Wuthering Waves: Qiushui Guide

Getting Started Experience

Qiu Shui’s passive ability allows her to restore a layer of “Mist Drops” (up to 6 drops) by hitting enemies with basic attacks or passing through the “Airborne Gate” in fog. Qiu Shui primarily outputs damage through her skills, with higher output when utilizing her passive.

However, Qiu Shui leans towards a supportive role. She enhances aerial damage for the next character to appear or those utilizing extended performance skills by 23%, lasting for 14 seconds.

Team Composition Recommendations
Main DPS: Ji Yan

Survivability: Veirna, Bai Zhi

Qiu Shui Recommendations

If you are not an XP enthusiast, it’s recommended to develop Qiu Shui as a support utility character. For XP enthusiasts, prioritize damage and invest resources to maximize power generation for love.

Skill Focus
Prioritize upgrading Resonance Skills and Resonance Circuits first, followed by Resonance Release, and finally basic attacks and variation skills.

Constellation Recommendations (Personal Opinion Only)
① Zero Constellation is sufficient for assured utility, maximizing support tool value (recommended for non-XP and light-XP spenders).

② For subsequent enhancement, recommend the first, third, and sixth constellations (recommended for XP enthusiasts and spenders):

First: Reduces skill cooldown by 4 seconds.
Third: Adds a mechanism.
Sixth: Increases ultimate damage cap.
Voicebreak Recommendations

① Set Recommendations:

Transitional Set (Light Cloud’s Moon2 + Whistling Valley Wind2): Increases resonance efficiency by 10%, aerial damage by 10%.
