A character who won the hearts of the whole community from the moment she was announced, Shorekeeper arrived to both rival Verina for the title of the best healer in Wuthering Waves and finally allow Jinzhou’s genius botanist to take a well-deserved rest amidst your many battles.
But thanks to her ability to offer both Crit Rate and DMG buffs based on her Energy Regeneration value, building her will be a little trickier if compared to the game’s other healers. Here’s the best Shorekeeper build in Wuthering Waves, as well as a few teams sure to allow her to shine the brightest.

Best weapons for Shorekeeper in Wuthering Waves
Like all signature 5-stars, the best weapon for Shorekeeper in Wuthering Waves is her signature, Stellar Symphony. Apart from offering 77% Energy Regen at level 90 —and thus significantly boosting her CRIT Rate and DMG buffs from the get-go— the rectifier will increase her HP by 12%, allow her to gain 8 Concerto Energy after performing her Liberation, as well as offer a 15% ATK boost to the party after she performs her Skill. All values above are related to the weapon at Rank 1.
If you wish to save your resources for 1.4, the best alternative weapon to Shopkeeper is the 4-star Variation, which will offer a great amount of ER (51% at level 90) while also allowing her to get 8 Concerto Energy after performing her Resonance Skill. The energy gain can be boosted to 12 after ascending the rectifier to rank 5.
Best F2P weapon for Shorekeeper
The best F2P weapon for Shorekeeper in Wuthering Waves is the craftable Rectifier#25. Boasting the same ER value as our top 4-star pick at level 90, the weapon will offer pretty much the same package, with the only difference lying in its lack of a Concerto-focused passive.
You can craft Rectifier#25 by heading to the Weapon’s Shop in Jinzhou and then expending 150x Indigoite, 2x Standard Weapon Mold, and 150,000 Shell Credits. As the weapon’s passive will not add to her kit in a meaningful way, I don’t recommend using resources to raise its rank.
Best Sonata and echoes
As expected for a healer, the best Sonata for Shorekeeper in WuWa is a 5-piece Rejuvenating Glow, which will boost her Healing Bonus by 10% and provide a 15% ATK boost to your team. More importantly, the Sonata will give you access to Fallacy of No Return. The premier main echo pick for Shorekeeper, the Overlord type will bring a good dose of HP-based DMG to the table, all while allowing you to boost her ER by 10% and the party’s ATK by 12%. I recommend equipping our main echo as part of a 4-3-3-1-1 composition featuring pairs of Elite and Common ones.
If you haven’t unlocked the ability to get our main echo pick, don’t worry, as Bell-Borne Geochelone will not fall that far behind given its ability to offer a 50% damage reduction and a 10% All-DMG boost to the party.
Recommended stats and substats
As you will need a good amount of HP and ER to maximize Shorekeeper’s healing, buffs, and Liberation availability, I recommend that you go with Energy Regen as the main stats for our Elite echoes while picking HP for the Common ones. For our main echo, go with Healing Bonus, although HP will not hurt as a placeholder. Substat-wise, prioritize Energy Regen until you reach at least 250%, and then move to HP.
Best Shorekeeper teams in Wuthering Waves
Thanks to her role, CRIT-related buffs, and Binary Butterfly Outro Skill passive, Shorekeeper can excel no matter your team of choice in Wuthering Waves. She does, however, perform at her best when paired with DPSs reliant on enhanced normals, such as the Havoc Rover, Xiangli Yao, Jiyan, and Danjin.
Although not able to generate Incandescence stacks at the same level as Verina, Shorekeeper also shines brightly when paired with Jinhsi, as she can synergize perfectly with both Yinlin and Zhezhi —also known as our magistrate’s best sub-DPSs— by boosting their DMG while not hindering their ability to trigger the stacks themselves.
Now that you know how to build Shorekeeper, as well as her best teams, don’t forget to also check out the most recent Wuthering Waves codes so that you can get a welcome amount of Astrite and a few key materials.
