Wuthering Waves 3.7 Team Screen UI Guide: Features and Setup

To access the redesigned team screen in the Wuthering Waves Version 3.7 update, open the party setup interface directly from your main HUD or the pause wheel. The updated interface replaces static menus with real-time character entrances, dynamic lighting, and streamlined party swapping.

How to Set Up Your Team in the Updated UI

The Version 3.7 layout removes redundant confirmation prompts, allowing you to swap and reorder Resonators directly from a side drawer or horizontal tray.

Open the pause menu or select the Team Formation shortcut on your quick wheel.
Select any active Resonator slot to open the roster drawer.
Filter your characters by Element, Weapon Type, or Rarity using the top sorting bar.
Select the Resonator you want to field. The character immediately plays their entrance sequence into the chosen slot.
Reorder deployment positions (slots one through three) by dragging and dropping characters or using the one-touch quick-swap toggle.

When you exit to initiate combat, entrance animations seamlessly pause so visual transitions do not add open-world deployment delays.

UI Presentation Changes

The team interface introduces cinematic staging features that match in-game cutscene fidelity without adding loading screens.

Feature	Previous Interface	Version 3.7 Interface
Character Entrance	Static pop-in	Fluid walk-in animation with weapon drawn
Camera Control	Fixed angle	Dynamic tracking with zoom and pan capability
Lighting	Flat menu illumination	Real-time cinematic lighting matching model shaders
Idle Behavior	Basic repetitive loop	Unique personality gestures and weapon poses
Team Reordering	Slot-by-slot reassignment	Drag-and-drop or one-touch slot exchange

Managing Squad Presets

The interface allows you to save, rename, and cycle through multiple team presets to prepare for different combat encounters. Controller users can cycle presets using bumper taps, while mobile and mouse users can swap them with a single swipe.

Single-Target Boss Encounters: Reserve early preset slots for your primary damage dealer and dedicated buffers to quickly queue for Weekly Boss domains or Tactical Holograms.
Concerto Synergies: Group teams with complementary Concerto interactions together to prevent bringing conflicting elements into resistant domains.
Overworld Exploration: Keep an exploration squad configured with high-mobility Resonators and utility skills for efficient travel.

Rendering three high-poly Resonator models alongside dynamic staging lights increases GPU load compared to static screens. If you encounter frame drops or micro-stutters when opening the party screen on mobile devices or lower-tier PC configurations, reduce Shadow Resolution and Post-Processing in the main graphics menu.

The team screen is dedicated strictly to roster deployment, visual inspection, and preset management. Core character progression systems—including tuning Echoes, leveling Forte nodes, and upgrading weapons—remain in the dedicated Resonator character menu.
