Base Stats

Rosaria is a 4-star Cryo character that wields a Polearm in Genshin Impact. Her gameplay centers on being a quick-swap sub-DPS or support who excels at applying Cryo off-field. Rosaria deals swift burst damage and boosts the team's CRIT Rate, making her valuable in Freeze and Physical damage teams alike.

Rosaria's Tier & Rating

In battle, Rosaria is the Off-Field Sub-DPS that applies Cryo to proc reactions with the DPS. Her Elemental Skill allows her to get close to enemies and her Elemental Burst is her source of Off-Field application. Rosaria is able to boost her teammates' CRIT Rate up to 15%, making her a great Support as well.

Roles & Playstyle Of Rosaria and Her Strengths and Weaknesses

Flexible Off-Field Cryo Sub-DPS

Rosaria's most popular role in a majority of her teams is centered around her Elemental Burst applying Off-Field Cryo to facilitate specific reactions. Equipping her with specific Artifact sets, such as Noblesse Oblige, allows her value as a teammate to increase since she'll now contribute meaningful buffs alongside her application.

Pros and Cons of Sub-DPS Rosaria

Best Build for Rosaria

Stat Goals For Off-Field Cryo Sub-DPS Rosaria

As established, Rosaria needs to be supplied with a generous amount of Energy Recharge for her to fully realize her ideal role as an Off-Field Sub-DPS that is heavily reliant on her Elemental Burst. Having another Cryo teammate is highly recommended not just for the Energy share and Cryo Resonance, but also because having two sources of Cryo application allows the On-Field Pyro DPS to reliably trigger the Melt reaction more often.

Best Weapon for Rosaria

Rosaria benefits greatly from polearms that can help with her Energy requirements, but CRIT Rate stat-sticks can be usable when you have a lot of ER on her Artifacts. See below for the recommendations:

Premium Weapons for Off-Field Cryo Sub-DPS Rosaria

	Weapon	How to Get Rating
Best	Favonius Lance	Get from Banners - Rosaria's best weapon both for herself and her teammates. - Energy Recharge secondary stat allows her to reach her Energy requirements easily. - Passive generates clear Energy particles that restore a fixed amount of Energy to whoever catches the particles. These can be absorbed by other teammates if they need to do so. - Requires Rosaria to build CRIT Rate to trigger the Passive consistently. - Best at R5.
2nd	Engulfing Lightning	Get from Limited Banner - Provides a lot of Energy Recharge from the secondary stat and passive. - Passive is also more oriented towards the equipping character's personal damage, which not be something you've invested in when it comes to Rosaria. - Less value overall compared to Favonius Lance since Rosaria will not typically contribute a lot to the team DPS regardless.
3rd	Skyward Spine	Get from Weapon Banners - Energy Recharge secondary stat makes it easier for Rosaria to meet her Energy requirements. - Less ER than Engulfing Lightning, hence slightly lower in the ranking, but they should have similar results in practice. - Passive gives a bit of CRIT Rate which can help provide the maximum 15% teamwide CRIT Rate buff. - Damage part of the passive is nice but since Off-Field Rosaria doesn't normally have time to do Normal or Charged Attacks in her rotation, it doesn't see much use overall.
4th	Staff of the Scarlet Sands Lumidouce Elegy	Get from Limited Banner - CRIT Rate secondary stat polearms lets Rosaria max out her teamwide CRIT Rate buff. - Most of this weapons' passives aren't very utility-based in comparison to Favonius Lance, and instead lean into the equipping character's personal damage. - Viable choices when you're able to meet Rosaria's ER requirements through her Artifacts alone.

Favonius Lance is Rosaria's best option despite being a 4-star weapon due to the passive being incredibly useful for the entire party, and not just herself. It's especially good for content where you won't start with fully-energized Elemental Bursts, such as the Stygian Onslaught gamemode.

