistaken. It wouldn't be the first time :) Gwynna Vive 02:53, 31 July 2007 (UTC)

What i do see her using pretty often is Searing Flames (at least in Nightfall), which i use it with my own mark of rogdort and searing flames to boost up some damage. It seems that if cynn uses SF, the next time she uses them the target is not burning anymore, hence, being a energy sink. Pulha 19:35, 7 December 2008 (UTC)

Are you sure it's not Mind Burn? -- Gordon Ecker (talk) 02:18, 8 December 2008 (UTC)

Wait what?

"Mhenlo wanted us to heat things up. Funny. Usually I'm the one fanning the flames" 0-dresses up like vekk- Are you pondering what Im pondering...--Yakky 14:41, 2 September 2007 (UTC)

Hah, I can almost hear his voice. --People of Antioch talk 03:47, 5 February 2008 (UTC)

Anyone ever wonder

Why Cynn seems to be using an earth staff...--Ryudo 21:28, 19 February 2008 (UTC)

It fits her outfit better than a fire staff. --66.45.173.98 21:40, 21 February 2008 (UTC)

Texture Bug?

So what was the bug that they fixed.. wasn't the 'naughty undies' was it? 82.16.137.96 00:00, 24 February 2008 (UTC)

The thong lives. 68.204.198.205 17:12, 24 February 2008 (UTC)

Girl I know you wanna show da na da na, That thong th thong thong thong --66.45.173.98 18:59, 25 February 2008 (UTC)

thong... shes wearing a thong hwo do i see it --The preceding unsigned comment was added by User:76.255.66.247 (talk).

A con In Her Skill Set

I find this rather a rather annoying little thing that get her killed alot during a fight, she runs in and spams Star Burst....putting here at easy aggro range for hard hitting warriors like the destroyers, jotun and anything else really....im going to add this to the cons section, if anyone disagrees they can delete the change but i thought it was annoying, especially since she has very low resistance in battle, --The preceding unsigned comment was added by User:Darren Blacktail (talk).

Once you posted, please don't remove it. Best to think about it and preview it before posting. As for Cynn's behavior that you noticed, I have to say that I haven't had such a problem. She's usually one of the last to die for me so it might be partially caused by the party you're bringing and your own character's profession. -- ab.er.rant 02:08, 10 April 2008 (UTC)

Pretaining to the GW trailer

I have noticed something in the original (actually not sure if it is "the" original) GW trailer, the one that shows Devona wielding two swords. It seems that Cynn was once able to use her staff as a meelee weapon. Yet dispite my constant efforts of leading her into battle, she still uses her staff as a magical projectile weapon even though it would probabally just be easier to hit the Abomination upside the face. I am wondering if it was originally intended for the staff to be used at meelee as well as long range (as it is now), but with different animations.

I have also noticed, again in that same cinematic, that her Firestorm causes massive AoE KD... I can see why they didn't impliment this as it would then be more overpowered than Ursan, but still, it would have been amazing to witness Cynn's true potential. Steve 05:58, 26 June 2008 (UTC)

Concept art and trailers often vary heavily to actual content; they're supposed to dramatise and entertain rather than show actual gameplay and mechanics. -- Brains12 \ talk 23:25, 12 October 2008 (UTC)

I think she was actually using Meteor Shower on that trailer, but gave it up when Devona began using a hammer. Erasculio 23:27, 12 October 2008 (UTC)

Yea cause everyone knows that by the time Cynn finish cast her meteor shower, it's already all over and there is only the bodies left for your mm to make minions loll poor Cynn! Milène. 142.78.8.4 20:33, 28 February 2011 (UTC)

Jealousy

I'm very amazed that nobody has said anything...anywhere..about her jealousy fits. As everyone knows, she has a thing for Mhenlo... but everywhere you go... Mhenlo's macking on another female henchie... and Cynn's off having a spaz fit, with emotes)

I'll probably put a page up about this in my user area. --StimpsonJKat 19:04, 1 April 2009 (UTC)

