Echoes are one of the pillars that make up the character building process in Wuthering Waves. These are essentially the game's version of item sets that provide stat bonuses to characters, making them significantly stronger when properly equipped.

Like the majority of gacha games, farming Echoes involves plenty of luck and patience, but if you want to explore Wuthering Waves' post-apocalyptic world, you're in for a good time. Here are all the ways to farm Echoes as well as the EXP materials needed to level them up.

How To Farm Echoes In Wuthering Waves

There are two main ways to get echoes in the game: hunting in the open world, or farming Tacet Fields. The first is great for target farming specific Echoes, while the other provides a more convenient way to complete Echo Sets and earn materials for Echo EXP. We'll be covering both in this guide.

If you're wondering how to get gold Echoes in Wuthering Waves , you'll first need to get your Data Bank to level 15. Then, all Echoes will have a chance to drop as gold versions of themselves.

Open-World Echo Farming

The best way new players can get Echoes is to hunt monsters in the open world. You can either explore on your own and beat every non-human enemy you see, or you can target-farm specific ones. You can find monsters in the world by going to the Echo Gallery of your Data Bank.

All Tacet Discord enemies have a 20% base chance of leaving an Echo behind when defeated, and you can keep hunt them down until there's nothing left to hunt on your world. Keep in mind that there is an Echo Pity system in Wuthering Waves that will help you get the Echoes you want more often.

All Tacet Discord bosses can be farmed for their Echoes even without claiming their rewards. They respawn shortly after being defeated, and you don't need to teleport away from their arenas for them to reappear.

Tacet Fields

Once you make enough progress through the main quest line, you'll eventually unlock Tacet Fields, which are this game's version of Artifact Domains from Genshin Impact. Farming Tacet Fields is more convenient than open-world hunting because it won't have you running from one place to another. Also, each Tacet Field drops Echoes from two specific sets, which is great if you really want to get a full Rejuvenating Glow or Moonlit Clouds set as soon as possible.

The downside to Tacet Field farming is, of course, the Waveplate consumption. You need 60 Waveplates to collect your rewards, which means you'll only be able to farm four fields a day by default. On the bright side, Tacet Fields also drop Echo EXP materials, allowing you to level up the Echoes you get.

Buying Echo EXP materials in Wuthering Waves

Tacet Field farming is going to be your main way of farming Echo EXP. You can challenge them as many times as you'd like per day, though you can only get their rewards if you spend Waveplates on them. Enemies that spawn during Tacet Field challenges will not drop Echoes, and non-leveled Echoes will not give any EXP either.

If you're all out of Waveplates, the next best thing you can do is to purchase Echo EXP materials from stores, including:

  • The Points Shop in the in-game store
  • The Illusive Realms store
  • The Souvenir Store in Jinzhou

Wuthering Waves: Havoc Rover Team Composition Guide

Havoc Rover can be unlocked during the course of the main story in Wuthering Waves. Here is how to build a team around them.

The currency needed to purchase things in the Points Shop can be earned by completing Tower of Adversity and Tactical Hologram challenges. Meanwhile, the currency for the Depths of Illusive Realms store is earned by simply completing any difficulty of that activity. As for the Jinzhou Souvenir Store, you'll need Wood Textured Shards, a type of currency obtained by opening chests and Tidal Heritages, or completing challenges.

These secondary sources are limited, however. Points Shop items refresh monthly, and it's unsure if the Illusive Realms reward store will refresh. Souvenir Store items are likely finite, and once you buy all of them, you might not have anything left to purchase.