Free To Play Friendly (F2P Weapons) for Off-Field Cryo Support Rosaria

	Weapon	How to Get Rating
Best F2P	The Catch	Get From Fishing - Energy Recharge secondary stat lets Rosaria hit her desired Energy Recharge level much easier. - Passive also provides her Elemental Burst CRIT Rate and more damage, which is a nice bonus but not extremely impactful overall. - Best at R5.
2nd	Prototype Starglitter	Liyue Forgeable (Craftable) Weapon - Has the same Energy Recharge secondary stat value as The Catch, thereby also having the same benefits of Rosaria reaching her ER requirements easily. - Passive is inconsequential in teams where she won't be On-Field (which are a large majority of them).

For Free-to-Play options, The Catch is a standout mention due to the Energy Recharge statline and the universal passive that lets her Burst do more damage directly. It's biggest downside is involved in the weapon's acquisition, which requires you to catch or fish specific fish in select areas on the map, with some having scarce spawn rates. This can get bothersome to do since the weapon is best used at max refinement, but because a lot of Support Polearm users can make use of it, it should still be worth the effort regardless.

Rosaria Best Artifacts

Rosaria's Artifact choices have a number of options depending on whether you want her to have more utility or more damage. See the recommendations below:

Artifact	Recommendation Details
Noblesse Oblige	★★★★★ - The typical choice for Rosaria in a lot of her teams due to the ATK% buff she can enable after using her Elemental Burst. - 2-piece effect also boosts Burst damage, which helps to slightly increase her personal damage.
Scroll of the Hero of Cinder City	★★★★・ - Despite not having a Nightsoul Burst, Rosaria can still equip this set to provide a 12% DMG buff when she triggers an Elemental reaction. - Good for DPSes that don't care about ATK, such as DPSes that scale with HP instead. - When you have a Natlan character in your party, the 2-piece effect will give Rosaria a set amount of Energy.
Instructor	★★★★・ - When a different Off-Field Support is already equipped with Noblesse, Instructor can be a good alternative for On-Field DPSes that appreciate it, such as a Pyro DPS for triggering Melt. - Relatively harder to farm for since there's no dedicated domain for it.
Emblem of Severed Fate	★★★・・ - The 2-piece effect gives Energy Recharge%, which greatly helps ease her Energy requirements. - Allows her Burst to deal some damage due to the ER to DMG conversion.
2-pc. Energy Recharge 2-pc. Burst DMG	★★・・・ - While you're farming for a decent 4-piece set, you can make use of a combination of 2 sets whose 2-piece effects is something Rosaria can use. - You can also use any combination between the 2-piece versions of: ・Blizzard Strayer (2-pc. Cryo DMG) ・Gladiator's Finale (2-pc. ATK) ・Shimenawa's Reminiscence (2-pc. ATK)

Recommended Artifact Stats

	Main: Flat HP Sub: Energy Recharge / CRIT Rate or DMG / ATK%

	Main: Cryo DMG Bonus Sub:Energy Recharge / CRIT Rate or DMG / ATK%
	Main: CRIT Rate Sub: Energy Recharge / CRIT DMG / ATK%

Reach Her Desired Energy Recharge Level First

As stated, Rosaria is likely to perform at her best once she has enough Energy Recharge to use her Elemental Burst every rotation. Once you've met her Energy means, you can move on to building CRIT Rate to be able to get value out of her teamwide CRIT Rate buff and to trigger the Favonius Lance's passive if you have it equipped on her.

Best Team Comp Rosaria

Dual Cryo Mavuika Melt Team

Sub-DPS	DPS	Support	Support
Rosaria	Mavuika	Citlali	Bennett
Details
- Rosaria can work as a second Cryo applicator for Mavuika alongside Citlali to increase the likelihood of Mavuika triggering more Melts. - Mavuika is currently the strongest overall On-Field DPS as of the current version of the game and can easily breeze through content with the right team and setup. - Citlali provides numerous other buffs alongside her Cryo application, and both she and Rosaria feed off of each other's Cryo particle generation as well. - Bennett activates Pyro Resonance, provides a generous ATK% buff and acts as the primary sustain for the team.

