In Genshin Impact, what are Rosaria's best builds? Rosaria arrived in Genshin Impact with the latest rerun of the Childe banner. A member of the Church of Favonius and a four-star Cryo user, she's been a popular hit with the player base. Now that players are finally getting to playtest her, some powerful new builds have come to light. Let's take a look at some of the most potent.

Genshin Impact Rosaria Best Builds

Rosaria is able to serve two roles on your team. She can serve as the main DPS character, or she can provide elemental support and sub DPS through her Cryo abilities. Depending on what you want from her, the artifacts and weapons she should use will vary.

Support

At this point, many active players have likely decided which main DPS character to structure their team around. Thus, it's imperative Rosaria gets weapons and artifacts that can make use of the follow-up aspects of her elemental abilities. Some good examples of weapons include the Favonius Lance which is fairly easy to get. It allows her to quickly recharge her elemental burst, meaning she can be subbed in to cause elemental reactions more often.

A good artifact for this build would be the Noblesse Oblige set, which increases the character's elemental burst damage and gives the rest of the party a 20% boost in attack damage. Getting the first bonus from the Blizzard Strayer set is another good option, as it increases Cryo damage, and combined with the first effect of the Noblesse Oblige set, it can stack effectively.

DPS

Now, should you be lacking a character you love as your main DPS, Rosaria might fill that hole. Obviously, she won't be as strong as some five stars, but she can be pretty high up there among the four stars for DPS. There's a wealth of weapon options available, and the Dragonspine spear, which players can get for free after completing its quest, is a great option. Rosaria is the Cryo user to take advantage of this, as it allows her to deal some pretty impressive elemental burst damage. Crescent Pike is a good way to gain damage boosts after using her elemental burst. For players with a Hydro or Pyro support character, the damage boost against Hydro or Pyro-affected enemies from the Dragon's Bane spear will help.

As for artifacts, the classic Bloodstained Chivalry sets and Gladiator's Finale do pretty well. Of the two, Gladiator's Finale is probably the strongest, as it'll take advantage of her status as a polearm wielder. Naturally, using both at once to get each of their first bonuses is a fine idea as well.
