Sparkle Leaked Kit and Abilities

NOTE: Sparkle's Kit and Abilities have NOT been officially confirmed by HoYoverse and are subject to change before official release.

Being a Harmony unit we can expect Sparkle's skills to add to the Honkai Star Rail support roster, offering teammates a lot of utility.

As of right now, she will be the second Limited 5-star Harmony unit, after Ruan Mei which is set to launch in Version 1.6. Currently, the leaks below give us what we need to know about Sparkle's kit and Abilities!

Sparkle's Abilities

ATK

Basic ATK

  • Deals Quantum DMG to a single enemy
SKILL

Skill

  • Increases an ally’s HP and ATK for two turns and their action forwards. Sparkle cannot use the action-forward effect on herself
ULT

Ultimate

  • Restores 4 skill points for all allies, and if the points are full, each extra skill point will add one temporary skill point, a maximum of two points. All allies obtain a Mask, which will increase Sparkle’s talent effect for two turns.
 

Talent

  • When an ally uses a skill point, Sparkle immediately increases their damage.
 

Technique

Keep in mind that this information is still subject to change and Sparkle's kit and abilities can change at any time before release.

How to get Sparkle

Given the way drip marketing has worked so far, we can speculate that Sparkle will appear on a Limited Character Banner in the second half of Version 2.0. This means players will be able to get her some time in February, or even March, which still gives players a lot of time to save for her!
