This is a good comeback that you can use at all times. It is also a good way to get back at the person if you know correctly that the person is not personally doing better than you.
Why not spend your time on something better
This shows that the person could have been a better person if he spent his time doing something better. You are in a way advising the person to spend his time doing better things, that way he will become a better person.

You sound too harsh
Roasting is so harsh, especially if the person was really mean to you and wanted to make you feel bad about yourself. This is a straightforward reply that you can give.
Let the person know how harsh it was to roast you. You may not necessarily need to roast back, but this reply will let the person know that it was too harsh of him to roast you.
Can’t you be nice for once
This shows that the person is not naturally a nice person and he is fond of roasting people. If you have never seen him being nice to someone and then he roasts you, ask him if he can’t be nice for once.
That way, it will draw his attention to the fact that he is not being nice to people and he will most likely consider being a nicer person and reduce roasting. This reply will go a long way to help the person more than it will help you.
Roast all you want

Stop being toxic
Sometimes, roasting can be so toxic especially if the person does it with hatred and jealousy. You directly tell the person in your reply to stop being toxic.
