Should You Pull for Silver Wolf?

Support

Silver Wolf is a debuff support. She implants an extra Weakness that matches your DPS's Type, lowers enemy RES, cuts DEF on every enemy with her Ultimate and keeps spreading Bugs. If you already have a strong main DPS, she is worth pulling.

She suits players who already own a strong main DPS and want that DPS to work in more fights, even when the enemies don't have the right Weakness. Acheron teams like her a lot too, since Acheron wants more Nihility teammates.

Memory of Chaos Very strong Implanting the right Weakness and lowering DEF on every enemy makes your main DPS hit a lot harder.
Pure Fiction Good Still usable here, and if you want more personal damage from her in this mode, Before the Tutorial Mission Starts is a Light Cone worth trying.
Apocalyptic Shadow Very strong DEF reduction, RES reduction and a Weakness implant that follows your DPS's Type mean almost any team can bring her.
Pros & Cons

Pros

  • Impressively strong as an AoE sub-DPS
  • Brings impressive RES PEN for the Weaknesses she implants
  • A good Energy surplus
  • Very competitive with the other top-tier supports

Cons

Best Silver Wolf Build Guide

Debuff Support Build

Silver Wolf is a support first. Get her enough SPD and Effect Hit Rate before anything else. CRIT Rate and ATK only add to her own damage, so they are nice to have, not required.

Best Light Cones

  • 1 Lies Dance on the Breeze Lies Dance on the Breeze Best
    Her best Light Cone as a support by a wide margin. It raises her SPD, and her single-target Basic ATK or Skill lowers the DEF of all enemies by 24% for 2 turns. Stacked with her Ultimate's DEF reduction, that hits very hard. It works best once she has at least 170 SPD.
  • 2 Resolution Shines As Pearls of Sweat Resolution Shines As Pearls of Sweat Great
    A 4-star that is easier to get and still one of her top options. It lets her put an extra 16% DEF reduction on enemies. The DEF cut is weaker than the one above, but Silver Wolf usually has plenty of Effect Hit Rate, so it lands very reliably.
  • 3 Holiday Thermae Escapade Holiday Thermae Escapade Great
    A different angle from the two above: instead of DEF reduction, every target she hits takes 16% more DMG for 2 turns. It also raises her own damage.
  • 4 Before the Tutorial Mission Starts Before the Tutorial Mission Starts Good
    Gives Effect Hit Rate and regenerates Energy when she attacks enemies with reduced DEF, which is easy because her Ultimate already lowers DEF. Her Ultimate comes back much faster, but your team gets none of the damage amplification the other Light Cones bring. If you need both Effect Hit Rate and Energy, this is the easiest one to get.
  • 5 Incessant Rain Incessant Rain Stopgap
    Gives Effect Hit Rate and applies a debuff that makes the enemy take 12% more DMG. The catch is that the debuff only goes on after the attack ends, hits just 1 target per attack and lasts only 1 turn, so it has fallen behind the picks above.

Best Relics

1
Eagle of Twilight Line 4 Eagle of Twilight Line
Lets Silver Wolf advance her own turn after using her Ultimate, and her Ultimate comes around very quickly. You need pieces with decent SPD substats to hit the SPD breakpoints she wants. This 4-piece and the 2 + 2 combos below are all top choices, so use whichever set has the better substats.
2
Messenger Traversing Hackerspace 2 Messenger Traversing Hackerspace Sacerdos' Relived Ordeal 2 Sacerdos' Relived Ordeal
Two 2-piece SPD bonuses give her more raw SPD, which helps when you need to hit a specific SPD breakpoint. She can move before most enemies and implant a Weakness before your DPS attacks.
3
Messenger Traversing Hackerspace 2 Messenger Traversing Hackerspace Diviner of Distant Reach 2 Diviner of Distant Reach
Same idea, two 2-piece SPD sets. You can also swap one half for Warrior Goddess of Sun and Thunder, as long as those pieces have better main stats and substats.

Best Planar Ornaments

1
Lushaka, the Sunken Seas 2 Lushaka, the Sunken Seas
The pick that fits the most teams. It gives Silver Wolf Energy Regeneration Rate and boosts the ATK of the ally in the first slot, which should be your DPS. Best when that DPS scales with ATK.
2
Penacony, Land of the Dreams 2 Penacony, Land of the Dreams
Also gives Energy Regeneration Rate, but it is only really strong when she supports a Quantum DPS, especially in a Mono-Quantum team where the whole party gets the DMG boost. At E1 the extra Energy gets her Ultimate back even sooner.
3
Sprightly Vonwacq 2 Sprightly Vonwacq
Another set with Energy Regeneration Rate, with no damage boost for the team. In return it advances her action at the start of battle, so she almost always moves first and implants a Weakness before your DPS acts.

