Torchlight Infinite: Complete Rosa Guide

Season 5 is finally here for Torchlight: Infinite and one of the biggest new additions is the new character, Rosa.

Rosa is a foul-mouthed but well-intentioned paladin who is quite fed up with the Holy Spirit’s hypocrisy. In gameplay, she excels at tanking and turning her defense into offense!

In this guide, we’ll tell you everything you need to know to play this brand-new character.

Complete Rosa Guide

Playstyle Basics

Rosa, the irreverent Paladin, is a highly mobile tank character. She can bolster her defenses and turn her defense into offense.

Playing Rosa adequately will require proper positioning and tactics at every moment, making her require a fair level of skill.

You’ll also need to perform lots of constant actions, so she can be button-intensive!

Blocking damage will earn Rosa stacks of “Murderous Intent”, which she can then spend to create a “Holy Domain” area of effect.

Holy Domain will grant Rosa extra damage based on her Block Chance, and you can even gain additional effects for it as you level up!

So, basically, you will need to focus on blocking enemy attacks to gain Murderous Intent, then unleash a Holy Domain to buff yourself and turn your defense into full offense.

Additionally, she has the unique High Court Chariot specialization.

High Court Chariot transforms Rosa into a highly mobile unit capable of dishing out extreme damage to foes while buffing allies!

Properly managing the Holy Domain and High Court Chariot will be key to turning the tide of battle quickly in Rosa’s favor.

Best Talent Trees

The best Talent Tree for Rosa is the God of War talent tree, as well as the Shadowdancer and Ranger subtrees.

God of War has many talents that can bolster Physical Attack and Block Chance, which are the main stats Rosa should be focusing on.

You should make sure to get the Brutality talent in particular. It gives a noticeable buff of 35% more Physical Damage, although you sacrifice the ability to deal Elemental Damage.

Later on, you will want to spec into the Shadowdancer subtree for even more Physical Damage and Block Chance talents.

Then, use Ranger as your third and final talent tree. The most useful Ranger talents for Rosa are the Critical Strike buffs, Skill Radius increases, and Melee Damage talents.

Important Stats On Gear

Lastly, let’s look at which stats you should focus on when getting gear for Rosa! With most gear being randomized, it’s only important to know which stats to focus on anyway.

Now, these are the best stats for Rosa:

• Offensive Stats: Physical Damage, Erosion Damage, Critical Strike Chance, Critical Strike Damage, and Block Chance.
• Defensive Stats: Max Life, Armor, Elemental and Erosion Resistances, Attack and Skill Block Chances, and Block Ratio.

Focus on getting these stats, particularly Block Chance, and you’ll make the most of Rosa’s unique tank playstyle.

Now, you should know everything you need to know to properly play the unique Lightbringer Rosa character!
