What is the best build for Augusta?

The optimal build for Augusta as an Electro DPS is the Tidebreaking Courage set (3-piece) + Void Thunder (2-piece). Her signature weapon Thunderflare Dominion or Jiyan's weapon Verdant Summit are recommended.

Is Augusta a good F2P character?

Yes, Augusta is excellent for a new account and F2P friendly. She can be played with Mortefi and 4-star weapons like Aureate Zenith or Waning Redshift R5.

What rotation should I use with Augusta?

Augusta rotation: Wait 4s → Skill → Heavy Attacks → Liberation 1 → Heavy Attacks → Charged Skill → Liberation 2 → Echo → Outro. IMPORTANT: never swap between characters during Augusta's outro or you will lose the Majesty point.

What are the best teams for Augusta?

The best team for Augusta includes Iuno (Sub-DPS) + Shorekeeper/Verina (Support). Alternative: Augusta + Lynae + Iuno to take advantage of the Rupture mechanic. Augusta can also be played with Yinlin or Mortefi.

Which talents should I prioritize for Augusta?

Augusta talent priority: 1) Liberation (60% of damage), 2) Forte (22%), 3) Normal Attack (14%), 4) Skill (3%), 5) Intro (1%). Level up Liberation first to maximize her potential.

Meilleures armes Augusta Wuthering Waves

Augusta arme Thunderflare Dominion

Augusta's signature weapon. Crit Rate is lower than other weapons due to higher flat ATK. It's a really great weapon and if you don't have Jiyan's weapon or Iuno, I strongly recommend pulling for it.

Augusta arme Verdant Summit

Jiyan's signature weapon. This is a Crit DMG weapon so use a Cost 4 Crit Rate echo. If you don't have Augusta's weapon, this one is really good.

Augusta arme Ages of Harvest

Jinhsi's signature weapon. This is a Crit Rate weapon so use a Cost 4 Crit DMG echo. Nice but not the best in the game, especially if you don't have Iuno.

Augusta arme Wildfire Mark

Lupa's signature weapon. This is a Crit DMG weapon so use a Cost 4 Crit Rate echo. It's a decent weapon but not ideal with Augusta as she is neither Liberation nor Fusion.

Augusta arme Kumokiri

Chisa's signature weapon. This is a Crit Rate weapon so use a Cost 4 Crit DMG echo. It's a very strong weapon but not with Augusta, as she doesn't apply negative effects.

Augusta arme Radiance Cleaver

The new permanent weapon. This is a Crit DMG weapon so use a Cost 4 Crit Rate echo. Good alternative especially for a permanent weapon.

Augusta arme Lustrous Razor

The permanent weapon. This is an ATK% weapon so use a Cost 4 Crit Rate echo. It's the old permanent weapon, still solid but without Iuno it might be tough.

Augusta arme Aureate Zenith (R1)

The Battle Pass weapon. This is a Crit DMG weapon so use a Cost 4 Crit Rate echo. It's the best 4-star weapon for Augusta.

Augusta arme Autumntrace (R1)

The Battle Pass weapon. This is a Crit Rate weapon so use a Cost 4 Crit DMG echo. This weapon is really decent even though on paper, Aureate Zenith is preferable at R5.

Augusta arme Waning Redshift (R5)

An F2P weapon. This is an ATK% weapon so use a Cost 4 Crit Rate echo. It's the best accessible F2P weapon for Augusta at R5.

Meilleur build Augusta sets d'échos Wuthering Waves

Augusta set Tidebreaking Courage + Void Thunder

Tidebreaking Courage 3-piece + Void Thunder 2-piece

The best set to maximize Augusta's Electro damage. Perfect synergy with her kit. This set grants a Crit DMG boost and the 2-piece Electro set gives an Electro DMG bonus.

Augusta set Void Thunder

Void Thunder 5-piece

There is honestly no real reason to use this build. It's just here for the sake of having an alternative.

Rotation Augusta Wuthering Waves

Wait 4 seconds: At the start of combat, wait 4 seconds before entering combat to gain 1 Majesty point

Skill: Cast the Skill to increase your Prowess and deal damage

Heavy Attacks: Cast Heavy Attack to consume your Ascendancy and deal damage

Liberation 1: Cast Liberation to increase your Prowess and deal damage

Heavy Attacks: Cast Heavy Attack to consume your Prowess and deal damage

Charged Skill: Cast the Charged Skill to consume your Ascendancy and gain 1 Majesty point

Liberation 2: Cast Liberation to consume your Majesty points and deal massive damage.

