Kuro Games’ Wuthering Waves character enhancement features include echoes. Discover what they are, how to obtain them, and more here.
Contents
During the course of Wuthering Waves, players will gather, level up, and combine a large number of Echoes. Having synergy throughout your builds and building a powerful squad both depend on having this equipment.
Everything you need to know about Wuthering Waves’ Echoes is provided here.
What do Wuthering Waves Echoes Mean?
Wuthering Waves has trinkets called echoes that characters can equip to increase their stats and unlock new powers. Echoes are comparable to Relics in Honkai Star Rail or Artifacts in Genshin Impact.
The Echo that appears first on the equip list will be the one that is highlighted, giving your character an active ability to help them in combat. These may consist of new attacks that can be combined with healing effects and/or boosts.
Since echoes have unique qualities of their own, you can combine them to add new qualities.
Equipping two Echoes from the same set will activate Sonata Effects, which are bonuses. These effects may also result from various attributes; however, this will depend on the equipped Echoes.
Additionally, by leveling up, echoes can have access to sub-stats and boost their stats.
How Can I Get Wuthering Waves Echoes?
Finding Echoes in Wuthering Waves is a rather easy task. In the open world, monsters have the potential to drop Echoes once you kill them. The Echo will then be yours if you rush up to it and press F to absorb it.
Generally speaking, an enemy will drop a better Echo the stronger it is. This implies that you should expect a better echo if you battle opponents that are more experienced. However, depending on your Data Bank level, Echo’s rarity may also change.
The Wuthering Waves Echo Cost
The maximum Cost that a character in Wuthering Waves can have an impact on how many Echoes they can equip. There are four price ranges for echoes according on their class.
- Typical: One Price
- Elite: 3 Price
- Master: 4 Expense
- Disaster: Four Expense
Get Data Bank levels in order to raise the Cost cap for your characters.
