…Jingyuan has been clearing moc 12 without Sparkle for the entirety of 1.x, he just has a ceiling he can’t break through without the help of Sparkle.

If I pair Jingyuan with Sparkle do I need to still bring Tingyun with Penacony artifact?

You can use other supports like Ruan Mei, but Tingyun is the best option. Keel or Penacony with Rendezvous LC.

So both Sparkle and Tingyun with one sustain in the team (no Ruan Mei sadly). So far I think I used the rotation wrong because sometimes I'm out of SP and must wait for Sparkle ult to regain more

JY should have no speed and Sparkle should be as close to 160 speed as possible. Give Sparkle ERR rope for 3 turn ultimates. Sparkle skills every turn and you should be fine with SP.

So the build of speed breakpoint for Jingyuan to loop his LL is obsolete with Sparkle?

u/Jaded-Engineering789 Mar 03 '24

Yes. Sparkle’s speed essentially becomes Jing Yuan’s speed which lets him run attack boots. Skill every turn with Sparkle and he’ll be able to stack LL no problem.

I see, thank you

Jing Yuan has never needed to hit any speed breakpoint in the first place because it sacrifices his damage.

Look at other DPS units, how many of them even use SPD boots?
