Optimal Sandy Build

Sandy's attack consists of piercing sand bullets, covering a wide area but dealing minimal damage individually. His Sandstorm Super (lasting nine seconds) hides allies within its radius, making him invaluable for turning the tide of battle.

Equipment	Option
Gadget	Sweet Dreams
Star Power	Rude Star
Gear 1	Exhausting Storm
Gear 2	Damage

• Sweet Dreams (Gadget): This puts opponents to sleep for one second (interrupted by damage). Use it with full ammo, near allies, to coordinate a quick elimination. It's also effective defensively, buying you time to escape.

• Rude Star (Star Power): Increases Sandstorm's damage to enemies while concealing allies. Ideal when surrounded by both allies and enemies, allowing for a coordinated assault. Note: Rude Star's damage negates the Sweet Dreams stun.

• Exhausting Storm (Gear 1): Reduces damage dealt by enemies within the Sandstorm by 20 percent.

• Damage (Gear 2): Boosts Sandy's attack damage by 50 percent when his health falls below 50 percent.

Best Sandy Teammates

Sandy's fragility necessitates strong protective teammates. Here are some excellent choices:

• Jacky: Her ability to pull enemies close creates perfect Sandstorm setups.

• Surge: A high-damage dealer who compensates for Sandy's low damage output.

• Gene: Similar to Jacky, he can pull enemies into the Sandstorm's range.

Additional Tips

• Position your Sandstorm near bushes for easy escapes and ambush opportunities.

• Counter enemy Sandstorms with your own, using Rude Star's damage to reveal enemy positions.

Sandy's strength lies in teamwork. While powerful, his effectiveness hinges on coordination with allies to secure victory.
