Hsin is an upcoming 5-star Electro Rectifier Resonator in Wuthering Waves Version 3.7. Her kit focuses on Resonance Skill damage and features two modes:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Electro Flare Mode: A main Electro DPS style that builds and consumes special resources to deal additional Electro Flare damage.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Unison Mode: A flexible quick-swap style that improves Intro and Outro Skill synergy across the team.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This guide covers her best weapons, Echo sets, main stats, substats, skill upgrade priority, teams, and basic rotations. However, all information is based on pre-release Version 3.7 data and may change upon official release.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<\/contents>\n\n\n\n

Hsin Overview<\/h2>\n\n\n
\n
\"Hsin\"<\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n

5-Star | Electro | Rectifier<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Unlike traditional DPS characters, Hsin\u2019s gameplay revolves around two combat phases and two Resonance Modes. She is expected to function primarily as an Electro DPS centered on Resonance Skill DMG. At the same time, her Resonance Modes allow her to adapt to different team compositions. In addition, her unique Heart Fox form provides extra exploration utility outside combat.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Hsin's Role and Playstyle<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Hsin is designed around two layers of form management. Specifically, her physical combat state alternates between Answering Form and Illumining Form. Meanwhile, her selected Resonance Mode determines how her mechanics interact with the rest of the team.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Electro Flare Mode<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Electro Flare Mode is the more direct damage-oriented option.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

When members of the team generate Electro Rage, Hsin converts it into Heart of Thunder. She can then consume Heart of Thunder through her Illumining Form attacks to trigger additional Electro Flare damage.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This mode rewards teams that can apply Electro Flare consistently. Hsin can also apply the status herself after using Formshift, but characters such as Electro Rover and Suisui can accelerate the process and improve the consistency of her damage windows.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Choose Electro Flare Mode when:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    \n
  • Hsin is your primary on-field damage dealer.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  • Your team contains reliable Electro Flare applicators.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  • You want to maximize Hsin\u2019s personal damage.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  • You prefer a more traditional carry rotation.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n

    Unison Mode<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

    By contrast, Unison Mode focuses more heavily on character switching, Intro Skills, Outro Skills, and teamwide amplification.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    While Hsin has Unison, switching characters can activate her Outro Skill and the incoming character\u2019s Intro Skill without requiring the usual full Concerto Energy condition. In addition, triggering Unison Response generates Unison Boon, which increases the damage of compatible Resonators.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    Therefore, Hsin is not restricted to a single team archetype. Electro Flare Mode emphasizes her personal damage, while Unison Mode turns her into a flexible dual-carry or quick-swap unit.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    Hsin Skill Upgrade Priority<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
    \"Hsin\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

    Hsin's strongest attacks are closely connected to her Forte Circuit and are treated as Resonance Skill damage. Therefore, her Forte Circuit should receive the highest investment.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    Recommended skill priority:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

      \n
    1. Forte Circuit<\/li>\n\n\n\n
    2. Resonance Liberation<\/li>\n\n\n\n
    3. Resonance Skill<\/li>\n\n\n\n
    4. Basic Attack<\/li>\n\n\n\n
    5. Intro Skill<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n

      Forte Circuit<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

      The Forte Circuit controls Answering Heart, Illumining Heart, Mechanism Dominion, and several of Hsin\u2019s strongest enhanced attacks. Since these mechanics form the core of her rotation, the Forte Circuit should be upgraded first.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

      Resonance Liberation<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

      Hsin\u2019s Resonance Liberation enables Formshift, allowing her to enter Illumining Form and Heart Manifest. It also unlocks Pillars Across Heaven, one of the major finishing attacks in her rotation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

      Resonance Skill<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

      Hsin frequently uses her Resonance Skill to deal damage, enter Mechanism Dominion, apply Electro Flare, and consume Heart of Thunder. It remains an important upgrade even though several enhanced attacks scale through her Forte Circuit.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

      Basic Attack<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

      Basic Attacks help Hsin build her resources and progress through her combat sequence. They are worth upgrading after her core damage talents.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

      Best Weapons for Hsin<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

      1. Blooming Jadehaven<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

      Blooming Jadehaven is Hsin\u2019s signature Rectifier and her best overall weapon.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

      At maximum level, its pre-release values provide:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

