Want the best Genshin Impact Rosaria build around? A sister of the Church of Favonius, Rosaria is extremely unorthodox for a nun, usually skipping her responsibilities since she finds them boring and instead turning to a life that has, since launch, seen the cast of the game square off against gods, monsters, and false idols.
However, while intimidating, she’s extremely dedicated and competent at investigating threats to Mondstadt and disrupting them. On the battlefield, however, she’s an excellent Sub Cryo DPS unit.

The best Genshin Impact Rosaria build (December 2022)
Role | Best Weapon | Alternative Weapon | Best Artifacts | Alternative Artifacts |
|---|---|---|---|---|
Cryo Sub-DPS Build | Dragonspine Spear | Deathmatch | Blizzard Strayer | Gladiator's Finale |
Physical DPS Build | Primordial Jade Winged-Spear | Prototype Starglitter | Pale Flame (4 Pieces) | Pale Flame (2 Pieces) and Bloodstained Chivalry (2 Pieces) |
Rosaria is a decent sub DPS with good damage output and great mobility in combat, but if you want to use her in a team with no other Cryo units, you'll need to buff her Energy Recharge stats.
As a great alternative, you can also build a physical DPS setup with more offensive power, which will shine after reaching C6.
Above are two of the best Rosaria builds right now. You can keep reading to find out the hows and whys of these particular Rosaria builds, but if you've used this character before, you'll quickly understand the thought process behind her best weapon and artifact choices.
Cryo Sub DPS
Dragonspine Spear is the best option in this build since the 200% Attack damage bonus against enemies affected by Cryo is just ridiculous.
There's no better option than this one, so it’s really recommended that you do the unlocking quest as soon as possible whenever it's available. However, the Deathmatch is suggested as a decent alternative in case you didn’t get the former yet.
Both the two-piece bonuses of the Noblesse Oblige and Blizzard Strayer sets will help a lot in the context of this setup, but if you feel inclined to use a complete set of one, the four-piece skills are equally useful.
Physical DPS
Both the Primordial Jade Winged-Spear and the Staff of Homa bring boosts on Attack that are really useful, and the Prototype Starglitter is just a good alternative in case you didn’t get any of the other two yet.
With great bonuses to Physical damage, the 2-2 setup of the Pale Flame and Bloodstained Chivalry sets will help a lot in the context of this setup, but the four-piece skills are equally useful if you want to try the complete sets.
How do I get Rosaria in Genshin Impact?
Rosaria is obtainable by spending wishes in the Wanderlust Invocation standard banner. She'll be rate-up in the banners during the second half of patch 3.3 for a few weeks from December 27.
It's a great time to seek out her constellations. Check out the Genshin Impact banner schedule for more information.
What are the best team comps for Rosaria?
Character | Element |
|---|---|
Rosaria | Cryo |
Fischl | Electro |
Albedo | Geo |
Diona | Cryo |
Rosaria can work on a team as a damage dealer if a unit like Albedo supports her in dealing additional damage. Fischl will also aid on that side while also triggering Superconduct reactions, and Diona will provide the necessary sustain and shields.

You can also find a more affordable and equally good alternative in the form of the Deathmatch. Last but not least, if you’re looking for a craftable option, you can obtain the Prototype Starglitter if you still don’t have any of the former.
What are the best artifacts for Rosaria?
Artifacts | Two-Piece Effect | Four-Piece Effect |
|---|---|---|
Noblesse Oblige | Elemental Burst damage +20% | Using an Elemental Burst increase all party members' Attack by 20% for 12 seconds. This effect cannot stack. |

