Wuthering Waves 3.6 Banner Lineup (July 2026)
Updated on 2026-07-27: Phase 1–2 lineup, signature weapon passives (multipliers still redacted), Echo inventory QoL, co-op event title, and exploration notes from the current 3.6 beta leak cycle. Qingxiao and Jingran names are official drip. Banner partners, kits, and numbers stay leak-tier until Kuro’s 3.6 special program.
Phase | New 5★ | Expected limited reruns | Expected 4★ rate-up |
|---|---|---|---|
Phase 1 | Qingxiao (NEW) | Denia, Mornye | Sanhua, Baizhi, Yangyang |
Phase 2 | Jingran (NEW) | Iuno, Hiyuki* | Mortefi, Yuanwu, Danjin |
*Beta boards label a Glacio Sword anniversary-tier rerun as Hiyuki. Some English trackers still list Sigrika in that slot. Treat the third Phase 2 limited as subject to change.
Estimated patch window: around August 20–21, 2026, after the six-week Version 3.5 cycle that opened July 10. Budget against that window until Kuro posts the date.
Combat roles at a glance
Resonator | Attribute / weapon | Role (leaked) | What you plan around |
|---|---|---|---|
Qingxiao | Aero / Sword | On-field Main DPS | Dual stance gauges, Tune Strain / Harmonized Offset, aerial sword riding |
Jingran | Fusion / Broadblade | On-field Main DPS | Max HP → ATK, Heavy Attack windows, self-shields, Liberation domain |
Denia | Existing limited 5★ | Sub-DPS | Tune Strain partner for Qingxiao |
Mornye | Existing limited 5★ | Support | Safe universal investment; strong Tune Strain enabler |
Iuno | Existing limited 5★ | Heavy Attack buffer | Core Outro partner for Jingran |
Hiyuki / Sigrika slot | Existing limited 5★ | Standalone carry (leaked) | High value if you lack a finished second DPS; name still moves in beta |
Pity math for your spreadsheet: 80 hard pity on a featured Convene, 50/50 on the featured 5★, up to 160 pulls for a hard guarantee (~25,600 Astrite).
Signature weapons (beta, multipliers TBD)
Owner | Leaked weapon | Main direction | Passive loop (placeholders) |
|---|---|---|---|
Qingxiao | Yunlang (Cloud Jade) | Crit Rate; ~587 base ATK cited in early boards | ATK up; stacks Aero DMG Bonus after Harmonized Offset; at max stacks, longer Aero bonus + Aero DEF ignore; Tune Strain friendly |
Jingran | A Thousand Crossings | Crit DMG + HP% | HP up; Resonance Skill / Intro grants temporary DEF ignore; gaining a shield stacks Crit DMG |
Numbers still sit behind? in beta text. Pull the Resonator first. Save signature weapons until the character is home and your second team clears endgame.
Expected launch teams
Kuro often parks BiS partners on the same patch as a new carry. In 3.6, Qingxiao’s Tune Strain board and Jingran’s Heavy Attack board can both hit your Astrite plan inside one six-week window.
Qingxiao premium team (Phase 1)
Slot | Resonator | Job |
|---|---|---|
Main DPS | Qingxiao | Aero Tune Strain carry |
Sub-DPS | Denia | Extra damage + Tune Strain utility |
Support | Mornye | Sustain / team enable |
Jingran expected team (Phase 2)
Slot | Resonator | Job |
|---|---|---|
Main DPS | Jingran | Fusion Heavy Attack carry |
Buffer | Iuno | Heavy Attack buff / Outro synergy |
Support | Shorekeeper (flex) | Heal / team buff; other general supports work |
Iuno is the sticky piece for Jingran. Shorekeeper covers the support slot on most accounts. The third Phase 2 limited becomes expensive if you already have a clear DPS and only came for Jingran + Iuno.
