Aalto Overview
Aalto, an enigmatic Information Broker, is renowned for his elusive demeanor and inviting smile. It is said that he can provide any information, as long as the price is right. Recognizing his exceptional skills in gathering intelligence, Aalto was invited to join the enigmatic organization known as the Black Shores, which operates from a secluded island.
Both Aalto and Encore now serve as Consultants for the Black Shores, forming an inseparable and lively duo during their missions. Despite his initially timid nature, Aalto’s true character shines through as a dependable and attentive individual.
Aalto Review
Aalto is a 4-Star Aero character in Wuthering Waves.
A DPS character that relies on continuously using Basic Attack and Resonance Skill, with high survivability due to the presence of clones.
After using Basic Attack and Resonance Skill to generate Mist, aerial attacks are typically used to quickly acquire Forte Circuit Energy.
Additionally, due to the fast movement speed in stealth mode, the Open World experience is decent.
Pros
- High survivability and a good experience in Open World.
Cons
- In high-pressure environments, constantly adjusting positions can make it difficult to quickly accumulate Forte Circuit Energy, affecting damage output efficiency.
- Aalto’s skill set deals decent damage to single targets but lacks AoE capabilities. Burst potential is also lacking.

Aalto Team Comp
Aalto Premium Best Team
Sub DPS
The main damage type of Jiyan is Heavy Attack Damage. Morfeti’s Outro Skill provides Heavy Attack DMG Deepen, making Morfeti the best teammate for Jiyan. Additionally, Morfeti has off-field coordinated attacks, offering substantial output compared to other Sub DPS options.
Aalto provides Aero DMG Deepen, making Aalto a good Sub DPS in this team comp. However, Aalto’s energy insufficiency can affect the team’s overall damage output.
Healer
Verina’s healing abilities and Concerto Energy acquisition abilities are both greater than Baizhi’s, making her the preferred healer character. Verina’s Inherent Skill provides a one-time death immunity effect. Baizhi also has a similar effect that is even better, but it requires unlocking at Sequence 5.
Verina’s healing amount is based on her ATK, so Verina has a certain degree of damage output. If you build it well, her damage should not be underestimated.
Verina’s Inherent Skill can provide a 20% attack buff to the entire team, while Baizhi can only provide a 15% attack buff to a single character.

Calcharo
Calcharo primarily uses the enhanced Basic Attack and enhanced Forte Circuit after using Resonance Liberation for damage output. In the series of damage output after using Resonance Liberation, the damage ratio between Resonance Liberation and Basic Attack is approximately 2.2:1. Additionally, the Resonance Skill can be released at intervals, allowing full enjoyment of the permanent five-star weapon’s effects.
After using Resonance Liberation, Calcharo gains a new Basic Attack model. The multiplier for this attack is related to the level of Resonance Liberation, but the main proportion of his damage comes from the “Death Messenger” in Forte Circuit. Resonance Skill can be used during the Liberation period to interrupt Basic Attack combos, quickly generate Forte Circuit Energy, and trigger “Death Messenger”. The main components of his damage output consist of these three elements.
Encore
mong the permanent 5-star Fusion DPS characters, Encore enters an enhanced state and changes attack mode after activating Resonance Liberation. The main source of Encore’s damage comes from Basic Attacks after activating Resonance Liberation, not the Forte Circuit. Additionally, the cooldowns for Encore’s regular Resonance Skill and the enhanced Resonance Skill during Resonance Liberation are independent of each other.
In Encore’s damage output after activating Resonance Liberation, Basic Attack damage accounts for nearly 70%. Choosing Sanhua as a teammate can maximize her damage potential.
Sanhua
Although Sanhua has burst capabilities, the overall damage is not high. In Sanhua’s output cycle, Resonance Skill damage and Resonance Liberation account for approximately 51% and 41%, respectively.
Although Resonance Skill damage is slightly higher, there is a risk of missing in actual combat. Sanhua has a unique Forte Circuit trigger mechanism similar to rhythm games, and hitting enemies can cause a slight time-stopping effect.
Sanhua has the fastest Concerto Energy and Resonance Energy acquisition efficiency in the game, making it the most versatile and best-feeling support in the current version. After using the Intro Skill, Sanhua only needs 3 seconds to fully charge Concerto Energy and trigger QTE, activating the Main DPS for output. Our team composition recommendations for various characters also show Sanhua’s high versatility.
