Whimpering Wastes Guide - Team Builds & Strategies (August 4)

Master the August 4 Whimpering Wastes reset with precision! This guide breaks down new Golden Tokens, stage-specific teams, and combat tactics for the August reset. Learn optimal strategies to dominate every challenge and secure max rewards.

1. New Golden Tokens Analysis

Whispers from Dim Abyss

• +25% Fusion DMG.
• Ult cast restores 2 Energy (max 2 stored).
• On ult hit, consumes 1 Energy to trigger AoE blast: 1500% total Fusion DMG to nearby targets.
• CD: 2s per trigger.

 

Hymn to the End (New)

• Effect: Heavy Attack DMG +50%│Electro DMG + 50%.
• Character Synergy: Optimized for new Electro Conductive element character "Augusta" (v2.6). Current Electro Conductive DPS Xiangli Yao only benefits from Electro DMG boost.
• Strategic Value: Transitional Token for Electro teams until Augusta's release.

 

Sail Against the Storm (New)

• Echo Skill: +20% Havoc DMG ×2 stack (Unique Echo per cast).
• 2 stacks: Next hit triggers AoE blast - 800% Havoc DMG to nearby targets.
• CD: 5s per trigger.
• Optimal Teams:
  • Phrolova Echo teams (top tier)
  • Traditional Dark teams (Camellya / Roccia comps work but require precise execution).

3. Infinite Torrents Team recommendation

·Environment Report: Enemies take +50% DMG (easier trigger vs. last season).

Suspected Adjustment: Enemy HP likely increased (scores 200-500 lower with same teams at last season).

·Recommended Team:

1st Half
Phrolova Havoc (BEST!)	Phrolova	Cantarella	Roccia
	Sail Against the Storm
Cantarella Havoc	Cantarella	Roccia	Shorekeeper
	Sail Against the Storm
Camellya Havoc	Camellya	Roccia	Shorekeeper
	Sail Against the Storm

First-phase teams ignore Resonance Energy, enabling quick swaps to pass Outro Buffs to DPS.

Optimal: Phrolova (synergizes with Sail Against the Storm). Other teams must use Echo Skill before combos to max Havoc DMG.

 

2nd Half
Premium Mono Fusion (BEST!)	Changli	Brant	Lupa
	Whispers from Dim Abyss
Semi-Premium Fusion	Changli Brant	Encore	Lupa
	Whispers from Dim Abyss
Brant-Li Quickswap	Changli	Brant	Shorekeeper
	Whispers from Dim Abyss
Jiyan Heavy ATK	Jiyan	Mortefi	Shorekeeper
	Hymn to the End
Jiyan Heavy Erosion	Jiyan	Ciaccona	Shorekeeper
	Hymn to the End

Second-half teams focus on Fusion units, with Jiyan teams utilizing Heavy Attack-focused Hymn to the End. Jiyan benefits from starting at 100% Resonance Energy here.

Optimal choice: Premium Fusion (Lupa core), maximizing Whispers from Dim Abyss bonuses. Lupa is ideal but not essential.

 

Other Team Options
Zani Spectro	Zani	Phoebe	Shorekeeper
	Reveler Captain's Seal
Camellya Havoc	Camellya	Roccia	Shorekeeper
	Absolver Captain's Seal
Cartethyia Erosion	Cartethyia	Ciaccona	Rover (Aero)
	Reveler Captain's Seal
Xiangli Yao Electro	Xiangli Yao	Yinlin	Shorekeeper
	Plunderer Captain's Seal

Even without Golden Tokens, generic Exquisite Tokens remain viable. While SSS Rank demands flawless execution, claiming all rewards via S Rank is achievable.

Conclusion

Golden Tokens: Prioritize Whispers from Dim Abyss (Fusion) and Sail Against the Storm (Havoc) for current meta. Hymn to the End awaits Augusta (v2.6) for full potential.

Team Essence: Phrolova Havoc dominates first-phase, while Premium Fusion (Lupa core) excels in second-phase.

Clear Tip: SSS rank demands precision, but S rank is achievable even with Exquisite Tokens.
