Daily missions consist of a set of missions available daily, with each mission completed rewarding players with points that can be accumulated to 100 everyday.

Simulated Field Challenges offer players a way for them to farm character upgrading materials, weapon upgrading materials, and the normal currency of the game. While Forgery Challenges offer players a way to get special materials that can be used to further ascend characters’ weapons and echoes.
These Challenges consist of a set of battles against certain groups of enemies, once cleared, players can spend their Waveplate (or their Energy) to obtain the rewards from the challenges. It is important to note that the amount of Union EXP and rewards are increased proportional to the main story and Union level progression of the players, with higher difficulty stages unlocking the higher the players’ Union level is.
Boss Challenges & Echo Farming
Boss Challenges are special world bosses that can be challenged on certain spots on the world map. These bosses are extremely difficult and players can unlock and challenge them once they have unlocked and defeated the bosses once during the game’s main story. These bosses, once defeated, will allow players to obtain a large variety of rewards, including materials that are needed to further ascend a character’s equipped Echoes.

Another important thing for players to do in the overworld is defeating the enemies roaming the overworld to farm Echoes. Once a certain amount of Echoes have been obtained, players will be able to increase the Echoes rank and obtain various rewards.
Beginners Guide - Important Tips and Tricks
Log In and Do Your Daily Missions Everyday
As with many other gacha games and open world games of the same kind, in order to progress quickly in the game and accumulate a large amount of premium currencies in order to roll for Resonators, players will need to log into the game everyday and do the daily missions to their fullest in order to obtain the various rewards available.
Due to the nature of Wuthering Waves being a gacha game, logging in daily to get the 60 Astrites from daily quests is one of the main sources of currencies that players can obtain to roll new Resonators. Therefore, players need to log in and do their daily missions as much as possible
Always Spend Your Waveplates
Waveplates function as an energy system for Wuthering Waves and is the one important factor that limits the players’ progress in the game, with Waveplates being capped at 240 at max and regenerate at a pace of 6 mins per energy. Due to these factors, it is of the players’ best interest to keep the Waveplates regenerating constantly to offer a flow of good energy that can be converted into rewards for the players.
Therefore, when logging into Wuthering Waves, players need to spend their Waveplates to avoid them being capped at 240. Players can challenge the Simulated Fields Challenges, Forgery Challenges or defeat World Bosses and claim the rewards in order to spend the Waveplates, keeping a steady supply of rewards and energy for smooth progression in the game.
Do Your Quests and Farm Echoes
Main story quests and side story quests offer the most amount of rewards and EXP in the whole game and is one of the ways Wuthering Wave keeps the players engaged in the world. Therefore, if players are stuck at what to do or are blocked off from progression due to insufficient levels, players can turn to completing main story and side story quests to obtain various exclusive rewards and large amounts of Union EXPs.
And finally, to prepare for future contents as well as strengthen their team for future challenges, it is important for players to start Echoes Farming as soon as possible to increase their Echoes Hunting rank and obtain various rewards in addition to obtaining special Echoes that can massively boost their team’s power in the long run.
