Wuthering Waves 2.4: Echo Sets, Main Stats & Best Combos

 


The 2.4 update for Wuthering Waves has brought fresh units, brand-new echo sets, and shifts in how each character performs in meta team comps. If you're wondering what the best echo choices are now, this guide breaks down the top set recommendations, main echo picks, and stat priorities — updated for every character in version 2.4. We’ll keep it clean, to the point, and tailored for practical use. Let’s jump into it.


Cartia – Best Echo Set & Stats

Cardia now has a tailored echo set: Windward Pilgrimage, which clearly complements her kit. You can start with Sierra Gale temporarily, but switch out as soon as possible.

  • Main Echo: Reminiscence (Flirt the Lease)

  • Main Stats:

    • 4-cost: Crit Rate or Crit Damage

    • 3-cost: Arrow DMG or HP

    • 1-cost: HP

  • Substats: Energy until ~110%, then Crit, HP%, and Basic Attack DMG

Cardia’s full potential comes out with 44111 stat setups, but 43311 is still viable.


Jian – Windward or Sierra Gale?

Jian is flexible, but it depends on your party composition.

  • If you have Chakona: Use Windward Pilgrimage + Nightmare Kelby

  • If not: Use Sierra Gale + Standard or Nightmare Monkey

  • Main Stats:

    • 4-cost: Crit

    • 3-cost: Arrow DMG or ATK%

    • 1-cost: ATK%

  • Substats: ~125% Energy → Crit → ATK% → Heavy Attack DMG

Arrow DMG on the 3-cost is ideal. Choose based on your energy regen and team synergy.


Ciaccona – Go Full Gust

For Chakona, the best set is Gust of Walren with Reminiscence as the main echo.

  • Main Echo: Reminiscence

  • Main Stats:

    • 4-cost: Crit

    • 3-cost: Arrow DMG

    • 1-cost: ATK%

  • Substats: Around 110% Energy → Crit → ATK% → Flat ATK

Some support builds can use Moonlight Clouds + Impermanence, but DPS Chakona favors Gust.


Yangyang – No Real Changes

Despite new sets, Moonlight Clouds is still the top choice for Yangyang.

  • Main Echo: Impermanence

  • Main Stats:

    • 4-cost: Crit

    • 3-cost: Arrow DMG

    • 1-cost: ATK%

  • Substats: 110% Energy → Crit → ATK% → Flat ATK

No reason to pivot from her established build — it still performs reliably.


Rover (Aero Element) – Dual Build Potential

The new Aero element gives Rover two strong paths:

  • For DPS: Go Windward Pilgrimage

  • For Healer: Use Rejuvenating Glow

  • Main Echo: Reminiscence or Fallacy of No Return (depends on role)

  • Main Stats:

    • 4-cost: Crit

    • 3-cost: Arrow DMG or ATK

    • 1-cost: ATK

  • Substats: Crit → ATK% → Flat ATK → Skill DMG

Energy isn’t required if you max their personal weapon, but it helps.


Alto – Surprisingly Useful Again

Alto received buffs, making him viable again in the right team.

  • Best Sets:

    • Windward Pilgrimage if in Cardia/Chakona team

    • Sierra Gale for standard support

  • Main Echo: Nightmare Monkey (Sierra) or Impermanence (Moonlight)

  • Main Stats:

    • 4-cost: Crit

    • 3-cost: Arrow DMG

    • 1-cost: ATK

  • Substats:

    • Support: 125% Energy

    • DPS: Crit → ATK% → Flat ATK → Basic ATK

Solid support option with more flexibility now.


Chixia – No Update Needed

Chixia’s build is the same as before:

  • Best Set: Moonlight Clouds or Rejuvenating Glow

  • Main Echo:

    • Velour or Fallacy (depending on echo set)

  • Main Stats:

    • 4-cost: Crit

    • 3-cost: Arrow DMG

    • 1-cost: ATK

  • Substats: Get as close to 135% Energy as possible → Crit → ATK% → Liberation DMG

Energy is her biggest limiter, so focus substats there.


Xiangli Yao – Still Void Thunder

No big changes for Xiangli Yao:

  • Best Set: Void Thunder

  • Main Echo: Nightmare Thundering Memphis

  • Main Stats:

    • 4-cost: Crit

    • 3-cost: Electro DMG

    • 1-cost: ATK

  • Substats: 120% Energy → Crit → ATK% → Liberation DMG

Same echo, same rotation. Still consistent in output.


Yinlin – Impermanence All the Way

The old debate between Moonlight and Imperion is over. Use Imperion Anthem.

