Although not an optimal pick against foes who cannot be juggled or stay within his reach while in the air, Lingyang’s ability to deal high damage while staying mobile earned him the title of the best Glacio main DPS inWuthering Waves.
But as you might imagine, he needs the right build and team to put on a performance worthy of his fame. To help you show all the might of the Liondance Troupe, here’s the best Lingyang build inWuthering Waves.
The best weapon for Lingyang in Wuthering Waves
As you might imagine, the best weapon for Lingyang is the 5-starAbyss Surges. The only 5-star gauntlet in the game, the weapon will increase his Energy Regen by 12.8% —and thus the availability of his Resonance Liberation buffs. Abyss Surges will also provide him with a 10% Basic Attack DMG Bonus increase after he hits targets with his Resonance Skill, and vice versa. The DMG buffs will last for eight seconds and are independent. All of the values here are related to the weapon at Rank 1.
Best 4-star and F2P weapons for Lingyang
The best 4-star weapon for Lingyang is the Battle Pass-exclusiveStonard. The weapon clinches the spot thanks to its Crit Rate substat. Stonard will also provide him with an 18% Resonance Liberation DMG boost after he performs his Skill (R1). I know the latter won’t help much, but is better than nothing.
If you don’t plan on getting the BP, the best 4-star pick for Lingyang is Hollow Mirage. The weapon has a high attack value (412 plus a 30.3% ATK% substat) and will allow Lingyang to get a 9% ATK and DEF buff after performing his Resonance Liberation. Once active, the value of the buff will decrease by 3% with each hit received by him. To recap, here are the best weapons for Lingyang, as well as the best F2P pick for him as an extra:
Best Sonata and Echoes for Lingyang
The best Sonata for Lingyang is a5-echo Freezing Frost. The Sonata feels handmade for him and will offer a 10% Glacio DMG Bonus boost. You will also be able to increase the buff by a total of 30% by performing Basic and Heavy Attacks. Echo-wise,Lampylumen Myriadis my main pick for the main slot given its ability to offer an up to 12% boost in both Glacio and Resonance Skill DMG. For the remaining spots. I recommend going with two Elites and two Common echoes.
Best stats and substats
I recommend going with Crit Rate as the main stat for the Lampylumen Myriad. This is a must, as Lingyang demands that you raise the stat to at least 50%. For the remaining echoes, go with two pairs of Resonance DMG Bonus (in this case Glacio) and ATK. For substats, prioritize Crit Rate, Crit DMG, ATK, and Basic Attack DMG Bonus, in that order.
Best Teams for Lingyang in Wuthering Waves
The best team for Lingyang inWuthering Waveshas him as its main DPS andSanhuaas its main support/sub-DPS. Sanhua is a game changer for Lingyang, as her 38% Basic Attack DMG Deepen buff takes his damage to a whole new plane. If you don’t have her,Mortefican fill in and do okay given his ability to buff Heavy Attacks and deal off-the-field DMG.
For the remaining spot in the composition, we will go with eitherBaizhiorVerinaas our healer. Keep in mind that Verina is by far the best between them, as she will provide significantly more healing while also offering more buffs. She can also revive teammates while at RS0.
