Sanhua's abilities

Sanhua is a Glacio resonator that serves as a secondary damage dealer. The character combines both combat abilities and buffer potential, realized with the help of the heroine's Outro skill. Sanhua creates various ice constructs and then blasts them with a charged attack for high numbers. Thanks to its short and fast rotation, the character takes up virtually no combat time, allowing the main damage dealer to freely attack opponents.

Despite the simplicity of Sanhua skills, it is worth taking a closer look at each of them to understand how they work. In addition, the character’s abilities are directly related to his resonant circuits, which are also worth familiarizing yourself with and highlighting the most important ones to obtain.

Active skills

• Basic and heavy strike, air attack, counter attack [Frigid Light]

Basic Attack [Basic Attack] — Sanhua launches up to 5 consecutive attacks that deal damage to Glacio.

Heavy attack [Heavy Attack] - Absorbs some of your stamina and performs a more powerful Glacio attack.

Air attack [Mid-air Attack] - While in the air, consumes stamina and performs a strike, dealing damage to Glacio.

Counterattack [Dodge Counter] - After successfully dodging, use a normal attack to deal Glacio damage to the target.

• Resonance skill "Eternal Frost" [Resonance Skill: Eternal Frost]

Sanhua swings her sword and creates 1 Ice Prism in front of her, dealing damage to Glacio.

• Resonant release "Icy Glare" [Resonance Liberation: Glacial Gaze]

Sanhua hits Glacio with damage and creates 1 Glacier.

• Resonance Scale “Clarity of Mind” [Forte Circuit: Clarity of Mind]

Heavy Attack: Detonation [Heavy Attack: Detonate] — while holding a basic attack, the cursor begins to move on the resonance scale. If he releases a held attack while he is in the Frostbite area, Sanhua will perform a Detonation attack, which counts as heavy attack damage.

Ice blast [Ice Burst] - heavy attack Detonation explodes all Ice Spikes, Ice Prisms and Glaciers in the impact radius. Damage from Ice Blast is considered damage from the Resonance skill.

Frostbite Area [Frostbite Area] — the frostbite area increases for each stack of Clarity received and can stack up to 2 times. Stacks disappear after using the heavy attack Detonation. Clarity can be obtained in the following cases:

1. Perform a full rotation of basic attacks (5 hits).
2. After completing the Intro skill.
3. Use the resonance skill.
4. Activate resonant release.

ive skills

• Innate Skill 1 "Condensation" [Inherent Skill: Condensation]

After using the Intro skill, the damage from the resonance skill increases by 20% for 8 seconds.

• Innate Skill 2 Avalanche [Inherent Skill: Avalanche]

Ice Blast damage caused by Detonation is increased by 20% for 8 sec. after carrying out the entire series of basic attacks.

Switching skills

• Intro skill “Chilling Thorns” [Intro Skill: Freezing Thorns]

Sanhua creates 1 Ice Spike, dealing damage to Glacio.

• Outro skill “Silver Snow” [Outro Skill: Silversnow]

The next Resonator in the squad (or another character from the nearest squad who used the Outro skill) receives a 38% bonus to basic attack damage for 14 sec. or until the hero leaves the battlefield.

The order of pumping skills

Resonant Release ≥ Resonance Gauge > Resonance Skill > Intro Skill > Basic Attack

To get the maximum benefit from Sanhua and correctly distribute the limited ones, you should upgrade her abilities in a certain order:

1. Resonant release [Resonance Liberation] is an ability that deals most of the character's damage. Sanhua uses her ultimate as it cools down and fills up, so the skill activates frequently.
2. Resonance scale [Forte Circuit] - played in conjunction with an ult, skill and intro skill, exploding created objects with a heavy attack and causing additional damage, in addition to the damage of the skills themselves. It is upgraded in parallel with the previous ability, since they are equally important.
3. Resonance Skill [Resonance Skill] - upgrades along with previous abilities. Its use is interconnected with the resonance scale.
4. Intro skill [Intro Skill] - Unlike previous abilities, it deals much less damage, but also works in conjunction with the resonance scale due to the creation of “Ice Spike”.
5. Basic Attack [Basic Attack] - Basic attacks are used in Sanhua rotation to gain Clarity and activate the second innate skill. You can pump it up if you have extra resources, but they are needed only if you need damage from Sanhua from your hand, and not just from skills.

