In Wuthering Waves, there are three ways to get Inert Metallic Drips:

  1. Forgery Challenge: Flaming
    • Forgery Challenges are unlocked once you hit Union Level 20, and each Challenge attempt consumes 40 Waveplates. The Flaming Challenge is located at the edge of the Sea of Flames.
  2. Souvenir Shop
    • You can purchase one Inert Metallic Drip for two Wood-textured Shards. There is a maximum purchase limit of 20.
  3. Weapon Shop
    • You can purchase one Inert Metallic Drip for 2,400 Shell Credits, with a maximum purchase limit of 20.

Once you have a decent supply of Inert Metallic Drips, you can upgrade your sword-wielding Resonator’s Basic Attack, Resonance Skill, Forte Circuit, Resonance Liberation, and Intro Skill. The first upgrade for each of these skills costs two Inert Metallic Drops and two LF Whisperin Cores. However, you can only upgrade these skills at Resonator Rank Two.

As Inert Metallic Drip is a crucial skill-upgrade material for sword wielders, it’s essential to know who needs this item. In Wuthering Waves, there are currently four sword wielders who need this item to upgrade their skills:

  1. Rover
  2. Danjin
  3. Sanhua
  4. Yangyang

If you have any of these characters active on your team, check out the skills sections and be sure to upgrade their skills using Inert Metallic Drips as soon as they’ve reached the second Resonator Rank.
