Wuthering Waves pre-launch web event Echo Summon runs from April 29 to June 6. Players can participate in missions to collect a 5-star Echo, Astrite, and other rewards! Some key notes:
- It is better to wait until the game releases and find out the best 5-star Echo to claim as the event ends 2 weeks after the game's release on May 22, 2024.
- You can still continue to collect and share the Echoes you get and leave them in the Echo Gallery until that time.
- Shared Echos can be redeemed by other players - leave your share links in the comments below!
The Echo you should lock in depends on the characters you have in mind playing. Check out our full Echo Summon Event Guide below for recommendations, as well as the full official event rules below, the event page, and our current Echo database.
Guide
The best main Echoes to have on Resonators (your characters) are their best in slot Cost 4 Echo found in their character pages. This means that the web event Echoes doesn’t matter too much and is just a means to get a slight head start to the game and may be replaced later on.
It is always best to get the Gold 5-star (important) rank Cost 3 Echoes as they give the most EXP in data banks, and Echoes can be farmed by simply killing mobs and bosses in the overworld. Cost 3 Echoes always have ATK and ATK% substats.
Each Cost 1 and 3 Echo can have multiple possible Sonata set effects that can be acquired, and the best in slot main Echoes should be within the set the Resonator prefers.
If you don’t get the Echo that you want, at least pick a Cost 3 Gold rank echo just to further your data bank. Rarities are as follows:
