Ever since a few months after the launch,Wuthering Waveshas shown some staggering improvement not only in the game’s performance but also in character design and animations. This makes their newer characters a lot more appealing than characters from the very start.
Roccia is one such character, and she’s also the second character released from the Rinascita region. She’s a five-star Havoc unit with Gauntlets as her weapon, and you’d want to build her properly if you want to get the most out of her kit.
Best Roccia Weapons
Unfortunately, Wuthering Waves has seena massive lack of decent weapons when it comes to most charactersunless you have their signature, and this is the same for Roccia. However, you still have a few choices to fulfill different needs:
Tragicomedy
Of course, Roccia’s signature weapon serves her the best as it gives her much-needed Crit Rate, extra ATK, anda massive Heavy Attack DMG boost.
Marcato
Marcato is another great four-star choice for Roccia as it gives her some Energy Regen and Concerto Energy, allowing you to switch much faster. Thoughyou’ll need a lot of Crit Rate from her echoeswith this one.
Stonard
If you buy the battle pass, you can also use this weapon on her to get the Crit Rate. However,the liberation damage bonus is uselessas her liberation is considered as a heavy attack.
Celestial Spiral
This can be another decent weapon toget extra damage on Rocciaby providing her with a ton of attack.
Gauntlets Of Night
Finally, your best three-star choice if you don’t have any of the above weapons is Gauntlets of Night to getanother decent ATK boost after using your Intro Skill.
Roccia Echo Guide
To build a character’s echoes in Wuthering Waves, you first have to select a proper set that would give yourcharacter the best bonuses, andthen choose their primary echo and stats. The primary echoes can use their abilities with the character during battle:
Best Roccia Echo Sets
Midnight Veil
This is the best set you’ll find for Roccia as it gives her increased Havoc DMG whilealso increasing the Havoc DMG for the resonator that you switch toafter triggering her outro.
Moonlit Clouds
If you haven’t unlocked the above set yet, you can also use this one to get some general buffs. This set is also better if you’reusing Roccia with a non-Havoc main DPS.
Nightmare: Impermanence Heron
Apart from dealing extra damage, this echo also increases Roccia’s Havoc and Heavy Attack DMG,which are both perfect stats for her.
Impermanence Heron
This echo can give her some extra energy when it hits the enemieswhile also providing ATK to the resonatorthat you switch to.
1-Cost
ATK Percent
You’d want to go with a 4-3-3-1-1 echo set with Roccia, but ifyou’re using a weapon without Crit Rate as the main stat, you can also try 4-4-1-1-1.
As for her sub-stats, you’d want as muchCrit Rate, Heavy Attack DMG Bonus, Energy Regen, and ATKas possible.
Best Roccia Team Compositions
Due to the limitations of the roster in Wuthering Waves and Roccia’s niche support utility, she doesn’t have a lot of great team compositions. There’sone team that’s perfect for her if you have the right characters, but you’ll have to make some compromises if you don’t:
Description
Roccia, Camellya, Shorekeeper
Camellya’s main source of damageis both Havoc and Basic Attack, which are thetwo attributes buffed by Roccia in her outro skill. This makes for a perfect team with Shorekeeper as the secondary buffer.
Havoc Rover/Danjin, Roccia, Baizhi
Both Havoc Rover and Danjin deal Heavy Damage as their main source, which isn’t buffed by Roccia. However,they can still use the Havoc DMG bonusif you don’t have a better support.
Baizhi is the F2P-friendly support and sustainer, butyou can easily replace her with Verina or Shorekeeperin these teams.
Roccia Traces Overview And Priority
There are plenty of characters in Wuthering Waves with difficult kits to understand,but Roccia isn’t one of them. She’s quite a simple character, and here’s how she works:
Ideally, you’d want Roccia’s time on the field to be as little as possible. This can be done by using her Intro Skill, Basic Attack, and Skill in that order. This will give you full stacks of Imagination while triggering the special state and allowing you to trigger three plunge attacks. Now,you can use her Liberation and switch offwith the outro skill.
If you’re planning to use Roccia only for her buffs, you don’t have to upgrade any of her abilities since they all buff damage. However, this extra damage can be crucial for various endgame modes. If you’re planning to challenge these, you’d want toupgrade her Forte Circuit, Skill, Liberation, and Intro Skill in that order.
You can leave her Basic Attack as you won’t use it much anyway.
