Lingyang Overview

Lingyang is a 5-star Glacio Gauntlets Resonator released on May 23, 2024. He is a field-time-heavy Glacio main DPS built around aerial combo uptime and sustained pressure instead of a single short burst window.

Lingyang is worth building if you enjoy a more mobile on-field carry and want a Glacio option that feels distinct from later burst-centered releases.

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

Kit Snapshot

Lingyang's core identity is sustained aerial offense. Once he enters his proper combo state, he wants to stay active and keep pressure up instead of constantly swapping out.

Shell Credit

170,000 for ascension, plus 280,000 for one main Forte from Lv. 1 to Lv. 10

Lingyang wants his main damage path online early, so most players should start with ascension, Forte Circuit, and core damage talents while farming Sound-Keeping Tacet Core, Coriolus, and the full Whisperin Core line.

Final Verdict

Lingyang is a more specialized Glacio carry, but he remains a solid option for players who enjoy sustained aerial gameplay and want a different style from later premium burst DPS units.

For players preparing Glacio teams, Topuplist and the dedicated Wuthering Waves top up page can make pull planning easier.
