Wuthering Waves: All Nightmare Echoes Locations

Wuthering Waves Nightmare Echoes: A Comprehensive Guide

Nightmare Echoes are enhanced versions of existing Echoes in Wuthering Waves, significantly impacting Resonator usage. Superior to standard Echoes, acquiring them is crucial for maximizing character potential. This guide details what they are and how to obtain them.

What are Nightmare Echoes?

Nightmare Echoes are alternative variants of 4-cost (Overlord-class) Echoes, featuring unique active skills and a percentage-based elemental damage boost. This passive damage increase alone surpasses standard Echoes, allowing for a 441111 Echo composition by replacing a 3-cost Echo. Importantly, they retain the Sonata/Set effects of their regular counterparts, minimizing build adjustments.
