In Update 2.3 of Wuthering Waves, Modifiers have become an essential new item for optimizing Echo.
Modifiers allow players to change the Main Stat of an Echo before leveling it up, providing more flexibility in character builds.
However, since the number of available Modifiers is very limited, their use needs to be calculated carefully.
Here’s a complete guide on how to effectively obtain and use Modifiers.
What Are Modifiers in Wuthering Waves?
Modifiers are new items introduced in Update 2.3. Their function is to change the Main Stat of an Echo that has not been upgraded or enhanced.
With Modifiers, players have the opportunity to improve their favorite Echo before investing resources to level it up.
Important Points About Modifiers:
- Only Echoes with 0 upgrades or 0 levels can be modified.
- One Modifier can only be used for a single change.
- Only the Main Stat can be changed, while the Sub-stats remain the same.
- The new Main Stat will still follow logical limits based on the type of Echo (for example, a 4-Cost Echo cannot receive an Elemental DMG Bonus as a Main Stat).
How to Use Modifiers
Using a Modifier is quite simple. Here are the steps:
- Open the Terminal in the game.
- Go to the Data Bank menu.
- Select the Data Modify menu.
- Choose the Echo you want to modify.
- Ensure that the Echo has not been upgraded at all. If the Echo has been enhanced or its level is above 0, the Modifier cannot be used.
- After the modification process is complete, the Main Stat of the Echo will change to a new random stat that is still relevant to the type of Echo.
Since Modifiers are very limited, it is advisable to use them only on Echoes that you truly want to optimize for your main team.
How to Obtain Modifiers
Modifiers are relatively rare items and are only available through a few methods:
| Method | Description |
|---|---|
| Purchase in Store | Can be bought using Afterglow Coral, but not recommended as Coral is very valuable. |
| Event Rewards | Some special events provide Modifiers as limited-time rewards. |
| Battlepass (Pioneer Podcast) | Available as one of the rewards in both Free and Premium tracks. |
Relying on events and the battlepass is the best way to collect Modifiers without sacrificing valuable resources like Afterglow Coral.
Important Considerations About Modifiers
Here are some important things to keep in mind before using a Modifier:
- A Modifier can only be used once for a single Echo.
- There is no undo feature, so make sure the selected Echo is worth modifying.
- Modifiers only change the Main Stat and do not affect Sub-stats.
- The new Main Stat is still limited by the base type of the Echo, so not all stats may appear on all types of Echoes.
By understanding these limitations, players can be more strategic in choosing when and where to use Modifiers for optimal results.
Conclusion
Modifiers are a very useful tool for improving the Main Stat of your favorite Echoes in Wuthering Waves, especially before the upgrade process.
Since the number of Modifiers is very limited, it is recommended to use them only on Echoes that are truly important in your main team composition.
Focus on obtaining Modifiers from special events and the battlepass, and use them carefully to maximize your character’s potential in the game.
