Buffget

2025/12/19

Hazard Zone resets January 5, 2026—28 days of pain for 800 Astrite if you nail that 30-star clear across 12 floors. Camellya dominates Floors 1-2 (hello, Glacio/Spectro RES shred), Galbrena owns 3-4 (Electro/Glacio walls), and Shorekeeper or Verina keep everyone alive everywhere. Version 2.8? Echo Skills are king—dump 20 Vigor on easy stuff, hoard for those Lv100 bosses.

Quick Hazard Zone Rundown and Reset Deets

You unlock this beast after Experimental Zone and Union Level 15, plus the Alone in the Abyss quest. Three towers—Resonant Left, Echoing Right, Hazard Center—each with 4 floors. Vigor's shared at 5 per floor. Full sweep? 800 Astrite, 840 Hazard Records, 210,000 Shell Credits, and 6 each of Advanced Resonance Potions, Energy Cores, Sealed Tubes. Crests max at 36 (3 per floor); hit 27-30 for 50 Astrite + 30,000 Shell Credits + 120 Records per milestone.

Floor-by-Floor Foes and Time Goals

Wuthering Waves Hazard Zone floor enemies with RES types

Time thresholds are tight: Floors 1-2 need ≥90s (1 crest), ≥150s (2), ≥180s (3). Floors 3-4: ≥60s (1), ≥120s (2), ≥150s (3). Hazard Tower Lv100 hits hard—Floor 1: Sentry Construct (Glacio RES). Floor 2: Rocksteady Guardian/Mourning Aix (Spectro RES). Floor 3: Lumiscale/Abyssal Patricius/Lampylumen Myriad (Electro/Glacio). Floor 4: Mech Abomination/Thundering Mephis (Electro RES). Wrong RES match? DPS tanks 50%+.

Scan those RES icons. Swap in the right DPS. Aim ≥180s on 1-2 for 75 Astrite + 30 Records per 3 crests.

Floors 1-2 Domination: Camellya Hypercarry

Recommended team for Wuthering Waves Floors 1-2: Camellya hypercarry

Camellya (DPS) + Roccia/Sanhua (Sub-DPS) + Shorekeeper/Verina (Support). Clears ≥180s easy, shreds Glacio/Spectro perfectly.

Lead with Camellya—30% DEF ignore right off the bat. Stack Echo Skills for RES bypass + Crest amps. Liberation burst at 40% DMG stacks. Quickswap Sub-DPS for AoE cleanup on packs.

Floors 3-4 Lockdown: Galbrena Takes Over

Wuthering Waves Floors 3-4 team: Galbrena hypercarry setup

Galbrena (DPS) + Qiuyuan/Mortefi/Iuno/Lupa/Brant/Changli/Encore (Sub-DPS) + Shorekeeper/Verina. Smashes Floor 4 ≥150s against Electro/Glacio RES; Echo amps add 30% DMG.

Stack 8 Basics for 40% All-Attribute DMG. Echo Skills strip 5 RES stacks. Galbrena burst. Verina layers 50% DR + 15% ATK.

(Quick editor note: Galbrena's rotation feels clunky at first—practice in Overdrive. Worth it.)

Sustain Staples and Team Building Rules

Shorekeeper/Verina? SS-tier must-haves for heals and buffs. Hypercarry Camellya or Galbrena at S0 5-stars + Moonlit Clouds (22.5% ATK). Subs: Roccia/Sanhua early, Qiuyuan/Changli late. 5-cost Echoes (Impermanence Heron for Havoc), R1+ weapons, 80% field time on DPS.

Refine to R1+. Nail hypercarry rotations. Skip Cartethyia/Phrolova on RES-heavy floors—they flop.

Vigor Smarts for 30+ Stars

Camellya on 1-3 (15 Vigor), Galbrena Floor 4 (5 Vigor)—that's 30+ stars (36 max). Milestones like 15 crests net 75 Astrite + 50 Records; full run 800 Astrite.

Farm Stable for Yuanwu/Records. Test Overdrive (Lv100 mirror). Sync Intro/Liberation/Echo; retry after gear tweaks.

Rewards Haul and Next Steps

Crest tiers scale: 9 crests = 75 Astrite + 2 Advanced Energy Cores + 40 Records; peaks at 27. Total 840 Records (no expiry). Clears Hazard? Unlocks Overdrive.
