Great For HP-Scaling Catalyst Users
Waveriding Whirl boasts a whopping 44% HP increase at R1 from its weapon effect, which is further by Hydro Resonance from the two-Hydro character requirement.
This is unconditionally effective on most healers as they can benefit from both HP and Energy Recharge, but this is also a viable DMG catalyst option for Neuvillette especially when paired with Furina.

Kokomi/Baizhu/Barbara can use this catalysto to reach 60k max HP for non-Nokrai Moonsign buff. The buff is snapshot after the HP increased but I'm not sure the buff duration is 20s or just 10s then reduced after the max HP return to normal.
