Pull Rates / Pity:
– Rates and pity systems were not detailed in the official Preview Special. Expect further information near launch on EarlyGG’s Pull Rates Explainer.
– Standard gacha guidance: anticipate a 50/50 or hard/soft pity system typical of flagship gacha titles, but do not presume specifics until officially confirmed.
Should You Pull? Expert Considerations
F2P and Limited-Spend Advice:
– Prioritize launch-day banners only if featured Resonators fit your long-term core team plan. Generic launches often showcase high-value units, but reruns are a routine part of gacha cycles.
– Without confirmed rates, consider banking currency for future event banners or rerun cycles—especially with competitive meta shifts likely in Wuthering Waves’ first patches.
Teams & Synergies At Launch
While the full meta is not available pre-release, players should:
– Match Resonator Elements: Early synergy likely dictated by elemental alignment and echo upgrades.
– Consider Multi-role Units: Versatile Resonators with healing or shielding are generally safe picks for early progression.
– Community Theorycrafting: Stay tuned to EarlyGG’s Launch Tier Lists and Builds for updated team recommendations once full data is released.

Unconfirmed — Subject to Change