  • Main Echo: Nightmare Tempest Memphis

  • Main Stats:

    • 4-cost: Crit

    • 3-cost: Electro DMG

    • 1-cost: ATK

  • Substats: 120% Energy → Crit → ATK% → Skill DMG

Her synergy with this set is too good to pass up.


Calcharo – Mostly Unchanged

Calcharo still runs Void Thunder with Nightmare Thundering Memphis.

  • Main Stats:

    • 4-cost: Crit

    • 3-cost: Electro DMG

    • 1-cost: ATK

  • Substats: ~115% Energy → Crit → ATK% → Liberation DMG

The 44111 crit build can work if you’re highly skilled, but 43311 is more practical.

Lumi – High Cost, Low Value

Unless you really like Lumi, she’s not a recommended investment. But if you insist:

  • Echo Set: Moonlight Clouds

  • Main Echo: Impermanence

  • Main Stats:

    • 4-cost: Crit

    • 3-cost: Electro DMG

    • 1-cost: ATK

  • Substats: ~145% Energy (yes, that high) → Crit → ATK% → Basic ATK DMG

This setup is energy-intensive and barely pays off. Consider this a niche choice at best.


Yuanwu – No Practical Use Case

Unless you own Gintie, Yuanwu has no significant role. Still, here’s the echo build:

  • Echo Set: Moonlight Clouds or Rejuvenating Glow

  • Main Echo: Heron or Bellorn

  • Main Stats:

    • All Slots: Focus only on Energy

  • Substats: Full Energy % priority

Ignore everything else. No damage stat is meaningful on him right now.


Lüba – Pre-Release Plan

Lüba hasn’t launched yet, but we already have the intended synergy:

  • Echo Set: Flaming Clawprint

  • Main Echo: Lioness of Glory

  • Main Stats:

    • 4-cost: Crit

    • 3-cost: Fusion DMG

    • 1-cost: ATK

  • Substats: As much Energy as possible → Crit → ATK% → Liberation DMG

Final numbers may change post-launch. Watch for official stat tuning before committing.


Mortefi – Still Meta-Stable

Mortefi remains consistent, even with new fusion sets in the mix:

  • Echo Set: Moonlight Clouds or Imperion (depends on teammates)

  • Main Echo: Impermanence (Moonlight) or Hecate (Imperion)

  • Main Stats:

    • 4-cost: Crit

    • 3-cost: Fusion DMG

    • 1-cost: ATK

  • Substats: ~110% Energy → Crit → ATK% → Liberation DMG

Use Moonlight if more than one unit shares the set.


Brand – Go All-In on Energy

Brand works best when fully fueled. Echo choice depends on your weapon:

  • With Signature Weapon: Tiebreaking Courage

  • Without It: Molten Rift

  • Main Echo: Dragon of Dirge or Inferno Rider

  • Main Stats:

    • 4-cost: Crit

    • 3-cost: Energy%

    • 1-cost: ATK%

  • Substats:

    • 250%+ Energy if possible

    • Crit → Energy% → ATK% → Basic ATK DMG

Energy scaling is key. Fusion DMG becomes viable with high energy investment.


Encore – Still Using Molten Rift

Even with new echoes, Encore stays with her classic combo:

  • Echo Set: Molten Rift

  • Main Echo: Inferno Rider (Regular, not Nightmare)

  • Main Stats:

    • 4-cost: Crit

    • 3-cost: Fusion DMG

    • 1-cost: ATK

  • Substats: ~110% Energy → Crit → ATK% → Flat ATK

She’s consistent and doesn’t require special adjustments.


Changli – Skill-Damage Focus

Don’t use Pawprint on Changli — her kit focuses on skill damage.

  • Echo Set: Molten Rift

  • Main Echo: Nightmare Inferno Rider

  • Main Stats:

    • 4-cost: Crit

    • 3-cost: Fusion DMG

    • 1-cost: ATK

  • Substats: 110% Energy → Crit → ATK% → Skill DMG → Flat ATK

Heavy skill scaling means you’ll want to lean into % over flat boosts.


Chixia (again) – Two Role Options

Depending on her role, Chixia has two usable paths:

  • Main Set: Molten Rift (Safe Choice)

  • Alt Set: Flaming Clawprint (Experimental)

  • Main Echo: Nightmare Inferno Rider or Lioness of Glory

  • Main Stats:

    • 4-cost: Crit

    • 3-cost: Fusion DMG

    • 1-cost: ATK

  • Substats: ~130% Energy → Crit → ATK% → Flat ATK

The Clawprint build is speculative. Stick to Inferno if unsure.


