Wuthering Waves: Shorekeeper Build Guide

In Wuthering Waves, the Shorekeeper is a captivating energy being, distinct from humanity, created to aid the Black Shores during critical moments. As the Guardian of the Black Shores, she possesses unique combat abilities that include a special bonus tailored for the main character. However, her talents extend beyond this, making her an exceptional healer and support character for various Resonators, especially when players adopt the right Shorekeeper build.

Optimal Shorekeeper Build in Wuthering Waves

Best Echo for the Shorekeeper

One of the standout Echoes for the Shorekeeper is the Fallacy of No Return, introduced in version 1.3. When activated, this Echo inflicts damage proportional to the user’s HP, while also providing a 10% Energy Regen boost and a 10% ATK increase for the entire team for 20 seconds. This makes it an ideal choice to enhance the Shorekeeper's supportive role. For those seeking to amplify her damage output, players can hold the Echo Skill to continuously inflict Spectro DMG.

Another excellent support Echo is the Bell-Borne Geochelone. Although it doesn’t deal damage like the Fallacy of No Return, it offers substantial protection and provides a 10% DMG Bonus for the team.

For the Shorekeeper's Echo Set, players can choose between Rejuvenating Glow or Moonlit Clouds, with a strong recommendation for the Rejuvenating Glow due to its capacity to enhance healing and boost the team's ATK by 15%. Meanwhile, Moonlit Clouds excels at increasing both the Shorekeeper's Energy Regen and the next Resonator's ATK by 22.5%.

As the Shorekeeper's abilities scale with HP, it’s advisable to equip either HP or Healing Bonus on her 4-slot. However, utilizing Crit DMG can also enhance her Discernment damage, which is guaranteed to land as a critical hit. For the 3-slot, aim for as much Energy Regen as possible until reaching 250%. Once you exceed this threshold, the Shorekeeper can also utilize Spectro DMG. For the 1-slot, prioritize HP, as ATK isn’t as beneficial for her role.

Recommended Weapons for the Shorekeeper

The ideal weapons for the Shorekeeper in Wuthering Waves should focus on Energy Regen and HP stats. Equipment that enhances Energy or Concerto Energy is also advantageous. Her signature weapon, Stellar Symphony, is the top choice for the Shorekeeper.

Following that, players can consider 4-star options like Comet Flare, Variation, and Rectifier#25. While the 5-star Cosmic Ripples and Rime-Draped Sprouts may not be the best fit, they are still usable if available. For newcomers, the Rectifier of Voyager is the perfect early-game weapon.

Shorekeeper's Forte Leveling Priority

The priority for leveling the Shorekeeper’s skills in Wuthering Waves will vary based on player preferences. If maximizing healing is the goal, players should focus on upgrading her Resonance Liberation and Resonance Skill, while also enhancing the Intro Skill for additional healing. Since Shorekeeper's Discernment DMG scales with the Intro Skill, it’s also beneficial to upgrade this Forte. However, if healing isn’t a priority, players can distribute their upgrades across all skills except for Resonance Liberation.

Here’s a recommended leveling order for the Shorekeeper’s Forte in Wuthering Waves:

1. Intro Skill

2. Forte Circuit

3. Resonance Liberation / Resonance Skill

4. Basic ATK

By following this guide, players can maximize the potential of the Shorekeeper, ensuring she excels as both a healer and a vital support character in Wuthering Waves.
