Version 1.1 of Wuthering Waves introduced Mt. Firmament, and with it came a hefty batch of achievements that still matters to completionists in 2026. The reward type is Astrite, and while each achievement may only offer a small payout, the total haul from exploration, combat, and odd jobs is nothing to ignore. After all, why leave free pulls on the table? To reach Mt. Firmament, a player must begin and follow the main quest chain Jinzhou Rising, Huanglong I - Act 7. That one story route unlocks most of the new area and leads directly to the achievements for Reaching Mt. Firmament and completing Thaw of Eons. Completing Changli's Companion Story, Immortal Blaze, adds another easy checkmark.

Exploration and Puzzle Achievements in Mt. Firmament

One of the first easy wins is the hot spring achievement. At Sagaci Springs, simply soak a character once and the achievement pops. Another low-effort task is interacting with any animal—Jinzhou City is full of cats and dogs. The Leap Device achievement is just as simple: find the device, step on it, and get launched.

Chronosorter is tied to the main quest and should come naturally. The Photon Barrier achievement requires destroying a golden Photonvault linked to a barrier to free the enemy inside; follow the golden thread. For Clang Bang Echo Challenges, a player transforms into Clang Bang, reads the ice cube pattern, and sits in the correct slot while facing the right direction. Completing one challenge grants an achievement, and completing all 12 grants another. The 12 blue star markers make them easy to locate.

Exploration progress is also tracked. After exploring Mt. Firmament, visit Maqi at the Pioneer Association in Jinzhou City to upgrade Pioneer Level to 10. Collecting all Windchimers is a longer task, but they are exclusive to Mt. Firmament and can be hit with a Basic or Ranged Attack. Players can exchange them at Xian'ge. The Mirrored Loong's Pearl exploration quest starts automatically near Xuanji Ridges. Crushing 20 ice blocks is easier if a player checks around Frostbugs. Two Resonance Nexuses in Hongzhen and a small Resonance Beacon at the dragon head of Loong's Chest round out the area unlocks.

Enemy, Boss, and Combat Achievements

Mt. Firmament adds several red elite enemies. Defeating Mighty Lightcrusher, Construct: Protective Scales, Icefield Beast, and Frigid Clang Bang each gives an achievement. Frostbugs are trickier because they require a ranged attack on their weak point. There are only 10 Frostbugs in Version 1.1, and defeating all of them is its own achievement. The 20 Frostbug kills achievement has been a known headache: even after clearing all 10, the counter may not move, pointing to a bug or mistranslation. If developers have since fixed it in 2026, players can test by revisiting spawn locations, but the original community consensus was that something was off.

Boss-kill achievements include defeating Jue once and 50 times, Dreamless once and 50 times, Lumiscale Construct 20 times, Lava Larva 20 times, Dwarf Cassowary 20 times, Lightcrusher 20 times, Glacio Dreadmane 20 times, and 66 Clang Bangs. The Thundering Mephis achievement is not new; it was renamed from Recoil: Tempest Mephis to Recoil: Thundering Mephis. To earn it, use Thundering Mephis's Echo Skill to land the killing blow on Thundering Mephis.

Tower of Adversity and Tactical Hologram

Endgame players have achievements for clearing the final level in any Tower of Adversity: Hazard Zone within 2 minutes, letting the entire team lose consciousness 10 times, and claiming all Crests in Hazard Zone three times in a row. In Tactical Hologram, the Ski challenge offers the highest reward achievement, while Crownless I and Crownless VI in Calamity mode each have their own.

Character Outro Skill Grind

One of the grindiest sections asks players to use Outro Skills 100 times for each of the following characters: Rover: Spectro, Rover: Annihilation, Jianxin, Jinhsi, Chixia, Danjin, Sanhua, Taoqi, Yangyang, Yinlin, Verina, Encore, Baizhi, Lingyang, Mortefi, Yuanwu, Jiyan, Aalto, Calcharo, and Changli. This is best done in low-level combat domains or open-world camps while cycling characters.

Utility and Miscellaneous Achievements

Daily-life achievements include concocting a potion 100 times at a Synthesizer, taking a picture 10 times, and preparing a meal 5 times at Panhua Restaurant or any stove. Gear-focused achievements require reaching weapon Breakthrough Rank 6 for the first time, lowering SOL3 Phase once from the menu, absorbing an Overlord or Calamity Echo, and upgrading any Echo to max level—Level 25 for a 5-star rarity.

Finally, the achievement panel itself shows progress, so a player can track what remains. Since Version 1.1 content is permanent, returning players in 2026 can still clear this list, though some achievements may depend on daily or weekly rotations.
