Changli is an upcoming playable 5-star character in Wuthering Waves. She will be released in version 1.1 and some recent leaks suggest that she is a Sword user with Fusion Attribute. Based on the beta leaks, Changli has one of the highest damage scaling kits, making her an amazing on-field damage dealer unit. That said, you can also use her as an off-field unit since she can provide some nice buffs to the next character to enter the field.

Molten Rift is the best Echo set option for Changli in Wuthering Waves. The 2-pc set increases the Resonator’s Fusion DMG by 10%. Meanwhile, the 5-pc set provides another 30% Fusion DMG bonus for 15 seconds after the character uses their Resonance Skill. Thus, one can earn up to 40% Fusion DMG bonus, which is pretty huge.
2) Moonlit Clouds
![Moonlit Clouds (Image via Kuro Games)](https://staticg.sportskeeda.com/editor/2024/06/1d7b3-17181101302412-1920.jpg?w=190 190w, https://staticg.sportskeeda.com/editor/2024/06/1d7b3-17181101302412-1920.jpg?w=720 720w, https://staticg.sportskeeda.com/editor/2024/06/1d7b3-17181101302412-1920.jpg?w=640 640w, https://staticg.sportskeeda.com/editor/2024/06/1d7b3-17181101302412-1920.jpg?w=1045 1045w, https://staticg.sportskeeda.com/editor/2024/06/1d7b3-17181101302412-1920.jpg?w=1200 1200w, https://staticg.sportskeeda.com/editor/2024/06/1d7b3-17181101302412-1920.jpg?w=1460 1460w, https://staticg.sportskeeda.com/editor/2024/06/1d7b3-17181101302412-1920.jpg?w=1600 1600w, https://staticg.sportskeeda.com/editor/2024/06/1d7b3-17181101302412-1920.jpg 1920w)
Moonlit Clouds is a good Echo set for Changli for a support role. The 2-pc set provides a decent amount of Energy Regen and the full 5-pc set increases the ATK% of the next Resonator to enter the field, which works nicely with Changli’s Outro Skill buff.
3) 2-pc Molten Rift + 2-pc Lingering Tunes
![Molten Rift and Lingering Tunes (Image via Kuro Games)](https://staticg.sportskeeda.com/editor/2024/06/33489-17181108650553-1920.jpg?w=190 190w, https://staticg.sportskeeda.com/editor/2024/06/33489-17181108650553-1920.jpg?w=720 720w, https://staticg.sportskeeda.com/editor/2024/06/33489-17181108650553-1920.jpg?w=640 640w, https://staticg.sportskeeda.com/editor/2024/06/33489-17181108650553-1920.jpg?w=1045 1045w, https://staticg.sportskeeda.com/editor/2024/06/33489-17181108650553-1920.jpg?w=1200 1200w, https://staticg.sportskeeda.com/editor/2024/06/33489-17181108650553-1920.jpg?w=1460 1460w, https://staticg.sportskeeda.com/editor/2024/06/33489-17181108650553-1920.jpg?w=1600 1600w, https://staticg.sportskeeda.com/editor/2024/06/33489-17181108650553-1920.jpg 1920w)

Prioritize the following Echo main stats for Changli:

Here’s a list of the best Echo skills for Changli in Wuthering Waves:
- Inferno Rider
- Impermanence Heron
Inferno Rider is the best Echo skill for a main DPS Changli. Upon using the Echo skill, the Resonator transforms into Inferno Rider to deliver multiple attacks on the enemy, dealing Fusion damage, and the equipping character’s Fusion DMG and Basic ATK DMG increase by 12% for 15 seconds.
On the other hand, if you want to use Changli as a sub-DPS unit, Impermanence Heron is a better option since it helps restore Resonance Energy and buffs the DMG of the next character to enter the field.
Changli Forte priority
Prioritize Changli's Forte in the following order:
- Forte Circuit > Resonance Liberation > Resonance Skill > Basic ATK > Intro Skill
Changli's Forte Circuit is the most important part of her kit, followed by Resonance Liberation (ultimate) and Resonance Skill (skill).
