Transcripts
In this video, I will share with you 7 useful tips that not many new players know about and
I guarantee at least one of these tips will make your experience much better in Wuthering Waves.
If you ever come across these ores out in the open world – just take your time to quickly mine them,
especially if it’s Indigoite ore vein you can see here or Scattlethorn material – both of these
ores are going to be used for free 4-star weapons that you can craft. To do this, you need to go at
this location here called… well, Weapon Crafting. And as you can see, you can craft a 4-star weapon
for each class, so you can get a 4-star Rectifier, Pistols, Broadblade, Gaunlets and Sword.
Now are these weapons cracked? Well, at the early game, they are pretty much the best thing you
can get your hands on if you get unlucky with the Gacha system, since they do provide a really good
Base ATK compared a 3-star weapon and even some of these weapon passive effects are pretty good. Keep
in mind, in order to actually craft these weapons, you will also need this Standard Weapon mold,
which will drop from a weekly boss and there are currently two – Bell-Borne Geochelone and Scar,
so just pick the one whose ascension materials you can utilize for your
characters and then you can do them up to 3 times per week and there’s a chance you
can get this Standard Weapon Mold from them. Now one thing to keep in mind – you can use
map markers to remind yourself where you mined the ores since I believe they refresh every day after
the server resets… but to save yourself some sanity and speed up the process of gathering
these ores, you can use an interactive map on your browser, for example, I am using Wuthering.gg/map,
I’ll leave a link in the description and you can easily check out all the known locations
for these ores, to get that 4-star weapon as soon as possible. Also, there’s one cool bonus
tip at the end of video I will show you, 7 tips just sounded better for the title
so make sure to watch this video till the end. Now this next tip is pretty crucial – collect
everything. I mean it – if you’re one of those packrats who hoards every material
you can get your hands on, now is the time to shine for you because you’ll get rewarded
with Astrites and other useful materials you can help level up your account and progress.
What I mean by this is that there are two of the places that aren’t so clear about rewards but
definitely offer them… and it’s the Synthesizer and Cooking station. When you’re in their menu,
you see this place right here that says Synthesis Level for Synthesizer and Chef
Level for cooking? Well, if you click on this button, you will get to see a preview of rewards
and Proficiency score – you raise Proficiency by simply just crafting or cooking the various
things in these places and once you level up Proficiency you get the rewards – pretty
easy to get some FREE Astrites and materials. On top of that – if you visit this Relic merchant,
you can submit Sonance Caskets you found all over the world. These caskets are basically
Genshin equivalent to Oculus and this place is extremely important for those of you who decided
to play Rover the main character, because some of the rewards will provide crucial materials
such as Mysterious Code that’s used to ascend Rover’s level and even Wavebands that can be
used to obtain new powers via the Resonance Chain system, also known as Constellations from Genshin.
Finally, you can also visit Pioneer Association at this location where you can receive a ton
of rewards for each percentage of the map areas you complete – so again, out in the open world,
just collect everything and do all puzzles chests that you come across for tons of rewads.
Now this next tip is probably the most important one I wanna talk about – do not waste your
Waveplates on unnecessary activities. Waveplates are basically the stamina system for this game,
not only do you get a ton of Union level experience to help increase
your account’s level but you can also pick up some important rewards by spending Waveplates.
But where do you spend them on? As a good rule of thumb, it’s recommended to first prioritize
dumping your Waveplates on World Bosses and the Weekly challenge which can be done up to 3 times
per week. Yes, there’s Simulation Challenge you can do for various level up materials but since
the game just launched, you should be getting a lot of these materials by just completing events
and by exploring open world. On the other hand, when you want to for example ascend to level 50
or after reaching Union level 20, it will cost 3 boss materials per character and right now,
I am not sure whether this is just the current drop rate or I was unlucky but I had to spend 540
Waveplates or 180 Waveplates for each character, just to prepare to ascend my main 3-unit team to
level 50. So that’s 2 days-worth of Waveplates. Obviously, if you’re playing Rover, the cost goes
down since they use their own special ascension materials you can get from the Relic merchant
but still… I would only recommend spending your Waveplates on Simulation training if you don’t
need the boss materials and from the looks of it – we will need tons of it, for example, if nothing
has changed since CBT2, you need 46 Boss materials in total to fully ascend a character – so in other
words lots of Waveplates you’ll need to spend. And later on, you will also unlock these Tacet
Fields which can grant Tuners and Echoes as a reward – the current recommendation would
be to wait until you reach Data Bank 15, which will then allow you to farm highest rank Echoes.
