What Kind Of Character Is Wriothesley?
Wriothesley Is A Main DPS That Deals Damage With Normal & Charged Attack
Wriothesley is a character from Fontaine that is a Main DPS and requires on-field time. Wriothesley deals damage mainly using a combo of boosted Normal Attacks and Charged Attack.
Reduces His Own HP For More DMG & Heals Them Back
Wriothesley can reduce his own HP and boost his attacks using Elemental Skill and get them all back after performing combos. This makes him an excellent user of Marechaussee Hunter Set. Wriothesley also has a passive that increases his ATK when his HP increases or decreases.
Strengths & Weakness Of Wriothesley
| Strengths |
|---|
| - Amazing Cryo DMG from Normal Attacks and Elemental Skill ↳ Does not need Energy Recharge for damage. - Normal Attack combos does not break even after sprinting. - Flexible team comps and can be used at Melt and Freeze teams. - With proper use, he is able to self-sustain himself. |
| Weakness |
| - HP range requirement of Wriothesley's passive and skills can make it difficult to use all parts of his kit at C0. ↳ With a healer, Special Charged Attack may not activate but it is too dangerous to use Wriothesley without a healer. ↳ C1 can help alleviate this issue. - Low resistance to interruption without a shielder. |

Wriothesley Best Weapon
Wriothesley Works Best With CRIT, ATK, or Damage Boosting Weapons
| Weapon | Details | |
|---|---|---|
| Best | Cashflow Supervision | CRIT Rate 22.1% (Lvl. 90) - Signature weapon of Wriothesley. - Boost ATK, Normal Attack and Charged ATK DMG. - Requires HP drain and gain making it work with Wriothesley. - Also boost ATK Speed. |
| 1st | Tulaytullah's Remembrance | CRIT DMG 44.1% (Lvl. 90) - Great for boosting the DMG of Normal ATK and ATK Speed of Wriothesley. - Sub-Stat is also amazing for building since CRIT DMG sub-stat is important. |
| 2nd | Lost Prayer To The Sacred Winds | CRIT Rate 33.1% (Lvl. 90) - CRIT Rate Sub-Stat together with the artifact, Marechausse Hunter, allows you to no longer invest on CRIT Rate. - Movement Speed buff and Elemental DMG Bonus is great for DPS increase. - Buffs needs to long time on-field to maximize. |
| 3rd | Skyward Atlas | ATK 33.1% (Lvl. 90) - Amazing ATK Buff for Wriothesley boosting his damage by alot. - Elemental DMG Buff is also great for additional damage. - Since Wriothesley has a lot of outside sources for CRIT Rate, building should not be very difficult. |
| 4th | The Widsith | CRIT DMG 55.1% (Lvl. 90) - Wriothesley can use any effect of The Widsith. - CRIT DMG Sub-stat is also great for boosting DMG since CRIT Rate can be covered by Cryo Resonance and Marechaussee Hunter. - The effect has a long cooldown and not good for long battles. |
| 5th | Blackcliff Agate | CRIT DMG 55.1% (Lvl. 90) - Amazing CRIT DMG sub-stat - Situational is passive and does not do well on bosses or single target. |
| 6th (F2P) | Ballad Of The Boundless Blue | Energy Recharge 30.6% (Lvl. 90) - Increases Normal and Charged Attack DMG which is the main source of DMG for Wriothesley. - Energy Recharge is good for high up-time of Elemental Burst. |
| 7th (F2P) | Dodoco Tales | ATK 55.1% (Lvl. 90) - Weapon should work well with the rotation of Wriothesley. - Boost ATK and Charged ATK but does not help much with Normal Attack. |
Wriothesley scales well with ATK and DMG Boost Weapons. For CRIT Weapons, Damage is preferred since Cryo Resonance and Artifact Effects can provide tons of CRIT Rate.

C1 Or C2 Is Recommended
Wriothesley becomes significantly stronger at C1, which makes it easier to use Charged Attacks, and with C2, it greatly enhances his Burst. C1 if especially recommended because it enables the fifth attack during his Elemental Skill to activate a Charged Attack, which improves damage and self-healing. If you can afford it, aim for a further increase in firepower at C2.
