She is basically a replacement for Bronya and a much better unit in every regard. Therefore, if you failed to pull forRuan Meiand still do not have Bronya, you will gain a lot by getting Sparkle. In case you have those units, Sparkle will still be a massive unit for you.

Best team comp for Sparkle

Sparkle is a universal support that works in a wide range of teams. However, thebest characters to pair herwith areAcheron(Eidolon 2), Pela, andAventurine. In this team, Acheron is the main DPS who can function with only one Nihility unit at Eidolon 2. Pela reduces the DEF of enemies and Aventurine functions as the sustain.

you may also run Silver Wolf instead of Aventurine for even more damage, even though it puts the team at risk of getting one-shot by bosses.

Sparkle is an exceptional unit to run alongside Dan Heng Imbibitor Lunae as well. It is becauseImbibitor Lunaeis Skill Point hungry and Sparkle’s abilities ensure there is more than enough to use for the former.

Additionally, you’re able to also run a team comprised ofSparkle, Qingque,Fu Xuan, andSilver Wolf.This is a mono Quantum team that can clear most of the content in the game. You can replace Qingque in this team by Seele if you want.
