Wuthering Waves 3.6 Pull Guide: Qingxiao, Jingran & Reruns

✅ 1. Excellent Aerial Combat and Exploration

Qingxiao's aerial combat is one of the biggest highlights of her kit. She can perform extended combos in mid-air, while her sword-riding traversal also makes overworld exploration feel noticeably smoother and more unique.

✅ 2. A New Core Main DPS for Tune Strain Teams

Qingxiao is a clear Tune Strain Main DPS. If your account already has Denia, Mornye, or other compatible Resonators, Qingxiao can slot directly into the on-field DPS position and complete a strong Tune Strain core.

✅ 3. Comfortable Against Elites and Bosses

With a complete team, Qingxiao performs best when she can stay on one target and execute her full rotation. This makes her particularly comfortable against high-HP elites and bosses where her entire damage cycle can be set up consistently.

❌ 1. Heavily Benefits From Dedicated Tune Strain Teammates

It would be an exaggeration to say that Qingxiao is unplayable without Denia and Mornye. A more accurate take is that Denia and Mornye are currently two of Qingxiao's strongest synergistic teammates in premium Tune Strain comps.

She can still function without either one, but team rotations, system-specific buffs, and overall damage ceiling may drop noticeably. In other words, the real cost of building Qingxiao can extend beyond simply pulling her base copy.

❌ 2. Multi-Wave Content Can Disrupt Her Setup

Qingxiao's core damage and Tune Strain setup require some ramp-up. In stages with frequent target swapping, multiple waves of weaker enemies, or constant repositioning, her gameplay may feel less immediate than that of front-loaded burst DPS units.

❌ 3. Echo Substats Still Require Investment

As a Main DPS, Qingxiao still wants strong Crit. Rate, Crit. DMG, ATK, and relevant damage bonuses. While her signature weapon Glint of Clouds can ease some stat-building pressure, pushing her damage ceiling still requires a well-built Echo set.

Qingxiao Resonance Chain & Signature Weapon Pull Advice

Recommended Starting Point: S0R0 or S0R1

Here, S0R1 means S0 Qingxiao + R1 Glint of Clouds.

Qingxiao's core gameplay is already complete at S0. If you have extra resources, her signature weapon is the next upgrade worth considering. Glint of Clouds offers offensive stats suited to Qingxiao and directly complements her Tune Strain gameplay, so for most players the general investment order can be S0 Qingxiao → Signature Weapon → Resonance Chains.

As for S2, S3, and higher Sequences, it is better not to treat them as mandatory stopping points before enough live-server testing is available. Higher Sequences can further improve her damage or mechanics, but for F2P and low-spending players, completing the team is generally more valuable than heavily investing in one character.

✅ 1. Complete Core Kit at S0

Jingran does not rely on higher Resonance Chains simply to unlock his basic gameplay. At S0, he can already perform his main combat rotation.

This is especially important for newer and F2P players: one copy is enough to start playing him properly, without needing extra Sequences just to fix his kit.

✅ 2. Built-In Shielding Gives Him Good Survivability

Jingran's kit revolves partly around shields and his own combat states, giving him more room for error than a traditional glass-cannon DPS in overworld content, Tower of Adversity, and certain high-pressure boss fights.

✅ 3. HP Scaling Gives Him a Different Build Path

Parts of Jingran's kit interact with HP. Combined with his shield mechanics and appropriate Echoes, his stat priorities differ somewhat from conventional ATK-focused Main DPS units.

❌ 1. His Ceiling Still Depends on Teammates and Live-Server Performance

Jingran can function with relatively accessible teams, but that does not mean premium teammates are unimportant.

If you want to maximize his Heavy Attack damage, teammates who provide Heavy Attack buffs, shields, DMG Amplification, or strong Fusion synergy will still matter significantly.

❌ 2. Heavy Attack Gameplay Can Be Rotation-Sensitive

Jingran wants to complete his skill and Heavy Attack sequence cleanly. If you are repeatedly forced to dodge, swap out, or interrupt his combo, his overall damage output can suffer.

Jingran Resonance Chain & Signature Weapon Pull Advice

Recommended Starting Point: S0R0

For most players, securing Jingran's base copy should be the first priority.

Before enough live-server testing is available, it is better not to label his signature weapon as either a "must-pull" or an "easy skip." A more reasonable investment order is:

Jingran S0 ＞ Key Teammates ＞ Signature Weapon / Resonance Chains

If you already own a usable Broadblade for Jingran, you can start with that and decide whether Thousandfold Deliverance is worth pulling after more live-server calculations and testing become available.

