How to get Calcharo in Wuthering Waves

Previously, the only way to get Calcharo was to use the Beginner's Choice Convene or Standard Character Convene banners.

Thanks to free gacha pulls, a five-star character selector, and other goodies from developer Kuro Games in the wake of ongoing issues in the game, you can easily get Calcharo if you haven't already.

The best weapon for Calcharo in Wuthering Waves is the five-star Broadblade, Lustrous Razor, which increases Energy Regeneration and Resonance Release DMG while providing a massive ATK% increase through its substat.

That said, while Jiyan's signature weapon, the Verdant Summit, is also a great choice for Calcharo, the Lustrous Razor comes out on top when you compare the raw damage numbers of both weapons at S1.

Now, when it comes to a four-star Broadblade, the best for Calcharo is the Autumnrace, as it provides a substat based on CRIT rate while increasing ATK%.

We recommend opting for the weapons mentioned above. However, if you don't have them, you can also use them:

The best Echo set for Calcharo is Void Thunder, as it greatly improves Electro DMG when you have all five pieces equipped.

On the other hand, the Lingering Tunes Echo set increases ATK% significantly, making it yet another great option.

Here is the best Echo suit we recommend using on Calcharo:

ECHO SLOT	ECHO	STATUS PRIORITY

2	Purple Feathered Heron	Electro DMG Bonus
3	Flutist	Electro DMG Bonus
4	Electro Predator	ATK%

While the above Echo combination is best for Calcharo, except for the first slot, you can use other Echoes in slots 2-5 as long as you focus on the given stat priority.
