In Wuthering Waves 2.3 Phase 2 (May 22–June 11, 2025), the Anniversary Resonator Convene Phase II rerun banner features five 5-star characters: Jinhsi, Changli, Carlotta, Roccia, and Brant, while Ciaccona debuts on her own banner. Choosing who to pull depends on your team, playstyle, and resources.

Here’s a quick guide to each character, their roles, and weapon banners to help you decide.

Jinhsi (Spectro, Broadblade, Main DPS)

Hard-hitting main DPS with big burst damage and simple rotations, great for new players.

Wuthering Waves Jinhsi Ascension Materials Farming

Reason to Pull

  • Deals massive Spectro damage, especially against single targets or multi-wave fights.
  • Easy to gear up and pairs well with supports like Zhezhi or Verina.
  • Her signature weapon, Ages of Harvest, boosts her damage significantly.

Reason to Skip

  • Can overkill in multi-wave fights, wasting damage.
  • If you have Zani (Spectro DPS from Phase 1), resource overlap makes her less necessary.

Changli (Fusion, Sword, Main DPS/Sub-DPS)

Flexible DPS who can carry or deal off-field damage with quick sword attacks.

Unnamed

Reason to Pull

  • Delivers big Fusion damage and synergizes with Fusion teams.
  • Fun, fast playstyle that excels in tough endgame content.
  • Great chance to grab her if you missed her in Version 2.1.

Reason to Skip

  • Need players to learn quick swap to maximize her potential.
  • Her rotations are trickier than Jinhsi’s, less ideal for beginners.

Carlotta (Glacio, Pistols, Main DPS)

Steady Glacio DPS with a pistol-based kit, added in Version 2.0.

Carlotta

Reason to Pull

  • Reliable for single-target and AoE damage, fitting most content. Innate stun on skill make her ideal for tackling hologram bosses.
  • Works well with Zhezhi or Verina for support.
  • Effective against nimble enemies that like zipping around.

Reason to Skip

  • Needs her signature weapon, The Last Dance, to perform at her best.

Roccia (Havoc, Gauntlets, Main DPS)

Close-range Sub DPS with Havoc damage, added in Version 2.1.

Abff4a5d 9c7c 44c5 B0ff 4dd648b833c0

Reason to Pull

  • Good Havoc support for Camellya or Cantarella.
  • AoE grouping makes her perfect for WhiWa

Reason to Skip

  • Gauntlets can feel clunky due to short range.
  • Less versatile than Jinhsi or Changli for varied team setups.

Brant (Fusion, Sword, Main DPS)

Melee DPS with Fusion damage, added in Version 2.1.

4aa3f756 Caa5 4b36 A072 80850f816fdf

Reason to Pull

  • Cool, fast sword attacks with unique aerial combat focus. Has both shield and heal, providing players with an additional layer of sustain.
  • Synergizes with Fusion supports like Changli or Mortefi.

Reason to Skip

  • Needs very good rolls on gear and supports to shine.

Ciaccona (Aero, Pistols, Sub-DPS/Support)

Off-field damage and support, focusing on Aero Erosion and boosting Aero damage.

Ciaccona

Reason to Pull

  • Applies Aero Erosion with Basic Attacks, Resonance Skill, and Resonance Liberation, enhancing Aero team damage.
  • Increases enemies’ Aero damage taken, great for Aero teams with Jiyan or the upcoming Cartethyia in Version 2.4.
  • Her signature weapon, Woodland Aria (5-star Pistol), improves her support and damage.
  • Fits both free-to-play and high-spending teams with her hybrid role.

Reason to Skip

  • Less useful without other Aero characters.
  • As a Sub-DPS/Support, she’s not ideal if you need a main DPS.

Should You Pull?

  • Go for it if you’re building an Aero team or planning for Cartethyia in Version 2.4. She’s a smart pick for long-term team building.
  • Skip if you lack Aero DPS units or need a main DPS like Jinhsi.

Verdict

Overall, you should focus on main DPS such as Jinhsi, Carlotta, and Changli first, if you haven't gotten them or need DPS characters. Support/Sub DPS characters like Roccia, Brant and Ciaccona have lower priority.

The weapon banner is pretty much the same - it is better to focus on weapons of the main DPS (Jinhsi, Carlotta, and Changli) first.
