Wuthering Waves Denia Build Guide
Denia, a Department of Voidmatters student at Startorch Academy. Also, a professional slacker who has mastered the art of dozing through courses.
Still, she hardly misses any campus event, always there to flash her "gentle" smile to one and all.
Best Echo Sets for Denia
This is Denia's best set if you're using her in a Fusion Burst composition. The set provides Fusion DMG Bonus to both Denia and the next Resonator, boosting her sub-DPS potential significantly. The Main Echo also gives an additional Fusion DMG Bonus, making this the best-in-slot for her role.
This is the recommended set for Denia if you're using her in a Tune Strain-based composition. It provides additional ATK to the next Resonator after Outro, further increased per Tune Break Boost available. After using Echo Skill, Hyvatia also gives an extra 10% All-Attribute DMG to the next Resonator once they enter the field.
This set provides higher damage numbers for the entire team than her best-in-slot set, but requires extended fights to be maximized. In wave-based game modes where you cannot stack Tune Strain on enemies continuously, this set performs significantly worse. Do note that if you're running this set, the 3-4-3-1-1 setup is more ideal.
If you're running a Mono Fusion team, Flaming Clawprint is a viable choice since the set provides the ideal stats Denia needs for her own damage. The general Fusion buffs is good for the team, especially when not running a Fusion Burst composition specifically.
