All Honkai Star Rail players know the Star Rail Pass and the Star Rail Special Pass. These items are used to pull rare characters and items from Honkai Star Rail Banners. In Wuthering Waves, there is no Star Rail Pass, but they have items that do exactly the same thing.
To pull special characters and items from the banners in Wuthering Waves, you will need three different items: Bright Tide, Radiant Tideand A Forging Tide. Lustrous Tide works like the more common Star Rail Pass, while Radiant Tide is similar to a Star Rail Special Pass.
What’s new here is the introduction of a weapon banner-only item. You need Forging Tide to draw from weapon banners in Wuthering Waves.
What are the names of the main characters in Wuthering Waves?
You are no longer a Trailblazer, you are a Rover. As is typical of gacha RPGs, you are given a choice of female or male Rover at the start of the game, and then you are dropped into the world of Wuthering Waves to find astrite instead of Star Power.
Honkai Star Rail players will likely pick up on the terminology very quickly as Wuthering Waves shares similar themes and names. For example, Credit in Star Rail becomes Shell Credit in Wuthering Waves, and Skill is Resonance Ability.
Although Honkai Star Rail and Wuthering Waves are not made by the same developers, there are clear similarities between the game – as much as there are between Genshin Impact and Wuthering Waves. Start your journey today, Rover!
