Ability Tips

When utilized as a Viridescent Venerer (4) artifact set holder, make sure you don’t immediately swap away after casting Skill/Burst, you need to be on-field when the swirl reaction happens for you to trigger the 4-set effect.

Gameplay Tips

Sucrose’s Ascension 4 Talent boosts the entire team’s EM by 20% of Sucrose’s total EM, this is why you want to stack as much Elemental Mastery as possible in her artifacts. As a support, most of Sucrose’s value lies on her Ascension 1 and 4 talents, hence leveling her other talents (Normal Attack, Skill, Burst) is not required.

Regarding Weapon Choices:

• Thrilling Tales of Dragon Slayers: This weapon does not provide any EM, however it overtakes the other weapons on the list when it comes to buffing your team. It offers 48% ATK boost to the character you swap to which is equivalent to 1 main stat. This buffs your DPS more compared to Sacrificial Fragments which gives ~44EM, equivalent to only 2 substats.
• Hakushin Ring: Hakushin Ring is a good option for teams where Sucrose can swirl Electro to trigger its damage-boosting passive. In Electro-Charged teams, she can buff Hydro DMG% as well.
• Favonius Codex: This weapon can be useful if you value the extra energy generation from the passive. You may need to get a few crit rate substats to trigger the passive reliably.

There are some team compositions in which Sucrose’s Elemental Mastery is not a priority, such as Freeze teams or an Anemo battery for Xiao. In such situations it’s better for Sucrose to use Thrilling Tales of the Dragon Slayers.
