Chixia Overview
In Wuthering Waves, Chixia is a 4-Stars Fusion character and uses Pistol during the fight.
Chixia, a young member of the Jinzhou Patrollers, patrols the streets of Jinzhou City, leaving her passionate imprint on every alley she traverses. As a beloved figure within her community, she stands as a shining hero, always prepared to lend a helping hand to those in need.
Chixia Review
Chixia is a 4-Star Fusion character in Wuthering Waves.
Obtained immediately upon entering the game, this character has the highest burst damage among four-star characters and is the best fit for the Battle Pass Pistol.
Using R1 permanent five-star weapons as the 100% standard, a fully leveled Battle Pass Pistol can reach 110%.
In Chixia’s burst damage output, Resonance Skill damage accounts for over 60%.
If the Double-Boom Boom technique is mastered (using Resonance Liberation immediately after the second Boom Boom and then using Boom Boom again after Resonance Liberation ends),
the proportion of Resonance Skill damage can be even higher.
Although the Resonance Liberation Energy requirement is quite high, the Resonance Liberation Multiplier is the highest among four-star characters, making the damage very considerable.
Pros
- Extremely strong burst capability!
- Resonance Chain benefits are among the top for four-star characters.
Cons
- Since the damage mainly focuses on Resonance Skill: Boom Boom, the Resonance Skill: DAKA DAKA! in Forte Circuit takes a long time to execute,
it is very easy to get interrupted by aggressive enemies, so it is crucial to find the right timing for output.
Chixia Active Skills
Chixia Skills Priority










Forte Circuit is the first priority to upgrade as it is the main source of damage and the core mechanism of Chixia. Resonance Liberation provides significant damage, so it should be the second priority. Then, Resonance Skill should be the third to upgrade because most of Chixia’s damage comes from the Resonance Skill damage provided by Forte Circuit. Therefore, the equipment will also focus on enhancing Resonance Skill damage, making Resonance Skill a good source of additional damage.

Inferno Rider can increase Chixia’s Fusion Damage and can also transform into a mount, greatly enhancing the experience of exploring the map.
Havoc Dreadmane‘s skill form and damage are superior to Violet-Feathered Heron.
Although Violet-Feathered Heron’s Counterattack multiplier is decent and it can restore 5 Concerto points, it seems appealing at first glance. However, its practical use is limited as it often leads to standing idle. Compared to Extreme Evasion, which restores 10 Concerto points, it falls short by half. For beginners, it is more recommended to use Havoc Dreadmane to quickly defeat enemies or find openings to deal damage, rather than attempting to use Violet-Feathered Heron‘s Counterattack.

Chixia Team Comp
Chixia Best Team
Main DPS
Sub DPS
Over 60% of Chixia’s damage comes from Resonance Skill types, with Resonance Skill: Boom Boom accounting for a significant portion. Activating Resonance Skill: Boom Boom requires 30 Thermobaric Bullets, which can be easily interrupted when facing highly mobile enemies.
Taoqi can provide a shield and Resonance Skill DMG Deepen, while Rover (Spectro)’s Area of Stasis can create an environment for dealing damage. Yangyang’s Outro Skill can restore Liberation Energy for Chixia. Although Chixia’s Resonance Liberation multiplier is the highest among four-star characters, it requires 150 energy points. Given that Chixia’s energy restoration is not very efficient, players who enjoy using Chixia’s Liberation should pair her with Yangyang to help with energy recovery.
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.
