▍Lily Overview
Lily is a 5-star Spectro character who wields Pistols. Rather than functioning as a conventional main DPS, she focuses on keeping teammates alive, grouping enemies, and increasing the team's damage through several complementary buffs.
Her kit provides multiple forms of utility, including healing during Heavy Attacks, passive healing through Resonance Liberation, interruption resistance, and emergency protection against fatal damage. She can also increase team ATK through Dream Aroma stacks and provide additional damage amplification through her Outro Skill.

▍Lily's Ascension Materials
Lily needs ascension materials to increase her level cap and reach Level 90. Her current reference data lists the following total requirements.
Material | Total Required |
|---|---|
World Boss Material | 46 |
Local Specialty | 60 |
Lowest-Tier Enemy Drop | 4 |
Second-Tier Enemy Drop | 12 |
Third-Tier Enemy Drop | 12 |
Highest-Tier Enemy Drop | 4 |
Shell Credits | 170,000 |
You should also reserve Shell Credits for leveling and ascension. Character leveling costs approximately 854,000 Shell Credits, while ascension costs another 170,000.
This brings the combined character leveling and ascension cost to approximately 1,024,000 Shell Credits, excluding Forte upgrades.
Which Ascension Materials Should You Prepare First?
Start by collecting resources that are already available and useful for general character development.
- Shell Credits: Save enough to cover both leveling and ascension.
- Premium Resonance Potions: Prepare enough character EXP items to reach Level 90.
- Enemy Drops: Check the final enemy drop family before farming large quantities.
- World Boss Materials and Local Specialties: Wait for the exact item names and locations to be confirmed before spending Waveplates or traveling to specific farming routes.
▍Lily's Forte Upgrade Materials
Upgrading Lily's skills is essential if you want to maximize her healing, crowd control, and team support. Her current material reference lists the following requirements for skill development.
Material Category | Total Required |
|---|---|
Shell Credits | 2,030,000 |
Additional Skill Materials | 25 / 28 / 55 / 67 |
The reference provides several material quantities through icons rather than readable item names. Therefore, the categories above should be matched with the corresponding in-game materials before farming.
Forte Material Farming Priorities
Lily's skill upgrades require a substantial investment of Shell Credits and several types of upgrade materials.
Prioritize the following preparations:
- Save 2,030,000 Shell Credits for the listed Forte upgrade cost.
- Stock up on general skill materials only after confirming the corresponding item names and required quantities.
- Check Forgery Challenge rewards once Lily's final skill material requirements are confirmed.
- Upgrade her most important skills first if you do not have enough resources to maximize every ability immediately.
For a support-focused build, prioritize her Forte Circuit and Resonance Liberation before investing heavily in lower-priority skills.
▍Lily's Signature Weapon Lullaby Materials
Lullaby is Lily's signature five-star Pistols weapon. If you plan to obtain it alongside Lily, preparing its upgrade materials in advance can help you avoid delaying your build after the banner arrives.
The following requirements come from preliminary weapon data and are subject to change.

Fractured Exoswarm Pendant | 6 |
Worn Exoswarm Pendant | 6 |

▍Lily Material Pre-Farming Checklist
Not every material can necessarily be farmed before Lily's release. Use this checklist to separate general resources from items that still need confirmation.
Resources Worth Preparing
- Save at least 3,053,300 Shell Credits for Lily's leveling, ascension, and Forte upgrades.
- Prepare 122 Premium Resonance Potions.
- Check your inventory for Combustors needed for Forte upgrades and Lullaby.
- Check your Exoswarm Pendant inventory if you plan to pull for Lullaby.
- Reserve enough resources to upgrade your preferred skills first.
Materials to Confirm Before Farming
- Lily's world boss material.
- Lily's local specialty.
- Lily's weekly boss material.
- Lily's common enemy drop family.
- Final Forte material quantities and names.
- Final Lullaby weapon material requirements.
The safest approach is to prepare Shell Credits, character EXP, and already-confirmed general resources first. Avoid spending large amounts of Waveplates on uncertain materials until the final requirements are available.
▍FAQs About Wuthering Waves Lily Materials
1. How many materials does Lily need for her skills?
Her current skill material reference lists 2,030,000 Shell Credits, several categories of upgrade materials, and additional materials with quantities of 25, 28, 55, and 67. Check the final in-game material list before farming to ensure each category is matched correctly.
2. What materials does Lullaby require?
Preliminary data lists four tiers of Exoswarm Pendants and four tiers of Combustors, plus 330,000 Shell Credits. The exact requirements should be verified against the final weapon data before committing resources.
3. Can I pre-farm Lily's materials before her release?
You can prepare general resources such as Shell Credits and character EXP items in advance. You may also collect materials that are already confirmed and available. However, wait for the final material list before farming Lily-specific boss drops, local specialties, or other unconfirmed resources.
4. Should I prioritize Lily or Lullaby?
If you mainly need a healer and team support character, prioritize obtaining Lily and building her core abilities. Lullaby can be considered afterward if your resource budget allows it. This approach helps you secure her primary team utility before committing additional resources to her signature weapon.
▍Conclusion
Lily's full build requires substantial Shell Credits, character EXP, ascension materials, and skill upgrade resources. Prepare general resources first, then confirm her character-specific materials before farming. If you also want Lullaby, remember to reserve additional Shell Credits and weapon materials.
