Sanhua is a free 4-Star Glacio Resonator in Wuthering Waves. She works best as a sub-DPS and buffer.

The elements play a crucial role and having a variety of different element users in the team is crucial for the game, as some enemies in the game have elemental resistance corresponding to their elements. Having a team with different attribute users allows players to utilize the same composition against a wide variety of enemies.


In Wuthering Waves, the characters have one of the six elements in the game. These elements play an important role in the battle, as some enemies have elemental resistance. Of the six elements in the game, Glacio is one of them. The element allows players to gain control over the ice element to cool down and freeze enemies. Since the game is fairly new and not many characters are out. This list aims to help players by ranking all the Glacio Resonators available at the time of writing, so that players can choose which Glacio resonator to roll for and build when starting the game.


3 Lingyang

5-Star


The gauntlet wielding young character from Wuthering Waves is a five-star unit available in the game for players. The melee damage dealer comes with a unique gameplay style that is far different from any character in the game, which adds to its appeal for the players. Lingyang thrives off his ultimate skill as he deals most of his damage during the ultimate uptime. His passive skill allows him to go airborne and fight enemies midair, leaving them no chance to counter.

Being an excellent single target DPS, Lingyang can handle multiple enemy units and even bosses in middle air with ease giving them no chance to make a move. On top of it, Lingyang’s ultimate and his QTE cycle are extremely fluent to operate and he can regain the resonance energy quickly. Lingyang is a permanent five-star character that players can obtain in game.


Lingyang, however, has some downsides to him which might make him unappealing to many. Starting with his damage output, Lingyang for being a five-star DPS, underperforms when compared to other DPS characters in the game. His ability to go up in the air during his ultimate skill makes him hard to control for the players. Players can face difficulty hitting enemies and missing hitboxes while being airborne, and being in the air also limits the ability to dodge enemy attacks. Due to these reasons, Lingyang becomes a challenging unit for the players and with underwhelming damage when compared to its other DPS counterparts, only players who are willing to take on the challenge or the ones who are attracted by his playstyle will go for him.

Sanhua’s main selling point is that she has one of the fastest Concerto rotations in the game, which allows her to take over the field and dish out great damage in a flash and swap out, providing an attack buff to the next ally taking over the field to increase the team’s overall damage output. Sanhua’s ultimate also has a low cost and pairing it with her ability to create an ample amount of energy, her potential as a burst DPS exceeds more than what was expected.


She can also switch her role and switch to a playstyle where she can sustain the team by actively damaging the enemies on field. Utilizing her basic attack oriented kit, she opens more options for the players to choose a role for her. However, in order to properly utilize her properly on the field, players have to time her heavy basic attack to detonate at the right moment when the cursor falls in the ‘Frostbite’ area. Failing to do so results in lowering her damage output and her energy regeneration.

Players can unlock Sanhua for free by completing the Gift of Thawing Frost event. For a free character. Sanhua brings a lot of utility for the team and with each dupe obtained, Sanhua keeps on getting even stronger. All of these things make Sanhua an extremely reliable unit and players should not miss the opportunity to make the most of this character.
