Encore: Encore is perfect hybrid DPS in terms of being able to dish out both ranged and melee attacks, since she transforms into a melee powerhouse during her Ultimate, dealing most of her damage during this period. Her Ultimate combo is straightforward and forgiving, making her easier to play than characters like Calcharo on that regard, though she will have hard time parrying, which might be quite a deal-breaker for some players. Encore boasts one of the highest single-target DPS windows, but as of now, she does not have a well-synergizing sub-dps partner, except Sanhua. In short, Encore is a solid DPS and is highly effective in the Tower of Adversity, but her ideal team composition is a little lacking due to the existing roster of characters. DPS wise, she is similar to Calcharo, and ultimately players should pick either one of them depending on their preference in play style, or character design, if they are intending to pick a DPS character as their priority.

Combat also feels snappy and responsive in Wuthering Waves , with well-made character movement a crucial element of the flow of battle. Dodges felt especially pinpoint and rewarding, and combat also features a parry system where a unit can time their attack to respond to an enemy's vulnerability indicator during their own lunge - doing so results in damage and a stagger that can set up the next chain of a combo. The hands-on was a little too short to really go in-depth on these systems so it's difficult to ascertain exactly how the interplay between dodging, parrying, and swapping units really flows, but what was on display felt intuitive and

Jianxin: Jianxin is a character that gives the good description of jack of all trades, master of none, being a hybrid character who balances support and damage roles, offering diverse team benefits. She excels in sustain, making her quite useful in overworld content combined with her AoE attacks that are excellent for defeating weaker groups of enemies. However, her versatility is both a strength and a weakness. Jianxin requires a lot of field time, making her not the best teammate for most of the existing primary DPS characters. She is prone to interruptions, struggles with high energy costs, and lacks the damage output needed for endgame content. Generally, for players who are interested in completing the story, exploring the world, and farm in overworld, over tackling end game content as of now, she is an excellent pick. Priority:

In the early stages of the journey, strategic character development is especially important t to overcoming the trials that await while resources are limited. Players should identify a select few characters that align with their playstyle and team composition, and devote your resources towards their growth and enhancement. It is recommended that players focus on characters like Rover, and Baizhe as well as the first standard banner characters they obtain through beginner convenes, as well as any Limited Character they are aiming

The unique part about this game's world bosses is that they can give you a first clear reward, which includes 500 Union EXP for each boss. You can get these rewards by simply defeating the boss , and you don't have to spend Waveplate. Hence, this is one of the best sources for getting higher Union Level during the early sta

Boss design also feels like it will be a rewarding element of Wuthering Waves . We got to try a few different difficulty levels and while the first one was fairly easy, only requiring a few well-timed dodges to set up brutally efficient combos, the very next difficulty element resulted in a team wipe after an ill-timed party member swap. It's refreshing to have combat in this genre that feels sufficiently challenging without being completely over-the-top , and early impressions make it feel like Kuro Games has managed to strike that elusive bala

That's an encouraging sign for a fledgling live service game that has to compete for time with well-established titles in the same space. I'm optimistic Wuthering Waves can entice players early - there's enough variation in its game world, its compelling combat systems, and it's another open-world ARPG with an exciting hook - but launch will certainly be a make-or-break time for the game. **Overall, the hands-on experience with the game definitely cements the fact that Wuthering Waves is a game to watch and an exciting design within the action RPG gacha ecosystem

You can get used to the combat and attack sequence in the slg game story guide after a little practice, but they won't be of any use if you don't know what your enemies can do. As you reach different areas and move around the map, you'll find various enemies belonging to different groups . Each one of these enemy types has something special about t

While attending the Game Developers Conference 2024, Screen Rant was able to participate in a hands-on demonstration of a newer build of Wuthering Waves . Following a brief demonstration of mechanics from a member of the Kuro Games team, we were able to play through a brief combat section against a boss, an open-world puzzle, and some exploration of one of the game's settlements. Make no mistake: this game is unabashedly attempting to capitalize on the space Genshin Impact carved out for the genre years ago. But it does it well enough that it feels like it has its own identity,
