At a Glance
Strengths & Weaknesses
Hanya
- Ultimate “Ten-Lords' Decree, All Shall Obey” Increases the SPD of a target ally by 22.5% of Hanya's SPD and increases the same target ally's ATK by 72%—time it for the carry’s damage window instead of casting on cooldown out of habit.
- Skill “Samsara, Locked” dumps a large single-target multiplier into one elite—this is the spend that keeps the rotation honest.
- Talent “Sanction” When an ally uses a Basic ATK—ignore it and Hanya plays like a worse generic Harmony unit.
- Buff windows on “Ten-Lords' Decree, All Shall Obey” are short—casting them when the carry cannot attack wastes the CRIT DMG/ATK amp for a full cycle.
- Hanya’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.
- As a 4★ Harmony unit, Hanya is easy to gear for early/mid game but usually loses the niche race to a modern limited option once that banner is built.
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.
