Who should you summon from Wuthering Waves 2.3 first phase anniversary banners?

1) Zani

Zani in Wuthering Waves is a force to be reckoned with, as she can output massive damage with her Inferno Mode. Although gauntlets make her extremely proficient at close-range battles, she can transform her weapon into a massive broadblade using her ultimate ability.

Zani can also use the Spectro Frazzle effect to fill up her Forte Circuit, meaning she can be paired with niche characters like Phoebe and Spectro Rover.

2) Phoebe

Consider getting Phoebe from the anniversary banner if you have already summoned Zani. The former is a powerful rotational DPS and a Spectro Frazzle applier. Aside from being Zani's best companion, she is capable of dealing massive damage.

Phoebe can also decrease the enemy's Spectro Resistance, meaning they will be more susceptible to her and the companion's attacks. Not to forget, she also has crowd-control abilities that can group up enemies, making it easier for Zani or other Resonators to hit them.

3) Zhezhi

Zhezhi in Wuthering Waves deals off-field damage via coordinated attacks. Hence, she is the staple teammate for Jinshi, one of the strongest DPS in the game. Zhezhi can further buff the next Resonator’s Skill and Glacio DMG. Hence, Carlotta also requires her on the team.

The Resonator's sought-after kit and demand in the game give her the upper-hand in this ranking.
