Best Youhu build in Wuthering Waves: Echoes, weapons, and teams
Youhu in Wuthering Waves is a new Glacio Resonator with a very interesting kit that allows her to be used in multiple ways. She can deal a decent amount of damage but also provide support by buffing the character with coordinated attacks, healing, and crowd control. However, her kit is RNG-based, as her abilities used during the battle rely on the "Antique," each offering different effects.
Therefore, Youhu can be played as a sub-DPS and support depending on the scenario. This article will provide a simple guide on how to build Youhu in Wuthering Waves.
