Zhezhi Materials (Ascension, Forte, Skill Level-Up)…

Zhezhi is a 5-Star Glacio Rectifier Resonator and a wandering painter in Wuthering Waves, known for her quiet and shy demeanor. Despite her reserved nature, she is extremely dedicated to her craft, showcasing her talent through various artistic abilities during combat.

To ensure Zhezhi's effectiveness in battle, players need to gather various materials around Solaris-3 to unlock and enhance her levels, skills, and passives. A key resource for her upgrades is Howler Cores, which are required in multiple rarities for all of Zhezhi's enhancements. Fortunately, Zhezhi's materials are easily accessible in Wuthering Waves and do not require players to reach Mt. Firmament.

Zhezhi's passives are incredibly important in enhancing not only her own damage but also that of her allies. As a sub-DPS, Zhezhi's Outro Skill amplifies the next Resonator's Resonance Skill DMG and provides 15 Resonance Energy. Additionally, her other Inherent Skill, Dash the Brush, grants her a stacking ATK buff, further boosting the damage of her Inklit Spirits, even when she is off-field.
