Who Is Roccia in Wuthering Waves?

Roccia is a 5-star Havoc Gauntlet resonator introduced in Wuthering Waves Version 2.0. She is the First Mate of the Fool’s Troupe — a gifted improvisational comedian who travels with a giant box of stage props and keeps her crew in order with a calm, composed personality. In combat, she is a fast and fun-to-play Havoc sub-DPS and buffer who specializes in grouping enemies, dealing solid personal Havoc damage, and delivering one of the most impactful Outro buffs in the game for Havoc-focused main DPS characters. This guide covers the complete Roccia best build for version 3.4, including her weapons, echoes, teams, rotation, and skill priorities.

Roccia fills the same role for Havoc teams that Zhezhi fills for Carlotta or Yinlin fills for Xiangli Yao. She is the dedicated sub-DPS support for Camellya and also pairs well with Rover (Havoc) and Danjin. For the latest patch notes, see the Wuthering Waves 3.4 update page.

Roccia Kit Overview – How She Works

Roccia’s kit revolves around a resource called Imagination and her signature combat state called Beyond Imagination. Her gameplay is simple to pick up but has a high damage ceiling when optimized.

• Imagination (Forte Circuit): Roccia’s core resource, capped at 300. She generates Imagination through Basic Attacks (each hit grants Imagination), her Intro Skill (grants Imagination on entry), and her Resonance Skill. Every 100 Imagination equals one bar on her Forte gauge, and she needs at least 100 Imagination active to trigger Beyond Imagination.
• Beyond Imagination State: When Roccia has at least 100 Imagination and uses a Heavy Attack, she launches into the air and activates Beyond Imagination. In this aerial state, she performs a series of Plunge Attacks called Real Fantasy — up to three bounces that deal heavy Havoc DMG. Each bounce consumes 100 Imagination. Landing all three bounces maximizes her damage and Concerto generation (up to 51 Concerto total). This is the heart of her damage window.
• Resonance Skill – Roccia’s Glamorous Stage: Pulls all nearby enemies toward Roccia, grouping them in one spot. This is the best crowd-control ability in the game for multi-target content and a core part of her rotation. It also grants Imagination instantly — at base, 100 Imagination per use — enabling an immediate transition into Beyond Imagination.
• Resonance Liberation – Real Fantasy: A large Havoc AoE burst that also boosts the entire team’s ATK based on Roccia’s CRIT Rate. Higher CRIT Rate means a bigger ATK buff for the whole team. This is why building toward 70% CRIT Rate is the target stat goal for Roccia.
• Outro Skill: Gives the next incoming resonator 20% Havoc DMG Deepen and 25% Basic Attack DMG Deepen for a set duration. This dual buff is Camellya’s dream — her entire damage kit scales off Havoc DMG and Basic Attack, so both parts of Roccia’s Outro apply simultaneously. Through her second Inherent Skill, Roccia also passes a unique ability to the next character — the Super Attractive Magic Box — which gives that character a free grouping utility skill to pull enemies together even while they are on the field.

Roccia Best Weapons – Ranked for 3.4

Roccia uses Gauntlets. She needs ATK, CRIT Rate, and Heavy Attack DMG bonuses. Her Liberation’s ATK buff scales with CRIT Rate, making 70% CRIT Rate the main stat target regardless of weapon choice.

1. Tragicomedy (Best in Slot – Signature)

Tragicomedy is Roccia’s signature weapon and her undisputed best-in-slot. It provides a CRIT Rate substat, increases ATK by 12% at R1, and — most importantly — grants a 48% Heavy Attack DMG Bonus for 3 seconds every time she uses a Basic Attack or Intro Skill. Since she regularly fires Basic Attacks to build Imagination before entering Beyond Imagination, the Heavy Attack DMG buff is almost always active during her plunge sequence. This weapon pushes her Beyond Imagination damage significantly higher than any alternative and makes hitting the 70% CRIT Rate target much easier.

2. Blazing Justice (5-Star Alternative)

A strong 5-star standard Gauntlet alternative. It features a DEF Ignore passive that helps Roccia’s hits land harder against high-DEF enemies. Slightly outperforms Verity’s Handle in raw DPS due to the DEF Ignore passive making its numbers more consistent. A solid pick if you have it from standard pulls.

3. Verity’s Handle (5-Star Alternative)

Another solid standard 5-star Gauntlet with a CRIT Rate substat and an Attribute Damage Bonus passive. The CRIT Rate substat makes reaching the 70% CRIT Rate target more manageable, similar to Tragicomedy. Slightly behind Blazing Justice in overall output but a reliable alternative.

