Complete the Flight Tutorial
The player will now be able to fly in Jinzhou and Black Shores as part of Version 2.6's patch updates! The feature was teased on their Version 2.6 Trailer as part of a large level of changes and optimizations to the game!

How to Unlock New Flight Mechanics

Height Requirement Removed

Flight Module 3
Flight will not require anymore height to start! Just press your gadget key and you will immediately gain lift and start soaring in the air.

Do note that while height is not required anymore, you might still want to find an area with slightly elevated terrain to avoid being clipped to the ground should you not soar up immediately.

Flying Tips and Tricks

How to Launch From the Ground

Launch Combo
1. Jump
2. Plunge Attack
3. Immediately Cancel using Evade
4. Plunge Attack Again
5. Activate the Flight Utility

Note that starting on Version 2.6, this technique will lose its viability as you can now freely launch yourself without height limitations!

Increase Flight Stamina by Exploring

Fly Around
To increase flight stamina, players must continue exploring all the areas in Rinascita to 25% each. Each map completed to 25% provides a Boost Unit that increases the stamina when flying.

How to Use Flight

The Flight Mechanic is a new utility unlocked in Version 2.0. This allows the Resonators to soar the skies of Solaris-3 by consuming Flight Stamina.

There are two Flight modes available: regular Flight, and Ultra Flight.

Regular Flight

Example of Flight and using Stamina

To take Flight, press your Gadget key with the Flight utility equipped. You will be boosted by the Flight Module and start soaring in the air. Keep your character in ascent by pressing your Ascent movement key.

Diving and Ascending

You can ascend or descend while flying by using your movement controls. You can dive to gain momentum, so that your ascents are stronger or use boost yourself with Ultra Flight to gain speed when ascending.

Ultra Flight

Example of Ultra Flight using Stamina

Ultra Flight is a much faster version of Flight mode. This allows free reign over the direction you're flying too, but this greatly reduces your Flight Stamina as seen in the Stamina Bar partially going gray as it is being consumed.

Flight Stamina Consumption further increases when ascending, but decreases when diving.

How to Unlock Flight

Unlocks During Chapter 2 Act I

Wuthering Waves - Chapter 2 Act 1 The Sacred Breeze So Often Breathes Quest Guide

The Flight mechanic is automatically unlocked at a certain point during Chatper 2 Act I: The Sacred Breeze So Often Breather.

However you do not get to use this function properly until after unlocking Chapter 2 Act II: Veils Off in Sun or Shadow when Whisperwind Haven becomes accessible for the first time.

Chapter 2 Act 1 Quest Guide

Boost Unit: Flight Unlockable in Exploration Progress

Somewhere in the Exploration Progress in Rinascita, an item called Boost Unit: Flight can increase the maximum Flight Stamina while flying, allowing to remain airborne for longer periods of time.

How to Fix Flight Bugs

Switch from 120 FPS to 60 FPS

In the early days of Version 2.0, a bug in Wuthering Waves was discovered that makes it harder to turn while flying, if settings are using 120 FPS.

As a temporary fix, switch to 60 FPS in Settings to smoothen turns whenever in Flight. This has since been fixed in an update and Flight should be working as intended now.
