Genshin Impact: Rosaria guide — Weapons, artifacts, and talents

Rosaria’s talent priorities and constellations

Again, Rosaria’s role in your Genshin Impact team will determine which talents you’ll focus on. Likewise, her constellations can prove to be a game-changer on how you utilize her.

• Normal Attack: Spear of the Church – Prioritize this if you’re going for a physical DPS build.
• Ravaging Confession (skill) – I haven’t really leveled this up too much. It’s mostly used to teleport behind smaller and medium-sized opponents, but, that’s often followed by physical stabs with her weapon anyway.
• Rites of Termination (burst) – Prioritize this if you want a support role or more emphasis on her Cryo output. Rosaria’s burst makes her swing her weapon to hit nearby enemies, then it spawns a large ice lance. The ice lance pulses three times within four seconds, dealing AoE Cryo damage each time.

Note 1: Regina Probationum – This passive talent increases Rosaria’s crit rate by 12% for five seconds when she backstabs an opponent after using Ravaging Confession (skill). It’s a decent boost for those who wish to use her as a main or sub-DPS character.

Note 2: Shadow Samaritan – This passive talent, meanwhile, increases the crit rate of all other party members except Rosaria after she casts Rites of Termination (burst). This is what makes her viable in a supporting role since you’ll pop her burst, then swap to the character that’ll actually take out opponents.

Note 3: Be reminded that Rosaria uses Ballad booklets and Fatui insignias as her talent leveling materials.

Constellations

Although I wanted to get all or most of Rosaria’s constellations, I held off on doing more wishes. That’s because Fischl and Barbara are both part of this current banner. Since I have them at C6 (max constellations) already, I would waste my fates/primogems if I got them as duplicates once more.

Still, if you’re up for it, you can try getting duplicates of Rosaria for the following:

• Unholy Revelation (C1) – +10% attack speed and +10% normal attack damage when you land a critical hit. This is actually a major improvement already.
• Land Without Promise (C2) – The ice lance spawned by Rosaria’s burst lasts an extra four seconds (that’s three additional AoE pulses). Again, this is a decent boon.
• The Wages of Sin (C3) – +3 levels for your elemental skill; maximum level is 15.
• Painful Grace (C4) – Gain +5 energy when you land critical hits with your elemental skill. This is helpful if you want to get your burst/ult faster.
• Last Rites (C5) – +3 levels for your elemental burst; maximum level is 15.
• Divine Retribution (C6) – Your elemental burst’s attack (the initial weapon swing) decreases the physical resistance of opponents by 20% for 10 seconds. This is actually pretty good due to the resistance debuff it applies to multiple foes. It’s viable for both a physical DPS Rosaria, or a Rosaria that’s there to support physical-heavy characters like Xiangling, Razor, or Keqing.
