Latest Wuthering Waves Banners Offer Game-Changing Potential
Wuthering Waves 1.3 Phase One: Till the Sea Turns Clear
The first character banner, Till the Sea Turns Clear, includes the following:
5 star
4 star
Pistols
Fusion
Shorekeeper isWuthering Waves' second-ever 5-star healer, following Verina. For most meta compositions, aside from teams with Jinshi, her Resonance Liberation makes her a worthwhile upgrade. For the duration of the event, there are boosted drop rates for Shorekeeper, Taoqi, Yanyang, and Chixia. Notably, players are guaranteed a 5-star character within 80 Convenes, alongside a 4-star or higher item assured every 10 Convenes. However, with a total of 25 days to pull for her, players shouldn’t anticipate Shorekeeper’s banner returning anytime in the near future.
Rectifier
Significantly, Stellar Symphony and Endless Collapse are new additions to the Featured Weapon Convene. All listed weapons will benefit from boosted drop rates during the event; however, it’s important to note thatShorekeeper’s Stellar Symphony weaponis exclusive to the Featured Convene and won’t be available through any other means after the event finishes. Nevertheless, players are guaranteed to receive the target 5-star weapon on their first 5-star pull.
For the duration of the event, there will be boosted drop rates for all the mentioned items. Jiyan, an Aero-Broadblade unit, is the first rerun character, recognized for his formidable offensive and defensive capabilities. His upcoming banner features an ideal lineup of 4-star Resonators, including Sanhua, regarded as one of thebest 4-star characters inWuthering Waves, and Mortefi, who synergizes well with Jiyan.
Additionally, the upcoming banner in patch 1.3 will introduce anew 4-star character, Youhu. While some players were disappointed that Youhu wasn’t included in Shorekeeper’s banner, it’s exciting to see a new 4-star Resonator added to the game. She not only seems highly versatile in healing but also appears well-suited for the sub-DPS role.
Broadblade
When it comes tothe best weapons inWuthering Waves, the last two are generally regarded as B-tier options. Verdant Summit is usually paired with Jiyan and Calcharo, but free-to-play players might opt for the Guardian Broadblade instead. Celestial Spiral is the only new weapon on this banner, with its main stats focusing on ATK. Similar to Stellar Symphony, players are 100% guaranteed to obtain Verdant Summit on their first 5-star pull.
