Lingyang: Lingyang is a melee DPS character with a unique playstyle that divides opinions. Like Calcharo and Encore, he deals most of his damage during his Ultimate, which enhances his normal combos. During his Ultimate, Lingyang is in the air, essentially flying, making him a good choice for players that enjoy such a combat style. Nevertheless, while this flying ability is unique, it also presents challenges. Players have limited control over direction and dodging, and issues with hitboxes can cause missed attacks, resulting in potential significant damage loss. Nevertheless, he is quite beginner-friendly and easy to master as far as his combos go, since they are essentially executable with button-mashing. In short, despite Lingyang’s unique playstyle, his lower damage output compared to Encore or Calcharo him less appealing as a main damage dealer. Priority:

Emerald of Genesis is a great weapon for Danjin because of its high base stats as a 5-star. Additionally, its effect provides Energy Regen so Danjin can use her Resonance Liberation more frequently , as well as an attack buff when using her Resonance Skill, which has 100% uptime due to the skill having no coold

Each character has a certain amount of Vigor that depletes as they are used in the Tower of Adversity. The Vigor cost increases with each level: Level 1 uses 1 Vigor, Level 2 uses 2 Vigor, Level 4 uses 4 Vigor, and so on. Vigor is deducted based on character usage, meaning if a character is swapped between teams or used in multiple levels, their Vigor will deplete accordin

Jianxin: Jianxin is a character that gives the good description of jack of all trades, master of none, being a hybrid character who balances support and damage roles, offering diverse team benefits. She excels in sustain, making her quite useful in overworld content combined with her AoE attacks that are excellent for defeating weaker groups of enemies. However, her versatility is both a strength and a weakness. Jianxin requires a lot of field time, making her not the best teammate for most of the existing primary DPS characters. She is prone to interruptions, struggles with high energy costs, and lacks the damage output needed for endgame content. Generally, for players who are interested in completing the story, exploring the world, and farm in overworld, over tackling end game content as of now, she is an excellent pick. Priority:

Tower of Adversity is one of the permanent endgame challenges in Wuthering Waves fishing event Waves , similar in concept to Genshin Impact ‘s Spiral Abyss. Players can expect to climb the tower’s levels and progress through its stages, but they will likely need significant investment in their characters and Union Levels to earn all the rewards for each stage effectively. This system helps players stay up to date with the current meta and incentivizes them to experiment with new team synergies over t

Sword#18 is great for keeping Danjin alive, especially if you’re using her without a dedicated healer. This weapon’s effect will essentially make her Heavy Attack heal even more when used above 60 Ruby Blos

While players might be familiar with similar endgame content, Tower of Adversity introduces unique aspects that require special attention. Here’s how players can unlock and progress through this content while using effective and F2P-friendly team compositions (although this isn’t essentially mandatory to

Danjin heavily relies on her Heavy Attack to heal and deal damage, so bringing along Mortefi is a great choice. Mortefi’s Outro Skill increases the next character’s Heavy Attack damage by a massive 38 perc

The Milestone and Path of Growth pages ask you to do certain tasks to get some Astrites as a one-time reward, while the Activity page lets you get 60 Astrites every day. However, you have to beat at least the third act of the main story to unlock your daily activ

Verina: Verina emerges as the most potent Support character upon release, and essentially the only 5-star support character as of now. She provides universal buffs, healing, and also resurrects a party member once every 10 minutes. In typical team setups that feature a Main DPS, a sub-DPS/support and a sustainer, Verina is one of the only characters alongside Baizhi that can fill the last spot. However, compared to Baizhi, she is a bit easier to play since she can offer longer buffs, and less effort or field time, allowing players to spend more time on other characters. Priority: Very

In terms of team requirements by zone, the Stable Zone requires only one team, as the Vigor cost is minimal, whereas the Experimental Zone requires two different teams due to higher Vigor demands.The Hazard Zone requires three different teams to manage the Vigor effectively for all towers within this zone. Players can swap team members between levels as long as they have enough Vigor remaining on the characters. Strategic planning is necessary to ensure that characters with sufficient Vigor are available for higher levels or more challenging towers. In the video above, players can see how vigor system in Stable Zone wo