4. Abyss Surges (5-Star F2P Option)

The best standard 5-star Gauntlet for players who do not have Tragicomedy, Blazing Justice, or Verity’s Handle. It provides Energy Regen, which helps keep Roccia’s Liberation available every rotation. The Energy Regen is particularly useful since Roccia’s Liberation is a core part of her ATK buff for the team. A completely functional option that costs no limited pulls.

5. Celestial Spiral (Best 4-Star Weapon)

The best 4-star Gauntlet for Roccia. It provides ATK and a passive that boosts Resonance Skill DMG, which contributes to her grouping skill damage. A reliable free-to-play option at lower investment levels. Pair it with Energy Regen from echo substats to compensate for the lack of ER from the weapon.

6. Aether Strike or Stonard (4-Star Alternatives)

Decent 4-star Gauntlet alternatives with ATK or CRIT-related bonuses. Use whichever you have at higher refinement if Celestial Spiral is not available. Marcato is another workable 4-star option with useful passive stats for her kit.

Roccia Best Echo Set – What to Farm

Roccia’s best echo set depends on what main DPS she is paired with. For Havoc teams, Midnight Veil is the clear pick. For non-Havoc teams, Moonlit Clouds wins out.

Midnight Veil (5-Piece) – Best for Havoc Teams

Midnight Veil is Roccia’s best echo set when running her alongside Havoc main DPS characters like Camellya, Rover (Havoc), or Danjin.

• 2-piece bonus: Havoc DMG +10%
• 5-piece bonus: When Roccia uses her Outro Skill, it triggers a large Havoc nuke (480% DMG multiplier) and gives the next incoming resonator an additional 15% Havoc DMG Bonus on top of her Outro Skill’s existing 20% Havoc DMG Deepen

The 5-piece Outro nuke is a meaningful burst of personal damage at the end of her rotation, and the extra Havoc DMG Bonus stacks cleanly with her Outro buff. The main echo for this set is Nightmare: Impermanence Heron, which provides Havoc DMG and Heavy Attack DMG bonuses — both stats that directly power her Beyond Imagination plunge attacks.

Moonlit Clouds (5-Piece) – Best for Non-Havoc Teams

When Roccia is paired with a non-Havoc main DPS (such as Encore or other elements), Moonlit Clouds is the better choice.

• 2-piece bonus: Energy Regen +10%
• 5-piece bonus: After casting Outro Skill, the next incoming resonator gains ATK +22.5% for 15 seconds

The Energy Regen bonus keeps Roccia’s Liberation available every rotation. The ATK buff from Outro applies cleanly to any DPS regardless of element, making this the best choice outside of Havoc team compositions. The main echo for this build is Impermanence Heron.

Lorelei (Alternative Main Echo)

Lorelei is a strong alternative main echo for DPS-focused Roccia builds. It provides Havoc DMG and Basic Attack DMG bonuses — which mirrors the exact stats Roccia buffs through her Outro Skill. This echo is particularly good if you want her personal damage and Outro value to align around the same stats. Preferred by players who lean more into her sub-DPS output over pure buffing.

Best Echo Stats for Roccia

Use the standard 4-3-3-1-1 cost pattern. Here is what to target for each slot:

• 4-Cost Echo: CRIT DMG (if using Tragicomedy or another CRIT Rate weapon) — CRIT Rate (if using a non-CRIT Rate weapon like Abyss Surges)
• 3-Cost Echo x2: Havoc DMG Bonus
• 1-Cost Echo x2: ATK%

For substats, prioritize in this order: Energy Regen (to breakpoint, around 130% with Moonlit Clouds 2-piece) → CRIT Rate → CRIT DMG → ATK% → Heavy Attack DMG Bonus. The key stat goal is 70% total CRIT Rate, because her Resonance Liberation’s team ATK buff scales with her CRIT Rate. Missing this threshold weakens her team support significantly. At S3, she gains 10% CRIT Rate and 30% CRIT DMG after Intro Skill — meaning reaching 70% CRIT Rate becomes much easier at that sequence node.

Roccia Best Teams in Wuthering Waves 3.4

Roccia is primarily a Havoc support. Her 20% Havoc and 25% Basic Attack Deepen Outro is element-specific, so she performs best in Havoc teams. She can work in non-Havoc teams with Moonlit Clouds, but her value is lower there.

