Stamina is one of the most essential gameplay mechanics in Wuthering Waves. Here is how you can increase it in the game.

Various activities in Wuthering Waves consume stamina, including combat, gliding, mountain climbing, and swimming. If you have low stamina, your character will keep falling down mountains or drown in water, making exploration difficult.

There is only one known method to increase stamina in the game. It takes a bit of work. However, if you play consistently, your stamina will be maxed out in no time.

Stamina is increased by leveling up your Data Bank in Wuthering Waves. You need an item called Force Release Component that is rewarded in the first 10 levels of the Data Bank.

Your starting Stamina is 140, and it can go up to 240 after collecting all the Force Release Components. Every Component will give you 10 Stamina.

How to level up Data Bank in Wuthering Waves

Data Bank is an important gameplay mechanic of Wuthering Waves

Data Bank can be increased by collecting Echoes in Wuthering Waves. Echoes can be found by defeating the monsters and bosses spread across the game’s world. Once you defeat an enemy, they will drop a shadow.

The Rover can absorb this shadow, which is turned into an Echo in the inventory. This will slowly level up your Data Bank, rewarding you with Stamina upgrades and more. If you are confused, Echoes in Wuthering Waves are similar to Artifacts from Genshin Impact.

However, the Data Bank provides more than just a Stamina upgrade, as the drops from bosses and your ability to absorb elite Echoes increases. For instance, you cannot receive a 5-star Echo until you reach Data Bank level 15. There are a total of 20 levels, and the bonuses after even 5 levels are as follows:

  • Level 5
