Lumi is the latest addition toWuthering Waves’playable roster as an Electro Main DPS character. While other characters like Xiangli Yao or Calcharo share her element and role, Lumi plays differently, offering players an opportunity to experiment with unique team compositions while also enabling budget-friendly teamscomprised entirely of 4-star characters. Unlike her counterparts, Lumi’s kit emphasizes Basic ATK scaling, which impacts her synergies and optimal team setups, making her a distinct option for those who enjoy dynamic playstyles.
Here are Lumi’s best team compositions, tailored for different budgets and playstyles inWuthering Waves.
Lumi + Sanhua + Shorekeeper
The Best Lumi Team
Lumi’s best team composition closely mirrors Camellya’s, as both characters benefit significantly from Basic ATK buffs,making Sanhua one of her mostsynergistic teammates. Sanhua’s Outro Skill amplifies Lumi’s Basic ATK, and her minimal on-field time combined with a simple rotation ensures Lumi enjoys maximum uninterrupted on-field uptime to deal consistent Electro DMG. This pairing emphasizes Lumi’s strengths as a main DPS while adding utility to the team.
The third team slot is reserved for a healer or support character, with Shorekeeper being the ideal choice due to her versatile kit and status as the only limited-time healer in the game. Shorekeeper not only provides reliable healing but also team-wide buffs that enhance Lumi’s damage potential, making her invaluable in premium setups. For players seeking a non-premium alternative, Verina is a fantastic option. While Verina lacks the Crit Rate and Crit DMG buffs provided by Shorekeeper, she compensates with team-wide ATK buffs, making her a dependable choice for F2P-friendly or budget teams.
Lumi + Yinlin + Youhu
Coordinated Attack Enabler
For players aiming to build a team focused on Electro DMG, Yinlin emerges as the best partner for Lumi, especially for those lucky enough to pull her during her rerun while acquiring Lumi. While Yinlin doesn’t provide direct buffs to Lumi, her short off-field time as a sub-DPS allows Lumi to stay on-field longer, dealing continuous Electro DMG. This makes her a better option than Zhezhi, who requires more on-field time and offers less mobility. Additionally, Yinlin’s element synergizes better with Lumi, amplifying overall Electro-oriented strategies.
The final team slot can be filled by Youhu, who pairs exceptionally well with Yinlin. Youhu’s Outro Skill buffs Yinlin’s coordinated attacks by 100%, enhancing her sub-DPS potential. While Youhu’s longer on-field time and higher skill ceiling might pose a challenge, her healing and coordinated attack buff make her a worthwhile choice for players invested in Yinlin. This team composition creates a powerful Electro-centric setup that balances sustained on-field DPS from Lumi with Yinlin’s quick and impactful sub-DPS presence, further supported by Youhu’s utility.
Lumi + Yangyang + Baizhi
F2P Team
For players aiming to build an entirely F2P team withoutrelying on 5-star charactersor Sanhua, using Yangyang as a sub-DPS can be an effective alternative. Yangyang’s low on-field time and ability to group enemies with her Resonance Liberation make her a valuable choice, especially in scenarios requiring crowd control. Additionally, Yangyang’s energy regeneration capabilities allow players to shift focus away from energy regeneration on Lumi’s Echo sub-stats. While Lumi doesn’t rely heavily on Resonance Liberation or high energy regeneration compared to other characters, Yangyang’s utility is particularly useful for beginners, as she is provided for free early in the game. For those that are looking for a stronger sub-DPS and doesn’t need to rely on a F2P option, Changli can also work, as she can essentially fit many rotations seamlessly.
For the healer/support slot,Baizhi is the best and only fully F2Poption, as she is also obtained for free during the story. While Baizhi doesn’t provide the team-wide buffs seen in options like Shorekeeper or Verina, her Outro buff can still benefit Lumi if players transition into Lumi after Baizhi’s turn. This allows Lumi to stay on-field uninterrupted for extended periods, sustaining consistent DPS output. For new players just starting out, this F2P-friendly team is a practical and effective setup.
