Alright, so I got wind of these things called Tidal Heritage locations scattered around in Wuthering Waves. Sounded kinda neat, figured there might be some good stuff or maybe just some interesting bits to see. Decided I’d spend some time tracking them down myself, you know, see what the fuss was about.
Starting the Hunt
First thing I did, obviously, was pull up the big map. Scanned it for anything obvious, like special icons or weird names popping up. Didn’t see much right off the bat, which wasn’t surprising. These kinds of things are usually tucked away, not just handed to you.
So, map wasn’t a direct help. Next, I thought, maybe talk to people? Went around some of the main hubs, chatted with a few folks, hoping someone might drop a hint, like mentioning strange ruins or weird energy spots. Got nothing concrete, just the usual chatter mostly. Can’t say that was super helpful either.
My Search Method
Okay, time for plan C: good old-fashioned legwork. The name “Tidal Heritage” made me think, well, water. Coasts, rivers, maybe lakes? Seemed like the logical place to start. So I picked a coastal region that looked kinda interesting on the map, lots of little inlets and cliffs.
I basically just started running around, keeping my eyes peeled. What I looked for:
- Anything that looked like old ruins, broken structures, stuff that didn’t quite fit the natural landscape.
- Glowing bits. Games love making important stuff glow, right?
- Weird rock formations or energy pulses. Sometimes games signal these spots subtly.
I also made heavy use of that scanner thingy, the sensor pulse you can do. Just spammed that every few seconds while I was exploring. Sometimes it highlights hidden chests or resources, figured it might ping these heritage spots too. Spent a good bit of time just running along beaches, climbing cliffs near the water, and pinging the sensor.
Finding the Spots
After maybe an hour or so exploring this one coastal area, bingo! Found one. It wasn’t super obvious, kinda blended in with some rocks, but it had this faint shimmer and a distinct structure when you got close. Felt pretty good to finally find one, you know? Proved they were actually out there.
Finding the first one gave me a better idea of what to look for. It was near the water, yeah, but also slightly hidden, maybe in a little alcove or behind a ridge. So, I kept that visual in mind.
My process then became more systematic. I’d pick a stretch of coastline on the map, travel there, and then sweep back and forth, going from the water’s edge inland maybe 50-100 meters, spamming my sensor and looking for those visual cues. Climbed a lot of rocks doing this.
It wasn’t always quick. Some areas looked promising but turned up nothing. Patience was key, honestly. Just had to keep at it. I started dropping my own custom markers on the map whenever I found one, so I wouldn’t forget where they were.
Eventually, I managed to track down quite a few of them this way. Mostly stuck to coastal regions, though I did check a couple of the larger inland lakes too, just in case. Took a fair bit of time, lots of running and climbing, but got there in the end. It’s satisfying finding things yourself sometimes, instead of just looking it all up online.
