The best build for Sparkle is the one that focuses on improving her CRIT DMG, SPD and Energy Regeneration Rate while using Light Cones and Relics that help her further bolster her abilities to improve the damage dealt by allies, especially the next turn unit.

That being said, here are some key points about Sparkle's character kit that you should know about before we share our recommendations for the Light Cones, Relics, Planar Ornaments and the Team Comps.

  • Sparkle's 'Dream Diver' skill improves the CRIT DMG of a single ally by 30% of her own CRIT DMG with an additional 52.2% at max level.
  • The Dream Diver skill also advances the action of the ally by 50%.
  • Sparkle's 'The Hero with a Thousand Faces' Ultimate recovers 4 Skill Points for the team.
  • The Ultimate also grants the Allies a special effect called Cipher.
  • Cipher: It increases the effect of Sparkle's Talent, 'Red Herring,' whenever an ally triggers the damage boost effect.
  • Sparkle's Red Herring Talent increases the Skill Points count by 2. Moreover, if any unit consumes it, all allies' damage is increased.
  • When you use Sparkle's 'Unreliable Narrator' Technique, she will grant Stealth to allies for 20 seconds.
  • The characters in Stealth mode will not get detected by enemies.
  • If you enter the battlefield in Stealth mode, you will recover 3 Skill Points for the team.

Now you can see why we put emphasis on improving Sparkle's CRIT DMG and other mentioned stats, as they directly improve the efficiency of her character kit.

As always, the best Light Cone to use on Sparkle is going to be her signature Light Cone, Earthly Escapade (⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐), which increases her CRIT DMG by 32%.

Apart from that, Sparkle also gains a Mask at the beginning of the battle for 3 turns. While she has the Mask, her allies have their CRIT Rate increased by 10%, and CRIT DMG increased by 28%.

Moreover, she also recovers a Skill Point (including Skill Points exceeding the limit) and gains a stack of Radiant Flame, and when she has 4 Radiant Flame stacks, she removes all the stacks and gains Mask for 4 turn(s).
