A COMPLETE Guide to Sparkle! | Relics, Light Cones, Teams, Speed
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 25 июн 2024
- Here is my complete guide to Sparkle, the newest Harmony unit in Honkai: Star Rail and our SECOND Limited Harmony 5 Star! She brings crazy CRIT buffs, amazing Action Advance, and some Skill Point generation that no other character can provide! I fully explain her kit, and I also go through Sparkle's best relics, light cones including her signature, main stats, and stat goals. I also give some important energy rotations and provide synergies and Sparkle teams! I also discuss Sparkle vs Bronya and Ruan Mei, and how to use Sparkle AND Bronya! Let me know below if you're pulling Sparkle!
Have a guoba day! ˁ(◠ᴥ◠)ˀ

WHOS PULLING? Is she more universal than you thought? Or are you saving for MEI?
NOTES:
- DONT LOOK AT THE TRACE BONUSES ICONS D:
- The Topaz Ratio Huohuo team was just a representation of what her SP Generation can do. E1S1 Topaz makes it technically okay but not perfect debuff wise, but it was just showing how all 3 can skill spam / the 2 DPS can depending on your Sparkle
i lost
The HP with the atk icon 😂
Real talk, why does this 4 foot tall menace have the 3rd highest base HP in the game lol.
Thank god I have Fu Xuan E1. I can skip CD chest and instead gave her DEF chest with 6 speed and CD subs and still break 220%
So that she doesnt die in one hit like tingyussy 😂@@shadycat8898
Sparkle enabling atk% boot setups (or HP% in Blade's case) really makes me wish we'd get Relic loadouts already.
Been waiting almost 4 years for that in genshin, but then again hsr is the favorite child so do not lose hope!
likewise, there being so many units that need speedtuning also makes me wish we had relic loadouts already. I'm using not leveled units as a broke man's relic loadout.
Sparkle is basically propagation path in a character lol. Since I've had a taste of it with Dan Heng IL, I pulled and got her lol 😂
Huh
@@bruhifysson9005Huh
oh god not my spd equation...
Love the video, by the way. I think you covered her playstyles really well, and the graphics were super helpful.
Guoba looking kind of cute ✨
Impatiently waiting her banner in NA
thank you neo :)
WOULD
I have Crit Dmg substat on all of her equipment pieces and proceed to roll into none of them.
Definitive Hoyo game experience.
Average relic grind
Same for me but with speed
My mono quantum dreams are dead thanks to Himeko, but at least now I'm all in on guaranteed Acheron.
Good luck on everyone's pulls.
I'm so sorry to hear this, I hope you get double 5 stars in your next pull 🙏
Atleast you got someone useful (pure fiction). I got e2 Yanqing
Sorry to hear that you got the himeko curse. She plagued my first two 50/50s too, so I can relate.
I got a different Harmony character but we still have 27 days so don't give up
Don't give up bro. I lost mine to himeko too ahahaha. We have 27 days to grind more summons man, and on the bright side you're now guaranteed
Heavily appreciate the calculations on lightcones, I was on the fence but I'll probably save for Acheron's now.
good to see jas's work represented. awesome video
the chef of the shared feelings cook :D hope he enjoys my vid
Now that a few five star harmony units are released I'd LOVE to see a video comparing 4 star with 5 star harmony units to see how much better the buffing actually is. The main reason I'd like to see something like this is because I already have many 4 star harmony units built, and I'm not sure whether it's worth the stellar jades (and resources to a lesser extent) to wish for and build 5 star ones.
Harmony is probably the best path for both 4 and 5 star characters, they'll always find their niche.
@@katep.1465This, seems that every, if not most harmony units will have the archetype they support and it depends on the individual unit and the kind of teams it enables or enhances to make the decision. Like if they release a Harmony unit that greatly buffs Follow Up Attacks, and you don't like that play style or don't have the team for that, you can probably skip it.
If one thing I'm sure of, Ruan Mei is literally future proof. Her kit buffs DPS characters, DOT characters, and FUA characters.
i think its nice to have at least one limited 5 star harmony because so far, you cannot go wrong with picking up any 1 of them
We'll see after Robin comes out
Had to watch a couple other sparkle guides to fully grasp what all her playstyles really mean. This is a really well put together guide!
From my testing, I found out that in the Slow Blade + Sparkle + Bronya comp, if you do:
Sparkle's Skill on Blade, Blade's turn, Bronya skill on Blade, Blade Ult (before his turn starts), he gains the bonuses of both skills at the same time.
