Vortex Gaming

· Roen is a 5-star Cryo character releasing in Version 6.6, with their primary role being an attacker.
· They have particularly good synergy with Ganyu and can also be utilized in Freeze teams.
· Although initially expected to be a standard banner character, beta testing revealed performance comparable to limited characters. (Official announcement needed for release status)
· The recommended weapon is their signature weapon. If unavailable, options like 'Staff of Homa' or 'Deathmatch' can be considered, though the character has high reliance on their signature weapon.
· The recommended artifact set is 4-piece 'Savage Wind's Song'. Main stats should be ATK% Sands, Cryo DMG Bonus or ATK% Goblet, and CRIT Rate Circlet. Substats should prioritize CRIT Rate, followed by ATK% and Energy Recharge.
· Talent upgrade priority is Elemental Skill (E) first (Level 9+), then Elemental Burst (Q), with Normal Attack (NA) being the lowest priority.
· Ascension materials require items from the 'Mondstadt' region and materials related to 'Fire', 'Friday', 'Sunday', and 'Cycle'. · Base Stats (at Lv. 90): HP 12,858, ATK 344, Ascension Bonus - CRIT DMG 38.4%

· Recommended Team Compositions:
- Ganyu Yoimiya Team: Roen, Ganyu fixed + Fischl/Kuki Shinobu (Roen as main DPS, Ganyu as sub-DPS).
- Furina Freeze Team: Roen, Furina, Mona, Kazuha (Traditional Freeze team setup).
- Melt Yoimiya Team: Roen, Xiangling, Ganyu, Yoimiya (Team utilizing Melt reaction).
· Team Rotation Examples:
- Ganyu Yoimiya Team (18s): Roen (E Q) → Fischl (E NA) → Ganyu (E NA Q) → Yoimiya (NA) → Roen (E NA 3x CA repeat) → Roen (E NA 3x CA finisher) (Burst at the end).
- Furina Freeze Team (22s): Furina (E Q) → Kazuha (E Q) → Mona (E Q) → Roen (E 1x NA + 16x CA repeat) (Burst at the end).
- Melt Yoimiya Team (21s): Xiangling (Q E) → Ganyu (E Q) → Roen (E NA repeat) (Detailed rotation omitted due to lack of video data).

· Artifact Main Stat Comparison:
- Ganyu Yoimiya Team: Cryo DMG Bonus Goblet is optimal (approx. 5% higher DMG compared to ATK% Goblet). Circlet must be CRIT Rate.
- Freeze Team: If Mona uses 4-piece 'Laurels of the Lost', Roen's Goblet can be ATK% with minimal difference compared to Cryo DMG Bonus. Considering overall team DPS increase, 'Laurels of the Lost' might be more beneficial. Roen's Circlet is recommended to be CRIT Rate.
· Weapon Comparison (Ganyu Yoimiya Team Basis):
- Signature Weapon: Most powerful.
- Staff of Homa: Approx. 88% of signature weapon's performance.
- Deathmatch, Amos' Bow: Similar performance.
- Kazuha's Signature Weapon, Skyward Spine: Next best.
- Song of the Stars (4-star): Few recommended 4-star weapons besides event-exclusive ones. 'Skyward Spine' obtained from regional treasure chests is also an option.
- Freeze Team: Similar weapon efficiency as Ganyu Yoimiya team. However, in Freeze teams, Roen's damage contribution is higher, so the DPS drop might be more significant without their signature weapon.

· Team DPS Comparison (KQM Standard, F2P/Low-Spend Basis):
- Ganyu Yoimiya Team (with Fischl): Approx. 184,000 DPS (Roen contributes the most damage).
- Ganyu Yoimiya Team (with Kuki Shinobu): Approx. 150,000 DPS (DPS decreases due to longer rotation time).
- Kuki Shinobu C2 Team: Approx. 170,000 DPS.
- Freeze Team: Similar DPS to Ganyu Yoimiya team with Kuki Shinobu. Roen's damage contribution is higher.
- With Furina C2: Similar DPS to Kuki Shinobu C2 team.
· Constellation Effects:
- C1: DMG Bonus buff cap increases from 100 to 300, acquisition rate increases 5x.
- C2: After Elemental Skill/Burst, increases Elemental Mastery for the entire party by 200 for 8 seconds. Additionally, after Elemental Skill/Burst, Normal/Charged Attacks hitting within 8 seconds trigger a 500% ATK follow-up attack.
- C3: Elemental Skill Level +3.
- C4: When Burst is activated during the enhanced state, the DMG Bonus buff cap is reached. Elemental Burst energy cost reduced by 15.
- C5: Elemental Burst Level +3.
- C6: When Elemental Skill or Elemental Burst is activated during the enhanced state, the DMG Bonus buff is not consumed. Gauge is instantly maximized. Activating Elemental Skill increases buff duration by 1.25 seconds (once every 7 seconds). All DMG CRIT DMG increased by 175%.