QoL, co-op, and map content expected in 3.6
Bucket | What beta boards say | Why you care |
|---|---|---|
Performance | Post-Mengzhou optimization pass aimed at frame stability and load times | Smoother play after the 3.5 map drop |
Echo inventory | Filtering, space, and UI cleanup scheduled “as early as 3.6” | Cuts daily Echo management time |
Team UI | 3D team menu targeted for a near-term build (earliest window: 3.6) | Presentation upgrade, not a pull decision |
Co-op | Featured co-op combat event If You Gaze Into the Abyss of Dreams | Co-op returns after a long gap for many accounts |
Exploration | Sword-riding exploration tied to Qingxiao’s kit fantasy | Extra map tools on top of the story expansion |
Story / map | New main story chapter + beta-confirmed map expansion | One-time Astrite and character intros |
How to plan your 3.6 pulls
Step 1: Pick one finished team. Write the exact three-slot goal (example: Qingxiao + Denia + Mornye) before Phase 1 opens.
Step 2: Count worst-case Astrite. One hard guarantee = 160 pulls. Two new carries back-to-back without 50/50 wins can ask for 320. Add each missing BiS partner as another 80–160.
Step 3: Hold through Version 3.5. Finish events, Tower of Adversity, and leftover Mengzhou / Xuanfang exploration while 3.5 is live. Cross-check who is still worth building on the Wuthering Waves beginner mistakes guide so you do not panic-pull mid-patch.
Step 4: Wait for the 3.6 livestream. Kits and banner order can move in beta. Lock pulls after Kuro shows kits and redemption codes.
Step 5: Convert Lunite only when you are ready to Convene. Unconverted Lunite does nothing across a version line. Convert when the banner you chose is live.
How to stock more Astrite before 3.6
Clear every limited event and exploration chunk while 3.5 is still up. New regions pay one-time Astrite that never returns. Start with the Xuanfang map guide if you still have chests on the board.
Run Tower of Adversity and Whimpering Wastes on schedule. Partial clears still pay.
Redeem livestream and permanent codes the day they drop.
If you spend at all, buy the Lunite Subscription first. For daily players, it is the best Astrite-per-dollar buy in the shop.

FAQ
When does Wuthering Waves 3.6 release?
Community calendars put 3.6 around August 20–21, 2026, after the standard six-week 3.5 cycle that started July 10. Kuro has not published the final date. Watch the beta client and the official special program for the lock.
Will Qingxiao and Jingran both run in 3.6?
Current drip + beta consensus puts Qingxiao in Phase 1 and Jingran in Phase 2 of Version 3.6. Some trackers still flip Mengzhou order with later patches. Plan for both names in the next two patches, then re-aim after Kuro’s reveal.
Why do people say 3.6 destroys F2P savings?
The expected reruns are the premium teammates for the new carries. Phase 1 lines Qingxiao with Denia and Mornye. Phase 2 lines Jingran with Iuno plus a high-value anniversary-tier DPS slot. Chasing new DPS plus full BiS in one patch burns far more than a single 80-pity target.
Should F2P pull weapons in 3.6?
Skip weapon banners until the Resonator you want is home and your second team clears endgame. Signature weapons are surplus spending when multipliers are still? in beta text.
Is Mornye still worth a rerun pull?
Yes for most accounts that lack her. She shows up again as Qingxiao’s expected launch support and stays useful outside that team. Pass only if Shorekeeper alone covers every team you field.
What QoL should you expect in 3.6?
Current boards push performance work after Mengzhou, Echo inventory optimization as early as 3.6, and a possible 3D team menu. Co-op returns with If You Gaze Into the Abyss of Dreams. None of that replaces a pull plan. Echo inventory alone still saves real daily time.
Conclusion
Wuthering Waves 3.6 Banner Schedule favors early budgeting. Qingxiao and Jingran headline Mengzhou, and the Denia / Mornye / Iuno / anniversary-DPS reruns punish anyone who tries to finish every premium team in one patch. Pick one finished lineup, bank Astrite through 3.5, then confirm kits on the livestream before you spend. Come back when we refresh this page after the official 3.6 program, and top up Lunites on BitTopup only for the banner you decided to finish.