I got some crisp 250k dmg ults from my E1 Blade this way
I spent 160 pulls to E1 her, and I now have to deal with speed tuning hell. This fits the sadist nature of sparkle really well. I need some rest after watching this video.
IM SORRY
I'm always waiting for the next character guide video cause of your cute cosplays... love your channel, it always helps me a lot! s2
Happy to help and glad you like my sprites :D
Currently at 77 pity on a 50/50. I was hesitant on pulling her, but her trailer absolutely got me sold. Hopefully I win the 50/50. ;w;
Goodluck on your pulls!
Good luck, and share your results if you don't mind
Update?
The effects of ‘Mask’ apply to the user of the light cone aswell
The Sparkle banner still doesn't appear on the American server, I can't wait for it to come out now 😢
the long wait begins D:
11 hours
5 more hours for the EU Server 😭
She's out now xD
Did u guys win?
The only guy I trust when it comes to guides! Thank you
Thanks for the video. On your upcoming team comp video, it would be nice to have a spreadsheet for each DPS (or team comps) and the preferred Sparkle gameplay
Let’s say, for example:
DPS | Fast Sprk | Slow Sprk | BSPAM
Blade | O | O | X
FUA | O | O | X
If it’s not too much of a hassle or if the video is already done, of course. It would be a good reference for future dps/content
Thank you a lot
Amazing guide as always, thank you!
you had this setup like this came out on point
Great video, helped a lot. Just got her and the lc and was confused with relics/teams 😅
Ty so much Mr. Sparkly Guoba great video as usual 💖
NEW GUOBA VIDEO HELL YEAHH, thanks!!!
Great guide! I can FINALLY call up silverwolf from off the bench. Honestly forgot how to play her its been so long
I loved it when Sparkle said "It's Sparkling time" and Sparkled all over my 10 pull.
"but that kinda minmaxy" is the most ironic line I've heard
20:05 lol I said that to my friend , Huohuo is one of the biggest Winners with sparkle , she feels much better with her now that she can spam her skill more
Thanks for your hard work Sparkle
You made me log in just to say, I am a massive Sparkle fan and your guide is the best of all of them to me.
means a lot
Awesome work! Who knew math could be so much fun :)
Dude, you're amazing with the speed tuning values.
@@guobacertified honestly i was looking at guides of other creators like dreamy and pokke, and you're the only one that bothered to show a spd value of bronya+sparkle skill spam for an economic dps like blade/arlan/jing liu...
how did it not cross any other guidemakers' mind to pair them both and make a dps act as much as possible?
can you go in your next sparkle video on more detail with that pairing?
a few questions that come to mind are:
-how fast can the sparkle+bronya duo be before bleeding AV from a slow dps.
for example, if i'm playing slow blade. i want to sparkle>blade>bronya>blade
-how slow if possible can the sparkle+bronya duo be before bleeding AV from a fast dps.
for example, if i'm playing spd boots blade. is it possible to do blade>sparkle>blade>bronya>blade? i'm guessing bronya would have to be a lot slower than sparkle but my math is bad.
Thanks for the video. I got Sparkle, she looks nice ❤
Got her in 25. Good thing your guide is already up :D
Now if only we had the shooting in the head animation from her trailer as skill animation, she'd be perfect. Huge missed opportunity
I've been waiting for this
first time winning 50/50 on a unit that i really want + snagged her light cone as well.
i dont think i'm going to continue for her eidolons now though.
time to study this video
Gratz! And yea E0S1 is a great place to be
also the same thing happened to me now i no longer have to gamble for acheron lc all is guaranteed
Love your videos, thank you ✨✨✨
Damn bro people were rolling and u were uploading. Nice video❤
whilst they were gambling, i studied the blade
@@guobacertified Given the quality of your guide on him, it's obvious you studied the Blade.
Special media server, nothing new. It's why most big creators release their video at once before banners are even out on their server...
@@guobacertified typical Guoba move, helping the human race while everyone else is just trying to eat raw veggies
I can't wait to get her i have her guaranteed gotta wait 12 hours now
Hope you enjoy her!
Pulled her on the very first attempt - finally some good luck!
