Aero Erosion Guide and Tips




Aero Erosion Basic Info

Negative Status Effects
Wuthering Waves - AeroAero Erosion ・Aero Erosion inflicts Aero DMG on the target at regular intervals as long as it lasts, with more stacks resulting in greater damage.
・Can stack up to 3 times in total. The duration refreshes when a new stack is applied, and all stacks disappear when the duration ends.
・Damage is affected by Resonator Level, enemy resistances, and specialized buffs.
Only certain Aero attacks will inflict stackable Aero Erosion on enemies.

Negative Status Effects Explained

Deals Damage Over Time

Aero Erosion is a negative status effect that deals Aero DMG over time to afflicted targets. The damage scales with the amount of stacks the target has, maxing out at 3 stacks normally.

Aero Erosion Lasts for 15 Seconds

Aero Erosion Tooltip

Aero Erosion lasts for 15 seconds at base. Applying a new stack of Aero Erosion will refresh the duration of all active stacks, and all stacks will fall off once the duration ends. The effect deals Aero DMG at an interval of about 2 seconds over its duration.

Can Only be Applied By Certain Skills

Aero Erosion in Skills

Only specific skills that explicitly state that they can apply Aero Erosion will inflict the status. Simply dealing Aero DMG to enemies will not trigger stacks of Aero Erosion.

What Affects Aero Erosion Damage?

Affected By Unaffected By
・Resonator Level
・Amount of Stacks
・Enemy Defensive Stats
・Specific Buffs
・Resonator Stats
・Aero DMG% Increase

Aero Erosion is mostly affected by the level of the Resonator that applied it, as well as how many stacks are active on the target, and what the target's resistances are. Additionally, special buffs such as Ciaccona's Outro Skill can further increase Aero Erosion DMG.

Conversely, the applying Resonator's offensive stats, such as ATK or Aero DMG% Increase, will not affect Aero Erosion DMG.
