Carlotta Wuthering Waves Build Guide: Best Weapon, Echoes, Teams, Skills, and Materials

Carlotta Overview

Carlotta is a 5-star Glacio Pistols Resonator released on January 2, 2025. She is a burst-oriented Glacio main DPS with polished scaling, strong premium teammate options, and a damage profile that performs well in serious bossing and endgame content.

Carlotta is worth pulling if you want a premium Glacio carry with a more direct burst identity. She works especially well with Zhezhi, The Shorekeeper, and other premium supports that can stabilize her setup and improve her damage windows.

If you are preparing pulls or weapon resources, Topuplist offers a convenient recharge option through the dedicated Wuthering Waves top up page.

Rotation

Carlotta wants a clean handoff into a committed burst window:

Support setup -> Intro -> Skill string -> Liberation -> burst combo sequence -> Echo -> Outro

Materials

Material Type	What to Farm
Ascension boss material	Platinum Core x46
Local specialty	Sword Acorus x60
Enemy drops	LF Polygon Core x4, MF Polygon Core x12, HF Polygon Core x12, FF Polygon Core x4
Forte materials	Impure Phlogiston x5, Extracted Phlogiston x5, Refined Phlogiston x8, Flawless Phlogiston x11
Weekly material	The Netherworld's Stare x4
Forte enemy drops	LF Polygon Core x5, MF Polygon Core x5, HF Polygon Core x5, FF Polygon Core x9
Shell Credit	170,000 for ascension, 280,000 for one main Forte to level 10

Carlotta's material path is already stable on live servers. Sword Acorus and the Polygon Core line are the pieces worth overfarming first, because both disappear quickly once you start leveling multiple Forte nodes.

Final Verdict

Carlotta is a strong premium Glacio burst carry for players who want a straightforward damage dealer with good support scaling. She rewards polished setup and remains reliable in difficult content.