Rosaria can replace Xilonen in Mavuika's best Melt team composition, and with relatively good results to show for it too. Since the Citlali-Mavuika core is by itself very strong, adding an additional Cryo applicator can make it so that there'll at least always be a Cryo aura on the enemy for Mavuika to trigger Melt on.

Other Team Comps For Rosaria

Skirk Freeze Team

Team		Detail
Rosaria	Skirk	- Rosaria can fill the fourth slot of Skirk's premium Freeze team core alongside Escoffier and Furina. - Rosaria benefits from Escoffier's Cryo RES shred just as well. - Escoffier and Rosaria can generate particles for each other, which helps both easily use their Elemental Bursts.
Furina	Escoffier

F2P Friendly Team Comp

Team		Detail
Rosaria	Kaeya	- A F2P-friendly team comp using free or easily obtainable characters. - Rosaria and Kaeya apply a substantial amount of Cryo so Xiangling can trigger Melt with her Elemental Burst. - Bennett and Xiangling are a strong F2P duo that can deal enough DPS to clear mid-range endgame content like the Spiral Abyss
Xiangling	Bennett

Team Rotation of Rosaria and Combos

Basic Team Rotation for Off-Field Support Rosaria

Rosaria will usually not take up much field time in her optimal role as an Off-Field Cryo applicator or support. Using her Elemental Skill triggers the passive that gives her extra CRIT Rate, provided the enemy is small in size. Furthermore, it's best to pair her alongside another Cryo support to help cover for her short Burst duration.

Basics Of Using Rosaria

Rosaria is an Off-Field Cryo Sub-DPS whose primary use-case is to apply Cryo to enemies using her Elemental Burst. The area-of-effect (AoE) or range of her Burst is passable for this purpose, but because it's stationary, it may be harder to use against extremely mobile targets.

Elemental Skill Teleports Her Behind an Enemy

Rosaria's Skill, upon activation, causes her to appear behind a nearby target, dealing Cryo DMG at the same time. If the enemy is too large, Rosaria simply teleports in-front of them. Similarly, the Skill functions like a short dash when out of combat, thrusting Rosaria forward in the direction she's facing.

Elemental Burst Applies Cryo At an Interval

After a brief animation, Rosaria's Burst creates an Ice Lance that deals Cryo DMG on the initial hit, and will then periodically apply the element to enemies within a small AoE. Her application rate is decent enough for her to be an Off-Field Cryo source for an On-Field Pyro or Hydro DPS to trigger certain strong reactions with, such as Melt and Freeze.

Prioritize Her Energy Recharge

Because her most important ability is her Elemental Burst, Rosaria would need a fair amount of Energy Recharge (ER) to be able to use it on demand, especially since the duration of the Ice Lance isn't very long. You'll want to ensure she has enough of this stat to be able to use it every rotation before moving to other offensive stats such as CRIT Rate and DMG.

Passive Increases Party Members' CRIT Rate

One of Rosaria's Ascension Passives supplies her teammates with a modest CRIT Rate increase based off of her own CRIT Rate, but this effect cannot apply to herself. This buff has a max limit of 15% CRIT Rate, which is achieved when Rosaria has a total of 100% CRIT Rate after accounting all bonuses from outside sources such as Cryo Resonance and her other passive.

First Ascension Passive Increases Her Own CRIT Rate

Rosaria's other passive, Regina Probationum, boosts her CRIT Rate by 12% after her Elemental Skill lands a critical hit on an enemy from behind. This is one of the many reasons why Rosaria will want to open her combo with her Elemental Skill.

