Wuthering Waves ramps up its event cycle with Version 3.1, debuting powerful Resonators and highly coveted weapons.

Should You Pull? Banner Decision Guide

F2P/Low-Spend:

Both Chisa and Lupa are one-time-only units for this period. Unless you have a hard favorite or irreplaceable synergy, focus on the Resonator you need most.
Mortefi, Taoqi, and Aalto are featured on both banners with increased 4-star rates—consider their utility for team depth.
Weapon banners guarantee their 5-star on pity, but weapon banners typically offer less value to limited-budget players. Unless you have the corresponding Resonator or need these weapons for a specific meta strategy, prioritize characters.

Optimizing Pulls:

The cross-banner pity (shared counter) reduces risk of waste when switching banners of the same type between pulls.
Plan pulls early: these characters and weapons will not return by other means according to current official info.
Trial each featured Resonator with the Ascendant Aces option for a free hands-on test before committing resources.

Teams, Synergies & Tips

Chisa: Synergizes in teams reliant on [Not stated in official materials—deep dive on release]. Ideal as a DPS or support depending on build (full details emerging post-release).
Lupa: [Not stated in official materials—await community testing]. Evaluate via trials in Ascendant Aces.
4-Star Resonators: Mortefi, Taoqi, Aalto add flexibility to mono-element and hybrid comps and may fill gaps for newer rosters, especially as each has increased availability this cycle.
Featured 5-Star Weapons: Kumokiri and Wildfire Mark are likely BiS (best in slot) for their paired units, but specifics on their unique passives and wider compatibility are not detailed in the official announcement.

Events & Rewards

During the event, all featured Resonators are available as Trial Resonators (Ascendant Aces). Complete challenges to earn event rewards—always resource-efficient and a practical way to preview new units.
The Waveband for Chisa and Lupa is only available for the event duration in the Afterglow Coral Store, capped at 2 per player.
All banners require the named currencies (Radiant Tide/Forging Tide); plan farming/consolation exchanges accordingly.

Preparation Checklist

Farm pull currencies (Radiant Tide, Forging Tide) before the banner launch or early in the cycle.
Clear relevant story missions/trial events to secure eligibility.
Review current Resonator and Weapon compositions to ensure investment will net the best account-wide improvement.
