Wuthering Waves: Emerald Sentence Stats and Ascension Materials Guide

The Emerald Sentence is one of the most awaited five-star weapons in Wuthering Waves, as the signature sword for Qiuyuan. In addition to an eye-catching aesthetic appearance, it fits extremely well with Echo builds. With this weapon, the wielder can deal significant damage while enabling various team-oriented buffs, making it a weapon that multiple Resonators will want to use beyond the initial wielding character.

Weapon Stats and Passive

With an initial attack of 588 and a sub-stat on Crit Rate of 24.3% at R0/Syntonization Rank I (and at level 90), the Emerald Sentence holds among the strongest swords for purely damage output. Additionally, the weapon has a passive effect increasing ATK by 12%, meaning it will consistently have offensive pressure.

The weapon has a unique mechanic called “Bamboo Cleaver,” which occurs when an Echo Skill is used within ten seconds of an Intro Skill or Basic Attack. This grants you a bonus of 30% Heavy Attack Damage per stack with a maximum of stacks for 12 seconds. The buff initiates every ten seconds and automatically cancels out when the user leaves the field, which encourages the player to stay in combat. Each Intro Skill cast provides all members on the team a total damage buff of 20% to Echo Skills for a duration of 30 seconds. Damage buffs will not stack if the same effect applies.

Materials for Leveling Up

The Metallic Drip materials needed can be obtained through either the Garden of Salvation, Forgery Challenge, located in Rinascita, or the Flaming Remnants, Forgery Challenge in Huanglong. Also, Howler Cores drop from many enemies, which include Viridblaze Saurian, Violet-Feathered Herons, and other Elites in Huanglong.

Wrapping Things Up

The Emerald Sentence is unique due to its high Crit Rate scaling and team-based Echo Skill buff, offering an avenue for solo play and performance in groups. The Emerald Sentence, due to its simplistic approach to materials and exemplary damage, remains one of, if not the, most requested swords for Resonators geared toward Echo playstyle.
