SP Yangyang Materials: Ascension, Forte & Weapon Materials | Wuthering Waves 3.5

 

SP Yangyang — officially named Xuanling — is arriving in Wuthering Waves 3.5 as the game's very first SP character. A complete reinvention of the original 4-star Aero support, she returns as a 5-star Havoc main DPS with a new playstyle built around heavy attacks and a dramatic transformation mechanic tied to her Resonance Liberation. For players who have followed Yangyang's story since launch, 3.5 is the version they have been waiting for.

In this guide, LDShop covers all SP Yangyang materials you need to prefarm, including her Ascension Materials, Forte Materials, and Signature Weapon Azure of Heaven Materials, so you can hit the ground running the moment 3.5 goes live.

SP Yangyang Materials Total

Here is a full overview of everything you need to raise SP Yangyang from the ground up — ascension, Forte main nodes, bonus stats, and inherent skills combined.

Note: Some 3.5-specific materials have not yet been officially revealed. Items marked with ? will be updated once Kuro Games releases official drip marketing or the version preview stream goes live. Placeholder quantities are based on standard 5-star material curves.

SP Yangyang Ascension Materials

Ascension unlocks SP Yangyang's level cap and full stat growth. These are your highest-priority prefarm targets before 3.5 launches, especially the Boss drop and local specialty, which are confirmed in the beta data.

	Solidarity's Loneflame	46
	LF Autopuppet Kernel	4

How to Get SP Yangyang's Boss Material (Solidarity's Loneflame)

Yangyang materials can be obtained through Myriad Snare: Rustfire Chassis, a new overworld boss introduced in Xuanfang Hold, Mengzhou. Several community and leak sources now agree on this name and location, though it hasn't been officially confirmed by Kuro Games yet. Quantity needed is x46, in line with the standard curve for 5-star ascension.

How to Get SP Yangyang's Local Specialty (Cloudperch Seed)

Yangyang materials can be obtained through Supply Pack, Collection Spots, Overworld Collection, and Huaxu Apothecary

 

SP Yangyang Forte Materials

Forte upgrades are where the bulk of the resource investment goes. These materials cover all main Forte nodes, bonus stat nodes, and inherent skills. Maxing every node takes a significant amount of both Forte crystal materials and Credits, so planning ahead is worthwhile.

Materials		Total
	Skyward Glazed Heart	26
	LF Autopuppet Kernel	25
	MF Autopuppet Kernel	28
	HF Autopuppet Kernel	40
	FF Autopuppet Kernel	57
	Broken Wing Polarizer	25
	Monowing Polarizer	28
	Polywing Polarizer	55
	Layered Wing Polarizer	67
	Shell Credit	2,030,000

How to Get SP Yangyang's Forte Materials (Autopuppet Kernel & Polarizer)

Two separate lines feed her Forte upgrades. The first is the Autopuppet Kernel series, split into four frequency tiers — Low-Frequency, Mid-Frequency, High-Frequency, and Full-Frequency Autopuppet Kernel. These drop from enemies in Xuanfang Hold, and can also be obtained through loot box openings, Echo drops, and the Synthesis system's Purify and Replace functions. The second line is the Polarizer series (Broken Wing, Monowing, Polywing, and Layered Wing Polarizer), farmed from the Forgery Challenge: Fallen Sanctum in Lahai-Roi's Etching Plains — this one is already farmable right now, ahead of the patch.

How to Get SP Yangyang's Weekly Boss Material (Skyward Glazed Heart)

Yangyang materials can be obtained through Thousand-Puppet Pavilion, the new weekly boss and apparently the only Calamity-class enemy added in 3.5. It sits in Xuanfang Hold and won't be farmable until the update goes live and the weekly reset kicks in. 26 copies are needed across all Forte nodes.

Conclusion

SP Yangyang's arrival in Wuthering Waves 3.5 is a landmark moment — the original starter 4-star character finally returning as a 5-star Havoc main DPS with a completely new kit and transformation mechanic. Several of her materials are still pending official confirmation, but the quantities and item types you see here follow confirmed beta data and standard 5-star curves. This guide will be updated as soon as official information is released closer to the July 23 patch.

If you're planning to pull Xuanling and want your resources ready before the banner drops, getting your top-up sorted early is a solid move. LDShop Wuthering Waves top-up lets you grab Astrite at a discount, so you're not scrambling when Phase 1 goes live.

 

FAQ

When does SP Yangyang release in Wuthering Waves?

She is expected to debut in Version 3.5, which is currently estimated to launch around July 9, 2026.

What element is SP Yangyang?

According to multiple leak sources, she is a Havoc character — a complete departure from original Yangyang's Aero element. This aligns with her new aggressive DPS playstyle.

Can I prefarm the 3.5 Boss drop and local specialty now?

Not yet — these are new materials tied to 3.5 content. Once the patch goes live, the Boss and gathering nodes will become available. The quantities (×46 Boss drop, ×60 local specialty) are confirmed from beta data, so you know exactly how much to target on day one.
