Shorekeeper is a limited five-star character in Wuthering Waves, and she is one of the best supports in the game! Shorekeeper is a spectro rectifier user who has her entire kit crafted for being a game-changing support; she can provide attack buffs, healing, and even crit damage buffs. You don’t want to miss out on this pretty character from the Black Shores. She is a must-pull for any Wuthering Waves player.
Farming Shorekeeper’s ascension materials is fairly simple; her boss mats are not heavily locked behind quests, and her overworld materials are easy to farm as well.