        \n
      • 588 Base ATK<\/li>\n\n\n\n
      • 24.3% CRIT Rate<\/li>\n\n\n\n
      • All-Attribute DMG Bonus<\/li>\n\n\n\n
      • Resonance Skill DMG Amplification<\/li>\n\n\n\n
      • Partial Electro RES ignore<\/li>\n\n\n\n
      • Increased Electro Flare damage received by nearby enemies<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n

        Therefore, Blooming Jadehaven is especially valuable if Hsin will serve as a long-term main DPS. However, players who already own a strong CRIT Rectifier may not need her signature weapon immediately.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

        2. Stringmaster<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

        Stringmaster is Hsin\u2019s best premium alternative.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

        It provides:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

          \n
        • 500 Base ATK<\/li>\n\n\n\n
        • 36% CRIT Rate<\/li>\n\n\n\n
        • Attribute DMG Bonus<\/li>\n\n\n\n
        • Additional ATK after dealing Resonance Skill damage<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n

          Although Stringmaster does not provide the specialized Electro Flare bonuses of Blooming Jadehaven, it remains a strong general-purpose option.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

          3. Waltz in Masquerade<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

          As a result, activating its passive should be relatively straightforward in most Hsin teams. Although its overall ceiling is lower than the two 5-star options, it is a useful choice for players who want to save their Astrites.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

          Hsin Weapon Ranking<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

          Best Echo Set for Hsin<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

          Heart of Sworn Vigil<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

          The best Hsin Echo set is expected to be the 5-piece Heart of Sworn Vigil.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

          Its pre-release set bonuses are:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

            \n
          • 2-piece: Increases Electro DMG by 10%.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
          • 5-piece: Inflicting Electro Flare, gaining Unison, or triggering Unison Response increases CRIT Rate by 15% and Electro DMG by 22.5% for 30 seconds.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n

            This set supports both of Hsin's Resonance Modes. For example, Electro Flare teams can activate it by applying the corresponding status. Meanwhile, Unison teams trigger its effect through their switching mechanics. In addition, the long buff duration makes the set comfortable to maintain throughout a normal rotation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

            Alternative Echo Set<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

            If a complete Heart of Sworn Vigil set is unavailable, a 5-piece Void Thunder set can serve as a temporary Electro damage option. Alternatively, players can use a mixed 2-piece Electro DMG and 2-piece ATK setup while farming better Echoes. However, these alternatives should mainly be treated as transitional builds rather than Hsin\u2019s final equipment.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

            Best Echo Main Stats<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

            The recommended Echo cost distribution is 4-3-3-1-1.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

            Echo Cost<\/th>Recommended Main Stat<\/th><\/tr>
            4-Cost<\/td>CRIT Rate or CRIT DMG<\/td><\/tr>
            3-Cost<\/td>Electro DMG Bonus<\/td><\/tr>
            3-Cost<\/td>Electro DMG Bonus<\/td><\/tr>
            1-Cost<\/td>ATK%<\/td><\/tr>
            1-Cost<\/td>ATK%<\/td><\/tr><\/tbody><\/table><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

            Choose the 4-cost CRIT stat according to your overall ratio. Because Heart of Sworn Vigil provides additional CRIT Rate when activated, players with strong CRIT Rate substats may prefer a CRIT DMG main Echo. On the other hand, use CRIT Rate if your build struggles to trigger critical hits consistently.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

            Best Echo Substats<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

            Prioritize Hsin\u2019s Echo substats in the following order:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

              \n
            1. CRIT Rate<\/li>\n\n\n\n
            2. CRIT DMG<\/li>\n\n\n\n
            3. Resonance Skill DMG Bonus<\/li>\n\n\n\n
            4. ATK%<\/li>\n\n\n\n
            5. Energy Regeneration<\/li>\n\n\n\n
            6. Flat ATK<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n

              A practical target is approximately:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

                \n
              • 70% CRIT Rate<\/li>\n\n\n\n
              • 200% or more CRIT DMG<\/li>\n\n\n\n
              • As much Resonance Skill DMG Bonus and ATK as possible<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n

                Remember to account for the CRIT Rate granted by Heart of Sworn Vigil. The ideal displayed CRIT Rate may be lower if Hsin can maintain the set\u2019s conditional bonus throughout combat.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

                An exact Energy Regeneration target should be determined after her final release. Use enough Energy Regeneration to keep Formshift and Pillars Across Heaven available without delaying the team\u2019s rotation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

