Wuthering Waves: Best Suisui Teams for Every Negative Status Comp

The strongest lineups pair this Glacio support with damage dealers who stack negative effects, from Havoc Bane to Glacio Chafe.

The strongest lineups pair this Glacio support with damage dealers who stack negative effects, from Havoc Bane to Glacio Chafe.

Suisui is a 5-star Glacio Rectifier support in Wuthering Waves, and her entire value comes from teams built around negative status effects. She raises the maximum stack limit of statuses like Glacio Chafe, Havoc Bane, Spectro Frazzle, Fusion Burst, and Aero Erosion, then hands the incoming carry a stack of damage amplification and an attack buff that scales with her Energy Regen. She also heals, so she covers sustain and buffing at the same time.

Quick answer: Put Suisui with a carry that spams one negative status. Her two best homes are Yangyang: Xuanling + Chisa (Havoc Bane) and Hiyuki + Lucilla (Glacio Chafe). Build her to 260% Energy Regen so her buffs hit full strength.

All the best Suisui teams by negative status

Suisui slots into any composition that leans on negative status damage. She is best-in-slot for Havoc Bane and Glacio Chafe, and remains a strong pick for Fusion Burst, Aero Erosion, and Spectro Frazzle. The table below pairs her with the carries that make each status work.

Note: The Fusion Burst and Spectro Frazzle lineups want Suisui at her first Resonance Chain to run optimally. The Havoc Bane and Glacio Chafe teams work well even at her base version.


Havoc Bane: Yangyang: Xuanling, Chisa, Suisui

This is Suisui’s strongest team. Yangyang: Xuanling is the Havoc main DPS who rapidly applies Havoc Bane and then converts those stacks into damage buffs. Chisa doubles as a sub-DPS and secondary healer, adds more negative status stacks, and lowers enemy Defense. Suisui raises the Havoc Bane stack ceiling and lets Havoc damage ignore a slice of enemy Defense and Havoc resistance through her field.

Open on Suisui. Fill her Cloud Breath with Basic Attacks and Dodge Counters until you can cast Awakening Spring to switch stances.
Complete her Basic Attack string in Drizzle Stance, cast Song of Thoroughfare to drop Ceaseless Landscape, then Outro to hand over the buffs.
Play Chisa to deal damage, then trigger her Outro Skill to push the negative status stacks higher.
Swap to Yangyang: Xuanling. Run her Heavy Attack string, change stance to continue the combo, then chain Resonance Liberation, Resonance Skill, and a final Heavy Attack. The accumulated Havoc Bane sharply raises her output before you tap out.

Glacio Chafe: Hiyuki, Lucilla, Suisui

This lineup leans on Suisui’s own element. Hiyuki is the Glacio main DPS who converts Glacio Chafe into Glacio Bite to power up her attacks and hit multiple enemies. Lucilla is a quick-swap sub-DPS who shreds Glacio resistance and consumes Chafe stacks to trigger extra off-field stacks. Suisui heals, raises the Glacio Chafe ceiling with her field, and amplifies the team’s damage on the way out.

Start with Suisui to collect her team-wide buffs. Use her Echo Skill for extra damage and to apply more status effects, then Outro out.
Switch to Lucilla and cast her Resonance Skill to generate Photo stacks. Fire her Resonance Liberation and empty her Forte bar.
Move to Hiyuki, fill her Forte gauge, and cast her Resonance Skill to enter the Foreclaimed Self state. Run her Basic Attack string and re-cast the skill twice to reach her final form, then close with her Basic and Heavy Attack combo and Resonance Liberation.

Why Suisui only works in negative status teams

Her kit is tuned around debuffs. Her Resonance Liberation, Song of Thoroughfare, deploys Ceaseless Landscape for 30 seconds. Inside that field, applying Spectro Frazzle, Fusion Burst, Glacio Chafe, or Aero Erosion (or dealing that status damage) raises the target’s max stack limit for that status by 3 for 15 seconds. Electro Flare raises the ceiling for Electro Flare and Electro Rage, and Havoc Bane consumption lets Havoc damage bypass a portion of enemy Defense and resistance.

Her Outro Skill, Rippling Waters, grants the whole team 25% All DMG Amplification for 30 seconds. The more Floral Epistle she banks in Drizzle Stance before swapping, the stronger the follow-up effects become, including an attack boost for allies who consume negative status stacks. Outside of these teams she is a much weaker general healer than options like Shorekeeper, Mornye, or Verina, so she is only worth fielding when someone is stacking a status she can amplify.


Build Suisui to 260% Energy Regen first

Before any of these teams reach their ceiling, Suisui needs Energy Regen. She scales her buffs off Energy Regen and her healing off HP, and she does not need Crit or ATK. Her Resonance Liberation costs 175 Energy, so low regen wrecks her rotation.

Aim for 260% Energy Regen. Every 1% above 200% grants allies 0.2% more damage dealt (up to 12%) and 0.12% more ATK (up to 50%). Song of Feathered Trace is her best 5-piece set, with Forbidden Bastion as the main echo for the extra Healing Bonus. Her signature Rectifier, Firstlight’s Herald, provides the HP and Energy Regen she needs plus a team-wide ATK buff, while Stellar Symphony and the 4-star Variation are solid alternatives.

Once she clears the 260% threshold, her utility opens up almost every negative status comp in the game. Pick the carry whose status you want to abuse, hit the Energy Regen check, and Suisui will keep them alive while stacking debuffs faster than the enemy can shake them off.
