Mona Best Weapon
Burst DPS Build
Weapon | Details | |
---|---|---|
Best | Skyward Atlas | ATK 33.1% (Lvl. 90) - Elemental Damage Bonus will benefit all of Mona's attacks - Better because of non-conditional Elemental DMG Bonus |
2nd | Lost Prayer To The Sacred Winds | 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 | Oathsworn Eye | ATK 27.6% (Lvl. 90) - Provides both ER and ATK increase to Mona |
4th | Favonius Codex | Energy Recharge 45.9% (Lvl. 90) - Both ER sub-stat and weapon skill will help Mona to have a good Burst uptime |
5th | Thrilling Tales Of Dragon Slayers | 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) | Hakushin Ring | 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 | Lost Prayer To The Sacred Winds | 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 | Skyward Atlas | ATK 33.1% (Lvl. 90) - Elemental Damage Bonus will benefit all of Mona's attacks |
3rd | The Widsith | 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 | Solar Pearl | 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 | Oathsworn Eye | ATK 27.6% (Lvl. 90) - ATK% sub-stat is good for increasing overall ATK |
5th (F2P) | Mappa Mare | Elemental Mastery 110 (Lvl. 90) - Good for running an Elemental-focused team comp |

Mona Skill Guide & How To Use Mona
Recommended Rotation For Mona
Recommended Mona Rotation | |
---|---|
1 | Use Elemental Skill to build energy |
2 | When Burst becomes available, make sure that your main DMG-dealing attack from another character is available |
3 | Use Mona's Burst as set-up for big damage |
4 | Switch to your main damage dealer and use their attack to trigger Mona's Burst's aftereffect |
5 | Repeat Step 1 |
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.

No Cons Or C1 Is Recommended
Since it's hard to acquire cons for Mona and that she's already highly viable without it, having her at C0 si okay. If you can, get her to C1 since the increase in Hydro damage is great especially when running her in Vaporize or Electro-charged comps.