Team 1 – Camellya Havoc Team (Best Team)

• Camellya – Main DPS (Havoc DPS whose damage is entirely Havoc and Basic Attack — both buffed by Roccia’s Outro)
• Roccia – Sub-DPS and buffer (groups enemies, Outro Havoc + Basic Attack Deepen, team ATK buff from Liberation)
• Shorekeeper – Healer (CRIT Rate and CRIT DMG buffs plus All-type DMG deepening)

This is the best Havoc team in the game and Roccia’s definitive home. Camellya’s entire damage output is Havoc-based and relies on Basic Attacks — both parts of Roccia’s Outro apply to her simultaneously, creating one of the highest single-target damage multipliers in the game. Roccia’s grouping from her Resonance Skill also sets up Camellya’s AoE attacks perfectly. Shorekeeper adds CRIT buffs and healing on top. A dominant team at any investment level.

Team 2 – Rover (Havoc) Team

• Rover (Havoc) – Main DPS
• Roccia – Sub-DPS and buffer
• Verina or Baizhi – Healer

Roccia is Havoc Rover’s best buffer. The Outro’s 20% Havoc and 25% Basic Attack Deepen both apply to Rover’s kit. Roccia’s grouping is especially appreciated here since Rover’s Havoc attacks have a smaller AoE. Pulling enemies in with the Resonance Skill and then using the Magic Box utility lets Rover hit everything in one spot. A strong and accessible team for players who have Rover built.

Team 3 – Danjin Havoc Team

• Danjin – Main DPS (Havoc Sword; self-harm Resonance Skill playstyle)
• Roccia – Sub-DPS and buffer (best buffer option for Danjin teams)
• Verina or Baizhi – Healer (essential to offset Danjin’s self-damage)

Roccia is the best available buffer for Danjin. The Havoc DMG and Basic Attack DMG Deepen from Roccia’s Outro boost Danjin’s output meaningfully. A viable Havoc team for players who have Danjin but not Camellya.

Team 4 – Mono Havoc (Full Havoc Roster)

• Cantarella – Sub-DPS and debuffer
• Roccia – Sub-DPS and buffer (Outro buffs Cantarella’s Havoc and Basic Attack DMG)
• Phrolova – Completes the Outro chain; her buff lands back on Roccia’s Havoc and Heavy Attack DMG

A dedicated Mono Havoc team for players with the full Havoc roster. Cantarella applies debuffs and coordinated attack damage, Roccia groups and buffs, and Phrolova completes the Outro chain — making this team a self-sustaining Havoc buff loop. High ceiling, high investment.

Roccia Rotation Guide

Roccia’s rotation is straightforward once you understand the Imagination system. The goal is to enter Beyond Imagination as fast as possible, land all three plunge bounces, use Liberation, then Outro to your main DPS.

1. Intro Skill — Enter the field; grants Imagination automatically on entry
2. Basic Attack (up to hit 4) — Builds additional Imagination quickly; at S1, this step is shortened significantly
3. Resonance Skill – Roccia’s Glamorous Stage — Groups all nearby enemies and grants 100 Imagination instantly; also deals Havoc AoE DMG
4. Heavy Attack — With 100+ Imagination, this triggers the launch into Beyond Imagination
5. Plunge Attacks x3 (Real Fantasy) — Land all three bounces for maximum Havoc DMG and Concerto generation (up to 51 Concerto per full sequence). Do not miss bounces — each one feeds Concerto for the Outro.
6. Resonance Liberation – Real Fantasy — Use when available for the team ATK buff and personal Havoc AoE burst
7. Echo Skill – Nightmare: Impermanence Heron or Lorelei — Activate for the Havoc DMG and Heavy Attack DMG bonus window
8. Outro Skill — Swap to main DPS with 20% Havoc DMG Deepen and 25% Basic Attack DMG Deepen active; the Magic Box utility transfers to them for additional grouping

Always land all three plunge bounces before Outro. Missing bounces reduces both your personal damage and your Concerto generation, which can delay the Outro and cut into your main DPS’s buff window. Roccia’s rotation is quick — she does not need a lot of field time once optimized.

Roccia Skill Priority

Level her skills in this order:

1. Forte Circuit — Scales the Beyond Imagination plunge attack (Real Fantasy) damage; the core of her personal damage output
2. Resonance Liberation — Her team ATK buff scales with how hard the Liberation hits; worth leveling for endgame
3. Resonance Skill — The grouping ability; more useful and lower scaling; still worth leveling for consistency
4. Normal Attack — Used to build Imagination; lower priority since the numbers are small
5. Intro Skill — Lowest priority; primarily generates Imagination on entry

Roccia Sequence Nodes (Resonance Chains)

Roccia works well at S0. Her grouping, Outro buffs, and Liberation ATK boost are all fully operational from one copy. However, some of her sequence nodes are among the most impactful in the game.

