In Wuthering Waves, Intimacy isn’t actually an item you collect. It’s a way of measuring the bond between your main character (the Rover) and the other playable characters (Resonators).

The more things you do together, the stronger your bond becomes. Your Wuthering Waves Intimacy level increases as you fight enemies and complete challenges with your companions.

How to get Wuthering Waves Intimacy

Many things you do in the game, like defeating bosses, completing Simulation Training, or cleaning up Tacet Fields, offer Intimacy points as rewards.

When checking rewards for a task, enemy, or activity, keep an eye out for a purple, heart-shaped icon. That means you’ll get Intimacy points for completing it.

Intimacy points only go to the Resonators who are actively fighting alongside you. So, if you want to raise Intimacy with a specific character, make sure they’re in your party when you complete the challenge.

Remember, Rovers don’t gain Intimacy — it’s only for your Resonators.
