Having three banners available in the same version in Wuthering Waves can be challenging for players, especially the F2P ones. Phoebe, Brant, and Changli are all excellent characters who compete at the highest levels of the game’s meta.

Although Phoebe and Brant are new characters, Changli is having her rerun banner in Wuthering Waves. Funny enough, all three can form a solid team together, with Phoebe as the main DPS, Changli as a Sub-DPS, and Brant operating as their healer. But when it comes to players wondering if it’s worth pulling for Phoebe, Brant, or Changli, here’s a comparison of the three.

Phoebe

wuthering waves is pheobe worth it

Phoebe is a main DPS who can alter her gameplay to operate as a Sub-DPS and apply tons of Spectro Frazzle. As a main DPS, Phoebe enters her Absolution state and can work with any team, since all she needs is some decent buffers and the Spectro Rover to build Spectro Frazzles on enemies. Meanwhile, her Confession state focuses more on building Spectro Frazzle, so her teammates should be those who can take advantage of it. So far, only Spectro Rover can work with this elemental debuff, so it's best to keep Phoebe as a main DPS who focuses on her Absolution state.

Wuthering Waves: Phoebe Team Composition Guide

Phoebe team comp in Wuthering Waves can either support her role as a main DPS or include Resonators that work around Spectro Frazzle.

Since Phoebe can only operate as a main DPS, it’s essential to build her with as much Crit as possible, in addition to ATK% and Spectro DMG. She’s also a Rectifier user, which makes finding a decent Crit 5-star weapon even harder. Thankfully, she's strong enough to go against top-tier units in Wuthering Waves even on F2P setups. As for her Echo set, Phoebe’s build is straightforward and only requires the Eternal Radiance set with Nightmare Mourning Aix being her main Echo.

Is Phoebe Worth It?

Pull for Phoebe if:

  • You want an amazing main DPS, especially from the Spectro attribute
  • Don’t want to bother with building a team around her
  • You want to invest in her weapon
  • You have Eternal Radiance or want to farm for it
  • Want to pull for the next unit who will pop her Spectro Frazzles

Brant

wuthering waves is brant worth it

Brant is a decent DMG dealer who excels as a healer in Wuthering Waves. His ability to buff Fusion DMG alongside Resonance Skill DMG through his Outro Skill makes him an ideal Support for Changli. He can even complement her playstyle by offering a variety of situations where you can quick-swap between the two.

So, if you already have Changli, Brant is a must-pull to increase both characters’ performance. Brant can still pair with other characters, but can’t at all have the synergy he has with Changli in Wuthering Waves.

Brant heavily relies on his Energy Regen stat to do everything in his kit, from healing to dealing DMG. This is exceptionally good for a character like him, since he’ll be able to cast his Resonance Liberation more often. Not only that, but Energy Regen is mostly available on 4-star weapons, which makes him very F2P-friendly. Additionally, Brant can work with Rejuvenating Glow, Moonlit Clouds, and Tidebreaking Courage, giving you many options and an easier time building him.

On the other hand, if you want him to deal DMG after he casts his Resonance Liberation, then you need to invest more time finding him a decent set with good Echoes that have a large Crit value.

Is Brant Worth It?

Pull for Brant if:

  • You want a healer with good DPS potential
  • Have Changli and want a good Support unit for her
  • You don’t want to invest in his weapon
  • You want a character that is easy to build

Changli

wuthering waves is changli worth it

Changli is a Sub-DPS who shines in quick-swapping teams in Wuthering Waves. From her Outro Skill, she is best paired with other Fusion characters who are able to take advantage of her large DMG buff. Currently, only Encore is viable to make use of this, but both Encore and Changli are tricky to play, making it difficult to master.

Wuthering Waves: Encore Build Guide

Encore is a Fusion character in Wuthering Waves who fights with her sheep in combat.

Like any other DPS in Wuthering Waves, Changli needs Crit value, ATK, and Fusion DMG in her build in order to dominate the battlefield. This means Changli needs 5-star weapons and heavy farming for Echoes to find the right main and Sub-stats. You can still play Changli without much investment, and she’ll do good, but not as well when she’s ready with all the shiny Crits and buffs.

Is Changli Worth It?

Pull for Changli if:

  • You want a Sub-DPS who can greatly buff her team
  • Want to pull for Brant or a future Fusion DPS
  • You want to invest in her weapon
  • You want to farm for her Echo set
