One of the major elements of Wuthering Waves is the Echo System. Whether you want to get the best stats or you’ve just gotta catch ’em all, collecting Echoes is a big part of the game. Naturally, the rarer the better, so getting your hands on 5-Star Echoes is important.
If you want to get a 5-Star Echo early in Wuthering Waves, we’ll explain exactly how!
How to Get 5-Star Echoes Early
There are two main methods to getting 5-Star Echoes in the game. The first is the traditional way, and the second is a bit of a shortcut to getting just one of these rare Echoes. Don’t worry, though, as we’ll go through both ways!
Unlocking 5-Star Echoes
Getting to the point where 5-Star Echoes drop from defeated enemies might be a bit of a slog, but it’s fairly straightforward. Your first step is to focus on levelling up the Data Bank.
Once you get your Data Bank to level 15, you’ll notice a new percentage under ‘Highest Drop Rarity’. This is for 5-Star Echoes, meaning there’s now a chance they can drop from enemies! From this point on, every additional level makes 5-Stars even more likely to appear, with the likelihood capping at 80% once you reach level 20.
Of course, getting to level 15 is quite a bit of work. Not only do you have to collect a lot of rare Echoes to raise your Data Bank EXP, but you’ll need to raise your SOL3 Phase too. This removes the caps on levelling up your Data Bank – otherwise, you won’t be able to level up!
Guaranteed 5-Star Drops
Although uncommon (and quite difficult), there is a way to get a 5-Star Echo without even needing a level 15 Data Bank. Occasionally in Wuthering Waves, you’ll encounter red enemies which are guaranteed to drop 5-Star Echoes when defeated. While fighting them won’t be easy, it does mean you can grab a 5-Star fairly early in the game.
If you’re in the mood for a challenge, here’s a quick guide to getting your hands on a 5-Star Spearback Echo.
Spearback Guide
The Depths of Illusive Realm, which you can find in the Waving Battlefield to the south of Port Gunchao, is your destination here. While you might have to wander around a bit, eventually, you will find a level 120 Spearback King. Don’t panic! It’s not as tough a fight as it first appears.
Your best bet to winning here is to focus on dodge-counters, as they’ll deal a flat damage rate. Luckily, the Spearback‘s attacks are fairly straightforward, and there are only three of them:
5-Swipe Attack
Double Swipe Attack
Charge
The first one is 5 single-paw swipes in a row. Counting them is key here because you’ll have to dodge and counter between each one. The double swipe is only the one attack, but you’ll know it’s this because the Spearback will use both its paws. Again, you just need to dodge and counter.
The charge attack is much more difficult to dodge, as it can be tricky to time when the actual attack will hit. There are two strikes to this one, making it doubly hard to dodge-counter. Unless your timing skills are on-point, your best plan is to simply run and avoid the attack entirely.
Once the Spearback King is defeated, he’ll drop his 5-Star Echo. It might not be one of the best Echoes in the game (although who doesn’t want to summon a giant bear in combat?), but it is one of the easier 5-Stars to pick up early.
