When it comes to DPS in Version 1.0 of Wuthering Waves, Calcharo’s arguably the most effective damage dealer. Playing him requires a careful dance where you’llconstantly be using attacks to generate both Cruelty and Killing Intent, expending both resources whenever possible to deal pummeling combos that’ll knock large chunks off boss health bars. Above all else, you’ll want to learn the ins and outs of Calcharo’s Resonance Liberation skillPhantom Etching, as he’s quite reliant on it to maximise damage output.
Speaking of Phantoms, studying how to use the dark echoes that Calcharo leaves behind with some of his attacks is also pivotal. Pay attention in particular to his Outro SkillShadowy Raid, which will come in handy when tagging Calcharo out of the arena. The Phantom left behind will go berserk as soon as your next Resonator enters the field, dealing stunning arrays of damage and giving you time to potentially use a support character like Verina to buff Calcharo’s next attack bursts.
Calcharo shines when he’s taking on single targets, as most of his skillset focuses on one foe. He falters when it comes to crowd control and AoE, which is why we suggest pairing him with a decent Sub DPS like Jianxin. Use Calcharo to massacre bosses, in other words - it’s what this silver-haired devil is best at.
