InWuthering Waves,there are quite a few oddities in the world that can benefit players in the long run. Aside from the adorable dancing tortoise that revitalizes your HP, there are certain types of Echos that carry unique abilities and looks. Echoes inWuthering Wavesare a character stat set that can give them increased abilities. Resonators have a specific trait where they can equip Tacet Discords and enjoy using them in battle.
A unique class of these Echosare calledPhantom Echoes or Shiny Echoes. As the name suggests, they shine compared to others and are significantly a little more difficult to beat than the usual ones. As of Version 1.1, there are onlysixPhantom Echoes available. Two can be found in the overworld and four can be either bought from the points shop or obtained through the Tower of Adversity. Successfully defeating a Phantom Echo will reward players with the Trophy: Do You Believe In Light?
