Does PingAim work with Wuthering Waves?

Yes. PingAim uses a WFP kernel driver that routes Client-Win64-Shipping.exe traffic through your fastest network path. It operates at the Windows network stack level — not inside the game process — so it does not conflict with ACE anti-cheat, which monitors game memory and blocks DLL injection into the game executable.

Does ping matter in Wuthering Waves?

It depends on what you're doing. In solo open-world play, most combat is client-side, so ping has minimal impact on how the game feels — you can dodge and attack normally at 150ms. In co-op mode, ping directly causes rubber-banding, desynced skills, and disconnects above 100ms. The game also requires a constant online connection for solo play, so connection instability causes freezes even when playing alone.

Why does Wuthering Waves lag even in solo mode?

Wuthering Waves requires a constant online connection for all modes — it authenticates and syncs progression to Kuro Games' servers continuously. Even in solo play, connection instability (high jitter, packet loss) causes freezes or disconnections. This is not about ping being high, but about connection quality being unstable.

Is Wuthering Waves' anti-cheat safe?

Anti-Cheat Expert (ACE) by Tencent is a kernel-level driver that runs while the game is active. It is not removed when you uninstall the game — you must delete ACE-*.sys from C:\Windows\System32\drivers manually. ACE has caused BSOD reports and performance degradation on some systems. It does not activate at Windows startup, only when the game launches.

Can I get banned for using a network optimizer in Wuthering Waves?

No bans have been reported for using network optimizers. Kuro Games' Fair Play Policy targets gameplay-altering cheats, not routing tools. ExitLag, WTFast, and LagoFast all officially support Wuthering Waves. However, tools that inject into the game process or install conflicting drivers may trigger ACE errors — PingAim's WFP driver method avoids this.

What is the best server for Wuthering Waves?

Choose the server geographically closest to you: SEA for Southeast Asia, Asia for Japan and Korea, America for the Americas, Europe for EU/Middle East/Africa, HMT for Hong Kong/Taiwan. Server choice is permanent — you cannot transfer your account to another server. If you chose wrong, you must start a new account.

PingAim detects Wuthering Waves automatically

No manual config. PingAim identifies Wuthering Waves by process name and routes it through your fastest connection using a kernel-level WFP driver.
