The reasons for and against replicating banners in Wuthering Waves
Like other anime-style gacha games, Wuthering Waves often features repeating banners for Resonators, although they have different positives and negatives.
World boss teleportation feature may be coming to Wuthering Waves
Stormy waves could continue to make significant improvements in quality of life
While fast travel was available in Stormy waves Since its launch, it hasn't always been as convenient as some players would have hoped. For example, the vast post-apocalyptic world of Solaris-3 features numerous Resonance Nexus and Resonance Beacons. Players can freely teleport between Nexus Points and Resonance Beacons, as long as they are unlocked, but cannot use this feature during a boss fight or cutscene.
As of version 1.3, the list of world bosses is as follows:
- Without crown
- Storm Mephis
- Thundering Mephis
- Hell Knight
- Feilian Beringal
- Mourning Aix
- Heron of impermanence
- Lampilumen Myriad
- Mech Abomination
While the teleportation mechanic has already helped reduce players' overall travel time, there is still room for improvement. Since the debut of Kuro Games' open-world gacha in May, players have been hoping for a more streamlined fast travel system in Stormy waves. Specifically, they wanted the ability to teleport directly to key areas such as World Boss locations and Tacet fields.

According to the Stormy waves 1.4, players will no longer have to reach a world boss from the nearest resonance beacon. Instead, direct teleport functionality could be introduced to reduce downtime and allow for more efficient farming, whether for Echoes, EXP, or Resonator Ascension materials. Given how crucial it is to strengthen your team, defeating world bosses and relying on favorable attrition rates play a vital role in this labor-intensive process.
Stormy waves might have an edge on Genshin's impact
Having made a significant impact with huge success Genshin Impact in 2020, HoYoverse has set a high standard and Kuro Games' Stormy waves now he finds himself facing inevitable comparisons. While Genshin Impact AND Stormy waves share some similarities and player bases, the latter could explore ways to gain a competitive advantage over its predecessor. For example, in Genshin ImpactWorld bosses are not always found near the nearest waypoint, particularly in regions like Liyue and Mondstadt. While some world bosses are close to waypoints, players often have to travel a considerable distance to reach others, making the farming process more time-consuming.
Regardless, if the rumored fast travel feature turns out to be true, it could mark a significant improvement for Stormy waves. By making it quicker and easier to access key farming locations like World Bosses and Tacet Fields, the game would reduce travel times and improve the overall gaming experience. Along with the upcoming Version 2 update and the addition of a new nation, which should bring new content and gameplay improvements, Stormy waves continues to establish itself as a strong contender in the open-world gacha genre. With streamlined mechanics and regular updates, it's safe to say that the future looks promising Stormy waves.
