RolesSupport · Amplifier
Release2.0

Sparkle is a Quantum Harmony support and the game's Skill Point engine: she raises the Skill Point cap, her Ultimate restores 6 Skill Points at once and banks the overflow, and her Skill gives one ally a big CRIT DMG buff with a 50% action advance. Her Novaflare enhancement (Version 4.0) added a DMG taken debuff, 45% ATK for the whole team and All-Type RES PEN, making her a top pick for Skill Point-hungry damage dealers such as Archer and a strong buffer for any CRIT team.

Teams

Recommended teams

Archer

Her most used team: her Skill Points fuel Archer's Skill chains, and Penacony, Land of the Dreams boosts the two other Quantum units.

Himeko • Nova

Sparkle and Sunday stack without overlap: Sunday brings Energy and DMG, Sparkle Skill Points, DMG taken and RES PEN.

Imbibitor Lunae hypercarry

The classic Skill Point-hungry carry: Sparkle lets him use his strongest enhanced Basic ATKs every turn.

Guide

How to play

How she works (Novaflare kit)

  • Skill: Dreamdiver. One ally gains CRIT DMG equal to 24% of Sparkle's CRIT DMG + 45% for 2 turns and has their action advanced by 50% (no advance on herself).
  • Talent: Red Herring. +2 max Skill Points. Each Skill Point an ally spends gives Sparkle a Figment stack: enemies take 4% more DMG per stack (up to 3 stacks, 2 turns).
  • Ultimate: The Hero with a Thousand Faces (110 Energy). Instantly restores 6 Skill Points; overflow is recorded (up to 10) and refilled at the end of allies' turns. It also grants Cipher for 3 turns, which adds 6% per Figment stack, for up to 30% DMG taken.
  • Traces. Almanac (A2): +10 Energy on Basic ATK, and +1 Energy when her Skill target spends Skill Points. Artificial Flower (A4): if an ally spends 3+ Skill Points in one turn, her next Skill is free. Nocturne (A6): +45% ATK for all allies, and 10% All-Type RES PEN for her Skill target.

Rotation

  1. Her Technique restores 3 Skill Points and 20 Energy when entering combat.
  2. Use her Skill on your main damage dealer right before their turn; the buff lasts 2 turns, so you can Basic ATK in between to save Skill Points and gain Energy.
  3. Use her Ultimate whenever Skill Points are low; with an SP-hungry carry, it pays for itself many times over.

Tips

  • Two builds exist: a standard build (Sacerdos' Relived Ordeal, CRIT DMG) and a speed-tuning build (Eagle of Twilight Line and/or Dance! Dance! Dance!) aiming for 3 turns in 150 Action Value.
  • Her 50% advance lets your carry skip SPD substats and focus on damage stats.
  • She works alongside Sunday or Bronya too: her DMG taken debuff and RES PEN don't overlap with their buffs.

Strengths

  • Unmatched Skill Point generation, with overflow banked for later
  • Rare buffs: DMG taken debuff, All-Type RES PEN and 45% team ATK
  • Big CRIT DMG buff and 50% action advance for one ally
  • Her Skill buff now lasts 2 full turns, and her Energy economy is good
  • Great-value Eidolons

Weaknesses

  • Her action advance is only 50%, not 100% like Sunday or Bronya
  • Can't replace Sunday's Energy generation for Energy-hungry carries
  • Speed-tuning her for the best breakpoints requires precise stats