                Best Hsin Teams<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

                Hsin\u2019s best teammates depend on whether she is using Electro Flare Mode or Unison Mode.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

                Electro Flare Main DPS Team<\/h3>\n\n\n\n
                Character<\/th>Role<\/th><\/tr>
                \"Hsin\"
                Hsin<\/td>                		Main DPS<\/td><\/tr>
                \"Rover:
                Rover: Electro<\/td>                		Electro Flare applicator and sub-DPS<\/td><\/tr>
                \"Suisui\"
                Suisui<\/td>                		Sustain and Electro Flare support<\/td><\/tr><\/tbody><\/table><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

                Electro Rover helps apply Electro Flare and generate the resources required by Hsin\u2019s damage mechanics. In addition, Hsin gains an extra Electro synergy effect when paired with Electro Rover.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

                Meanwhile, Suisui provides healing while supporting Electro Flare and Electro Rage interactions. As a result, the team becomes more comfortable without sacrificing its central mechanic.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

                Overall, the team\u2019s objective is to establish Electro Flare, generate Electro Rage, convert it into Heart of Thunder, and allow Hsin to consume that resource during her Illumining Form damage window.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

                Unison Quick-Swap Team<\/h3>\n\n\n\n
                Character<\/th>Role<\/th><\/tr>
                \"Hsin\"
                Hsin<\/td>                		Main DPS and Unison enabler<\/td><\/tr>

                This composition uses the interaction between Hsin and Suoming to trigger Unison Response and repeated Intro Skill effects.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

                Instead of relying on one uninterrupted carry window, Hsin and Suoming share field time. Meanwhile, Shorekeeper supports this playstyle with healing, CRIT-related buffs, and effects that remain active while the team rotates between its two damage dealers.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

                Accessible Electro Flare Team<\/h3>\n\n\n\n
                Character<\/th>Role<\/th><\/tr>
                \"Hsin\"

                Players without Suisui can retain the basic Electro Flare core by pairing Hsin with Electro Rover and an available healer.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

                This version may generate fewer specialized buffs, but it preserves the most important part of the composition: consistent Electro Flare application for Hsin.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

                Hsin Rotation Guide<\/h2>\n\n\n
                \n
                \"Hsin\"<\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n

                Hsin's exact optimal rotation may change after release, but her pre-release kit suggests two general sequences.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

                Electro Flare Rotation<\/h3>\n\n\n\n
                  \n
                1. Begin with your sustain character and activate their buffs.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
                2. Switch to Electro Rover and apply Electro Flare.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
                3. Use Rover\u2019s supporting abilities before switching to Hsin.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
                4. Build Answering Heart with Hsin\u2019s attacks and Resonance Skill.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
                5. Use the enhanced Heavy Attack after reaching maximum Answering Heart.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
                6. Cast Formshift to enter Illumining Form and Heart Manifest.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
                7. Build Illumining Heart and enter Mechanism Dominion.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
                8. Use Hsin\u2019s Illumining Form attacks and Resonance Skill to consume Heart of Thunder.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
                9. Activate the enhanced attack that unlocks Pillars Across Heaven.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
                10. Cast Pillars Across Heaven and complete Hsin\u2019s damage window.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
                11. Use her Outro Skill and restart the team rotation.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n

                  Avoid switching away too early while Hsin is consuming Heart of Thunder. Ending the relevant Resonance Skill sequence prematurely may reduce the number of Electro Flare triggers she produces.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

                  Unison Rotation<\/h3>\n\n\n\n
                    \n
                  1. Activate the sustain character\u2019s buffs.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
                  2. Use Suoming\u2019s abilities and prepare the Unison interaction.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
                  3. Switch to Hsin through an Intro Skill.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
                  4. Enter Mechanism Dominion and use Hsin\u2019s enhanced attacks.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
                  5. Build and consume Illumining Heart.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
                  6. Use Pillars Across Heaven when available.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
                  7. Switch back to Suoming to trigger Hsin\u2019s Outro and the incoming Intro Skill.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
                  8. Continue alternating between both damage dealers while maintaining Unison Boon.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n

                    The priority in this team is smooth switching. Do not keep Hsin on the field longer than necessary if Suoming's Intro Skill and damage window are ready.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

                    Is Hsin's Signature Weapon Worth Pulling?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

                    Blooming Jadehaven is likely worth considering if:<\/p>\n\n\n\n
