Drill Stage 4 Guide Lament Recon Solaris Soldier Wuthering Waves

This is a guide for Drill Stage 4 Realistic mode in the Lament Recon: Solaris Soldier event for Wuthering Waves 2.7. See the best character and weapons for Drill Stage 4, the best items, and tips on how to clear the stage here!

Drill Stage 4 Best Character

Ciaccona is Recommended

Ciaccona IconCiaccona Max HP ATK
120 62
Crit. Rate Crit. DMG
10% 10%
Effect
Cast Zephyr Symphony , continuously dealing Aero DMG to surrounding enemies, increasing their DMG taken and reducing their Movement Speed.

Ciaccona's initial weapon, Feilian Shock, shines in this stage as it can create a dangerous area where enemies can't enter, thanks to their Aero AoE damage.

The abundance of enemies can be alarming at certain waves, but the Feilian Beringal's continuous damage will kill them before they can touch you.

Recommended Character Upgrades

Character Stat Upgrade Priority
Ciaccona IconCiaccona 1. All Weapons +%Crit DMG
2. DMG Reduction
3. Max STA and Recovery

Ciaccona greatly benefits from weapon damage buffs, as this will kill enemies faster, which, in turn, prevents them from reaching you.

DMG Reduction, which makes Ciaccona more tanky, is crucial as you will be mostly stationary throughout the stage due to her playstyle. In the off chance an enemy slips through the Feilian Beringal's defenses, you will be at least tanky enough to survive.

Drill Stage 4 Best Weapons

Recommended Weapons

Weapon Stat Upgrade Priority
Feilian Shock Feilian Shock 1. DMG%
2. Crit. Rate/Crit. DMG
3. DEF Pen
4. ATK Speed
Sanguine Wheel Sanguine Wheel 1. DMG%
2. Crit. Rate/Crit. DMG
3. DEF Pen
Isomer Bolt Isomer Bolt 1. DMG%
2. Crit. Rate/Crit. DMG
3. DEF Pen

Feilian Shock will automatically be your weapon if you choose Ciaccona. It creates an offensive area that kills enemies, which is much needed in this stage, as an abundant number of enemies will come at you all at once.

Choose Sanguine Wheel at Wave 3 as it has a Synergistic Evolution with Feilian Shock. You will miss Feilian Shock's Ultimate Form if you pick any other weapon.

Isomer Bolt is the final weapon pick for this stage as it can cover long distances while dealing consistent damage. This covers what the Feilian Shock and the Sanguine Wheel both lack.

Best Weapon Combinations and Resonators

Drill Stage 4 Best Items

Recommended Items

Item Explanation
1 High-Stakes Gambler High-Stakes Gambler After five waves, this item will greatly buff your DMG and HP. While this item will make you more vulnerable before you get the buffs, your Feilian Shock will protect you!
2 Aggressive Investment Aggressive Investment Similar to the High-Stakes Gambler, this item will greatly buff your damage. You don't have to worry about the DMG taken increase as the Feilian Shock will protect you.
3 Aero Boost Aero Boost Feilian Shock, which is both your offense and defense, deals Aero damage. Getting this item will kill your enemies faster while strengthening your defenses at the same time!

These are the recommended items to purchase if you encounter them in the shop and have Enhancement Modules to spare. All three will buff your weapons by a significant amount.

Note, though, that it's suggested to prioritize weapons and character upgrades first before purchasing any items.

Drill Stage 4 Tips

Drill Stage 4 Recommended Tips




Run in a Small Circle

Ciaccona's playstyle requires you to stay stationary or run in a small circle. This is so the Feilian Beringals won't be too far from one another, as their strength is in their numbers.

If they are too far apart, enemies won't be killed fast enough, and they may damage you.

Lure Enemies to the Feilian Shock

If enemies do come close to you, lure them back to the Feilian Shock. Their continuous AoE damage will kill the enemy eventually!

Kill the Chest Mimics

At Wave 8, run for the seven Chest Mimics that'll spawn at the center of the map. Focus on killing the ones that are low HP and look for the rest and kill them as well! Count the Chest Mimics you've killed, as you may miss some that are hiding in the corner of the map.

Killing as many of them as you can is crucial in getting Feilian Shock and Sanguine Wheel upgrades.

Upgrade Feilian Shock & Sanguine Wheel

Prioritize buying Feilian Shock upgrades until it reaches Lv. 15. Afterwards, be sure to buy Sanguine Wheel upgrades until it reaches Lv. 15 as well! These are both crucial in order to get Feilian Shock's Ultimate Form which is only possible if both weapons are Lv. 15.

Killing as many Chest Mimics as possible in Wave 8 greatly helps in upgrading these weapons.

Be Careful of the Whiff Whaff's Beams

Whiff Whaffs will fire Aero shots towards you. Be careful of their shots as there's a chance you may get lost in the stage's visual clutter.

Watch Out for the Elite Enemies

1 How to Kill Elite Enemies

The elite enemies of this stage are the two Rocksteady Guardians, who appear on the 7th wave, and the Chasm Guardian, who appears on the last wave. Watch out for the Elite Enemy Icon to know their location on the stage.
2
Lure the Rocksteady Guardians towards the Feilian Shock while dodging their attacks. Their first attack releases a vertical wave of rocks, which can easily be avoided by dodging the red rectangular attack pattern. Their other attack involves them slamming the ground. Be sure to avoid the red circular patterns as well!
3
Similar to the Rocksteady Guardians, lure the Chasm Guardian towards your spawned Feilian Shocks. Dodge its initial powerful ground slam, as well as the multiple lightning streaks it summons. Stay near your Feilian Shocks until it eventually dies.
