Changli Ascension Materials and Skills - Wuthering Waves Guide - IGN (2024)

Changli is one of the counselors to the Jinzhou Magistrate and the former Secretary-General of the city. She debuted in Wuthering Waves 1.1, introducing herself as a mentor to Jinhsi and a powerful Resonator who wields fiery Fusion powers.

This page is dedicated to Changli's Skills, Ascension Materials, and Forte Materials.

Changli Skills

Changli is a DPS character with an Outro Skill that boosts Fusion DMG. She can deal plenty of damage on her own from near and far thanks to the reach of her whip-like sword, but pairing her with another hard-hitting Fusion character would increase her team's overall effectiveness. You can read more about her best Weapons, Echoes, and Teams in our Changli build guide.

Changli Ascension Materials

You don't simply level up characters in Wuthering Waves. You also need to ascend them, which means raising their level cap with specific materials depending on the character. Level caps jump from 20 levels at a time in the beginning, and then 10 at a time later on. You need to ascend at level 20, 40, 50, 60, 70, and 80. The highest level is 90.

These are the materials you need to ascend Changli to Level 90:

Ringscome fromExiles, a.k.a. the human enemies wearing hazmat suits and masks. You can track them using the Echo Hunting tab of your Guidebook. Unlike Tacet Discords, they don't leave behind Echoes to absorb because they're people and not monsters. You can fuse lower rarity Rings into higher-level ones using a Synthesizer.

Rage Tacet Corescome from the Inferno Rider boss to the far east of Huanglong in the Sea of Flames.

Pavo Plum grows on Mt. Firmament, a new region introduced in Wuthering Waves 1.1. You won't be able to access it until you start Huanglong Chapter 1: Act 7.
