The release of Wuthering Waves version 1.3, “To the Shore’s End,” brings new events, locations, quests, enemies, and resonators to the game.
Alongside the introduction of new resonators and enemies, this version also features new echoes, including Fallacy of No Return and Phantom: Gullpuff and Lumiscale construct.
The Cyclone Swarm is a cluster of Cruisewings brought together by anomalous data, displaying a degree of teamwork.
Cyclone Swarm In Wuthering Waves
Located in the Tethys’ Deep, the Cyclone Swarm is a distinct group of Tacet Discords known for their teamwork.
After completing the “Hidden Between the Waves” quest of Act VIII, players unlock the new area of Tethys’ Deep.
Although individual Cruisewings are weak, they can create a powerful storm when they form clusters and combine their forces.

The swarm wields formidable abilities and should not be underestimated. Furthermore, their ability to heal one another makes them a difficult challenge to overcome.
In order to defeat the Cyclone Swarm more easily, players should focus on grouping them together. Resonators such as Jianxin and Xiangli Yao can assist in grouping the enemies.
Xiangli Yao, Rover, and a healer might be the optimal team setup for defeating the Cyclone Swarm. However, if you are confident in your abilities, any strong damage-dealer like Jiyan can be viable.
Once grouped together, the fight becomes straightforward, and defeating the Cyclone Swarm rewards players with three chests for the first clear.
Unlocking Black Shores Archipelago
In order to unlock the new area of Black Shores Archipelago, players must complete “From the Echoes of Destruction” Part One of Act VIII.
To begin “From the Echoes of Destruction“, fast travel to Guixu where you will meet and talk to Yanayang and Youhu.
Further, search for and talk to a Black Shore Researcher to obtain coordinates. Once you have them, head to the coordinates and defeat the TDs.
Once the TDs are defeated, a cutscene will play, and afterward, players will be transported to the Black Shores Archipelago.
Enter Tethys’ Deep
After getting cleared by the Tethys Terminal, use the Grapple Shooter to reach the top of the anchor.
Upon reaching the blue platforms, the POV will change to a side-scrolling platformer section. At this point, defeat abnormal TDs to cleanse the corrupted core.
Further, use the Grapple Shooter to reach the marked TD observatory. Defeat more TDs, and locate Zhenjian.

After cleansing the final anchor, speak with Aalto and then make your way to the Stargate in the lake.
Finally, enter the Stargate, which sends you underground to a new area within Black Shores known as Tethys’ Deep.
