Wuthering Waves’ vast choices of weapons offer something for every playstyle, but not all armaments’ powers are created equal. By focusing on S and A-tier weapons like Abyss Surges, Cosmic Ripples, and Verdant Summit, you’ll be well-equipped to tackle even the most challenging content.
However, don’t be afraid to experiment with lower-tier weapons, as the right combination of Resonator, Echoes, and player skill can make even a B-tier weapon shine. Good luck and we hope that this tier helps!