I love your pixelated Guoba cosplays
so glad i got her and her light cone, ive had e2 seele lowkey benched for so long, even have e1 sw and e1 fu xuan just for seele. im going for e1 sparkle later just for the fun of it XD
on 18:00 when you talked about seele team do you mean S5 DDD Sparkle ? or planetary work too
Would the 168 SPD sparkle work with a TY running DDD as she could give the adv when needed and would this then allow the dps to then catch up to sparkles speed for 3 dps actions?
Thank you for going over basic spam. I think it's being shut down by too many people so it's nice to see someone mention in a vid finally.
I like looking for every kit option possible, discussing how it works and if it can work :D Basic Spam sparkle can see some amazing use in the future depending on what units drop, but also RN she has cool uses
pulled E2 sparkle first eidolons in the game after saving since long ago. love her.
I cannot wait for her!!
So this is Xingqiu + Yelan situation all over again.
They can replace each other in a team, but best when in the same team.
And if you need 2 teams for something, you're chilling because you countered their weakness of not being able to be on both teams
Both yelan and sparkle is better
People arguing over Bronya vs Sparkle (Xingqiu vs Yelan) while Ruan Mei (Furina) is chilling
@@xxx_lolidestroyer69_xxxuwu58 furina is so specific u cant compare her to other supports and ruan mei is for dual/dot comps so whats ur point
@@miserlys ruan mei can be for any, follow up dual dps, dual dps, hypercarry, dot
Heya, love your videos thanks for your hard work. Do you think that one of your next videos could be some general tips and team recommendations for elements in Pure Fiction? Given its turn limit and whatnot some teams are way better than they usually are, and some, like hypercarry seem to be lagging quite a bit sadly, id love to hear your thoughts on it.
Ill note this down :)
Holy mr poetatoe made this on the dot, banger guide, and much appreciated
Damage over Time reference? :)
@@guobacertified lol i was just thinking about the time
As a general rule of thumb, would it be better to have 160 speed but few CRIT DMG substats for a ATK boots carry, or -1 SPD and moderate crit substats on a SPD boots carry? Primarily planning to use with QQ mono quantum if it matters, but using Rutilant either way so by no means locking myself in.
is e1 + s1 bronya sig lc make it somewhat viable for a non-blade/arlan dps? I am perfectly fine using blade cuz he's awesome but wanna see if this team is flexible
I'm pulling Sparkle and with some luck maybe even her LC I'm so hyped! Almost all my DPSes happened to be followups so she's amazing for me (also a big Huohuo enjoyer). I am very tiny brained about spd - should SW be faster than Sparkle, to debuff/implant the enemy before I bring my DPS forward with Sparkle skill?
Is it still worth getting her if the only dps i wanna ple is my e2 danheng? I hve a-ruan alr and e6 hanya
Hanabi is such a godsend tbh. Now I can run QQ with Hanabi and Argenti/Daniel with Bronya for each chamber MOC. Definitely best support tbh.
Been saving for Propogation Path and Swarm just for when she comes out. Me, her and DHIL are gonna have a TIME hehe
Thanks for the guide. I intended to skip sparkle, but I got lucky and pulled her in first 20 pulls. Still enough for archeon
Rip still another like 10 hrs for na, cant wait to add her to my qq,sw & fx team, gonna have to keep coming back to this video for reference 🙏
I was tempted to get her sig lightcone after seeing it's stats, and frankly it seems perfect for Bronya too so I wanted to get 2 of them, but I think I'll go with Planetary for now and save my pulls for Acheron. Also I may be a casual here but seeing "slow Sparkle" having 135 speed would make her faster than all of my characters except Ruan Mei and Seele, so I'm probably just sitting here on bad relics. Thanks for the detailed guide.
Regarding her basic attack build, if you have shared feelings S5 (recommended) or Quid Pro Quo S4 (minimum. has inconsistency problems)) on a healer and Cogs LC (or the 4star version) S5 on Sparkle, you can hit the forbidden 2 turn ult on Sparkle, making her a 3 SP/Turn generator.
I can't wait to get my hand on the unit and test things out.
That’s in the vid :)
Saw it afterwards, I stopped on the first mention to comment it. Mb king.@@guobacertified
@@guobacertified Yup, you're right. I made the comment before reaching that section. My bad King.
With almost zero pity did a 10 pull and got 2 sparkle so now im here for the guide lol.
Hey there little bear (or anyone else for that matter :P), what do y'all think of seele (e2s1) with (presumably) e0s1 fast sparkle, slow e1s1 bronya and huohuo?
