As Wuthering Waves gears up for Version 2.8, excitement is building around two highly anticipated new Resonators: the 5-star Havoc Broadblade wielder Chisa and the 4-star Electro Rectifier support Buling. Leaks suggest Chisa will shine as a hybrid DoT support-healer with innovative debuff mechanics, while Buling positions herself as an accessible F2P-friendly healer and buffer, often compared to a "budget Shorekeeper." With their banners expected to drop soon, now's the perfect time to pre-farm materials and hit the ground running.

Pre-Farm Materials for Chisa

To fully ascend Chisa to Level 90 and max her Forte Circuits (skills), stockpile these items. Prioritize weekly bosses and repeatable farm routes.

Ascension Materials

These are required to level Chisa from 1 to 90.