And speaking of which – do not over invest into lower rank Echoes. There are currently 4 rarities
of Echoes, ranging from Green all the way to Golden or simply known as Rank 5. You basically
only want to level up Rank 5 Echoes because they offer the best main stat increase and the amount
of substats you can unlock, however, it would be unrealistic to not level up lower rarity echoes
to have an easier time with the game, however if you do that, it is recommended to raise them at
most to level 5, if we talk about Blue or Purple echoes, also known as Rank 3 or 4 Echoes. On top
of that – focus first on leveling echoes that provide either something like Critical Rate
or Elemental Damage Boost from their main stat, which will be found on Cost 3 and 4 Echoes. And of
course, try to complete the set bonus if possible. I will talk about more how to quickly raise your
Data Bank level in future video that’s coming out very soon, so hey – I’d appreciate if
you could subscribe to my channel and press the like button on this video.
Now continuing on with the trend of resource assignment, I highly recommend to first focus
on raising 1 Main DPS character you like to play with. That means assigning best echoes, giving
that 4-star or 5-star weapon and prioritizing Waveplates to be spent on them is basically a
good way to have that one damage dealer that can quickly take care of any monsters in the open
world to save you time when farming or exploring. And as I said before – you definitely want to use
at least a 4-star weapon instead of a 3-star one because it provides a much better Base ATK that
will scale with your main character’s damage quite well. Basically, we are in the early game right
now and it’s no different than from most gacha games where having at least 1 strong unit on
your team can help with progressing the game. Now I personally love this – there’s a 5-star
character selector banner that you can unlock after completing the beginner’s banner – HOWEVER,
this banner can be a bit misleading. So, here’s the thing – you can wish on this banner by either
using Lustrous Tides or by spending Astrite. You can also just buy Lustrous Tides with
Astrite. But the thing is – you should never bother spending Astrite for Lustrous Tides
because this is a currency that’s used only for Standard banner and this selector banner.
You definitely want to always save up Astrite for either featured character or weapon banner
and when it comes to Lustrous Tides – trust me, you will keep earning them from events,
in-game mail rewards and world exploration – so just don’t rush and spend Astrite on this
selector banner – save it up and collect those Lustrous Tides to spend them here afterwards.
When exploring the world, you will come across many chests and these things called Tidal
Heritages. You’ll notice they give this resource called Wood-textured Shard. Well, you can actually
spend it in a special shop located right here at the Souvenir Store. Talk to this NPC and tell
them you want Souvenirs. And as you can see here, you can spend this Wood-textured Shard to obtain
Lustrous Tides for that Selector or Beginner banner I mentioned or obtain experience materials,
tuners, ascension mats and even recipes, to help raise you that Chef level for even more rewards.
Now as a bonus tip, this isn’t something that I recommend to do for everyone but if you want to
speed up your exploration there is pseudo mount you can obtain in the game. So, you
will need to accept this quest right here from the bulletin board, called “We Promise, We Deliver”.
Complete this quest chain and you will unlock the ability to fight and collect Inferno Rider echoes.
Now here’s the cool part, if you long press the Echo button to summon the Inferno Rider, you can
actually ride it anywhere in the open world for a few seconds. But, what you can also do is equip 3
copies of this same Echo on all your active team mates, to keep riding the motorcycle over and over
again. Obviously, this echo might not be the best match for every character but if you by any chance
have to farm this boss and want to speed up your exploration or simply look cool – you can do this.
But yeah, hope you found this video useful and as always I would really appreciate if
you could subscribe to my channel and press like on the video because… I am gonna have quite the
sleepless week putting out guides for you guys. Anyway, thanks for watching and see you next time.
