Materials are very hard to come by in Wuthering Waves, and the daily Waveplate limit makes farming upgrade materials frustratingly slow. The game sells special bundles for real money in the store so you can bypass these restrictions, but are any of them even worth it?
Since Wuthering Waves is a gacha game, it’s only natural that it tries to squeeze money out of you at every opportunity. The store bundles are one of the most egregious examples of this, offering you a small handful of XP for your Resonators and equipment for a few real-world dollars. You can even spend as much as you would for 5-star characters solely on Shell Credits and other items that you can get just by playing the game, so what’s the deal with these Wuthering Waves store bundles?
Should You Buy Store Bundles in Wuthering Waves?
There are five store bundles available for purchase in the Special Offers section of the Wuthering Waves store.
- Traveler’s EXP Aid
- Sage’s EXP Support
- Gardener’s Aid
- Blake Bloom’s Aid
- Blake Bloom’s Data Aid
To be blunt, you really shouldn’t buy any of the store bundles in Wuthering Waves. They’re terrible value for the money, and any real cash that you put into Wuthering Waves should go to pulling new characters or weapons to help you clear endgame content more efficiently so you can earn more Astrite and materials in the long run.
Even if you need a quick XP boost to level up a Resonator or a weapon, you can just exchange Aftershocked or Oscillated Coral for some Resonance Potions or Sealed Tubes in a pinch. If you buy Lunite in Wuthering Waves, it should be spent on Tides. The only exception to this rule is whale accounts, but if you’re in that boat, you probably wouldn’t be reading this guide in the first place.
Yes, the Wuthering Waves grind can be excruciatingly slow at times. Don’t let the game frustrate you into spending more money than you have to, though. Stay strong soldier, and you’ll get the enhancement materials that you need in no time as long as you use more budget-friendly options like the Lunite Subscription or the Pioneer Podcast Battle Pass.
