Wuthering Waves: Roccia Build Guide

Roccia is the newest 5-star character to join the Wuthering Waves roster in the second phase of Version 2.0. She is a powerful Havoc sub-DPS unit that uses Gauntlets. While being a sub-DPS, Roccia has a lot of utility to provide to the team in the form of Havoc DMG buffs and a ton of grouping. You can learn more about Roccia and how to build her below.

Roccia is a 5-star Havoc unit that uses Gauntlets. While she is not classified, from her kit we can clearly see that Roccia is meant to be used as a sub-DPS unit that will also buff your main DPS. Roccia’s kit works by having you build up Forte so that you can then go into the air and enter her [Beyond Imagination] state. In this state, Roccia can perform up to three bounce attacks that deal decent damage and group enemies. Her Resonance Skill is basically a tornado that pulls enemies in, but the nifty thing about it is that when you’re using other characters, your gadget or [T] key will be replaced with a variant of Roccia’s Resonance Skill that will allow you to group enemies even if Roccia isn’t on the field. Lastly, her Resonance Liberation is just a big AoE-damaging spell that also buffs the whole team’s ATK based on Roccia’s CRIT Rate, so when building Roccia you definitely want to get at least 70% CRIT Rate to maximize this buff.

In short, Roccia is a simple unit to use that focuses on grouping units and buffing Havoc damage. She is a great sub-DPS unit to pair with your main Havoc DPS such as Camellya, Danjin, or Havoc MC. Roccia will only get better as more Havoc DPS units are released, and you can expect her to become a staple in Havoc teams for the foreseeable future.

Roccia Best Weapons

When it comes to Roccia’s best weapons, you might be a bit disappointed to find that your best choice here is her signature weapon, the [Tragicomedy]. There is honestly a shortage of good Gauntlets we can use, and apart from the Tragicomedy, your next best choice is the [Verity's Handle], so you can say that Roccia is slightly limited when it comes to weapon choices.

Rank	Weapon	Effect
1	Tragicomedy	Increases ATK by 12%. Every time Basic Attack or Intro Skill is cast, Heavy Attack DMG Bonus increases by 48% for 3s.
2	Verity's Handle	Gain 12% Attribute DMG Bonus. When using Resonance Liberation, the wielder gains 48% Resonance Liberation DMG Bonus for 8s. This effect can be extended by 5s each time Resonance Skills are cast, up to 3 times.
FREE TO PLAY
3	Celestial Spiral	Casting the Resonance Skill grants 6 Resonance Energy and increases ATK by 10%, lasting for 16s. This effect can be triggered once every 20s.

Roccia Best Echo Sets

Roccia’s best echo set is the newly added [Midnight Veil] set. This set gives Roccia a good boost to Havoc DMG while also buffing the incoming character’s Havoc DMG, helping even more with her sub-DPS utility. As for stats, you definitely want to reach a 70% CRIT Rate on Roccia so that you can get the most out of her Resonance Liberation buff.

Roccia Skill Priority

Lastly, we’ll talk about Roccia’s skills. The first thing you want to focus on is Roccia’s Forte Circuit, as that is the part of her kit that increases her damage the most. After this, you want to focus on her Resonance Liberation to further increase Roccia’s damage potential, increase the buff given by the ult, and then focus on everything else.
