Tower of Adversity Guide Dec 8 | Wuthering Waves

Hey there, fellow Rovers! The Tower of Adversity's current cycle runs from December 8, 2025, to January 5, 2026. This lengthy rotation gives you ample time to refine your strategies and conquer all the challenges! 

We’re gonna kick things off by breaking down every single tower like pros. First up, let’s dive into the Resonant Tower, then zip over to Hazard and Echoing Towers. We’ll dish on environmental buffs, enemy lineups, and the ultimate team setups so you can breeze through every stage like the legend you are. Let’s get started!

Resonant Tower (Left)

Environmental Effects

• Enemy Electro RES decreases by 10%
• When any Resonator receives healing, the ATK of all Resonators in the team is increased by 30% for 20s. When the Resonator has a shield, their Crit. DMG increases by 30%.

Enemy Layout (Floor 4, skip Floor 1-3)

Fractsidus Executioner	Havoc
Scar: Aberrant Nightmare	Spectro Havoc

Recommended Teams

Augusta	Iuno	Shorekeeper
Xiangli Yao	Yinlin	Verina
Cartethyia	Ciaccona	Chisa
Jiyan	Mortefi	Verina

Tip: Since Scar is a unique boss with dual resistance, it's highly recommended to avoid bringing Havoc or Spectro-attribute teams to the Resonant Tower for this period. Any team that isn't Havoc or Spectro should have a pretty easy time. We highly suggest using Augusta and Iuno.

 

Hazard Tower (Middle)

Floor 1&2 Environmental Effects

• Enemies' Havoc RES, and Aero RES are reduced by 10% and Spectro RES and Glacio RES increased by 10%.
• Crit. DMG is increased by 20%. Dealing Basic Attack DMG grants 5% All-Attribute DMG Bonus for 6s, stacking up to 8 times. Retriggering the effect resets its duration, and the effect is removed when the Resonator is switched off the field.

Floor 1&2 Enemy Layout

Floor 1	Sentry Construct	Glacio
Floor 2	Rocksteady Guardian	Spectro
	Rage Against the Statue	Spectro
	Mourning Aix	Spectro

Floor 1&2 Recommended Teams

Phrolova	Cantarella	Shorekeeper
Camellya	Sanhua	Shorekeeper
Cartethyia	Ciaccona	Chisa
Changli	Lupa	Brant

Tip: It's relatively easy to proc the second Environmental Effect just by using Basic Attacks.  Characters like Camellya and Sanhua can easily capitalize on this, and Rover (Havoc) is also a viable option.

Don't miss out on this time-limited offer!

 

Floor 3&4 Environmental Effects

• 60s after the battle starts, Resonators' total DMG is increased by 5%. After that, their total DMG is increased by 5% every 5s, up to 60%.
• Enemies have 5 stacks of All-Attribute RES at the start, each stack granting 8%.
  Casting an Echo Skill allows Resonators in the team to ignore 1 stack of All-Attribute RES. The same Resonator cannot repeatedly trigger this effect with Echoes of the same name.
• Enemies take 40% increased Echo DMG, and Negative Status DMG is Amplified by 60%.
  Casting an Echo Skill grants Resonators in the team 1 stack of Crest Enhancement, stacking up to 5 times. The same Resonator cannot repeatedly trigger this effect with Echoes of the same name.
  At stack 1/2/3/4/5, total DMG dealt is increased by 15%/20%/25%/30%/40%.

Floor 3&4 Enemy Layout

Floor 3	Lumiscale Construct	Glacio
	Questless Knight	Electro
	Abyssal Patricius	Glacio
	Lampylumen Myriad	Glacio
Floor 4	Mech Abomination	Electro
	Thundering Mephis	Electro

Floor 3&4 Recommended Teams

This current Mid Floor 3/4 is tailor-made for Echo Skill and Negative Status teams. The easiest clears will definitely come from Galbrena-Qiuyuan team and Phrolova-Cantarella team, as they can fully cash in on the bonus.

Galbrena	Qiuyuan	Shorekeeper
Phrolova	Cantarella	Shorekeeper
Cartethyia	Ciaccona	Chisa
Zani	Phoebe	Shorekeeper

Tip: The Augusta-Iuno team can also clear Mid Floor 3, primarily because it features the Questless Knight, and its Electric resistance is relatively manageable.

 

Echoing Tower (Right)

Environmental Effects

• Enemy Fusion RES decreases by 10%
• When Resonators cast Intro Skills, their ATK is increased by 20% for 15s. When Resonators cast Resonance Skills, their Resonance Liberation DMG is increased by 30% for 5s. Retriggering these effects resets their duration.

Enemy Layout (Floor 4, skip Floor 1-3)

Fleurdelys

Recommended Teams

Fusion comps are a strong recommendation.

Brant	Lupa	Changli
Galbrena	Qiuyuan	Shorekeeper
Carlotta	Zhezhi	Shorekeeper
Camellya	Sanhua	Shorekeeper
Rover: Havoc	Sanhua	Shorekeeper
