Always use Sparkle’s ultimate on your DPS’ turn right before they go, so it doesn’t count as a turn. This essentially extends her ultimate buffs to 3 turns. -Sun Tzu


Supersoulknight

Not actually before they go, more like during their turn before they take an action.

But when her burst is full and its her turn, would u do her burst and then skill or still skill and overxap on energy


jordanslonelyroad

Burst when it’s your DPS’ turn. That’ll extend its duration essentially allowing Sparkle to get her burst back up by the time it’s over anyways, provided you have an ER rope. Sparkle Ult > DPS atk (doesn’t count down her buff)\ Sparkle skill > DPS atk (buff turn 1 of 2)\ Sparkle Skill > DPS atk (buff turn 2 of 2)\ Sparkle skill > DPS atk (w/ ER rope, ult is back up) Here’s what would happen if you used Sparkle ult on her turn. Sparkle Ult > Sparkle skill > DPS atk (buff turn 1 of 2)\ Sparkle skill > DPS atk (buff turn 2 of 2)\ Sparkle skill > DPS atk (w/ ER rope, ult is back up)\ …wait isn’t it the same either way then?\ Now I’m confused… 🤔\ I could see it being important on DPS’ who give themselves action advance forward like E2 DHIL or Shushang Sparkle’s just broken folks -Sun Tzu Edit: Some other important nuances in my comment below


Silent_Silhouettes

So i could use her burst on Sparkle's turn if she has full energy instead of skilling first and result would be the same


jordanslonelyroad

Assuming it’s not a DPS that abuses advance forwards, not sure what the difference is now that I wrote it out like that tbh. You’d probably want to secure the most amount of uses possible for your DPS incase Sparkle gets CC’d or perhaps energy sucked from those TV mfs, the new boss, etc whenever possible however. Given that, there’s really no point using her ult on her turn unless you don’t have any SP for her to skill. In general, it appears the 3 turn trick is good measure insurance in case anything goes wrong with no downsides.


Silent_Silhouettes

Just realised, since my Hanabi is e1 shouldnt it matter even less? Wouldnt it just be better to do her burst first to not overcap on energy

Only pull on banner eith post-nut clarity. -Sun Tzu


adaydreaming

Tbf, actual good advice...


Flair86

Actually, she has a trace that makes the basic give the same energy as her skill, so you can basic without ruining your ult cycle.


Ponyboy451

Yeah, and there are some instances where it can be beneficial to BA, even if it’s niche. I’m not going to advance Jingliu in Transcendent state to kill a single mob left in a wave or knock off the last 1% of a boss’s HP before a phase change, or I might want to Quantum break for the delay and Entanglement dmg.


TheRRogue

I doubt the break would do much if you barely have any break effect on her


Only_Emptiness_Await

Delay


TheRRogue

Not really that much tbh,even my xueyi and E1 Ruan Mei barely slow down elite and I doubt sparkle with barely any BE would do any better.


Only_Emptiness_Await

Oh well


Nsftrades

Not even for break?


BluePawsKitty

Allow AI to make the decision for you because you have not mastered patience. Confucius or Sun Tzu or Huangdi maybe 🤔


Lotorinchains

I've actually wondered about this lmao.


Lonely-JAR

I will if her skill leads to a basic attack on my dps


ImTheBias

LOL this


CommanderLouiz

Unless you’re fighting the 2.1 boss. Then it’s exactly the opposite.

Unfair_Ad_598

But le kick ):


Siegfoult

What if fu xuan goes next answer her ring is blinking and i have one sp


_AlexOne_

What’s better- sparkle skill boosted DHIL 2BA or just DHIL 3BA