How To Use Rosaria's Skills & Passives

Sub-DPS With Off-Field Cryo Application

Rosaria's basic combo is similar to a lot of Off-Field supports who use their Skill first, followed by their Burst. Doing it this way allows her to catch the Energy particles created by her Skill, as well as trigger one of her Ascension Passives that boosts her personal CRIT Rate.

Elemental Skill Blinks Her Behind Enemies

Icon	Elemental Skill Summary
Ravaging Confession	- Rosaria dashes behind her target and strikes with her polearm, dealing Cryo DMG. - Cannot be used to move behind large enemies.

Rosaria's Skill quickly teleports or blinks her behind a nearby enemy upon activation, dealing damage as soon as she arrives. This Skill generates a good amount of Energy particles, but because of the long cooldown, it's usually more feasible to use it only once within her combo. Equipping her Favonius Lance increases the overall Energy the Skill provides, which enables Rosaria to become a decent battery or energy generator for a Cryo character that relies on their Burst, apart from herself.

Elemental Burst Applies Cryo in a Small Area

Icon	Elemental Burst Summary
Rites of Termination	- Rosaria slashes nearby enemies, then summons an Ice Lance that deals Cryo DMG on impact. - The Ice Lance periodically emits cold air, dealing Cryo DMG to nearby opponents while active. - AoE of the Burst isn't too large but it isn't completely small either.

Her Elemental Burst is what allows Rosaria to function as an Off-Field Sub-DPS due to its Cryo application and damage potential, and it's arguably her most important ability across multiple team variations. The Ice Lance that the Burst creates Rosaria naturally gravitates to wanting a lot of Energy Recharge to be able to use her Burst on demand every rotation, so it's best to keep that in mind while grinding for her best Artifact pieces.

Crit Buffs From Her Passives

Icon	Passive Summaries
Regina Probationum	When Rosaria strikes an opponent from behind using Ravaging Confession (Skill), Rosaria's CRIT Rate increases by 12% for 5s.
Shadow Samaritan	Casting Rites of Termination (Burst) increases CRIT Rate of all nearby party members (except Rosaria herself) by 15% of Rosaria's CRIT Rate for 10s.

Rosaria's Ascension Passives work together in such a way that the CRIT Rate boost she gets from hitting a critical on an enemy from behind is counted towards her other passive, which grants everyone else in the party CRIT Rate. Because of this, instead of needing 100% CRIT Rate to max out the passive, Rosaria only needs to have a total of 88% CRIT Rate without Cryo Resonance to max out the teamwide buff, and only 73% with the Resonance effect active.

Should You Pull for Rosaria's Constellation Or Best Weapon?

Constellations are Good But Not Necessary

C2 is a Good Stopping Point

Most of the time, Rosaria at her baseline (C0) will be enough to cover her intended roles, but getting constellation levels on her are still an upgrade in the end. Her notable milestones would be C2 that increases the duration of her Burst, which is the bulk of her Cryo application, C4 that allows her to gain Energy from a Crit hit and C6 which will be nice to have in Physical teams for the additional Physical shred.

Overall, her constellations offers some slight improvements and add-ons, yet most of what Rosaria wants to achieve in a team is already doable at C0. There isn't a strict incentive to chase after them, but any increase to her constellation levels will be a welcome addition regardless.

Who Is Rosaria?

A Sister Of The Church Of Favonius

Rosaria is the infamous truant of a sister of the Church of Favonius. While some embodies piousness, she strays away from it. She smokes and drinks as she pleases much to the dismay of the other members of the church.

Protects Mondstadt In The Dark

When nighttime falls, Rosaria takes it upon herself to work. Not for the church, but for Mondstadt. She investigates suspicious individuals and if needed, gets rid of them all for the sake of keeping the peace in Mondstadt.

Rescued By Varka

As a young child, Rosaria was taken in by the very same bandit gang that slaughtered her family. Forced to work with them, she and the gang were eventually caught by the Knights of Favonius. Instead of executing her like the rest, Varka deemed her capable of repentance and placed her in the Church of Favonius.
