With the Wuthering Waves Version 1.1 update "Thaw Of Eons" now live, players can enjoy new content, quests, and rewarding events. In the second half of this update, one of the most anticipated characters, Changli, is introduced.
To prepare players for Changli's banner release alongside the second half of the Wuthering Waves Version 1.1 update, we will provide insights into her strengths, weaknesses, optimal Echoes combinations, recommended weapons, and team strategies. This guide aims to help players understand how to effectively utilize Changli and prepare to build her once obtained.
Please note, the information in this article reflects the current consensus among players regarding Changli's optimal build. As the game evolves, Changli's role and meta effectiveness may change, leading to adjustments in recommended builds and team compositions.
Changli - Ascension Materials & Skill Level Up Materials
Changli is a 5* Limited Specto Resonator that will be on rate up from the 22nd of July, 2024, with her Rate Up Banner running for a total of 3 weeks alongside her limited rate up weapon banner.
Changli Ascension Materials
In order to prepare and upgrade Changli, players will need to farm several different materials in order to upgrade, ascend and level up her skills accordingly.
For generic materials such as Resonator Upgrading EXPs, Shell Credits and Weapon enhancement EXPs, players can farm those at the Training Simulation.
For Changli’s ascension materials in order to help uncap her level cap, players will need to fight the World Boss Inferno Rider in order to obtain her ascension material - Rage Tacet Core. In order to upgrade Changli to max, players will need a total of 46 of these materials to fully upgrade Changli to lv90.
Furthermore, to ascend Changli to the maximum level of 90, players must collect a total of 60 Pavo Plumes scattered throughout the overworld. These Coriolus can be discovered in the new explorable area, Mt. Firmament. For assistance locating them, players can refer to our interactive map.
Weapons & Skill Upgrading Materials
Apart from leveling and ascension materials, enhancing Changli's power requires upgrading her weapon and skill levels using specific materials. One type drops from overworld enemies, while another can be obtained from specific domains that require energy expenditure.
To acquire the overworld monster materials, players must farm Tailored Rings from normal enemies or purchase them from the in-game souvenir shop. Since these are crucial for Changli's ascension and skill upgrades, it's advisable to accumulate them in advance.
For the domain-specific materials, since Changli is a Sword Weapon type user, she will need the different rarity Metallic Drips from the Forgery Challenge:. This is needed for both skill upgrades and weapon upgrades, so players will need to spend quite a bit of energy to get them as well.
Changli - Echoes & Weapons Recommendations
Echoes Sotana Set Recommendations
As Changli is a Spectro Resonator, if players want to focus mainly on boosting Changli’s main damage while she is on the field, then the Molten Rift set is the naturally recommended set for Changli as a Fusion DPS.
However, another decent set that players can run for Changli to help boost her overall damage is the Lingering Tunes Sonata Set, which helps boost her attack stat when she is on the field and boost her outro skill’s damage.
Echoes Main And Sub Stats Recommendation
For main and sub-stats for Echoes, Changli will need a varied set of stats needed for her to shine her best as the team’s main DPS dealer while also helping to deal damage when she leaves the field.
The main stats that players should get are:
- 4 Cost Echo (Inferno Rider): Crit Damage% / Crit Rate%
- 3 Cost Echoes: 2 Fusion Damage%
- 1 Cost Echoes: 2 Atk% Echoes
Recommended Sub Stats: Crit Rate% / Crit Damage% > Normal Attack Damage% > Resonance Skill Damage% > Atk%
Weapon Recommendations
For Changli, her best in slot weapon is of course her signature weapon:
- Blazing Brilliance (5* Limited) (Atk + Crit Damage%): Increases CRIT Rate by 12% . Upon dealing damage, increases Searing Feather by 1 stack, gaining 1 stack every 0.5s. When Resonance Skill is released, increases Searing Feather by an extra 5 stacks. Each stack of Searing Feather increases Resonance Skill DMG Bonus by 4%, stacking up to 14 times. After reaching 14 stacks of Searing Feather, all stacks will reset within 10s.
For alternatives, players can use these weapons as substitutes:
- Emerald of Genesis (5* Standard) ( Atk + Crit Rate%): Energy Regen is increased by 12.80% . When Resonance Skill hits a target, ATK is increased by 6% . This effect can stack up to 2 time(s) and last for 10s.
- Commando of Conviction (4* Standard) (Atk + Atk%): When Intro Skill is cast, increases ATK by 15%, lasting for 15s.
- Lumingloss (4* Battlepass) (Atk + Atk%): When Resonance Skill is cast, increases Basic Attack DMG and Heavy Attack DMG by 20%, stacking up to 1 time(s). This effect lasts for 10s and can be triggered 1 time(s) every 1s.
Changli Playstyle Analysis, Skill Upgrade Priorities & Recommended Teams
Changli Playstyle and Abilities
Changli is a 5-star Limited Fusion Element Resonator who wields a shortsword in combat, dealing Fusion elemental damage to enemies. Her combat strategy focuses on executing continuous normal attacks to charge her Forte gauge and activate the True Sight state. This enables her to imbue her attacks with Fusion Elemental damage.
Changli's normal attacks deliver up to four rapid instances of damage, with the final hit granting her the True Sight state. While airborne, players can expend True Sight to execute a plunging attack, dealing Fusion damage to nearby enemies.
Changli's Resonance Skill activates True Sight, causing all her attacks to inflict Fusion elemental damage. At the end of True Sight, Changli performs a plunging attack that deals Fusion elemental damage to nearby enemies.
Changli's Resonance Liberation inflicts significant Fusion damage on all enemies and grants her the Fiery Feather buff. This buff increases her ATK% and adds Enflament stacks each time she executes Heavy attacks. Her Forte Gauge enables her to accumulate up to 4 Enflament stacks, which can be expended to unleash a powerful Fusion elemental attack during her Heavy Attack.
Changli Skill Upgrade Priorities
Changli’s main source of damage comes from her Forte Gauge and Normal Attacks, so they are of the highest priority for players to upgrade.
Changli’s Liberation Release and her Resonance Skill also contribute greatly to her overall damage output when she is on field, therefore, to maximize Changli’s damage potential, these abilities should be leveled up after her Normal Attacks.
Recommended Teams
As a versatile Fusion DPS Resonator and effective Fusion Damage Supporter, Changli excels in two distinct roles within different team compositions: one as a primary DPS and the other as a sub DPS or Fusion Damage Support.
One recommended team composition focuses on maximizing Changli's DPS potential, with additional Resonators providing support to enhance her damage output while she is active on the battlefield.
The 2nd team is a mono Fusion team that makes the best use of Changli’s synergy with other Fusion Resonators as a Fusion Damage Support. This team excels at dealing with contents that require players to deal with enemies that are weak to the Fusion Element. The team consists of:
Note: Chixia or Changli can be the main DPS for this team, Mortefi can be replaced for a sustain supporter if the team is too prone to damage.
