Overview
Sparkle buffs allies with CRIT DMG and action advance through her Skill. Her Ultimate restores Skill points and buffs the team. She scales off her own CRIT DMG stat — build CRIT DMG on Sparkle to increase buff values.
How to Play
Use Skill on your Main DPS before their burst window. Use Ultimate for team-wide buffs and Skill point recovery. Sparkle should act frequently — build high SPD. Her action advance lets Hunt DPS take extra turns.
Optimal Rotation
Sparkle Skill on DPS → DPS burst window → Sparkle Ultimate for team buff → Sparkle Skill again → repeat. Weave Basic Attacks to build Energy between Skills. Prioritize buffing the Main DPS over other allies.
Strengths
Best Harmony buffer for Hunt teams. Action advance enables double turns. Skill point recovery prevents resource starvation. Works with almost any Main DPS.
Weaknesses
Less valuable in AoE/Erudition teams where action advance matters less. Requires CRIT DMG investment to maximize buffs. Overkill for content that does not need speed optimization.
Investment Priority
E0 is perfect. Build SPD and CRIT DMG — ignore ATK%. Dance! Dance! Dance! at S5 is a great F2P cone. Level Skill first, then Ultimate.