• S1: Resonance Skill immediately grants 100 extra Imagination and 10 Concerto Energy, plus Roccia gains interruption immunity during Real Fantasy. This shortens her rotation significantly and protects her during the plunge sequence. A strong quality-of-life upgrade.
• S2 (The Big One): After Roccia uses Real Fantasy, the entire team gains 40% Havoc DMG Bonus for 30 seconds. This fires every single rotation and makes Roccia the strongest Havoc buffer in the game at S2. It is unlikely any character surpasses this level of Havoc team-wide buffing in the near future.
• S3: Roccia gains 10% CRIT Rate and 30% CRIT DMG for 15 seconds after her Intro Skill. This massively eases stat requirements — hitting 70% CRIT Rate with substats becomes much more manageable and lets you invest more in CRIT DMG.
• S4: Resonance Skill slam attacks gain 60% extra DMG multiplier — a meaningful personal damage boost for the grouping attack.
• S6: Largest overall power spike; significantly increases Forte Circuit and Liberation damage scaling.

S2 is the single most impactful sequence node in Roccia’s kit. The 40% team-wide Havoc DMG Bonus it provides on every rotation is transformative for Havoc teams. If you plan to invest in Roccia long-term for a Camellya or Havoc Rover team, S2 is worth aiming for.

Is Roccia Worth Building in Version 3.4?

Roccia WuWa is one of the best sub-DPS characters in the game for any Havoc team. Her Outro’s 20% Havoc + 25% Basic Attack DMG Deepen is specifically designed around Camellya’s kit, making her the premier partner for the strongest Havoc DPS in the current meta. Her grouping ability is the best crowd-control tool in the game for multi-target content. Her Liberation’s team ATK buff based on CRIT Rate is a unique and strong team support mechanic.

She is slightly limited outside of Havoc teams — her Outro is element-specific, so Moonlit Clouds with a generic ATK buff becomes her best option in those lineups, which is a step down from her Havoc-team power level. But within Havoc compositions, she is irreplaceable.

Wuthering Waves is also coming to Xbox and Game Pass in July 2026. For more Havoc character guides, check out builds for Camellya, Danjin, Rover (Havoc), and Cantarella.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is the best build for Roccia in Wuthering Waves?

The best Roccia build uses Tragicomedy (signature) and a 5-piece Midnight Veil echo set with Nightmare: Impermanence Heron as the main echo. Use CRIT DMG on the 4-Cost piece, Havoc DMG on both 3-Cost pieces, and ATK% on both 1-Cost pieces. Aim for 70% CRIT Rate total and around 130% Energy Regen. For non-Havoc teams, swap Midnight Veil for Moonlit Clouds.

Is Roccia good in WuWa 3.4?

Roccia is one of the best sub-DPS characters in version 3.4 for Havoc teams. Her Outro dual buff, crowd-control grouping, and Liberation team ATK boost make her the ideal partner for Camellya, Rover (Havoc), and Danjin. At S2, she becomes the strongest Havoc buffer in the game.

How does Roccia’s Outro Skill work?

Roccia’s Outro gives the next incoming resonator 20% Havoc DMG Deepen and 25% Basic Attack DMG Deepen for a set duration. Through her second Inherent Skill, the next character also receives the Super Attractive Magic Box — a transferable grouping utility that pulls nearby enemies together even while the main DPS is on the field.

What is the best team for Roccia?

Roccia’s best team in version 3.4 is Camellya + Roccia + Shorekeeper. Camellya’s entire kit scales off Havoc and Basic Attack — both parts of Roccia’s Outro apply to her simultaneously, making this one of the highest-damage Havoc compositions in the game. Rover (Havoc) + Roccia + Verina or Baizhi is a strong and accessible alternative.

Is Roccia’s S2 worth it?

Yes — S2 is one of the most impactful sequence nodes of any character in the game. It grants the entire team 40% Havoc DMG Bonus for 30 seconds after every Real Fantasy activation. This fires every rotation and permanently elevates the damage ceiling of any Havoc team. If you are deeply invested in a Havoc lineup, S2 Roccia is worth aiming for.