I don't think sp is gonna be a huge problem due to sparkle's insane generation + bronya's e1 and lc, but if anyone has some numbers or other valuable info that would be greatly appreciated. Ty :)
Currently saving for mei. If you have calcs on mei + sparkle that'd help me decide if I want e0s0 spark still or just e2s1 ach
Sorry if you get asked all the time but do you do the pixel art for your guides?
On note of Sparkle, I kind of want to pull her cause Reina but I want Acheron since I like Miyuki Sawashiro too and I need carry characters so bad 😭
I do the pixel art :D this one was a ton of fun
GL for acheron !
Gonna pull for sparkle rerun, just because of acheron
@@guobacertified thats awesome!
@@guobacertified Pixel art drawing video when?
thank you for this guide! unfortunately I gave in to e1 black swan so I only have like one ten pull right now. I hope I can still get sparkle or acheron 🙏
also, and I hate I'm admitting this, your pixel guoba reminds me of fnaf because of the tie LOL
Did you find out anything about Sparkle and E2 Imbibitor Lunae?
For instance her potential damage increase over E4 Hanya and her best Lightcone with E2 IL?
Hello! I’m sorry for asking. I’m a new player. If I can only get Sparkle until about 134 speed and my DPS is even slower than her, should I still use “fast sparkle” as a guide for relics or I can just use any relics at this point and won’t lose out on DPS? I still do not completely understand the AV mechanics I am sorry.
Is new 4* moc lc usable on her? Don't think past and future work with speed tune Seele and don't have the gacha options.
Didn't intend to pull BUT since she sneaked in my account basically for free, I guess I'll have to finish watching your video !
got her lc first pull and guaranteed sparkle, can confirm shes the best support i have (second is bronya hahaha)
I fully performed for her so I used messenger with keel. I am currently at 169 speed with 4.8k hp, 1.7k def, 47.2% effect res and 181% crit dmg. Is that good or not? I am a bit confused as from what you said on relics with wind set instead of messenger. Also on another note do I need 200% crit dmg? Would love any advice?
I got her and I can say she completed my heart❤
Another certified banger from Guoba "GuobaCertified" Certified, can't wait to use her with my Himeko, stocks will rise!!!
Thank you Edison "Math Club Owner" Maths Club
As an alternative for her Relic sets, I actually suggest a combo of the Messenger and Disciple sets. It can still help you for the SPD goal stat along with giving Sparkle a measure of survivability via the bonus for 12% HP from the Disciple set. If you're lucky with the substats distribuition, you should still fulfill your stat goals with Sparkle and she can still become quite useful.
Great video. i wonder what the SP calculations are for E1S1 bronya, as im wondering if that team is sustainable in the long run
does sparkle with 34% energy get 2 turn rotation or close? lost weapon banner to bronya LC
2 Turn Bronya Cone needs QPQ :) in rotation section
Thx for the video bro
got her to 161 speed but only 150% cmdg with vonwaq would i be able to run a bit lower speed and still get the same effect? im kinda forced into fast sparkle because im running with jing yuan and we all know how speed goes with him awesome vid thank you for the information and entertainment as always
Guoba do you have an opinion or any math for how much of an increase sparkle is for quantum teams? Im curious how much stronger she is than bronya there specifically because its very hard to calculate
Sto tempting me to pull sparkle XD already need acheron snd acenturine but now sparkle. Not fisr we get 4 amazing char in a row
So, for S1 Jingliu, is her best 0 cycle team still Herself, E1 Ruan Mei, E2S1 Bronya, E6S5 Pearls Pela, or does Pela get replaced by Sparkle?
i have a jing/ting/topaz/huohuo team
should i replace tingyun with sparkle or is tingyun still too important to jingyuan?
I pulled for her LC because Hanya can actually make use of it quite well.
Hey Guoba, I've got something you missed that I feel is important to mention: E2 Bronya light cone and 5% ERR ornaments enables consistent 3T ults WITHOUT an ERR rope.
I believe this is important for people to know, as an avenue for avoiding needing to farm speed substats on an ERR rope is important. Since Sparkle is a unit whose use can heavily depend on meeting breakpoints requiring lots of substats of the rarest substat in the game, allowing ANY rope to be used potentially makes that MUCH more achievable as a stat goal. Not to mention it allows for a more tanky Sparkle build too with a HP or DEF rope.
And I know it may seem silly to recommend E2 of a five star cone, as it seems quite out of reach for a lot of players, but in the same vein it is very in reach for any player who happened to get one copy of Bronyas cone from standard/cone banner and then just saves enough to buy E2 from the shop (and you can save 1200 of the currency to buy two copies worst case, which sadly may be easier to do than farming for speed subs on an ERR rope lol).
