As the 36th Head of the Fisalia family, Cantarella is a force to be reckoned with within the land of Rinascita. She comes with an enticing personality and alluring abilities that are sure to leave a tingling impression. She’s a 5-Star Havoc Resonator in Wuthering Waves that wields a Rectifier on the battlefield, and what she brings to the table may be more than what meets the eye.
Similar to characters like Brant, she brings a unique mixture of offensive and supportive capabilities that aid her teammates in battle. She functions perfectly as a Healer, Support or Sub DPS. However, this all depends on how you plan to build her, and so assigning the correct Cantarella build in Wuthering Waves is rather crucial.

Cantarella Best Echo In Wuthering Waves
Now, Cantarella’s Build in Wuwa is a little different when comparing it to other characters. Depending on the teammates you hope to use with her, you will need to coordinate your build as such. If you plan to play Cantarella with a Havoc Main DPS, it’s best to equip her with Nightmare: Impermanence Heron or Lorelei (preferred). This also means you need to make sure she’s on the Midnight Veil set to reap the bonus of the incoming Havoc DMG that she’ll give the Main DPS. This is also the strongest set you can equip on her if you’re looking to deal some personal damage as well. Thus, make sure to have Crit Rate or Crit DMG as your base to maximize her Support/Sub-DPS abilities.
If you plan on using Cantarella with a different Main DPS, you’ll need to switch your Main Echo and completely change the Echo set. She works best with Hecate on an Empyrean Anthem set and, to be quite frank, it’s the best Support set available for her in this situation. It gives Resonators a boost to their Energy Regeneration and helps coordination with the rest of the team. However, you should know that using the Empyrean Anthem set with Hecate depends on how much you plan to invest on building Cantarella and her teammates.
If your Main DPS is built near perfect, then you need to make sure you invest enough time into Cantarella as well to reap the benefits of the Empyrean Anthem set. Basically, the better your Cantarella is built, the better your Empyrean Anthem set on her becomes. However, if you want to make things easier, simply go for the Moonlit Clouds set and use Impermanence Heron – but this is only if your Main DPS is built well. Because if your Main DPS is built well, the better the Moonlit Clouds set shines on Cantarella.
Cantarella Best Weapons In Wuthering Waves
Without a doubt, Cantarella’s best weapon is Whispers of Sirens. This is her signature weapon and has a 500 Base ATK, with 72% Crit DMG. But, the important factor in her weapon is the passive skill being perfectly tailored to her kit. It boosts her personal damage immensely and allows Cantarella to ignore Havoc resistance of enemies.
Your next best option is the Stringmaster. This weapon has the same stats as Cantarella’s best-in-slot, but instead it also gives her a boost in ATK percentage when dealing Resonance Skill DMG. This is perfect since players can time the effects of this boost well when Cantarella enters her Mirage state. When in the Mirage state, make sure to use her Resonance Skill and get this DMG boost.
Next up, you have Rime-Draped Sprouts and Cosmic Ripples. Rime-Drapes Sprouts works similarly to the second b-i-s, as it gives Cantarella a Basic Attack DMG Bonus whenever she uses her Resonance Skill. If you do have Rime-Draped Sprouts, make sure to time the intervals between each skill swap that Cantarella does, before hitting Mirage and going on the offensive. Cosmic Ripples is your third best-in-slot as it increases her Energy Regeneration and Basic Attack DMG. This weapon is arguably as good as her limited-time one due to how well it synergizes with her kit.
If you don’t own any of these 5-Star Rectifiers, you can always go for the Augment at R5 that players can obtain through the Battle Pass. It’s a pretty decent 4-star as it gives Cantarella quite a large amount of ATK percentage after she casts her Resonance Liberation. Since her Resonance Liberation is used pretty early on in her rotation, this is a great weapon to use if you plan to build her as a Sub-DPS.
Finally, your last choice would be Fusion Accretion as it also gives Cantarella a high Base Attack after using Resonance Skill DMG. Additionally, it increases her Resonance Energy and makes up for Cantarella’s large Energy Regeneration requirements.

Cantarella Forte Priority In Wuthering Waves
Although the priority of Cantarella’s skills does depend on how you plan to build her, her Forte Circuit reigns supreme no matter what. It delivers increased damage output as its main plug is the enhanced multiplier of Perception Drain. It improves her survivability in combat amazingly well. Next, you’ll want to focus on upgrading her Resonance Liberation, since most of your rotations will start with that first. It greatly amplifies the damage of her coordinated attacks.
