Overview
Sara's skill and burst summon Tengu Juurai that buff nearby allies' ATK based on Sara's ATK. Her skill targets one ally; burst targets the active character. In Raiden teams she quickswaps in to buff before Raiden's burst. Build ATK% and ER-she rarely stays on-field.
How to Play
Cast skill on your Main DPS (or use burst for AoE buff), then immediately swap to the buffed character. Sara does not need to stay on-field-her value is the ATK buff window. Aim skill at the ground near your DPS for reliable Tengu Juurai connection. At C6, her burst buffs all nearby allies.
Optimal Rotation
Bennett Burst → Kazuha Skill/Burst → Sara Skill (on Raiden) → Sara Burst → Raiden Burst → Raiden Skill → Raiden NA combo. Refresh Sara buff before Raiden's on-field window ends. In Aggravate: Nahida Skill → Fischl Skill → Sara Skill/Burst → swap to Electro DPS.
F2P Options
Fading Twilight or Mouun's Moon are solid F2P bows. Emblem 4pc is farmable. C0 Sara fully enables Raiden Hypercarry-C6 is a luxury upgrade. Sara is often available on event banners.
Common Mistakes
Missing skill shot on ally-Tengu Juurai must connect for ATK buff. Staying on-field with Sara-she's a quickswap buffer. Building CRIT over ATK%-buff scales with her ATK stat. Using Sara without Electro DPS to buff-her ATK buff shines on Raiden, Keqing, or Cyno.
