What is the Voucher of Reciprocal Tides in Wuthering Waves?
The Voucher of Reciprocal Tides is an in-game currency that lets you choose a 5-Star character on the Beginner's Choice Banner. It was gift from the developer Kuro Games to all players as part of an apology for the rocky international launch of the game.
As a basis for comparison Honkai Star Rail, another popular gacha game, gives out a 5-Star of your choice, but only after 300 Pulls of a specific banner.

Which free 5-Star to pick in Beginner's Choice Convene?
The 5-Star characters you can pick from are:
- Verina: 5-Star Spectro support character who wields a Rectifier. Can heal allies, protect allies from fatal damage with her shield and buff ATK damage of all party members.
- Encore: 5-Star Fusion character who wields a Rectifier. Encore's DPS kit revolves around her ultimate and activating it as much as possible for burst damage.
- Calcharo: 5-star Electro character who wields a Broadblade. Calcharo requires good execution to be deadly. If you're a sweaty gacha gamer, Calcharo is the choice.
- Jianxin: 5-Star Aero character who wields Gauntlets. Great at dealing with swarms of enemies and good DPS dealer. Can also shield and buff allies, plus counter-attack if you parry at the right time!
- Lingyang: 5-Star Glacio character who wields Gauntlets. A Main DPS character who is easily the weakest 5-star at launch. Oh and he knows martial arts.
Still stuck. Here's the answer: if you love your support characters pick Verina, if you like min-maxing and love tweaking builds for DPS then pick Calcharo. If you're playing Wuthering Waves for the waifus, then Jianxin is the choice. If you like Genshin Impact then pick Encore as she gives Klee vibes, and Klee is awesome.
