Augusta just dropped, and she’s not messing around. If Electro on-field DPS in full gladiator swing is your vibe, she’s the character you’ve waited for. I played her trial to test that shield-fueled Heavy Attack flex and she delivers.

Augusta in a Nutshell

• Element: Electro
• Weapon: Broadblade
• Role: Heavy Attack DPS with shield utility – time-stop ultimate included.
  Augusta cycles through Prowess, Ascendancy, and Majesty to build up to her Resonance Liberation, which pauses time for a burst of electrifying combos. She even shields herself and allies in the process.

Skill Priority: Aim for Max Efficiency

Top skill order to optimize clutch output:

1. Inherent Forte Circuit (fills all the resources)
2. Resonance Liberation (time stop burst)
3. Normal Attack (builds Prowess)
4. Resonance Skill (builds Ascendancy)
   Lower priority: Intro and Outro Skills

Best Weapon Picks

Best in Slot

• Thunderflare Dominion (Signature): High base ATK, Crit Rate, raises Heavy Attack DMG, and ignore DEF when shielded—perfect for her kit

Alternate 5★ Options

• Verdant Summit: Crit DMG and Heavy Attack synergy
• Ages of Harvest: Resonance Skill buffs and versatile scaling

4★ Options

• Aureate Zenith: Great Heavy Attack DMG bonus
• Autumntrace, Helios Cleaver: Good if you’re staying F2P

Echo Sets & Stats

Echo Set Breakdown

• Crown of Valor (3-pc): When shielded, repeatedly boosts ATK and Crit DMG; this stacks fast and hard.
• Void Thunder (2-pc): Adds solid Electro DMG bonus.

Echo Banner (Main Echo)

• The False Sovereign: Heavy Attack and Electro DMG bonus plus burst damage; go-to choice

Stat Priorities

• Main stats: Crit Rate or Crit DMG at highest cost, Electro DMG or ATK at mid tier, then ATK%
• Subs: Prioritize Crit Rate, Crit DMG, Heavy Attack DMG Bonus, ATK%, then Energy Regen

Pro tip from Rovers: Aim for 70-80% Crit Rate and around 250% Crit DMG, with ATK ~3000 if you’re S0. Energy Regen around 120% helps smooth rotations.

Teams That Make Her Shine

1. Augusta Prime DPS Team

• Augusta (Main DPS)
• Iuno (Electro/Shield support duo synergy)
• Shorekeeper (Team support and sustain)
  LDShop

2. Double DPS Team

• Augusta + Phrolova, with Shorekeeper for buffs and sustain

3. Hypercarry Options

• Augusta + Mortefi or Yinlin with Shorekeeper – STRAIGHT damage train

Shacknews even calls her a monster—steady Electro damage, shielded uptime, and a time-stop ultimate that’s fun and effective.

Final Thoughts

Augusta is all about timing, rhythm, and precision electro-heavy damage. Nail her weapon, echoes, team, and that DPS just sparks through the end game.