That's something that's always bothered me about Cynn, actually, and thank you for making a comment about it, even if it was a couple weeks ago, XD It's these jealousy fits that make it so I can't stand to have her in my party, ever (I <3 Herta). Especially through Factions, she was... rude and borderline violent to everyone who seemed to know Mhenlo and was female. If Mhenlo and Cynn are supposed to be a couple, I'd love for ANet to develop it more, to maybe show that Cynn trusts him, and stop wanting to incinerate all the women around them, :)

That's why I ship Mhenlo/Tahlkora, XD Elysea 19:01, 19 April 2009 (UTC)

the point of it is comic relief. it doesn't always work, though. azalea||chat 20:16, 19 April 2009 (UTC)

Is it really? o.O I never would have pegged it as comic relief. I have to agree with you though, it doesn't always work. I mean, I can see the way the Henchies act in Rata Sum as being comic relief, but overall, I don't see Cynn's jealousy being funny like, at all, :( At some points in Factions, Cynn's behaviour is borderline abusive. ;_; Then again, it is a YMMV thing, :) That's just what I saw and interpreted, :) Elysea 22:11, 19 April 2009 (UTC)

Favorite cynn moments, jealousy of mhenlo, danika and ofcoarse "the twins" ;-) Justice 05:03, 9 August 2009 (UTC)

I don't think it's just a "thing" she has for Mhenlo. I'm actually fairly convinced that they are a couple, and she is jealous of all the attention he gives to the other Females around them. And of how well known he was in Cantha by uh...all the females.

9 skills in EotN? what? Cress Arvein 00:42, 23 October 2009 (UTC)

Perhaps they actually meant "We Shall Return!" and replaced the res sig? Vili 点 00:47, 23 October 2009 (UTC)

Same thing's happened to talon and possibly a few others too. --Ckal Ktak 07:32, 23 October 2009 (UTC)

Well I took Cynn on a killing spree and she doesn't seem to use GoLE anymore. From what I know, the AI loves to use it on recharge so maybe that's the skill that got replaced. Haruno Midori 13:12, 25 October 2009 (UTC)

Creatures can't have 9 skills. Update notes must have omited a removed skill, which seems to be the case by the above note. Backsword 03:18, 30 October 2009 (UTC)

Yes they can, Sanity Tormentors have 10. Anyway, here's a checklist. -- Gordon Ecker (talk) 03:22, 30 October 2009 (UTC)

Then there are something wrong with that article. Creatures have only 8 slots. Backsword 03:26, 30 October 2009 (UTC)

Not necessarily, the game coding could allow NPCs to have more skills than the current player skill bar size limit, which is probably the case. The skill bar had nine slots during some of the betas, and some passive monster buffs and debuffs, such as Undead sensitivity to Light, Stun on Critical Hit and Stun Immunity are technically skills, if they use skill slots, NPCs could have extra skill slots to allow eight regular skills while leaving room for passive buffs and debuffs. -- Gordon Ecker (talk) 06:11, 30 October 2009 (UTC)

Like I said, she seems to use everything on the list except GoLE. Should I take screenshots with every skill she uses? Haruno Midori 12:25, 30 October 2009 (UTC)

I have also personally confirmed everything except Glyph of Lesser Energy. I've updated her skill list and removed the outdated tag. -- Gordon Ecker (talk) 02:36, 31 October 2009 (UTC)

• Aura of Restoration - confirmed
• Fire Attunement - confirmed
• Fireball - confirmed
• Glyph of Lesser Energy - unconfirmed
• Liquid Flame - confirmed
• Meteor Shower - confirmed
• Mind Blast (elite) - confirmed
• "Never Surrender!" - confirmed
• Resurrection Signet - confirmed

So... doesn't that means that ArenaNet is cheating? O_o
Btw, there's a necro boss in EotN with 2x elites, so I don't see why NPCs couldn't have 9 skills. - Ander01 04:02, 1 May 2010 (UTC)

Pervert

What Pervert was looking at her underwear? —The preceding unsigned comment was added by Maeglin-Amandil (talk • contribs) at 12:53, 2 December 2009 (UTC).