Echo: Use your echo to deal damage and gain energy recharge.

Outro: Once concerto is full, use your Outro on your support character.

2nd Rotation: After the 1st rotation, you gain Prowess more easily thanks to the intro, making rotations shorter.

It is IMPERATIVE not to swap between characters when using Augusta's outro, otherwise the Majesty point will not transfer and the rotation is broken.

Meilleures teams Augusta WuWa

Augusta team Main DPS Team

In this team, Augusta is the main damage dealer. The rotation is standard — just be careful not to swap between characters (without outro) after Augusta's Outro, or you'll lose the Majesty point.

Augusta team Rupture Team (Longer Rotation)

Lynae buffs Iuno, Iuno buffs Augusta, and Augusta buffs Lynae. When mastered, I think this is Augusta's best team while taking advantage of the new dissonance mechanic.

Augusta team Phrolova Team

When using Augusta's second ultimate, Hecate disappears so Phrolova won't deal off-field damage.

Augusta DPR Wuthering Waves - Augusta DPS WuWa - Augusta Calculs Wuthering Waves

Augusta DPR Iuno Shorekeeper Team

This is Augusta's best team, and it will stay that way for a while.

Augusta DPR Old Permanent Weapon Team

Augusta's weapon is really important. However, if you have Jiyan's weapon, it's more than enough and very playable.

Augusta DPR Iuno Mornye Team

A great team but Mornye doesn't fully benefit from her entire kit. If possible, Shorekeeper is a better choice.

Augusta DPR Iuno Verina Team

This team is very accessible and sufficient to clear endgame.

Augusta DPR Iuno Baizhi Team

This team is playable. However, this assumes Augusta picks up Baizhi's Feather or you lose ATK. I strongly recommend using Verina instead.

Augusta DPR Iuno Lynae Team

Lynae fits perfectly in the team with great synergy, but it's weaker than the Shorekeeper version. Also, Lynae prefers 3.x teams.

Augusta DPR Mortefi Shorekeeper Team

As long as you have Augusta's weapon, this team is playable. But expect the damage to not be very high.

Augusta DPR Mortefi Mornye Team

As long as you have Augusta's weapon, this team is playable. But expect the damage to not be very high.

Augusta DPR Mortefi Verina Team

As long as you have Augusta's weapon, this team is playable. But expect the damage to not be very high.

Augusta DPR Mortefi Baizhi Team

As long as you have Augusta's weapon, this team is playable. But expect the damage to not be very high. Baizhi is not very useful here; Verina is preferable.

Augusta DPR Lynae Team

Lynae fits perfectly in the team with great synergy, but it's weaker than the Shorekeeper version. Also, Lynae prefers 3.x teams.

Augusta DPR Phrolova Shorekeeper Team

Phrolova buffs Augusta well, but she deals very little damage because Augusta's ultimate cancels Phrolova's. The team works, but it's not exceptional.

Augusta DPR Phrolova Verina Team

Phrolova buffs Augusta well, but she deals very little damage because Augusta's ultimate cancels Phrolova's. The team works, but it's not exceptional.

Augusta DPR Yinlin Shorekeeper Team

Yinlin is not very useful with Augusta as she boosts Liberation damage while dealing little damage herself. I don't recommend this team.

Augusta DPR Yinlin Verina Team

Yinlin is not very useful with Augusta as she boosts Liberation damage while dealing little damage herself. I don't recommend this team.

Augusta DPR Augusta Mornye Team

It's playable but the element has NOTHING TO DO with it — it's tied to the Heavy Attack DMG buff. The Cloud set is worse than the Adam Smasher set.

Augusta DPR Augusta Shorekeeper Team

It's playable but the element has NOTHING TO DO with it — it's tied to the Heavy Attack DMG buff. The Cloud set is worse than the Adam Smasher set.

Augusta DPR Augusta Verina Team

It's playable but the element has NOTHING TO DO with it — it's tied to the Heavy Attack DMG buff. The Cloud set is worse than the Adam Smasher set.
