Changli in Wuthering Waves is the counselor to the Jinzhou Magistrate, Jinhsi. She first appeared in the narrative during v1.0, albeit for a very short duration. The developers have revealed she will debut as a playable character during the second half of version 1.1. Changli is a 5-star Resonator from the Fusion attribute, one who wields a Sword as her preferred weapon.
Although Changli will be featured on the gacha banner alongside her signature weapon, Blazing Brilliance, it is likely many players may not summon it due to its 5-star rarity. Therefore, it is imperative to be aware of the most promising alternative options.
This article will list the best weapons for Changli in Wuthering Waves.
