Wuthering Waves - Solaris Soldier Drill Stage 3 Guide

This is a guide for Drill Stage 3 Realistic mode in the Lament Recon: Solaris Soldier event for Wuthering Waves 2.7. See the best character and weapons for Drill Stage 3, the best items, and tips on how to clear the stage here!

Drill Stage 3 Best Character

Rover (Aero) Tutorial Character

Rover (Aero) IconRover (Aero) Max HP ATK
100 58
Crit. Rate Crit. DMG
10% 30%
ATK Bonus Movement Speed
0% 200
Effect
Cast Breeze Breaker , dealing Aero DMG to surrounding enemies. For a short duration, Movement Speed is increased, and the Resonator gains DMG bonus based on the Movement Speed Bonus.

This level introduces the Aero Rover as the next playable character available for selection in this game mode. Their weapons, while initially slow, can pierce through multiple enemies and lined-up mobs before they can even get close.

Recommended Character Upgrades

Character Stat Upgrade Priority
Rover (Aero) IconRover (Aero) 1. All Weapons +ATK%/DMG%
2. Movement Speed
3. Pickup Range
4. Max STA and Recovery

Aero Rover will take advantage of Weapon ATK and Increased DMG for their weapons, while Movement Speed allows Rover to go faster and avoid fast mobs. Last priorities for upgrade are Pickup Range and STA Recovery, as they are less important than gaining damage or moving faster in this gamemode.

Drill Stage 3 Best Weapons

Recommended Weapons

Weapon Stat Upgrade Priority
Zenith Windblade Zenith Windblade 1. DMG% (Attack & Crit)
2. Attack Speed
3. DEF Penetration
Glittering Ray Glittering Ray 1. DMG% (Attack & Crit)
2. DEF Penetration
3. Attack Speed

Use Zenith Windblade and prioritize DMG Multipliers and Crit DMG to immediately gain damage against enemies, while also focusing on Attack Speed to improve the fire rate of the Windblade as it is relatively slow.

Later, you gain access to Glittering Ray, which has a Synergistic Evolution with Zenith Windblade at Weapon Level 15, combining your weapons and increasing their effectiveness. This weapon will follow a similar upgrade priority with Zenith Windblade to gain as much damage as possible to dish against targets.

Best Weapon Combinations and Resonators

Drill Stage 3 Best Items

Recommended Items

Item Explanation
1 Spectro Boost Spectro Boost Spectro Boost provides an upgrade to piercing weapons and synergizes with Glittering Ray, allowing it to gain 50% more damage.
2 Aero Boost Aero Boost Aero Boost upgrades Aero-based weapons and can be used to increase Zenith Windblade's damage by 50%.

The only items we can recommend for this stage are the Spectro Boost and the Aero Boost for both weapons used by Aero Rover. Otherwise, we advise focusing on Weapon and Character Upgrades as they are better taken than items on this stage.

Drill Stage 3 Tips

Drill Stage 3 Recommended Tips





Take Out All Chest Mimics You Can at Wave 8

At Wave 8, you will be introduced to Chest Mimics, they scatter from the center of the map and is a target priority as they give you free upgrades if eliminated! You will easily end 6-8 Chest Mimics in this round by prioritizing them over regular mobs.

After the round, you will be able to see how many upgrades you acquired based on the number of mimics you took down.

Prioritize Upgrading Weapons to Level 15 and Acquire Synergistic Evo

The prior tip is important as it allows you to easily reach Level 15 with both of your weapons, allowing you to access Synergistic Evo and combine both of your weapons for higher damage and better area spread.

This is crucial in taking out the huge Rocksteady Guardian at Wave 10 in less than 60 seconds. The Level 15 weapons will melt through the elite's HP and end the round immediately.

Pick DMG and Attack Stats After Each Wave

Choose ATK
Despite the multiple upgrades available to you, you will only need the DMG and Attack-related options to your weapons and characters, as they provide the most cost-effective measures at taking down enemy waves.

Other upgrades will be second priority after weapon and character damage, as the mobs aren't oppressive enough to be a threat in this level.

Circle Around Enemies While Firing to Line Them Up

Remember to circle around enemies when using Aero Rover as this allows you to line them up in a semi-horizontal position, one-shotting and penetrating the mobs. This compensates for the initial slow fire rate of their weapon while dealing the most damage possible.

Use Your Skill Constantly to Gain Buffs

Breeze Breaker
Use Aero Rover's Skill, Breeze Breaker as soon as it's ready, as this provides them a free movement speed and DMG buff after deployment. This is basically a free buff, so remember to activate it!

Sprint and Maintain Distance From Enemies

Always keep a safe distance away from enemies to avoid getting pelted with damage. Use your Dash and Sprint from enemies whenever you are weaving into their attacks and collecting coins to avoid getting hit.
