Wuthering Waves Team Building Guide 2026 — Meta Cores

A strong Wuthering Waves team in 2026 is one main DPS + one Concerto buffer / sub-DPS + one healer. This guide lists meta cores per Attribute (Spectro Jinhsi, Glacio Carlotta, Havoc Camellya, Aero Cartethyia, Electro Xiangli Yao, Fusion Changli) plus the best free-to-play teams.

Meta Cores by Attribute

Spectro: Jinhsi + Zhezhi + Shorekeeper. Glacio: Carlotta + Zhezhi + Shorekeeper. Havoc: Camellya + Sanhua + Shorekeeper. Aero: Cartethyia + Ciaccona + Shorekeeper. Electro: Xiangli Yao + Yinlin + Shorekeeper. Fusion: Changli + Brant + Verina.

Best F2P Teams

Rover + Yangyang + Baizhi (starter). Jinhsi + Sanhua + Baizhi (Spectro). Camellya + Danjin + Baizhi (Havoc). Jiyan + Yuanwu + Baizhi (Aero). These clear all story content and early endgame free.

Pull Priority in 2026

Pull one limited main DPS you like, then Shorekeeper (best sustain, if you lack her), then a coord / buffer for your carry (Zhezhi, Sanhua, Ciaccona, Yinlin). A signature weapon is usually a lower priority than a new Resonator.