Calcharo – Static Meta Pick

Calcharo remains reliable with no need to alter builds:

  • Echo Set: Void Thunder

  • Main Echo: Nightmare Thundering Memphis

  • Main Stats:

    • 4-cost: Crit

    • 3-cost: Electro DMG

    • 1-cost: ATK

  • Substats: ~115% Energy → Crit → ATK% → Liberation DMG

Same as earlier — stable and proven.


Carla – Glacio Entry Point

New players starting Glacio setups will likely start with Carla.

  • Echo Set: Frosty Resolve

  • Main Echo: Sentry Construct

  • Main Stats:

    • 4-cost: Crit

    • 3-cost: Glacial DMG

    • 1-cost: ATK

  • Substats:

    • With Signature Weapon: ~110% Energy

    • Without It: ~130% Energy

    • Crit → Skill DMG → ATK%

Glacial scaling is strong with the right echo pairing.

Sanhua – Still No Changes

Sanhua’s build is the same as it’s always been. She works well with:

  • Echo Set: Moonlight Clouds

  • Main Echo: Impermanence Heron

  • Main Stats:

    • 4-cost: Crit

    • 3-cost: Glacial DMG

    • 1-cost: ATK

  • Substats: Energy not mandatory (~110% is fine) → Crit → ATK% → Liberation DMG

No need to adjust her — she continues to do her job efficiently.


Taoqi – Two Competitive Sets

Taoqi is solid with either of these:

  • Echo Set: Imperion (Better Overall) or Moonlight Clouds

  • Main Echo: Nightmare Lampylumen or Impermanence Heron

  • Main Stats:

    • 4-cost: Crit

    • 3-cost: Glacial DMG

    • 1-cost: ATK

  • Substats: 130% Energy → Crit → ATK% → Basic ATK DMG

Imperion performs slightly better, but Moonlight is close enough if already invested.


Verina – Classic Healer Build

Verina’s healing-focused build has not changed:

  • Echo Set: Rejuvenating Glow

  • Main Echo: Fallacy of No Return or Bellorn

  • Main Stats:

    • 4-cost: Healing Bonus

    • 3-cost: Energy%

    • 1-cost: HP%

  • Substats: Energy → HP% → HP Flat

She's extremely plug-and-play. High energy regen ensures optimal heals.


Yoi – Same as Always

While not a popular pick right now, Yoi’s optimal echo path is:

  • Echo Set: Rejuvenating Glow

  • Main Echo: Fallacy or Bellorn

  • Main Stats:

    • 4-cost: Crit

    • 3-cost: Glacial DMG

    • 1-cost: ATK

  • Substats: Crit → ATK% → Skill DMG

Still niche, but available for those looking to experiment.


Lian – Choose Based on Substats

Lian doesn’t have a strict “best” set — just pick what rolls best for you.

  • Echo Set: Freezing Frost or Lingering Tunes

  • Main Echo:

    • Frost = Lampylumen or Construct

    • Tunes = Mech Abomination

  • Main Stats:

    • 4-cost: Crit

    • 3-cost: Glacial DMG

    • 1-cost: ATK

  • Substats: ~110% Energy → Crit → ATK% → Basic ATK DMG

Go with whichever set gives the best overall stat spread.


Camellia – High Damage Havoc Build

Camellia thrives under proper havoc investment:

  • Echo Set: Havoc Eclipse

  • Main Echo: Nightmare Crownless

  • Main Stats:

    • 4-cost: Crit

    • 3-cost: Havoc DMG

    • 1-cost: ATK

  • Substats:

    • Energy: 110% minimum

    • Crit → ATK% → Basic ATK DMG

She scales well with higher sequences; aggressive setups can use 4411 builds.


Rover (Havoc) – Standard Layout

This variant of Rover follows a stable build:

  • Echo Set: Havoc Eclipse

  • Main Echo: Dreamless

  • Main Stats:

    • 4-cost: Crit

    • 3-cost: Havoc DMG

    • 1-cost: ATK

  • Substats: No hard energy requirements → Crit → ATK% → Basic ATK → Flat ATK

There’s nothing flashy about this version — it simply works.


Canareth – Support or DPS Hybrid

Canareth can be built for utility or DPS based on echo set:

  • Echo Set: Moonlight Clouds (support) or Midnight Veil (DPS support)

  • Main Echo:

    • Moonlight = Impermanence Siren

    • Midnight = Lurelier

  • Main Stats:

    • 4-cost: Crit

    • 3-cost: Havoc DMG or Energy

    • 1-cost: ATK

  • Substats: 130% Energy → Crit → Basic ATK → ATK%

Energy investment is crucial for keeping uptime on skills.