Bloodstained Chivalry | Physical damage +25% | After defeating an opponent, increases Charged Attack damage by 50% and reduces its Stamina cost to 0 for 10 seconds. |
Depending on which build you choose to make, you may need Noblesse Oblige and Blizzard Strayer sets in case you want to use Rosaria as a Cryo DPS, or Pale Flame and Bloodstained Chivalry for Physical DPS purposes.
How many of these you choose to equip on her will depend on your gameplay, so it is suggested that you test different builds, see how they work as mixed or full sets and you can decide then.
What are the best artifact stats for Rosaria?
Slot | Main Stat | Sub Stats |
|---|---|---|
Feather | Attack | Critical Damage, Critical Rate, Attack%, Energy Recharge |
Flower | HP | Critical Damage, Critical Rate, Attack%, Attack |
Hourglass | Attack% | Critical Damage, Critical Rate, Energy Recharge, Attack% |
Goblet | Physical Damage Bonus% | Critical Damage, Critical Rate, Attack%, Attack |
Headpiece | Critical Rate / Critical Damage | Critical Damage/Critical Rate, Attack%, Attack, Energy Recharge |
Given Rosaria's set of skills, you want to develop Attack as the main stat and focus on boosting Critical Rate as the sub-stat.
What are Rosaria's skills and talents?
Attack | Effect |
|---|---|
Normal Attack | Performs up to 5 consecutive spear strikes. |
Charged Attack | Consumes a certain amount of Stamina to lunge forward, dealing damage to enemies along the way. |
Plunging Attack | Descends from mid-air to strike the ground below, damaging enemies along the path and dealing AoE damage upon landing. |
Elemental Skill - Ravaging Confession | Rosaria swiftly shifts her position to appear behind her opponent, then stabs and slashes them with her polearm, dealing Cryo damage. This ability cannot be used to travel behind opponents of a larger build. |
Elemental Burst - Rites of Termination | First, she swings her weapon to slash surrounding opponents; then, she summons a frigid Ice Lance that strikes the ground. Both actions deal Cryo damage. While active, the Ice Lance periodically releases a blast of cold air, dealing Cryo damage to surrounding opponents. |
Talent#1 - Regina Probationum | When Rosaria strikes an opponent from behind using Ravaging Confession, Rosaria's Critical Rate increases by 12% for 5 seconds. |
Talent#2 - Shadow Samaritan | Casting Rites of Termination increases Critical Rate of all nearby party members (except Rosaria herself) by 15% of Rosaria's Critical Rate for 10 seconds. Critical Rate Bonus gained this way cannot exceed 15%. |
Talent#3 - Night Walk | At night (18:00 - 6:00), increases the Movement Speed of your own party members by 10%. Does not take effect in Domains, Trounce Domains, or Spyral Abyss. Not stackable with Passive Talents that provide the exact same effects. |
Rosaria shines as a DPS, with swift and strong attacks that allow her to be extremely mobile on the battlefield while also inflicting great Cryo Damage, which in turn can be used to trigger great Elemental Reactions.
What are Rosaria's constellations?
Constellation | Effect |
|---|---|
Unholy Revelation | When Rosaria deals a Critical Hit, her Attack Speed increases by 10%, and her Normal Attack damage increases by 10% for 4 seconds. |
Land Without Promise | The duration of the Ice Lance created by Rites of Termination is increased by 4 seconds. |
The Wages of Sin | Increases the Level of Ravaging Confession by 3, up to a maximum level of 15. |
Painful Grace | Ravaging Confession's Critical Hits regenerate 5 Energy for Rosaria. Can only be triggered once each time Ravaging Confession is cast. |
Last Rites | Increase the Level of Rites of Termination by 3, up to a maximum level of 15. |
Divine Retribution | Rites of Termination's attack decrease opponents' Physical Resistance by 20% for 10 seconds. |
If you get to pull Rosaria multiple times, you will eventually reach a level of the constellation that will turn her into an excellent DPS unit, with improvements on all her Skills and their respective cooldowns, making Rosaria a great offensive unit for your party.
What are Rosaria's ascension materials?
Ascension Rank | Required Level | Required Materials |
|---|---|---|
1 | 20 | 20000 Mora, Shivada Jade Sliver x1, Valberry x3, Recruit's Insignia x3 |

6 | 90 | 120000 Mora, Shivada Jade Gemstone x6, Hoarfrost Core x20, Valberry x60, Lieutenant’s Insignia x24 |
Ascending Rosaria boosts her Attack and HP stats more than anything else, a welcomed improvement that makes her a great DPS. Farming the Cryo Regisvine can take a bit, but for improving a unit as helpful as Rosaria is for your team it's worth the effort.
What are Rosaria's talent materials?
Daily Drops | Enemy Drops | Weekly Drops |
|---|---|---|
Teachings/Guide/Philosophies of Ballad | Recruit's/Sergeant's/Lieutenant's Insignia | Shadow of the Warrior |
