Wuthering Waves V2.6-2.7 Pulling Advice

Wuthering Waves 2.5 concludes with players now understanding character strengths. Phase 1 brought Phrolova + Roccia; Phase 2 reruns Cantarella and Brant – both situationally valuable. Cantarella excels with Phrolova via burst damage/chase attacks but suffers highly interruptible and significant DPS loss. Brant anchors Fusion teams, especially for Lupa owners.

But these choices are just the beginning. The real challenge comes in Versions 2.6 and 2.7. Version 2.6 brings the Electro Conductive team (Augusta + Iuno), while 2.7 introduces the Fusion team (Galbrena + Qiuyuan). How should F2P players decide?

1. Version 2.5 Reruns: Patch Holes in Your Roster

Cantarella: Phrolova’s Perfect Partner

Pulling Requirements:

• For collectors: Get her to S2-S3 to unlock her full combat flow as a main DPS.
• From a meta perspective: If you own Phrolova, strongly recommend pulling Cantarella. Phrolova’s Stasis field significantly mitigates Cantarella’s interruption vulnerability and DPS loss.
• Weapon tip: her signature weapon nonessential– the Stringmaster & Rime-Draped Sprouts works great.
• S-chain priority: At S0, she’s vulnerable to interruption causing DPS loss. When resources allow, prioritize S1 (grants interruption resist to optimize rotation).
• Future effect: Version 2.7’s Qiuyuan might join Phrolova teams, but Cantarella remains her best partner now.

 

Brant: Match for Lupa Owners

Pulling Requirements:

• Team strength: conmbine with Lupa to dual / triple Fusion team. In Tower of Adversity, it ranks second only to Cartethyia / Zani comps. In Whimpering Wastes, it trails just behind Phrolova teams – a true all-rounder.
• NON-NEGOTIABLE: S0R1 MINIMUM! S0 spear attacks get interrupted constantly
• Lupa owners: Pulling Brant significantly boosts Fusion team's ceiling
• Resource Warning:
  • If only expanding Fusion roster → WAIT for Galbrena (True Fusion DPS in 2.7).
  • Forcing Brant without Lupa = crippled teams + demanding rotations".
• Casual player alert: Version 2.5 last only 35 days – you’ll get 40 free pulls max in Phase 2. Skip these reruns with fully prepare for 2.6-2.7 unless you own Phrolova/Lupa!

 

2. Version 2.6: New Electro Conductive Team

Augusta:

• Time-Freezing Shield balances survival + damage.
• Team-flexible: Best with Iuno, but works with Mortefi.

 

Iuno:

• Beginner-friendly: Aerial combat dodges ground hits + heals
• Highly versatile:
  • Support for Jiyan / Roccia
  • Main DPS with Jianxin / Ciaccona

 

3. Version 2.7: Fusion’s Last Hope

Galbrena:

• Fusion Team Main-DPS: First true Fusion Main DPS – solves Fusion teams’ core DPS shortage. Galbrena will likely synergize perfectly with Qiuyuan's buffs.
• Lupa owners win BIG: Lupa's +59% Fusion DMG Bonus + RES shred perfectly enables Galbrena → early investors get massive payoff.
• Investment Warning: Triple-Fusion (Lupa + Brant + Galbrena).

 

Qiuyuan:

Qiuyuan is an Aero support who could be a good fit for Phrolova or the new Fusion team.

 

4. Pulling Strategy: Version Resources & Advice

Resource Income:

F2P players	~96 pulls/version
Monthly Pass owners	~119 pulls/version
Premium Pass owners	~128 pulls/version

→ Version 2.5 (35 days) subtracts ~7 pulls

 

Smart Pulling Principles:

Full Team Cost: ~310 pulls (Main DPS S0R1 + Sub-DPS S0R0) → Difficultly for F2P players to pull both 2.6+2.7 teams!

Priority Order:

• Main DPS S0R1 FIRST (e.g., Augusta / Galbrena)
• Sub-DPS can use 4-star substitutes (e.g., Iuno → Mortefi; Qiuyuan skippable if no Fusion team)

Power Tier Note: New DPS teams (Augusta or Galbrena) ≈ Cartethyia or Zani tier

 

Player-Specific Roadmap

Phrolova Owners

• Priority Pull: Cantarella S0R0 + Stringmaster/Rime-Draped Sprouts
• Core Strategy: Skip Brant entirely → Target Iuno for Electro Conductive or Phrolova teams

Lupa owners

• Priority Pull: Brant S0R1 (MUST!)
• Core Strategy: Skip Cantarella → Save for Galbrena + Qiuyuan

For Tower of Adversity

• Priority Pull: Augusta S0R1
• Core Strategy: Leverage time-freezing shield for speedruns → Delay Iuno for later reruns

For Whimpering Wastes

• Priority Pull: Galbrena S0R1
• Core Strategy: Avoid Electro Conductive’s spawn bug → Prioritize Fusion team versatility

F2P/Low-Budget Players

• Priority Pull: ONE Main DPS S0R1 (Augusta or Galbrena)
• Core Strategy: Choose either Electro Conductive or Fusion team. Postpone sub-DPS (Iuno/Qiuyuan) for reruns

 

Conclusion

Prioritize ONE core team based on your existing roster – skip 2.5 reruns unless you own Phrolova/Lupa. Choose between 2.6's Electro Conductive team (Augusta S0R1) for Tower dominance or 2.7's Fusion team (Galbrena S0R1) for multi-mode versatility, but never both on F2P budgets. Remember: Main DPS + signature weapon (S0R1) is mandatory, while sub-DPS like Iuno/Qiuyuan can wait for reruns or use 4-star substitutes.