Main Stats

  • BodyEffect Hit Rate or CRIT Rate
  • FeetSPD
  • Planar SphereQuantum DMG Boost or ATK%
  • Link RopeEnergy Regeneration Rate

Substats

  • 1Effect Hit Rate (until you reach 50% to 67%)
  • 2SPD
  • 3CRIT Rate = CRIT DMG
  • 4ATK%

An Effect Hit Rate body makes her Effect Hit Rate breakpoint easier to reach. If you already get enough Effect Hit Rate from elsewhere, a CRIT Rate body adds to her own damage. On the Planar Sphere, take Quantum DMG Boost first, then ATK%. The Link Rope is Energy Regeneration Rate, and once you have E1 you can switch it to ATK%.

Effect Hit Rate and SPD matter most. Once those breakpoints are covered, the rest only adds to her own damage. Thanks to Side Note, every 10% Effect Hit Rate she has gives her 10% more ATK, up to 50%.

Stat Targets

  • Effect Hit Rate50% to 67%, with 67% (once her Traces are maxed) guaranteeing her Skill debuffs land
  • SPD160+, 170 with Lies Dance on the Breeze
  • HP3000+
  • DEF900+

Skill Priority

Skill, Ultimate, Talent > Basic ATK

The first three all matter. Leveling her Skill raises the chance to implant a Weakness and the All-Type RES reduction. Leveling her Ultimate raises its damage and the DEF reduction. Leveling her Talent makes Bugs stronger and more likely to land. Basic ATK goes last because she doesn't rely on it for damage.

Trace Priority

Generate > Inject > Side Note

Unlock all three early. Generate makes Bugs last 1 more turn and implants a Bug whenever an enemy is Weakness Broken. Inject gives 20 Energy at the start of battle and 5 Energy at the start of each of her turns. Side Note turns Effect Hit Rate into ATK.

Eidolon Priority

E1 is the best value

E1 Social Engineering: after her Ultimate, she regenerates 7 Energy for every debuff on the target (up to 5 times per Ultimate), so her Ultimate comes back very fast and you can switch the Link Rope to ATK%. E2 Zombie Network makes enemies take 20% more DMG and implants a Bug whenever an ally attacks them. E4 Bounce Attack adds extra damage to her Ultimate based on the number of debuffs on the target. E6 Overlay Network raises her damage for every debuff on the target, which helps if you want her to carry more damage.

Damage-Focused Build

Once Silver Wolf has enough SPD and Effect Hit Rate, you can push further into damage. Her Ultimate hits every enemy, so this setup is worth a try, especially at E6.

Best Light Cones

Best Relics

1
Genius of Brilliant Stars 4 Genius of Brilliant Stars
The set's built-in DEF shred stacks nicely with her own DEF reduction. It gets even better when the implanted Weakness is Quantum or when you fight enemies that are already weak to Quantum.
2
Pioneer Diver of Dead Waters 4 Pioneer Diver of Dead Waters
The alternative to the set above, for when you want to push her CRIT stats as high as possible. Use it if you don't have Genius of Brilliant Stars, your team already has enough DEF reduction, or you aren't facing Quantum-weak enemies.
3
Scholar Lost in Erudition 4 Scholar Lost in Erudition
One more damage option, with CRIT Rate and a large boost to Skill and Ultimate DMG.

Best Planar Ornaments

1
Inert Salsotto 2 Inert Salsotto
If you are fine giving up the Energy Regeneration Rate sets, this is the best offensive pick thanks to its CRIT Rate and Ultimate DMG boost.
2
Firmament Frontline: Glamoth 2 Firmament Frontline: Glamoth
The alternative to Inert Salsotto, and a decent one if she reaches the SPD this set asks for.

Best Silver Wolf Teams

Nihility Team with Acheron

Acheron Acheron Main DPS Silver Wolf Silver Wolf Nihility Jiaoqiu Jiaoqiu Nihility Gallagher Gallagher Sustain
Replace Jiaoqiu with: Cipher, Pela, Guinaifen, Luka Replace Gallagher with: Aventurine, Luocha, Gepard, Lynx

Acheron needs Nihility teammates to reach her full strength, and Silver Wolf applies debuffs so often that Acheron stacks Slashed Dream quickly. Jiaoqiu is another Nihility unit who adds Slashed Dream stacks, and Cipher can take his place. If you are short on 5-stars, Pela, Guinaifen or Luka (all 4-stars) can fill this support slot. For sustain, use Gallagher, Aventurine, Luocha, Gepard or Lynx.

