Last updated: 2026-08-02

Player notes

SP Safiyyah is a Legendary Watcher tagged with Iria. In practical terms they cover healing, Act Again, and battery / buff enable. SP upgrade path for Safiyyah with improved utility and combat spells for Iria lineups.

Invest if you already built base Safiyyah; otherwise evaluate banner value first.

In the role triangle, lean on free damage into Destroyers. Stars and gear still matter more than matchup alone on hard maps.

Star plan on this page (“Medium”) is a budgeting hint: finish the first power spike that stabilizes clears, then reassess against your enabler and main carry before dumping every shard here.

Gear deep dive

  • Weapon — Staff of Iria: Classic Iria support staff for heal/buff Watchers. Prefer it when pure heal/buff Watchers prioritizing uptime over personal damage.
  • Trinket — Life Fondness: Support staple for healers and hybrid supports. Best when default healer/hybrid sustain trinket before Great Company.
  • Tarot — The Empress: Support tarot for classic heal/buff kits. Take it for pure heal/buff supports prioritizing ally care.

Team plan

Build the party around SP Safiyyah as the enabler: one primary DPS (Seeker/Breaker/Destroyer), one frontline Defender, then flex for matchups or faction auras (Iria). Feed Act Again and NRG into the carry first.

  • Open with SP Utility when the board allows a clean cast.
  • Keep reaction (SP Ward) online—do not strip it for vanity actives mid-fight.
  • Basic attack (SP Bolt) is for reposition turns or when NRG is dry.
  • Spend the first enable on your invested carry, not a half-built flex unit.
