Building whirling waves in Sanhua
Wuthering Waves’ Sanhua, the unwavering and trustworthy guardian of Jinhsi, is a four-star glacio sword-wielder with the ability to conjure snow, ice, and glaciers in addition to decreasing the surrounding temperature. She is a free character that you may get early in the game and is a surprisingly strong sub-DPS. She also provides her friends with a useful bonus. Now let's examine her optimal build, taking a closer look at her abilities, weapons, echoes, rotations, and more.

Everything in our finest Wuthering Waves Sanhua build is available here:Who is Sanhua of Wuthering Waves?
The ideal sub-DPS duty for Sanhua, a four-star glacio hybrid character, would be. She is armed with a sword, and the main parts of her kit are glaciers, ice prisms, and thorns that she positions and then indicates to cause Area of Effect (AoE) damage.Sanhua plays the story's bodyguard for Jinzhou's magistrate, whom you first see during the game's opening journey to Jinzhou. Sanhua, a reserved guardian with a chilly demeanor, was once thought to be the Asura of Calamity but has now discovered how to keep her composure. Her first encounter with Wuthering Waves’ Rover demonstrated her capacity to perceive people's frequencies with her right eye.
How to Employ Sanhua
Sanhua is a hybrid character that works best in a sub-DPS role, as we have already discussed. She can enter the field quickly, do a ton of burst damage, and then swap out to provide a healthy boost to whatever ally enters next because to her swift rotation, cheap energy cost, and rapid Concerto accumulation.Sanhua's finest rotation is this one:- Intro > resonance liberation > resonance skill > heavy attack Detonate > heavy attack Detonate > echo skill > outro
This rotation can be completed in less than six seconds on average, which is very helpful if you want to pair her with a primary DPS that prefers a lot of field time. Since Sanhua's outro ability gives the following character's basic attack damage a healthy boost for 14 seconds, we advise using her rotation, then moving to a primary DPS, then a healer or support if necessary, before returning to Sanhua and beginning her cycle once again.

Waves that Wuthering Emerald of Genesis, Sanhua's finest weapon, with a high basic attack and an easily maintained stacking attack% bonus. Additionally, it has respectable energy regeneration, giving you a little more freedom in choosing her echoes.Alternately, Conviction Commando is a potent four-star all-around weapon, and Lunar Cutter is a wise choice if you want to play Sanhua with little time spent on the field. Alternatively, we suggest Sword of Night as a three-star alternative while you wait for something better. It provides a decent attack increase, particularly at tuning level five.
The top weapons for Sanhua are as follows:| Sanhua weapon | Effect |

Which Sanhua echoes are the best?
Five pieces of Moonlit Clouds, Wuthering Waves' greatest main echo set, maximize her usefulness as a sub-DPS support by boosting her energy regen and giving the next character to enter the field an attack benefit.Impermanence Heron is the ideal primary echo for Sanhua as it enables her to change into the bird and do a ton of damage while replenishing her resonance energy and increasing the damage dealt by the next character to enter the field.The ideal echo set for Sanhua is as follows:- Moonlit Clouds
- Two equipped: increases energy regeneration by 10%
- Five equipped: upon using Sanhua’s outro skill, the next character’s attack increases by 22.5% for 15 seconds
- Impermanence Heron
- Transform into Impermanence Heron to fly up and smack down, dealing 310.56% havoc damage on impact. Long press to stay as Impermanence Heron and continuously spit flames, with each attack dealing 55.73% havoc damage. Once the initial attack lands on an enemy, Sanhua regains ten resonance energy.

Which Sanhua team competition is the best?
In order to maximize the usefulness of Wuthering Waves' Sanhua, it is recommended to match her with a major DPS or a healer while choosing the optimal team. to provide assistance to her and the DPS. Naturally, however, certain characters work better with her than others.These are the synergies in Sanhua:
- Wuthering Waves’ Encore / Wuthering Waves’ Lingyang / Wuthering Waves’ Rover (Havoc) – Encore, Lingyang, and Rover (Havoc) all require plenty of field time, meaning Sanhua’s quick, burst-fuelled rotations suit them wonderfully. All three of them also rely on their normal attacks to dish out most of their damage, so Sanhua’s outro buff is very valuable to them
- Wuthering Waves’ Verina – currently, Verina is the best healer in the game and is a valuable asset to all teams. Not only is her healing top-notch, but she also provides some incredibly useful offensive and defensive buffs, as well as an additional 20% attack boost and cheat death ability every ten minutes. Essentially, if you have Verina, you want her on your team
- Wuthering Waves’ Baizhi – if Verina’s not an option, Baizhi is a strong alternative, offering similar buffs and heals – albeit on a more restrictive scale. Instead of her outro skill buffing the whole team, it only buffs the next character, but that can be valuable to buff Sanhua so you can save Sanhua’s buff for your main DPS. Beyond that, she doesn’t heal as much and requires a bit more field time, but is still a great and affordable option
