Role: Electro Support / ATK Buffer
Best For: Players who want an Electro-focused support who can provide ATK buffs and additional Electro CRIT DMG at C6.
1. Recommended Artifacts
4-Piece Emblem of Severed Fate — A strong general option for Kujou Sara, providing Energy Recharge while increasing the damage of her Elemental Burst.
Alternative: 4-Piece Noblesse Oblige can provide an additional teamwide ATK buff after using her Burst when no other teammate is already using the set.
2. Recommended Weapons
Premium: Skyward Harp
Alternatives: Elegy for the End, Sacrificial Bow, Mouun’s Moon
F2P: Fading Twilight
Sara’s ATK buff scales with her Base ATK, so weapons with higher Base ATK improve the buff she provides. Energy Recharge is also valuable because her Elemental Burst has a high Energy cost.
Fading Twilight is a useful F2P option because it combines relatively high Base ATK with Energy Recharge, supporting both her buff and Burst uptime.
3. Recommended Teams
Raiden Hypercarry: Raiden Shogun + Kujou Sara + Kazuha + Bennett
Mono Electro: Raiden Shogun + Yae Miko + Kujou Sara + Kazuha
Raiden–Yae: Raiden Shogun + Yae Miko + Kujou Sara + Xilonen
Sara is most valuable in teams built around an Electro damage dealer. At C6, characters buffed by her Tengu Juurai gain 60% Electro CRIT DMG, making her particularly valuable for Electro-focused hypercarry teams.
4. Main Stats / Substats
Sands: Energy Recharge / ATK%
Goblet: Electro DMG Bonus
Circlet: CRIT Rate / CRIT DMG
Priority: Energy Recharge → CRIT → ATK%
Sara needs enough Energy Recharge to use her Elemental Burst consistently, especially because of its high Energy cost. After reaching comfortable Burst uptime, CRIT and ATK can improve her personal damage.
Her artifact ATK% does not increase the ATK buff she gives teammates. Like Bennett, the buff is based on her Base ATK, making character and weapon levels more important for increasing it.
5. Playstyle
Use Sara’s Elemental Skill to activate Crowfeather Cover, then create a Crowfeather with a Charged Attack. Its explosion deals Electro damage and grants an ATK buff to characters within its area.
Her Elemental Burst can also provide the same ATK buff, making it convenient to use before switching to the team’s main Electro damage dealer. At C2, Sara becomes easier to play because her Skill can create a Crowfeather without requiring the Charged Attack setup.
6. F2P
Sara can perform her support role without a 5-star weapon. Fading Twilight is a useful F2P choice if you obtained it, while other high-Base-ATK or Energy Recharge bows can be used depending on your available weapons.
F2P players should prioritize enough Energy Recharge for reliable rotations and level Sara’s Elemental Skill to strengthen her ATK buff. Her C6 is powerful for Electro teams, but she can still provide ATK support before reaching it.
*StoryBillion Tip: Kujou Sara’s ATK buff works similarly to Bennett’s—it scales from Base ATK rather than artifact ATK%. If your goal is stronger team support, leveling Sara and using a high-Base-ATK weapon matters more than stacking ATK% artifacts.
