How to Get Shorekeeper Ascension Materials
Shell Credits
Shell Credit is the primary currency in Wuthering Waves. You will need it to level up characters and enhance Fortes. You can obtain Shell Credits through several methods:
Main and Side Quests: Completing story quests grants several thousand Shell Credits per chapter.
Daily Commissions: Finishing all daily activities provides a consistent income.
Events and Redeem Codes: Limited-time events and official codes often give the largest Shell Credit rewards.
Exploration Chests: Opening world chests and hitting exploration milestones also yield Shell Credits.
Whisperin Cores (LF / MF / HF / FF)
You can obtain Whisperin Cores by defeating Whisperins, a common humanoid mechanical enemy type. They appear as either standing humanoid machines or floating armored cores.
The most efficient farming method is to teleport to the Forbidden Forest Resonance Beacon, then clear out the Whisperins spread across the area. Each full rotation takes about five minutes, and the enemies respawn quickly. You can normally defeat 10–15 Whisperins per run.
To improve efficiency, consider cooking foods such as Fermented Tofu or Crispy Radish Cake beforehand. These temporarily increase your attack power, helping you collect more materials per cycle.
Topological Confinement
Another key material, Topological Confinement, is dropped by the world boss No Way Out’s Fallacy, introduced in version 1.3. You can find this boss in the Data Turbulence Zone of the Black Shore region.
The easiest route is to fast travel to the nearest Resonance Nexus, then follow the boss icon on the map. Each kill costs 60 Waveplates and drops 1 to 3 Topological Confinements, with slightly better drop rates on higher World Levels.
Nova
The fastest farming route starts from the Energy Nexus teleport point, then moves clockwise along the coastline through the Tethys Rift area. You can usually collect 60 to 80 Nova within about fifteen minutes. Nova respawns every 48 hours in real-time.
Alternatively, you can purchase Nova from the Kuro Store once you complete the side mission “Hidden Tide.” Some events and exploration chests may also reward Nova occasionally.
Helix Materials (Lento / Adagio / Andante / Presto Helix)
All four types of Helix materials—Lento, Adagio, Andante, and Presto Helix—can be obtained from the Forgery Challenge “Mist Forest.”
Just open your Guide, select the challenge under the “Helix” category, and fast travel to begin farming. Each run costs 40 Waveplates and drops random Helix materials. Higher difficulty increases the chance of obtaining higher-tier items.
Sentinel’s Dagger
You can challenge the weekly boss Jué up to three times per week, and each successful clear rewards one Sentinel’s Dagger along with other rare drops.
Each attempt costs 60 Waveplates, so plan your Stamina wisely to make sure you have enough for your other weekly activities.
Note: Sentinel’s Dagger can only be obtained from the weekly challenge “Clash of Fate,” located in the Bone Mountain area near the Dragon’s Pinnacle Lighthouse in Huanglong.
Conclusion
The guide above outlines every source of Ascension and Forte materials needed for Shorekeeper. If you plan to build her, it’s best to start farming early to make the leveling process smooth and efficient.
And if you want to accelerate your progress—such as obtaining more resources or pulling characters faster—you can top up Lunite on GamsGo. It offers safe, fast, and affordable options to support your Wuthering Waves journey. Wishing you success in creating the strongest Shorekeeper and exploring the world of Huanglong with ease.