Acheron Team with Mortenax Blade

Acheron Acheron Main DPS Mortenax Blade Mortenax Blade Silver Wolf Silver Wolf Nihility Hyacine Hyacine Sustain

Another take on the Acheron team, this time with Mortenax Blade along. Silver Wolf spreads debuffs so Acheron gets more Slashed Dream, and Hyacine covers sustain.

Quantum Team with Archer

Archer Archer Main DPS Silver Wolf Silver Wolf Nihility Sparkle Sparkle Harmony Dan Heng • Permansor Terrae Dan Heng • Permansor Terrae Sustain
Replace Dan Heng • Permansor Terrae with: Huohuo

Archer, Silver Wolf and Sparkle are all Quantum. Put Archer in the first slot and Silver Wolf's Skill will prioritize implanting a Quantum Weakness to match his Type. Since the DPS is Quantum, Penacony, Land of the Dreams is a Planar Ornament well worth considering for this team.

How to Play Silver Wolf

Her Skill Implants the First Slot's Weakness

Her Skill Allow Changes? adds 1 Weakness to one enemy that matches the Type of an ally on the field, prioritizing the ally in the first slot. The Weakness lasts 3 turns and lowers the enemy's RES to that Type by 20%, but if the enemy already had that Weakness, the RES reduction does not trigger. Each enemy can only hold 1 Weakness implanted by Silver Wolf, and implanting a new one replaces the old one. The Skill also lowers the target's All-Type RES by 13% for 2 turns. So just put your main DPS in the first slot.

Her Ultimate Lowers Every Enemy's DEF

Her Ultimate User Banned now hits all enemies instead of a single target. It has a 120% base chance to lower their DEF by 45% for 3 turns and deals Quantum DMG to all of them. It costs 110 Energy, but the Inject Trace gives her 20 Energy at the start of battle and 5 Energy at the start of each of her turns, so her Ultimate comes up fairly often.

Her Talent Keeps Spreading Bugs

Her Talent Awaiting System Response... gives her 3 kinds of Bugs: 10% ATK reduction, 12% DEF reduction or 6% SPD reduction. After every attack, she has a 100% base chance to implant 1 random Bug on the enemy she hit. Together with her Ultimate, Silver Wolf can lower enemy DEF by 57% all by herself. When an enemy carrying her implanted Weakness is defeated, that Weakness moves to another surviving enemy without an implant, prioritizing Elite enemies and above, so you don't have to spend her Skill again.

Open Fights with Her Technique

Her Technique Force Quit Program attacks the enemy right away. After entering battle, she deals Quantum DMG to all enemies, ignoring Weakness Types, and reduces the Toughness of every enemy. Enemies whose Weakness is Broken this way trigger the Quantum Weakness Break effect.

Quick Tips

  • Always put your main DPS in the first slot so Silver Wolf's Skill implants the right Weakness.
  • Once her Traces are maxed, 67% Effect Hit Rate is enough to guarantee her Skill debuffs land.
  • Lies Dance on the Breeze is strongest when Silver Wolf has at least 170 SPD.
  • With E1 you can use an ATK% Link Rope instead of Energy Regeneration Rate.
  • If Silver Wolf keeps moving after your other units, try Sprightly Vonwacq, since it advances her action at the start of battle.

Silver Wolf FAQ

Is Silver Wolf worth pulling?
Yes, if you already have a strong main DPS. She implants a Weakness matching your DPS's Type and cuts DEF and RES deeply, so that DPS can handle more fights. After her buffs, she is one of the top debuff supports.
How much Effect Hit Rate does Silver Wolf need?
Around 50% to 67%. 50% is enough for Side Note to give her the full 50% ATK bonus, and 67% (once her Traces are maxed) guarantees her Skill debuffs land.
Which Weakness does Silver Wolf implant?
One matching the Type of an ally on the field, prioritizing the ally in the first slot. That is why your main DPS should go first in the lineup.
Which Eidolon should you get for Silver Wolf?
E1 is the best value: after her Ultimate she regenerates extra Energy for every debuff on the enemy, so her Ultimate comes back much faster. E2, E4 and E6 are also good, especially E6 if you want her to deal damage.
Can Silver Wolf deal damage?
Yes. Her Ultimate hits every enemy, so her AoE damage is quite impressive. If you want to go that way, sort out her SPD and Effect Hit Rate first, then build into the Damage-Focused Build above.