I personally feel that farming speed substats to hit high speed breakpoints is kinda miserable, especially when it is tied to enabling fun use of characters. An alternative avenue to enabling doing so without needing to get the rarest main stat relic with the rarest substat that also needs to hopefully roll into said substat when upgrading is a pretty big deal that should be mentioned. So my plan is to get E2 Bronya cone in the shop as soon as I get Sparkle for most of my use case for her.
Anyhow, great guide as always. You finally gave me reason to farm wind set, so I am off to lose my mind there for the next seven years trying to get 161 speed for a S5 Dance^3 Sporkle build lol
Ye I mean it’s always been able to replicate the 19% energy just like post op at a certain point can, but s2 bronya cone 🗿
Good point though , thanks for mentioning it yourself since speed is so hard to hit :)
This is good news for me, since I have s2 of bronya cone. Sounds like a good time
@@guobacertified Yeah its not new, just more relevant on sparkle since it has inherent synergy with her kit and her need for speed lol
Just got her and her light cone in 20 pulls! I need a proper dps next
First, thank you for the amazing work as you do always,
Second, can you make the guides more simpler, like for this scenario - team use this setup, ex the part (17:17 Sparkle Synergies & Team Compositions) is great, i get confused when you present so many options (should I use fast or slow and when, should i farm Wind set),
Please assume most of us do not have S5 DDD, and no wind set.
I can never see you the same after watching mr pokkee’s video 😭 2 meter Frenchman model playing honkai star rail and making guide this is crazy
Respect! :)
Do you know if 3x Penacony is ideal for a Mono Quantum team now? I'm sure someone's done some theorycrafting for this but i couldn't find it anywhere.
Also, I cannot stress enough how much the stat goals you put in your videos have been a lifesaver. Keep up the great content :)
Broken Keel is generally better anyway and helps your supports not get CC'd. When you can't use the energy there's little point in using Penacony. Keep in mind that all our Quantum DPS have massive DMG% self steroids. If running Sparkle AND Bronya the calculus might change though, but then Bronya also has a lot of DMG% too.
@@bjornnilsson2941 Makes sense. I’m not completely aware of the game’s damage formula so I have no clue whether 30% DMG or 30% CRIT DMG is more valuable
@@SpielernDMG% is more valuable in a vacuum, because its the last multiplier considered, but they're multiplicative of each other, so stacking only one side is less valuable, also DMG% is already gained from example from the elemental damage% orb, and from many supports such as Bronya and Ruan Mei.
For example: 100 x 1.3 x 1.3 = 169, but 100 x 1.6 x 1.0 = 160 if you get my point.
Sparkle with Dual Wielding DoT is now my best friend.
I'm a 3 week player who pulled e6 qingque while getting sparkle and my only dps are dr. ratio and herta. QQ seems like a good investment to cover both my MoC and PF needs for awhile? I can only clear the first stage of both so far since my characters are capped at level 70
I skipped all the DoT stuff. So happy to hopefully get Sparkle!
best guides. thank you sir
Tempted to get her cuz I have dhil ruan mei and bronya, also have my dot team separately and hoping I can build them up but idk what buffer I should keep on my dhil team or my dot team😭
Edit: I am in a very good situation rn as I just used the 18 pulls I had on this banner and got yanqing early, so hopefully I still have enough before her banner ends OR, I could get either jing liu or fu xuan when they rerun. Or if I’m lucky I get both
so what type of sparkle build would you recommended for a slow build E2 S1 DH IL?
I got confused on how you use DDD on fast Sparkle. You can't ult on Sparkle's turn, since that doesn't advance Sparkle and is wasted on the DPS who you will already make act after Sparkle with her skill. Using the ult on the DPS turn will advance forward Sparkle, but not the DPS so it can desync the DPS. So do you wait to use Sparkle's ult after Sparkle and your DPS already had their turn? Or am I missing something?
I wasn't busy playing another gacha to get Black Swan
I was merely saving the grind for Sparkle (and Acheron).
Definitely not copium
HOLY ACTIONFORWARD
GATHERING ALL THE GOOD LUCK TO WIN SPARKLE
Mono quantum incoming.
One of my most wanted character finally ariving. Hope she will spare some pulls for Acheron tho.
Good luck for anyone who is pulling.
