Version 3.4 introduced two powerhouse units: Sparkle and Robin, both top-tier Harmony supports redefining the meta. But what if you're a free-to-play player who couldn't pull either?
Good news—you’re not locked out of high-level content. This guide showcases F2P-friendly builds and teams that thrive in Memory of Chaos, Pure Fiction, and Stagnant Shadows—all without the expensive banner stars.
Whether you're building around free units like Dr. Ratio or staple 4-stars like Asta, these comps will help you climb without blowing your Stellar Jade.
π§ͺ Why Build Without Sparkle or Robin?
-
𧱠Limited Stellar Jade: F2P players must pick banners wisely.
-
π§ SP Economy Still Works: With clever tuning, many older supports can fill the Harmony gap.
-
π§ 3.4 Buffs & QoL Changes: Enhanced team building tools help even casual players optimize gear and rotations.