Resonant circuits (consts)

Sanhua's resonant circuits can be studied in more detail in the table below:

Name	Description
1. Solitude's Embrace	Performing a fifth basic attack increases crit. chance of Sanhua by 15% for 10 sec.
2. Snowy Clarity	Stamina consumption for heavy attack Detonation is reduced by 10. When Sanhua activates the Eternal Frost resonance skill, her interrupt resistance is increased for 10 sec.
3. Anomalous Vision	If enemies' HP is less than 70%, Sanhua's damage is increased by 35%.
4. Blade Mastery	Resonance Release Icy Gaze restores 10 resonance energy. The damage of your next Detonation is increased by 120% for 5 seconds.
5. Unraveling Fate	Crete. Ice Blast damage from the Resonance Scale is increased by 100%. Ice structures (Spike, Prism and Glacier) will explode even if they were not detonated.
6. Daybreak Radiance	After detonating an Ice Prism or Glacier, the attack power of all allies is increased by 10% for 20 sec. The effect stacks up to 2 times.

Almost all of Sanhua's chains are useful and make it stronger, but it is worth paying special attention to three of them:

• Fourth circuit provides additional resonance energy and also enhances Detonation after using an ult. Since Sanhua in rotation always uses Resonance Release to create Glacier first and then explodes it, the overall damage will increase significantly. However, please note that the buff only lasts 5 seconds, so it is better to use the ult at the very end of the rotation before the detonation.
• Fifth chain gives additional crit. damage, allowing you to look for it less in Echo's characteristics. In addition, with this chain you do not need to use the heavy attack Detonation to explode ice structures.
• Sixth chain Gives an additional 20% attack power buff to the entire squad. Since in almost all cases Sanhua explodes both Prism and Glacier, two stacks of the effect will be active at all times.

Advantages and disadvantages of Sanhua

Having dealt with Sanhua's abilities in WuW, let's pay attention to the advantages and disadvantages of the character:

Advantages	Disadvantages
He is a useful and powerful character who not only deals a lot of damage on his own, but also buffs other allies, including their normal attacks.	Even though basic attacks restore Clarity and increase the damage of Ice Blast, Sanhua does not use them in the rotation very often, and their usefulness in of total damage is questionable.
Can use the resonance scale skill almost immediately after entering the battlefield, which greatly simplifies rotation and increases the active time of the main damage dealer.	The moving cursor on the resonance scale for using Detonation is not very convenient, especially during a difficult battle, when all attention is focused on the enemy.
It has a fairly low cost of releasing resonance, allowing it to be used almost on cooldown.
Due to the cheap ultimate in Echo's stats, you can focus on stats that directly increase damage. Energy restoration can be found in secondary characteristics.

The best builds for Sanhua in WuVa

Sanhua is a strong secondary damage dealer who spends little time on the battlefield, but manages to justify all the investment in himself in that moment. She does not need characteristics, so when assembling her, you should pay attention to those stats that maximize her damage - Glacio damage bonus, attack power, and crit. damage and crit. chance.

In addition to combat characteristics, it is worth paying attention to energy recovery. Due to the cheap release of resonance, this stat is not very important for Sanhua, but it will allow you to activate your ultimate more often, which will give a good increase in overall damage. If this characteristic is increased with the help of weapons, then you should not look for it in Echo.

Recommended value of characteristics

When selecting weapons and leveling up Echo for Sanhua, you need to strive for certain indicators in the characteristics to unlock the full potential of the character:

• Attack Power: approximately 2000-2500.
• Crete. chance и Crete. damage should be approximately in the ratio 1:2, provided that the critical chance is approximately 60%-75%.
• Energy recovery: about 115%-125%.
• Glacio damage: around 40%-75%
• Health: from 15.

Best weapon

Weapons for Sanhua should increase attack power or provide critical hits. As an exception, you can take a weapon to restore energy, but in this case you will have to add an attack to Echo. Also pay attention to the ive skills of swords, in which you must also look for suitable stats.

Best Echo

Echo for Sanhua, like weapons, must fully correspond to what characteristics the character needs. The best option would be a kit to restore energy, but in this case you will have to compensate for the lack of damage effects with the help of high stats and weapons. If a character’s personal damage is more important than helping the group, then you should pay attention to sets through Glacio damage or attack power.

