This article details Lauma's skill mechanics, elemental reaction gameplay, signature weapon, constellation bonuses, and recommended team composition, helping you maximize her damage and support effectiveness in this new patch.

Warm Note: All information is based on the latest leaks and data and may be subject to change before the official release. Please proceed with caution.

1. Introduction to Lauma

Lauma is a five-star Catalyst character, focusing on Dendro attributes. Her unique "Moonlight Bloom" mechanic is at the core, providing powerful support and elemental reaction buffs. She can unleash dryad elemental attacks from the field, while also providing damage and crowd control for the team, making her an indispensable support core for Dendro teams.

Role

Element: Dendro

Weapon: Catalyst

Rarity: ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

Core Mechanic: Moonlight Bloom Support, Elemental Mastery Buff

Rauma's unique ability lies in her ability to transform normal Bloom reactions into higher-damage Moonlight Blooms, while also increasing the critical hit chance and critical damage of Ultimate Bloom and Sprout reactions, making Dendro's team even more explosive in elemental synergy.

II. Normal Attacks and Charged Attacks

Normal Attack: Spirit Wood Combo

Rauma's normal attacks can be combined into up to three consecutive hits, each dealing tree damage, providing stable support for base damage.

Charged Attack: Spirit Bringer Transformation

Rauma enters Spirit Bringer mode, consuming Stamina to charge forward. She can jump twice in a row, dealing area-of-effect tree damage at the end. This attack grants increased interrupt resistance while cast and transforms into Spirit Bringer upon cooldown, dealing further area-of-effect tree damage.

Dash Attack

Rauma can swoop down from the air, dealing area damage and ground impact damage in his path, making him useful for monster clearing and crowd control.

In summary, Rauma's basic and charged attacks not only provide consistent damage but also synergize well with the Dryad damage from his elemental skills.

III. Elemental Skills: Runo Calthico's Breath of Dawn

Rauma's elemental skills center around summoning Frostforest Sanctuary, which can be activated with a tap or a long press.

Tapping: Deals area-of-effect tree damage with a quick release, making it suitable for regular damage.

Holding: Consumes Emerald Dew and generates the Moon Song effect. Each drop of Emerald Dew consumed grants one stack of Moon Song, stacking up to three times. Attacks released with a long press also count as Moonlight Damage, reducing the enemy's Tree and Water resistance for 10 seconds.

Through his elemental skills, Rauma can continuously inflict Dryad damage while also providing buffs to the team. The Frostforest Sanctuary not only provides consistent damage but also triggers the Moonlight Bloom reaction, boosting overall team damage.

4. Elemental Burst: Holy Hymn: Hearts of the Moon

Rauma's Elemental Burst is the core of his team's buffs and damage output.

Basic Effect: Unleashes 18 stacks of Pale Hymn, granting damage boosts to allies with Bloom, Ultimate Bloom, Sprout, and Moonlight Bloom.

Moon Song Conversion: If you cast Elemental Burst while possessing Moon Song, each stack consumed grants you an additional 6 stacks of Pale Hymn.

Pale Hymn is consumed when allies deal elemental damage. Based on the damage boost from Rauma's Elemental Mastery, multiple stacks of Pale Hymn can be consumed when hitting multiple targets, resulting in a wide-area damage buff.

5. Passive and Ascended Talents

Passive Talent: Frost Night Light

For 20 seconds after using an elemental skill, grants different buffs based on the team's moon phase:

Lunar Charm: Bloom, Ultimate Bloom, and Sprout grant a fixed 15% critical strike chance and 100% critical strike damage. These effects stack.

Moon Sign: Rising Radiance: Increases allies' Moonlight Bloom damage critical chance by 10% and critical damage by 20%.

Ascension Talent: Spring Cleaning

Each point of Elemental Mastery increases Frostwood Sanctuary's damage by 0.04%, up to a maximum of 32%.

Charge Attack cooldown is reduced by 0.02% for each point of Elemental Mastery, up to a maximum of 20%.

Ascension Talent: Nature's Chorus

When a Bloom reaction is triggered, it transforms into a Moonlight Bloom. Each point of Elemental Mastery increases the base damage of the Moonlight Bloom by 0.0175%, up to a maximum of 14%. The team's Moonsign level also increases accordingly.

Ascension Talent: Prayer for the Forest

Displays the locations of unique resources in Nordic regions and interacts with critters affected by Kuwaki, facilitating exploration.

VI. Signature Weapon: Millennial Hymn

Base Stats: 542 Attack, +265 Elemental Mastery

Skill Effect:

When an elemental skill deals Water or Tree damage, gain Prayer of the North (increases Elemental Mastery by 60-120 points, lasts 4.5 seconds).

When a teammate triggers a Lunar Reaction, gain Crescent Verse (increases Elemental Mastery by 60-120 points, lasts 10 seconds).

When activated simultaneously, Bloom damage is increased by 120-240%, Maximal Bloom and Germination damage by 80-160%, and Lunar Reflection damage by 40-80%. This applies to the entire team, even when the equipped character is not present.

Millennium Hymn perfectly complements Rauma's Lunar Bloom mechanic, increasing the team's elemental reaction damage and overall damage output.

VII. Constellation Bonus

C1: Within 20 seconds of using an elemental skill or burst, allies who trigger the Lunar Bloom effect will recover health equal to 500% of Rauma's Elemental Mastery. Charged attacks also reduce stamina cost by 40% and last 5 seconds longer.

C2: Pale Hymn buff increased, increasing allies' Lunar Bloom damage by 40%.

C3: Elemental Burst level +3

C4: Frostwood Sanctuary attacks restore 4 Elemental Energy, triggering once every 5 seconds.

C5: Elemental Skill level +3

C6: Frostwood Sanctuary attacks deal an additional 185% of Elemental Mastery tree damage, granting Pale Hymn stacks and refreshing their duration. Basic attacks consume Pale Hymn to deal 150% of Dryad damage.

Rauma's constellation bonus significantly increases team survivability and sustained damage, especially C2 and C6, which significantly enhance Lunar Bloom's damage.

8. Recommended Team and Gameplay

The optimal Rauma team composition is centered around Dendro. The recommended lineup is as follows:

Rauma + Nahida (Case 2) + Nilou + Hydro

Nahida's Case 2 buff stacks with Rauma's Moonlight Bloom.

Nilou provides sustained water elemental damage, enabling high-frequency blooms.

The team is generally stable and has high burst damage.

Key Gameplay Strategies:

First, use Rauma's elemental abilities to set up Frostforest Sanctuary and stack Moon Song.

Trigger the Moonlight Bloom reaction to maximize Pale Hymn.

Use charged attacks and elemental bursts to create sustained area-of-effect damage.

Use Case 2 and Case 6 to increase overall team burst damage.

9. Summary

Rauma is a rare Dendro support in Patch 6.0. Using the Moonlight Bloom mechanic and Frostforest Sanctuary abilities, she maximizes the team's elemental damage. Not only does she boost the damage of Bloom, Ultra Bloom, and Germination, but she also enhances the survivability of allies, making her a top-choice support for any Dendro team.

If you already have a complete Dendro lineup, Rauma is a must-have. Start saving up your Primogems now and wait for the release of Patch 6.0 to add her to your arsenal. By choosing the right Millennium Hymn weapon and Constellation bonuses, you can maximize her support effectiveness.
