Mona Best Weapon
Burst DPS Build
Weapon | Details | |
---|---|---|
Best | ![]() | ATK 33.1% (Lvl. 90) - Elemental Damage Bonus will benefit all of Mona's attacks - Better because of non-conditional Elemental DMG Bonus |
2nd | ![]() | CRIT Rate 33.1% (Lvl. 90) - High Crit Rate sub-stat makes building CR/CD easy - Requires Mona to stay on the field, not that good for a Burst DPS build, but will work as a stat stick |
3rd | ![]() | ATK 27.6% (Lvl. 90) - Provides both ER and ATK increase to Mona |
4th | ![]() | Energy Recharge 45.9% (Lvl. 90) - Both ER sub-stat and weapon skill will help Mona to have a good Burst uptime |
5th | ![]() | HP 35.2% (Lvl. 90) - HP Sub-stat will not benefit Mona - Main use is its weapon skill wherein it increases the ATK of the character you switch to when you switch off Mona |
6th (F2P) | ![]() | Energy Recharge 30.6% (Lvl. 90) - Free to Play option - Best with an Electro-charge team, but can work with any other team comp as a stat stick weapon |
Either Go For ER or CR/CD
The goal is to have Mona's Burst available as much as possible so having an Energy Recharge is good for Mona. She also converts ER to Hydro DMG. If you have any CR/CD weapons available, that would also work seeing as Mona's Burst does Crit!
Hydro Main DPS Build
Weapon | Details | |
---|---|---|
Best | ![]() | CRIT Rate 33.1% (Lvl. 90) - High Crit Rate sub-stat makes building CR/CD easy - Mona as main DPS will be able to take advantage of the Elemental DMG conditional weapon skill |
2nd | ![]() | ATK 33.1% (Lvl. 90) - Elemental Damage Bonus will benefit all of Mona's attacks |
3rd | ![]() | CRIT DMG 55.1% (Lvl. 90) - All of the weapon skill's random effect all benefits Mona - Crit DMG sub-stat will make building CR/CD easier |
3rd | ![]() | CRIT Rate 27.6% (Lvl. 90) - With Mona as main DPS, you can juggle between her Normal ATK, Skill, and Burst to increase the DMG between all of them |
4th | ![]() | ATK 27.6% (Lvl. 90) - ATK% sub-stat is good for increasing overall ATK |
5th (F2P) | ![]() | Elemental Mastery 110 (Lvl. 90) - Good for running an Elemental-focused team comp |

Build At Least 180% Energy Recharge
For a Burst DPS Build, you need to have at least 180% Energy Recharge in order to have a good Burst uptime. With the Emblem of Severed Fate set, you can even get an increase in your Burst DMG depending on the Energy Recharge.
Build CR/CD As Much As You Can
Mona's Burst crits so having a good CR/CD ratio is great for increasing her DPS. You can build around 50/100 CR/CD to ensure a good chunk of damage whenever she uses her Burst.

Uses Of Mona's Elemental Skill
Distract Enemies With Taunt

Mona's Elemental Skill is a taunt for enemies, meaning while it's active, they will turn their attention to it instead of you. It also periodically applies Hydro to enemies around it.
Move Backwards By Holding

Holding Mona's Elemental Skill displaces her to the back while leaving a phantom. It is a great move for doing a strategic setup & evasion.
Uses Of Mona's Elemental Burst
Set Up For High Damage

Mona's Elemental Burst doesn't necessarily do high damage by itself, but it is a great set-up for high-damage combos. This is due to the effect that it applies which increases damage taken by enemies affected by it.
Restricts Enemies

Besides the increased damage, Mona's Burst also restricts the movement of lightweight enemies. Note that heavy enemies will be unaffected by this, but they will still have the lingering effects of the Burst.
