Lucy Best Teams in Wuthering Waves

Lucy remains one of the more niche Sub-DPS units in Wuthering Waves, largely because her kit is built around pairing with Rebecca. That said, knowing how to build teams around her can still unlock solid damage output, even for F2P players. Below, we break down the best team compositions, premium and budget-friendly, as well as how to make Lucy work without her signature partner.

At a Glance

• Role: Sub-DPS / Support
• Best partner: Rebecca (synergy baked into kit)
• Premium team: Lucy + Rebecca + Mornye
• F2P team: Lucy + Mortefi + Verina
• Core mechanic: Heavy Attack DMG and Hack synergies

Premium Team: Lucy + Rebecca + Mornye

This is the composition Lucy was designed for. Both Lucy and Rebecca operate as dual Sub-DPS units, rotating quickly to stack buffs. Lucy boosts Rebecca’s Hack DMG, Basic Attack DMG, and overall damage output. When Rebecca exits, she returns the favor with heavy Heavy Attack DMG bonuses for Lucy.

Mornye fills the healer slot while also increasing the team’s off-tune buildup rate, which directly benefits the Hack mechanic shared by Lucy and Rebecca. If you don’t have Mornye, the Shorekeeper or Verina can step in, though you lose some synergy.

Rotation tip: Start with Lucy, apply her buffs, swap to Rebecca to unleash Hack combos, then cycle back to Lucy for Heavy Attack finishers. This keeps both characters’ buffs active.

F2P Team: Lucy + Mortefi + Verina

If you lack Rebecca, a budget hyper-carry team with Lucy as the main DPS still works for most endgame content. Mortefi acts as an off-field Sub-DPS, boosting Lucy’s Heavy Attack DMG and launching Fusion attacks whenever she performs a Heavy Attack. Since Lucy’s entire damage rotation counts as Heavy Attack DMG, this synergy is strong.

Verina provides healing and team-wide ATK buffs. She’s freely available and easy to build. If you have Baizhi or Shorekeeper, they can replace Verina, but Verina’s F2P accessibility makes her the prime choice.

Important note: This team loses DPS potential compared to the Rebecca variant, but it is still capable of clearing events and Tower of Adversity floors. Prioritize Energy Recharge on Lucy (around 130-140%) to keep her rotation smooth.

Should You Build Lucy?

Lucy is a strong investment if you have Rebecca or plan to pull her. Without Rebecca, she is still usable but outshone by other Sub-DPS options like Sanhua or Yangyang. That said, her niche synergy makes her a valuable unit for players who enjoy quick-swap playstyles.

Trade-offs:
– Premium team: high damage output but requires two limited 4-stars (Rebecca and Mornye).
– F2P team: lower ceiling but easier to assemble.
– Not a must-pull, but a solid addition to your roster if you like her kit.

Conclusion

Lucy’s best teams revolve around Rebecca, but even without her, a functional F2P lineup exists. Whether you invest in the premium duo or the budget version, understanding her Heavy Attack and Hack mechanics is key. Experiment with rotations and Energy Recharge thresholds to maximize her effectiveness.