When upgrading Echoes for Sanhua, you need to pay attention to their main characteristics:

4 cost	Crete. damage or crit. chance
3 cost	Glacio damage
3 cost	Glacio damage
1 cost	Attack Power %
1 cost	Attack Power %

In the secondary (lower) stats you should look for the following indicators:

• Energy recovery (about 115%-125%).
• Crete. damage.
• Crete. chance.
• Attack Power %.
• Resonance Liberation DMG damage.
• Resonance Skill DMG damage.

Units for Sanhua

Sanhua in Wuthering Waves is a secondary damage dealer who, with the help of an Outro skill, enhances the basic attacks of the next resonator entering the battlefield. Therefore, when selecting a Sanhua team, it is better to bet with those heroes who deal most of the damage with the help of regular hand attacks. Her rotation is one of the shortest in the game, so other characters in the party have no time limit and can attack as much as they need.

Best characters

Let's list the heroes who can play on the same team with Sanhua:

Top Teams

From the resonators listed above, you can create the following units for Sanhua:

A group led by Jiyan, who deals the bulk of the damage with from Sanhua, which enhances his basic attacks. On the last slot you can put Verina, who gives additional buffs as well as healing, or Yang Yang, who controls enemies on the battlefield with the help of a screed.

During the game, stick to the following rotation:

1. Start the battle with the character in the last slot. In Yang Yang's case, use her abilities to deal damage and also activate her Resonant Release to group enemies in one place. Once the concert's energy is full, switch to Jiyan to restore his energy.
2. Attack with the general, but do not fill the energy of the concert completely. When you get it almost to the maximum, go to Sanhua and perform her rotation, at the end of which you should activate Echo.
3. As soon as Jiyan's icon lights up, go to him and do a full rotation under the buffs of normal attacks. Once completed, start from point 1.

In this unit, Calcharo receives boosts to both basic attacks from Sanhua and heavy hits or resonant release from Yin Lin or Mortefi. Since there is no healer on the team, you should play carefully, activating all the power-ups in turn and using the skills of all the heroes.

The rotation in battle for this team is as follows:

1. Since this squad has two buffers whose buffs only apply to one character, start the fight with Sanhua. Use her abilities to set up ice structures, then blow them up with the heavy attack Detonation.
2. Switch to Yin Lin or Mortefi, using Sanhua's Outro skill to enhance their normal attacks. Rotate, causing damage to your opponents.
3. When Outro is ready, switch to Calciaro. Use the Echo skill for an extra buff, then attack while all buffs are active.

How to play as Sanhua: rotation

Sanhua is a unique character who is able to perform a full rotation in a few seconds, deal damage and go into the pocket, strengthening the next damage dealer. The core of her gameplay is to create constructs of ice, which she then explodes with a heavy attack through the resonance gauge. The main difficulty of Sanhua is a kind of quick-time game (QTE) on the resonance scale, where you need to have time to release a heavy attack while the cursor is in the desired area, increasing depending on the number of stacks of Clarity. Based on this, there are two ways to play as Sanhua:

• perform Detonation immediately after creating the structure;
• activate several constructs to increase the Frostbite area, and then use Detonation.

Considering the above, Sanhua's rotation in Wuwaring Waves is as follows:

1. If there are several buffers in the squad, use the boosts from the second before Sanhua comes out, and then switch to her to activate the Intro skill and set up the “Ice Spike”.
2. After the Intro, press the skill and release the Sanhua Resonance to create the “Ice Prism” and “Glacier”.
3. Hold down a heavy attack and wait until the cursor is on the Frostbite area and release the blow, after aiming towards the ice objects to explode them. Repeat Detonation if necessary.
4. When playing through Moonlit Clouds, press the Echo ability at the very end of the rotation and use the Outro skill, switching to the main damage dealer. When playing through Glacio damage, Echo skills should be used at the beginning of Sanhua's rotation.

Сonclusion

Sanhua in WuWa is an epic character that can be obtained by all players a few days after starting the game. She is a strong, versatile secondary damage dealer that can easily fit into almost any squad due to her high damage, fast rotation that takes a few seconds, and a useful ability that allows her to enhance the basic attacks of the next hero in the squad.

Sanhua has simple gameplay and is unpretentious to assemble, since it only needs attack power and crits, and the choice of suitable weapons for the heroine is very wide. Also, the character is quite strong without the presence of resonance circuits, which further strengthen her, but do not radically change the entire gameplay.

We hope this guide helped you put together the best build for Sanhua in Wuvering Waves. Read detailed Wuthering Waves section.
