Weapon's effect

CRIT Rate increased by 4% (5%, 6%, 7%, 8%). Gains Skypiercing Might upon using an Elemental Burst: Increases Movement SPD by 10%, increases ATK SPD by 10%, and Normal and Charged hits deal additional DMG equal to 20% (25%, 30%, 35%, 40%) of ATK. Skypiercing Might lasts for 12s.

Best for characters

Skyward Blade is a highly versatile weapon, serving as a solid option for many Sword characters.

Its passive effect provides a valuable Energy Recharge. This makes it great choice for Bennett or Jean.

Honestly, while it might not be a best-in-slot for many top-tier DPS characters, its balanced stats (good Base ATK and a substantial Energy Recharge sub-stat) make it a strong utility option for various Sword support or Sub-DPS characters.

How to obtain?

From Standard Banner

The Skyward Blade can be obtained from the Standard Banner (Wanderlust Invocation) by spending your Acquaint Fate.  You’re guaranteed one of the featured 5★ weapon or character within 90 pulls and a 4★ within 10. The banner is permanent, meaning you can try your luck whenever you like.
