Who is Sparkle?

Sparkle is a support character who can restore Skill Points for allies and increase their maximum Skill Point limit.

Additionally, she can advance the action of a designated ally, boost their Crit Damage, and enhance the damage dealt by the entire team.

• Advantages:

Top-tier Skill Point Support: Her Ultimate restores 4 Skill Points for the whole team, her Talent increases the Skill Point cap by 2, and her Technique provides 3 Skill Points at the start of battle, completely resolving Skill Point shortages.

Powerful Single-Target Buffer: Her Skill grants high Crit DMG bonus and 50% Action Advance to a single ally, significantly boosting the burst potential and turn frequency of a main carry.

Self-Sustaining Cycle: Her mechanics (Skill Point generation, damage buffs) synergize seamlessly. With low Energy requirements, she can frequently use her Ultimate.

• Disadvantages:

Focused Single-Target Buffs: Her core damage and Action Advance effects target only one ally, reducing effectiveness in multi-target scenarios or dual-carry teams.

Short Buff Duration: Key buffs last only 1–2 turns, requiring careful speed tuning and rotation management to maintain uptime.

Damage Buff Relies on Skill Point Consumption: Her Talent’s team-wide damage boost depends on allies continuously spending Skill Points, which may be less effective in sustain-heavy situations or when paired with low Skill Point cost carries.

Skill Priority

Skill > Ultimate = Talent > Basic Attack

Sparkle’s Talent, Ultimate, and Technique are all related to Skill Points: they increase the maximum limit, generate additional Skill Points, and enhance damage based on Skill Point consumption. Her Skill, however, functions independently, granting a single ally 50% Action Advance and a Critical Damage boost. Additionally, Sparkle possesses a bonus ability that increases her Attack based on the number of Quantum characters in the team.

Best Light Cone for Sparkle

Here are the optimal Light Cone choices for Sparkle, ranked by performance.

“Earthly Escapade” is currently the most suitable Light Cone for Sparkle in this version. However, since it provides only stat boosts without additional mechanics, it is not essential. When choosing between it and Eidolons, prioritizing Eidolons is generally recommended. Furthermore, this Light Cone can be safely replaced when specific functional needs arise or when other options offer greater numerical benefits.

Light Cone	Stats Lv.80	Wht It Fits
Earthly Escapade 5★ (Signature)	HP: 1164ATK: 529DEF: 463	The equipping character’s CRIT DMG is increased. When using Skill, increases the next ally’s DMG.
But the Battle Isn’t Over 5★	HP: 1164ATK: 529DEF: 463	Increases the equipping character’s Energy Regeneration Rate and DMG Boost effect. After using Skill, regenerates 1 Skill Point for the team (can be triggered once per 2 turns).
Planetary Rendezvous 4★	HP: 1058ATK: 423DEF: 331	Increases the DMG of allies whose Type matches the equipping character. (Particularly suitable for mono-element teams, e.g., with Asta in a Fire team).
Dance! Dance! Dance! 4★	HP: 953ATK: 423DEF: 397	Increases the equipping character’s Break Effect. After using Ultimate, advances all allies’ actions forward.

Best Relics and Planar Ornaments for Sparkle

• Recommendation

Messenger Traversing Hackerspace + Broken Keel

Messenger Traversing Hackerspace provides personal Speed and a team-wide Action Advance effect, making it the optimal support set when maintaining turn order is not a concern.

Broken Keel, on the other hand, requires only a moderate investment in Effect Resistance to grant the entire team increased Crit Damage. Since Sparkle can further convert this stat into additional benefits, it is currently regarded as her best-in-slot endgame set.

• Other Option

Eagle of Twilight Line + Sprightly Vonwacq / Penacony, Land of the Dreams / Forge of the Kalpagni Lantern

Eagle of Twilight Line and Sprightly Vonwacq are optional sets for pursuing zero cycle, often paired with the Light Cone “Dance! Dance! Dance!”, with a speed threshold of 168. Penacony, Land of the Dreams is specialized for mono-Quantum teams, while Forge of the Kalpagni Lantern is primarily used to meet speed requirements.

Main Stats and Sub Stats Priority

Body	CRIT DMG
Feet	SPD
Sphere	HP / DEF
Rope	Energy Generation
Sub-Stats Priority	SPD > CRIT DMG > DEF

Prioritize meeting the team’s speed-tuning requirements.

For the Planar Sphere, focus first on substats (e.g., Crit DMG, SPD).

If using Fleet of the Ageless, invest in Effect Resistance accordingly.

For all other gear, maximize Crit DMG as much as possible.

Best Teams for Sparkle

Premium Team	Archer + Sparkle + Cipher + Gallagher	Archer’s damage scales directly with Skill Point availability, as his Skill gains power with consecutive uses. Sparkle is his ideal support due to her unmatched SP generation. Pair her with Seele (against Quantum-weak enemies) or Silver Wolf (otherwise). For sustain, Gallagher excels in SP efficiency, though any low-SP-cost sustain unit works well.
Skill-Point Burning Team	Dan Heng • Imbibitor Lunae + Sparkle + Ruan Mei + Luocha	Regardless of whether your Imbibitor Lunae has Eidolon 2, Sparkle enables him to take multiple consecutive turns due to her immense Skill Point generation. Her damage-boosting mechanics also synergize perfectly with his kit. Ruan Mei can be replaced with a sub-DPS such as Blade, and the sustain unit can be swapped for other healers or preservation characters like Fu Xuan.

Recommended Eidolons

• E2 provides the most significant early breakthrough: her Ultimate’s DMG Boost becomes permanent and gains an ATK% increase, which greatly benefits characters like Qingque and Imbibitor Lunae, making it highly cost-effective.
• E4 is a high-value constellation, granting a permanent 24% DEF reduction—a powerful and rare multiplier. Its effect becomes especially strong in mono-Quantum teams combined with Silver Wolf and the Quantum relic set.
• E6 is a whale-oriented upgrade: her Skill’s Crit DMG boost is extended to the entire team, enhancing her dual-carry support potential. It also increases the Skill’s Crit DMG bonus by an additional 30% of Sparkle’s own Crit DMG, meaning the higher her Crit DMG, the greater the payoff from this constellation.

Conclusion

At E0, Sparkle’s kit is already fully functional. The improvements from either E1 or her signature Light Cone over E0 are relatively modest. E2 provides the most significant early upgrade—it turns the DMG Boost from her Ultimate into a permanent effect and adds an ATK% increase. This ATK bonus is particularly valuable for characters like Qingque and Imbibitor Lunae, making E2 a highly cost-effective breakthrough.