Rou – Flexible Build Option

Rou can flex between support and hybrid:

  • Echo Set: Midnight Veil (if Havoc team) or Moonlight Clouds

  • Main Echo:

    • Midnight = Nightmare Impermanence Tan

    • Moonlight = Regular Impermanence Siren

  • Main Stats:

    • 4-cost: Crit

    • 3-cost: Havoc DMG

    • 1-cost: ATK

  • Substats: 70%+ Crit Rate → Crit DMG → ATK% → Heavy ATK DMG

Energy not mandatory; the key is high uptime on burst cycles.


Danjin – Too Many Echo Sets

Danjin has multiple viable setups. Here’s the quick breakdown:

  • Echo Set:

    • Main DPS = Havoc Eclipse

    • Off-DPS = Midnight Veil

    • Non-Havoc team = Moonlight Clouds

  • Main Echo:

    • Eclipse = Nightmare Crownless

    • Clouds = Regular Impermanence

  • Main Stats:

    • 4-cost: Crit

    • 3-cost: Havoc DMG

    • 1-cost: ATK

  • Substats: Crit → ATK% → Flat ATK → Choose skill/basic depending on build

Adapt echo type based on your main carry — she’s flexible but fragile.

Taoqi (Spectro Variant) – Defensive Hybrid

For defensive or hybrid Taoqi builds:

  • Echo Set: Rejuvenating Glow or Moonlight Clouds

  • Main Echo: Bellorn or Fallacy

  • Main Stats:

    • 4-cost: Crit

    • 3-cost: Defense%

    • 1-cost: Defense Flat

  • Substats: Crit → Defense% → Flat Defense

Only a few builds benefit from her defensively scaled skills, but it's viable.


Aalto (Spectro DPS) – Two Main Paths

Depending on if Aalto is your carry:

  • Echo Set:

    • Main DPS = Eternal Radiance

    • Sub-DPS = Moonlight Clouds

  • Main Echo:

    • Radiance = Capitanius or Nightmare Morning Aikes

    • Clouds = Impermanence Siren

  • Main Stats:

    • 4-cost: Crit

    • 3-cost: Spectro DMG

    • 1-cost: ATK

  • Substats: ~110% Energy → Crit → ATK% → Heavy DMG

Choose the set based on whether he’s the focus or a flex pick.


Zeyuan – Straightforward Spectro Build

Zeyuan only has one real meta path:

  • Echo Set: Eternal Radiance

  • Main Echo: Capitanius

  • Main Stats:

    • 4-cost: Crit

    • 3-cost: Spectro DMG

    • 1-cost: ATK

  • Substats: 110% Energy → Crit → ATK% → Heavy DMG

His output is strong, and the build is uncomplicated.

    • 4-cost: Crit

    • 3-cost: Spectro DMG

    • 1-cost: ATK

  • Main Echo: Fiery

  • Main Stats:

    • 4-cost: Crit DMG

    • 3-cost: Energy%

    • 1-cost: HP%

  • Main Stats:

    • 4-cost: Crit Rate or Healing Bonus

    • 3-cost: Energy%

    • 1-cost: ATK%

🔚 Conclusion

The 2.4 update for Wuthering Waves brought significant changes to how echo sets interact with each character. Whether you're min-maxing for DPS, optimizing your supports, or fine-tuning healing output, understanding echo synergy is key to getting the most out of your units. Prioritize energy regeneration based on role, focus your main stats on damage or healing types, and always adapt based on your team comps. As more characters and echoes are introduced, expect further changes — but for now, this guide gives you a rock-solid foundation for echo optimization in 2.4.


❓ FAQs (Plain Text)

Q: What are echo sets in Wuthering Waves?
A: Echo sets are gear combinations that provide stat boosts and effects tailored to each character’s role and element.

Q: How should I prioritize energy stat in echo builds?
A: Energy priority varies. Healers/supports need more (~130–230%), while pure DPS can manage with 110% or even less.

Q: Can I use off-meta echo sets if I don’t have ideal ones?
A: Yes. Many characters can work with secondary sets like Sierra Gale or Moonlight Clouds until you get their optimal set.

Q: What is the 44111 or 43311 echo stat setup?
A: These refer to the cost distribution across echo slots, optimizing how many high-value stats you can stack (e.g., Crit on 4-cost).

Q: Is energy regen still the most important stat?
A: For supports and healers, yes. For DPS, crit and damage modifiers generally come first, unless your skills need frequent uptime.
