Here is my complete updated guide to the new Sparkle and her Novaflare, coming out in Honkai: Star Rail 4.0. She got so much better thanks to much nicer SP economy, quality of life buffs, duration extension on her damage amplification, as well as a boost to her amp in general! I'll go through her changes, how they impacted her, and any updates on her build (not much lol). Let me know what you think of Sparkle in 4.0! Ty to Ruri Goko for peer reviewing some stuff.
I hope this HSR Sparkle guide and gameplay helps anyone out! Have a guoba day!
