Anis: Sparkling Summer Combat Overview
To start the guide, let’s look at Anis: Sparkling Summer’s Nikke Skills. As a Supporter Nikke, she focuses on enhancing her teammates on the battlefield. For starters, her Skill 1, Sparkling Boost, allows Anis: Sparkling Summer to enhance all of her Electric Code allies’ ATK by 55.31% of her ATK as well as providing Reloading Speed boost by 49.28% for 10 seconds.
Meanwhile, her Skill 2, Sparkling Missile, is pretty straightforward, as it allows Anis: Sparkling Summer to deal great damage to 2 enemies with the highest ATK when she hits them with her final bullet. Moreover, she gets a Damage to Interruption Parts bonus of 6.91% for 10 seconds, so her final bullet gets a substantial damage bonus compared to normal bullets.
And lastly, her Burst Skill, Sparkling Wave, allows Anis: Sparkling Summer to gain two buffs at once, Reloading Speed +27.72% and Damage as Strong Element +42.24% for 10 seconds, at the expense of Reduced Max Ammunition Capacity by 73.92% for 10 seconds.
Overall, Anis: Sparkling Summer is an incredible hybrid unit that combines both DPS and Support functions incredibly well. She is the best enhancer for her fellow Electric Code allies by a mile, enabling her to be a really viable option for your team compositions, especially when you have Scarlet at your disposal.
Skills Priority
Now that you know Anis: Sparkling Summer’s Skills, it’s time to move on to her Skills Priority. As she is a Supporter/Buffer, here is the hierarchy of what you should upgrade first (in descending order):
- Sparkling Boost: Anis: Sparkling Summer’s Skill 1 is definitely the best part of her kit since it allows her to greatly enhance her Electric Code allies, giving them a substantial DPS output increase. You should always prioritize this Skill over the other two.
- Sparkling Missile: The next Skill to prioritize is her Skill 2, Sparkling Missile. This skill allows her final bullet to deal additional damage bonuses, granting her an incredible DPS output through this Skill.
- Sparkling Wave: Lastly, Burst Skill has the lowest priority due to its nature of just increasing Reloading Speed for herself, so there is nothing remarkable going on with this Skill, and you should always prioritize the other Skills first.
Best Equipment Substats
Since Anis: Sparkling Summer is a Supporter-Class Nikke, she can only use the corresponding equipment designated for that Class. It is not necessary to put your Manufacturer’s Equipment on her as she’s not that demanding in terms of stats. Even Level 0 equipments are enough to make her a potent character on your team.
However, if you do have excess equipment and wish to place them on Anis: Sparkling Summer, I recommend you to look out for Increase Element Damage Dealt, Increase ATK, and Increase Hit Rate sub-stats if you wish to upgrade her equipment to Overload Tier to add some firepower to her kit.
In addition, try to avoid Increase Max Ammunition Capacity bonuses, since this will hamper her damage output from Skill 2 which requires Anis: Sparkling Summer to quickly fire off her last bullet.
Anis: Sparkling Summer’s Potential Team Composition
As for her potential teammates, Anis: Sparkling Summer is a very versatile Nikke that can fit into many team lineups, albeit more preferable for her to fit an Electro-based team composition. The reason for this is her Skill 1 which is incredibly useful to units such as Scarlet.
Her potential teammates are Liter, Blanc/Centi, Scarlet, and Noir/Privaty.
Thanks to her nature as a Burst 3 Nikke with a 40 seconds Burst Skill cooldown, she can pair relatively easily with other Burst 3 Nikkes such as Scarlet, Noir, and Privaty.
While Liter will still act as the main Supporter of the team, Anis: Sparkling Summer will act as the main support source for the Electric Code DPS units, providing them with plentiful buffs to enhance their attacking power. Meanwhile, Blanc acts as the Defender of the team, giving her potent Shielding ability as well as incredible healing powers to the team. Lastly, Scarlet will mow down the enemies very easily thanks to other Nikkes’ buffs and supports.
Best Stages to Use Anis: Sparkling Summer
Now that we’ve gone through Anis: Sparkling Summer’s Skills and her Team potential, it’s time to talk about her usability in the Boss stages. In Goddess of Victory: NIKKE, the hardest challenge that players must face are the Special Interception Bosses. As stated before, Anis: Sparkling Summer is a super versatile unit but she may need an Electric Code Nikkes such as Scarlet to truly shine.
And so, to close off this Anis: Sparkling Summer Nikke guide, we will provide a table that includes her usability against all Interception Bosses + Nihilister, Chapter 20’s Stage Boss, to provide insight about what Bosses she’s strong against and which are the ones you should avoid using her against.
Usability Table
Interception/Stage Bosses |
Usability Rank ( E – S) |
Explanations |
---|---|---|
Nihilister | A |
Nihilister is a Boss that requires top DPS units combined with healers and buffers to support them, and Anis: Sparkling Summer can shine here, as long as you have Scarlet as your main DPS. If not, then unfortunately Anis: Sparkling Summer does not have a place against Nihilister. |
Modernia | S |
Facing Modernia requires strong DPS and buffs to clear her Interception. Again, Anis: Sparkling Summer will do wonders here as long as one of your DPS units is Electro Coded. Recommended Lineup: Liter, Blanc, Noir, Anis: Sparkling Summer, and Scarlet. |
Chatterbox | S |
Chatterbox is the easiest Interception Boss, as he is less demanding compared to other Bosses. Anis: Sparkling Summer will shine here thanks to her massive buffs to other Electric Code Nikkes and her damage output. Recommended Lineup: Liter, Blanc, Noir, Scarlet, and Anis: Sparkling Summer. |
Blacksmith | S |
Blacksmith is another Interception Boss that is suitable for Anis: Sparkling Summer because Blacksmith is less demanding compared to Grave Digger or Alteisen, plus her kit and weapon can deal quick damage to Blacksmith’s barrages. Recommended Lineup: Dorothy/Liter, Blanc/Centi, Noir, Scarlet/Harran, and Anis: Sparkling Summer. |
Grave Digger | S | To complete Grave Digger Interception, you must gather a specific lineup consisting of Shotgun-based Nikkes, and Anis: Sparkling Summer fits that role perfectly. Too perfect, in fact, since she can mow down Grave Digger’s mechanism very quickly. |
Alteisen | A |
Alteisen’s quick missile and turret barrages must be countered by specific Nikkes such as Noise or Ludmilla. Unfortunately, even though Anis: Sparkling Summer’s buffs are exceptional, she may falter due to her lack of survival skills. Nonetheless, if you have Scarlet, then I still recommend you to have Anis: Sparkling Summer go with her. |
And that’s the character guide for Anis: Sparkling Summer for Goddess of Victory: NIKKE.
