Rosaria guide in Genshin Impact: best builds

Contents

In Genshin Impact Rosaria is a 4-star Crio character using a spear in combat. In a squad, she can act as a primary or secondary damage dealer with a bias in support. If you are interested in information about her best builds, weapons and artifacts, as well as optimal teams with her, then check out our guide.

Features and abilities of the Rosary

This fighting sister of the Favonia church is a versatile fighter. She excels at fighting large groups of mobs, can support her team with powerful elemental reactions, and makes it easier to explore the world. All thanks to its following advantages:

Elemental skill and Elemental Burst are extremely useful in battles with ordinary opponents.
Rosaria's active and passive skills provide the team with constant Cryo damage and increase the chance of critical damage.
Passive ability increases the movement speed of the squad at night.

If we talk about the shortcomings of this heroine, then they can only be attributed to the impossibility of using elemental skills on large enemies and bosses.

How to play Rosary

Attack enemies from behind

If you want to inflict maximum damage on the enemy, then try to use Rosaria's elemental skill called "Ravaging Confession" more often. The fact is that in this case, the sister teleports behind the back of the enemy and inflicts Cryo damage on him. In addition, if she has the Regina Probationum passive, she will have a 12% increased critical strike chance (lasts 5 seconds).

However, keep in mind that you won't be able to move behind larger enemies like Ruin Guardians, so you'll have to get behind them yourself before using the ability to trigger the passive.

Elemental Burst is ideal for creating deadly reactions

When using Rite of Demise, Rosaria swings her ice spear in a circular motion, then plunges it into the ground, dealing Cryo damage to nearby enemies over an area of effect for a period of time.

After unlocking the Shadow Samaritan passive, casting an elemental blast will also increase the critical strike chance of all party members except for Rosaria herself (lasts 10 seconds). Therefore, this ability is ideal for a secondary damage dealer.

For example, you can perform Rites of Termination with a Rosary and then quickly switch to Diluk or Keqing to create dangerous elemental reactions like Melt and Super Conduit. Plus, they will be able to crit more often.

Great for nighttime exploration of the world

When Rosaria is in your group, you will be able to move faster at night (18:00 - 6:00) - all thanks to her passive skill "Night Walk". This will noticeably speed up the exploration of new territories or the completion of quests in which you need to run a lot on land.

Constellations (talents) Rosaries

To open them, the character's Serendipity is required, which can be obtained by dropping copies of the hero as part of prayers. Given the random nature of this process, it will not be easy to open all the constellations. However, while the corresponding banners are active, the probability of success increases significantly.

Unholy Revelation - After a critical strike, your normal attack damage and attack speed are increased by 10% for 4 seconds.
Land Without Promise – Increases the duration of Elemental Blast Ice Lance by 4 seconds.
The Wages of Sin - The level of "Executive Confession" increases by three.
Painful Grace - Critical hits made while under the effect of Executing Confession allow you to restore 5 units of energy. The effect manifests no more than once during the duration of the elemental skill.
Last Rites - Rite of the End increases its level by three.
Divine Retribution – Elemental blast hits reduce enemies' physical resistance by 20 percent for 10 seconds.

The best builds for the Rosary

Basic DPS (Physical Damage)

This build focuses on the heroine's ability to perform fast and powerful physical attacks. Its effectiveness is greatly increased by unlocking the 6th constellation or teaming up with an Electro character to create a "Super Conductor". As a weapon, we advise you to take:

Staff of Homa (5-Star) - Increases health by 20 percent and increases attack bonus by 0.8 percent of maximum HP. If the life bar falls below half, then the attack is additionally increased by 1 percent.
Primordial Jade Winged-Spear (5-Star) - Hitting enemies increases Attack Rating by 3.2% for 6 seconds. The effect stacks up to seven times and occurs every 0.3 seconds.
Dragonspine Spear (4-star) - Has a 60% chance to create an ice Elemental Reaction: Crystallize over an enemy on a normal or charged strike that falls down and deals 80% of attack power in an area of effect. If mobs have About Cryo, then they take 200 percent damage. The effect occurs every 10 seconds. Can be obtained by doing Quest "The Festering Fang".
Crescent Pike (4-star) – Pickups of elemental particles and orbs increase damage from normal and charged hits by 20 percent for 5 seconds.

Bloodstained Chivalry: 2 items - Increase physical damage by 25%.
Noblesse Oblige: 2 items - Increase elemental explosion damage by 20%. Can be obtained from the Clear Pool and Mountain Cavern dungeon.

Minor Cryo DPS

As we noted above, Rosaria's Elemental Burst allows her to create powerful elemental reactions and increase the chance of inflicting critical hits on the rest of the squad members. Therefore, this build is aimed at strengthening her elemental skills and using them more often. As a spear it is worth taking:

Skyward Spine (5-Star) - Increases critical strike chance by 8% and standard strike speed by 12%. Has a 50% chance to hit enemies with an intangible blade on normal and charged hits. The effect occurs every 2 seconds.
Staff of Homa (5-Star) - Increases health by 20 percent and increases attack bonus by 0.8 percent of maximum HP. If the life bar falls below half, then the attack is additionally increased by 1 percent.
Prototype: Starlight (4-Star) - Casting an elemental skill increases damage from normal and charged hits by 8% for 12 seconds. The effect stacks up to two times. This weapon can be crafted.
Spear of Favonius (4-Star) – Critical hits have a 60% chance to generate elemental particles that generate 6 energy. The effect occurs every 12 seconds.
Deathmatch (4-star) - When two or more enemies are nearby, the hero's defense and attack are increased by 16 percent. If the battle is with only one enemy, then the attack power increases by 24 percent.

If we talk about a set of artifacts, then we advise you to take the following two incomplete sets:

Noblesse Oblige: 2 items - Increase elemental explosion damage by 20%.
Blizzard Strayer: 2 items - Increase Cryo damage by 15%. Can be found in the dungeon "Peak of Vindagnyr".

You can also try using the full set of Ceremony of the Ancient Nobles, which in addition to the above increases the Attack Rating of all team members by 20% when using an Elemental Burst.
