· Building rotations in Wuthering Waves is a key element that greatly enhances a character's DPS.
· A simple rotation involves consistently repeating variations and finishers, while a complex rotation is a 'read-ahead' method that flexibly adjusts the sequence based on the situation.
· Rotations impact the entire party composition rather than just a specific character's performance, so this isn't limited to just one character.
· Practical footage is presented to show how rotations can vary depending on enemy types and the presence of buffs.

· Loopable Rotations: The most basic form, involving repeating the same actions.
· Non-Loopable Rotations: Rotations that require improvising action changes based on the situation.
· Very Difficult Rotations: Advanced rotations that are complex and their loopability is uncertain, requiring mastery.

· Lethal Blow (致死): Refers to the decisive moment in a game where the next attack or combo can definitively defeat an opponent. In other words, it's the finishing move.
· Considering lethal blows, if you can't defeat an enemy with a finisher, plan your rotation to attack a bit more to ensure the finisher succeeds.
· Analyzing Enemy Movements and Character Strengths: You need to adjust your rotation based on unpredictable enemy movements like teleportation, aerial movement, and dodges. It's crucial to minimize situations where your rotation breaks while dodging enemy attacks.
· This is similar to the concept of 'reading ahead,' where you predict the opponent's actions and decide your own actions accordingly. Through repeated attempts, you must build a rotation that allows you to effectively counter the opponent's actions.

· To create complex rotations, you first need to understand a character's powerful moves and swap timings. It's like studying; if you only know the theory without practice, you can't solve application problems.
· Step 1: Watch videos of skilled players.
· Step 2: Imitate and replicate the actions in the videos.
· Step 3: Try creating your own rotations.

· Flex: You can access it by searching on a search engine; it provides character ranking information. Select the character you want and apply the season filter to find relevant videos.
· Bilibili: A Chinese app, but its web version is usable in Korea. However, when searching, using the 'Trending' filter makes it easier to find desired results.

· Characters with limited rotation building options have the following characteristics:
· Short Duration: Skills or buffs do not last long.
· Low Support Damage: Support characters do not deal enough damage.
· Characters meeting these conditions (e.g., 'Jiyan') have low rotation freedom. Jiyan's Resonance Liberation duration is 10 seconds, and the optimal composition is limited to specific combinations. Support characters are not expected to deal high damage, and swaps must occur within a set number of attacks.
· Therefore, these characters often only have their initial rotations changeable, and simply imitating expert videos might be sufficient.

· It's important to understand 'Overtime (OT),' which can be utilized through motion cancels during quick swaps.
· For example, the OT between the 4th and 5th normal attack of a certain character is about 1.5 seconds. During this short period, you can perform additional actions (e.g., jumping) to maintain combat flow.
· You can construct your rotation by planning the next action using these OT times.

· Key elements for building rotations:
· 1. Understanding character performance
· 2. Considering lethal blows
· 3. Predicting the next action
· 4. Reading ahead (adapting to situations)
· 5. Referencing expert videos
· Mastering these elements will allow you to effectively build your own long rotations for challenging content like the Matrix or Ruins.
· Building rotations can be complex, but it offers great satisfaction upon successful completion, so we recommend trying to create your own.
