At a Glance
Strengths & Weaknesses
Bronya
- Ultimate “The Belobog March” buffs allies’ damage for a short window—time it for the carry’s damage window instead of casting on cooldown out of habit.
- “Combat Redeployment” action-advances an ally with a damage amp attached—one Skill Point buys a full extra carry turn.
- Talent “Leading the Way” After using her Basic ATK, Bronya's next action will be Advanced Forward by 38%—ignore it and Bronya plays like a worse generic Harmony unit.
- Buff windows on “The Belobog March” are short—casting them when the carry cannot attack wastes the CRIT DMG/ATK amp for a full cycle.
- Bronya’s Skill is often the expensive part of the rotation; SP-negative teams force Basic ATKs and you lose the advance/amp that made the unit worth playing.
- Spamming “Combat Redeployment” every turn without watching Skill Points strands the rest of the team—Bronya is often the SP sink.
Sparkle
- Ultimate “The Hero with a Thousand Faces” Recovers 4 Skill Points for the team and grants all allies Cipher—time it for the carry’s damage window instead of casting on cooldown out of habit.
- Skill “Dreamdiver” action-advances an ally with a damage amp attached—this is the spend that keeps the rotation honest.
- Talent “Red Herring” While Sparkle is on the battlefield, additionally increases the max number of Skill Points by 2—miss the stack conditions and the burst window feels empty.
- Buff windows on “The Hero with a Thousand Faces” are short—casting them when the carry cannot attack wastes the CRIT DMG/ATK amp for a full cycle.
- Sparkle’s Skill is often the expensive part of the rotation; SP-negative teams force Basic ATKs and you lose the advance/amp that made the unit worth playing.
- Spamming “Dreamdiver” every turn without watching Skill Points strands the rest of the team—Sparkle is often the SP sink.