It was years ago. I doubt anyone remembers who first reported it on which forum. -- ab.er.rant 14:14, 2 December 2009 (UTC)

Lol what are you guys talking about? -- Halogod35 14:22, 2 December 2009 (UTC)

The last point in the trivia section ;) -- ab.er.rant 14:32, 2 December 2009 (UTC)

Remove the last trivia, maybe? what's big deal make it in trivia, thong just a type of underwear...--TeaCat._. 17:56, 2 December 2009 (UTC)

Well, it is an interesting bit of information. Every other character uses the generic underwear, but Cynn somehow wears a thong. Funny, yes ? MadSkillz1o1 10:29, 18 February 2010 (UTC)

Nu-uh. Magi Malaquire. -- Arduin 10:36, 18 February 2010 (UTC)

Either way it's still trivia.--Wingsy 11:55, 18 February 2010 (UTC)

Should we add that statues of balthazar look like massive, golden penises from behind? Or would that be inappropriate? Sure, it's true, but I really don't think we should document things like that. is for Raine, etc. 18:44, 15 March 2010 (UTC)

I'm not the best at catching and naming fallacies, but I think that's a straw man. -- pling 18:48, 15 March 2010 (UTC)

I can't be fucked to look it up, so I'll simplify the argument:

This bit of information, while true, is not beneficial to or even appropriate for the wiki, imo. Do you disagree? is for Raine, etc. 18:55, 15 March 2010 (UTC)

A bit, yeah. This has become one of those popular little titbits in the Guild Wars community afaik, so it has its own merits there. The definition of "appropriate" varies, but we've had precedent in keeping articles like Kurdick and Suxon, which are similar in terms of objectionableness, so I don't think we can say this is exceptionally inappropriate. I'm not fussed about keeping it, but I don't see the fuss in removing it. -- pling 19:01, 15 March 2010 (UTC)

While were on the Subject, maybe you should add pictures... The Only Warrior 12:06, 13 April 2010 (UTC)

The Balthazar example is a subjective observation, while it is fact that Cynn wears a thong. A better example would be if the statues were actually filled with a menagerie of penises, would that be appropriate to add to the wiki, and I exclaim "Aye! Yes it should!" --69.180.12.19 17:12, 18 April 2011 (UTC)

That thong song!

I'll add a rendered image of Cynn's thong in a bit. 24.126.139.64 04:47, 2 June 2010 (UTC)

Amazing fucking story brah --Eavil <3s You 05:08, 2 June 2010 (UTC)

here you go! as promised! Cynn's Thong 15:56, 3 June 2010 (UTC)

[--------------^-] Care-o-meter reads 0.01 Seriously its pixels on a screen, not even a real woman... search the internets for thong it may just surprise you 192.203.160.241 17:21, 3 June 2010 (UTC)

Though this may be just a technicality, every picture on the Internet is just pixels on a screen. Every photograph is just molecules reflecting light, the resolution is only as high as the density of molecules. Every thing you see is just light hitting cells in your eye, and being interpreted by your visual cortex. --69.180.12.19 17:17, 18 April 2011 (UTC)

yes thats just what i wanted to say 83.81.24.86 10:52, 29 May 2011 (UTC)

Technically that's not a thong...217.22.88.20 16:46, 21 June 2011 (UTC)

it is a thong, you can see the other side if you look through her stomachAurenXneruA 05:40, 26 June 2011 (UTC)

Technically it's pixel...means nothing but Anet are perverts same as these guys, and implying Cynn is a slut just as every Elementalist + easily getting raged.--61.219.36.201 10:46, 26 June 2011 (UTC)

just because shes in a thong doesnt make her a slut, i know plenty of girls that wear them because they prefer the way feels. and what would make you say every Elementalist is that way?AurenXneruA 04:43, 12 July 2011 (UTC)

Raid on Shing Jea (Hard Mode)

Anyone recorded her build on this quest? --MageMontu 08:18, 16 February 2012 (UTC)

I saw her using the EOTN Henchman build but I don't recall seeing Never Surrender, but then again I was too busy staying alive. --MageMontu 20:11, 20 February 2012 (UTC)

Married status

I wondered, has nobody ever updated the article to state that Mhenlo finally proposed to her in the Shing Jea Raid (HM)? It still says she remain unproposed. I would love to add it, but there are better people to make nice phrases :) --Jorre22225 (talk) 19:09, 27 June 2017 (UTC)