Pull Recommendation

If you are committed to playing Qingxiao, or your account is already invested in Tune Strain / Fusion Burst teams, Denia's S0 copy has very high priority.

If you do not play either archetype, however, there is no need to pull her blindly just because support-oriented Resonators tend to age well.

Recommended Investment: S0R0

S0 already provides her key utility. Her signature weapon and additional Resonance Chains mainly improve personal damage or raise the team's ceiling, so F2P and low-spending players do not need to chase them.

Recommended Investment: Start at S0R0, then consider S0R1 if you have spare resources.

For most players, securing Hiyuki's base copy should still take priority over chasing additional Resonance Chains.

Recommended Investment: S0R0

S0 already provides Mornye's core utility. S1 can be considered later for additional rotation comfort, but F2P players should not feel pressured to chase it.

Plan A: Build Around Qingxiao's Tune Strain Team

Recommended priority:

Qingxiao S0 → Denia S0 → Mornye S0 → Qingxiao Signature Weapon / Further Upgrades

If you are short on Astrite, it is generally not worth sacrificing an important teammate just to force S0R1.

For Qingxiao, finishing the core team can often be more valuable than adding a signature weapon to an incomplete lineup.

Plan B: Skip Tune Strain

If you are not interested in Tune Strain, you can lower the priority of Qingxiao, Denia, and Mornye and choose between Jingran and Hiyuki based on what your account actually needs.

• Need a Fusion Main DPS → Jingran
• Need a Glacio Main DPS → Hiyuki
• Need neither → Save your Astrite

Final Thoughts

The Biggest Issue With Version 3.6 Is Not Weak Characters — It Is the Cost of Building Every Archetype

The real challenge of Wuthering Waves Version 3.6 is not deciding which individual Resonator is strongest. It is managing your account resources efficiently.

Qingxiao's sword-riding traversal, aerial combat, and Tune Strain gameplay are extremely appealing, but building her full premium team from scratch also means considering Resonators such as Denia and Mornye, making the total investment relatively high.

Jingran, on the other hand, is better suited to players who want a Resonator that works well from the moment they pull the base copy. His core gameplay is available at S0, and his team-building requirements are more flexible than a fully optimized Tune Strain comp.

For Denia, Hiyuki, and Mornye, the most important question is simple:

Does your account actually need the role this Resonator fills?

F2P and low-spending players in particular should avoid going all-in just because Version 3.6 has several attractive banners. Prioritize base copies first, fill key team slots second, and only then consider signature weapons and additional Resonance Chains. That is usually the safer way to spend your Astrite.

Q1: Is Qingxiao still worth pulling without Denia?

Yes, but you should lower your expectations for a fully optimized Tune Strain team.

Qingxiao's core combat mechanics, sword-riding traversal, and overworld utility do not disappear just because you do not own Denia. If Qingxiao is one of your favorite Resonators, pulling her S0 copy is still perfectly reasonable.

However, if your goal is a high-end Tune Strain team, Denia is currently a very important system piece. Without her, you can use another Resonator temporarily and wait for a future rerun or a new compatible Tune Strain teammate.

Q2: Does Jingran need his signature weapon?

No. His signature weapon should not be treated as an entry requirement.

S0 Jingran already gives you access to his main gameplay loop, so most players should prioritize his base copy first. If you already own a usable Broadblade, you can start with that.

The final value of his signature weapon, Thousandfold Deliverance, is better judged after more live-server calculations and practical testing are available.

Q3: Is Hiyuki still worth pulling?

If your account still needs a Glacio Main DPS, Hiyuki remains a strong option to consider.

Her strengths include smooth gameplay, mobility, Resonance Liberation damage, and Glacio Chafe synergy. However, if your roster already has more than enough Main DPS options, there is little reason to force the pull simply to add another damage dealer.

Q4: If I am low on Astrite in Version 3.6, should I force Qingxiao's full premium team?

Not recommended.

If resources are limited, your first priority should be the Resonator's base copy and the key teammates required by the archetype.

Rather than draining all your Astrite in a single version for Qingxiao, Denia, Mornye, and a signature weapon, it is usually better to establish a functional team first and complete the premium setup gradually through future reruns.

Q5: If I can only choose between Qingxiao and Jingran, who should I pull?

The answer depends on what your account needs:

Already own Denia / Mornye, or definitely want to play Tune Strain → Qingxiao.

Need a Fusion Main DPS, want a strong S0 starting point, or prefer more flexible teams → Jingran.

Need neither → Pull for your favorite, or simply save your Astrite.

Version 3.6 has plenty of tempting banners, but the best Resonator to pull will always be the one that fits your account and your preferred playstyle.
