Best Echo Sonata Sets in the Early Game
Sonata Sets provide set bonuses if you equip echoes that have the proper sonata effect. There are a total of 9 sonata sets that provide different buffs on characters.
Towards the late game, you will aim to have a full set of 5 echoes belonging to the same sonata set to maximize the effect of the set. In the early game, however, you can opt to just mix the effect of 2 sonata sets by only equipping 2 pieces from each set. This will give your character a 2-pc bonus from both sets.

Best Sonata Sets for DPS
| Name | Set Effect |
|---|---|
| Lingering Tunes | 2-pc Effect: ATK +10% 5-pc Effect: While on the field, ATK increases by 5% every 1.5s. This effect stacks up to 4 stacks. Outro Skill DMG +60%. |
For most DPS resonators, you would want to use the Lingering Tunes set as this will increase the damage output of your characters. You will most likely move to a more elemental-focused set in the late game though, but Lingering Tunes is fine in the early game.

Best Sonata Sets for Sub-DPS Supports
| Name | Set Effect |
|---|---|
| Moonlit Clouds | 2-pc Effect: Energy Regen +10% 5-pc Effect: After using Outro Skill, increases the ATK of the next Resonator by 22.5% for 15s. |
Sub-DPS resonators in Wuthering Waves can not only deal damage but also have Outro Skills that benefit the next character taking the field. For characters that fit this description, Moonlit Clouds is the usual best-in-slot Sonata set.

Best Sonata Sets for Healers
| Name | Set Effect |
|---|---|
| Rejuvenating Glow | 2-pc Effect: Healing Bonus +10% 5-pc Effect: Increases the ATK of all party members by 15% for 30s upon healing allies. |
For healer support units, equipping two or more echoes that have a Rejuvenating Glow sonata effect will improve the overall healing capabilities of healers. Not only that, when healing the ATK of all party members will increase upon healing so it will also buff them!
