Here is a full breakdown of Ciaccona’s best build in Wuthering Waves, including weapons, Echoes, talents, and teams.

Best Ciaccona Weapons in Wuthering Waves

Despite attacking with her microphone, Ciaccona is a pistol user. She has many different options to choose from, but players will have to farm Astrite if they want to unlock her signature weapon.

Here are the best weapons for Ciaccona:

WeaponSourceRarityEffect

Woodland Aria
Ciaccona’s signature weaponFive-starIncreases ATK by 12 percent. Inflicting Aero Erosion on the target gives 24 percent Aero DMG Bonus for 10 seconds. Hitting targets with Aero Erosion reduces their Aero Resistance by 10 percent for 20 seconds.

The Last Dance
Carlotta’s signature weaponFive-starIncreases ATK by 12 percent. Increase Resonance Skill DMG bonus by 48 percent after casting Intro Skill or Resonance Liberation.

Static Mist
Standard weapon bannerFive-starIncrease Energy Regen by 12.8 percent. When Outro Skill is cast, the incoming Resonator’s ATK is increased by 10 percent.

Romance In Farewell
CraftingFour-starDealing DMG to enemies with negative statuses increases your ATK by 8 percent for 10 seconds, stacking four times.

Relativist Jet
ConveneFour-starCasting Resonance Skill grants 10 Resonance Energy and increases ATK by 20 percent for 16 seconds.

Woodland Aria is Ciaccona’s signature weapon, so it’s uncontested as her best choice. If you don’t want to use Astrite to get it, we suggest crafting Romance in Farewell. This four-star pistol still provides nice damage and is relatively easy to obtain.

Best Ciaccona Echoes in Wuthering Waves

In Aero teams, Ciaccona’s best Echo Set is Gusts of Welkin. By equipping five pieces of this set, she’ll increase both her and her team’s Aero DMG by 15 percent whenever she triggers Aero Erosion.

Alternatively, if you’re building Ciaccona for Spectro Frazzle, then we suggest the Moonlit Clouds Echo set.

In Aero Erosion teams, Reminiscence: Fleudelys is the best Four-cost Echo skill to equip while playing Ciaccona. Summoning this Echo will increase your Aero DMG by 10 percent, and you can farm it by completing the weekly boss Fleurdelys.

For Spectro Frazzle, equip the Impermanence Heron to provide an ATK boost to teammates.

Echo stats

Similar to other supports in the game, Ciaccona should build specific main stats to maximize her personal DMG.

Here are the main stats you should target on your Echoes:

  1. Four cost: CRIT DMG or CRIT Rate
  2. Three cost (x2): Aero DMG bonus
  3. One cost (x2): ATK percent

In terms of Echo substats, focus on getting a few roles of Energy Regen, or around 120 percent, to ensure that Ciaccona can always cast her Resonance Liberation. Stats like CRIT DMG, CRIT Rate, ATK percent, and Resonance Liberation DMG will also boost her potential.

Best Ciaccona talent priority in Wuthering Waves

As a debuffer, Ciaccona relies heavily on her Resonance Liberation to apply Aero Erosion or Spectro Frazzle.

Focus on leveling her talents in this order:

  1. Resonance Liberation
  2. Basic Attacks
  3. Forte Circuit
  4. Resonance Skill + Intro Skill

Both her Resonance Liberation and Basic Attacks apply debuffs, so they should be leveled first. Her Forte Circuit provides some nice grouping and AOE damage. Finally, you can upgrade her other talents or hold off to save resources.

Best Ciaccona teams in Wuthering Waves

Since Ciaccona can apply both Aero Erosion and Spectro Frazzle with her Resonance Liberation, she can slot into many different teams. The bard works best with Cartethyia, but she can also be played with Aero DPS units like Jiyan, or as a Spectro Frazzle debuffer for Zani and Phoebe teams.

Ciaccona’s Aero Erosion teams:


Cartethyia (DPS)

Ciaccona (Debuffer)


Aero Rover (Healer)
This is Ciaccona’s best team.

Jiyan (DPS)


Ciaccona (Debuffer)


Aero Rover (Healer)
Ciaccona can buff the damage of any Resonator who deals Aero DMG.

Ciaccona’s Spectro Frazzle teams:


Zani (DPS)

Ciaccona (Debuffer)

Spectro Rover (Sub-DPS)
Using Ciaccona to apply Spectro Frazzle extends Zani’s rotation time, but greatly increases her damage.

Phoebe (DPS)

Ciaccona (Debuffer)

The Shorekeeper (Healer)
Phoebe deals more damage to enemies with Spectro Frazzle, synergizing with Ciaccona.
