Wuthering Waves Whirling Rapids Stage Guide

Whirling Rapids is the First Stage under the Phantasma Dreamland event in Wuthering Waves. See the Best Dreamland Echoes for Whirling Rapids, Blessing, Props for this stage, and tips to clear it here!

Whirling Rapids Best Dreamland Echoes

Dream of Devouring Echoes

Recommended Echoes
Dragon of Dirge Dragon of Dirge Lightcrusher Lightcrusher Kerasaur Kerasaur
Fusion Prism Fusion Prism Glacio Prism Glacio Prism Violet-Feathered Heron Violet-Feathered Heron
Gulpuff Gulpuff Spectro Prism Spectro Prism Havoc Prism Havoc Prism

Dream of Devouring is an attribute that offers a reliable source of massive earnings, provided your board is properly balanced. While Devouring boards can scale aggressively, they also carry the risk of consuming their own growth potential if left unchecked. Be sure to monitor your Echo population carefully to avoid cutting off your resources!

A standout unit to watch for is the Lightcrusher, a powerful Echo capable of carrying your entire board. It can be a strong substitute, if not superior, to the Dragon of Dirge, thanks to its ability to massively scale the Coupon yield of Echoes it absorbs.

Whirling Rapids Best Blessing

Equip Transience

Select Transience Blessing

Transience is a universally excellent Blessing that will also do very well on a Devouring board. This ability is best activated on the Third Day of each phase as its effects last for three days total, giving you a sizeable income boost as each phase comes to a close.

Whirling Rapids Best Props to Get

Prop Explanation
1 Figurine: Excarat Figurine: Excarat An excellent Prop which grants you extra income whenever one of your Echoes devour another. Since most units in this stage are bound to do this frequently, buy this prop when it appears in the Shop!
2 Time Mailbox Time Mailbox A good Prop which increases the amount of Echoes on the board after a period of time. This is good to have for a devouring-focused board as it passively generates fodder for your devourers, especially if you can get it early!
3 Surprise Box Surprise Box Generally good utility Prop, allowing you to recruit a total of three new Echoes for free which will be useful in later stages as you'll likely need a consistent stream of Echoes to devour.

These three Props are must-buys from the Shop if you have spare Frequency Crystals to spend. Figurine: Excarat generates additional Coupon Income whenever a Devouring action is triggered, making it an excellent pick for maximized Coupon yield.

On top of that, Time Mailbox and Surprise Box offer a reliable source of fodder for your Devourer units, helping maintain a steady population of consumable Echoes.

Whirling Rapids Stage Tips

Phantasma Dreamland Event Guide



Manage Your Consumable Echoes

Wuthering Waves Manage Your Consumables

The biggest challenge of a Devouring board is balancing your Devourer and consumable Echoes as overpopulation can stall your income. Prisms make ideal fodder thanks to their beneficial effects, though their random placement can limit efficiency.

Among them, Glacio Prisms are the most valuable, boosting adjacent Echoes' Coupon Yield by 2 upon being consumed. Havoc Prisms also shine by granting 5 Coupons when any Echo next to them is devoured. Aim to keep Prisms at roughly 70% of your board to maintain a steady flow of fodder for your Devourers.

Limit Devourers Present

Wuthering Waves Limit Devourers Present

To maintain a stable board, limit the number of Devourer Echoes present. Echoes like Violet-Feathered Heron and Lightcrusher can easily consume all your Consumable Echoes if overpopulated, so be sure not to over-recruit them!

We recommend limiting your Violet-Feathered Herons to two at most, and keeping only one Lightcrusher at all times. Any more than this may potentially create a shortage of fodder on your board and hinder your Devourers' growth.

Have Fodder Generators

Wuthering Waves Have Fodder Generators

Fodder generators like Fusion Prism, Gulpuff and Kerasaur play a vital role in sustaining your Devourers. Fusion Prisms and Gulpuffs are great in early phases but risk being consumed themselves, while Kerasaurs provide more stable fodder generation thanks to their immunity to being devoured.

However, since Kerasaurs can't be consumed, we recommend keeping only 1-2 on the board in later phases to avoid clogging space.

Aim For the Lightcrusher

Wuthering Waves Aim For the Lightcrusher

The Lightcrusher is arguably the strongest Devourer Echo as it is able to gain 110% of it's consumed Echo's Coupon yield. With the potential to devour up to 4 Echoes per turn, it can generate massive income fast. If it appears in your recruitment pool, be sure to grab it immediately!
