Players can switch the main character’s playable element, unlocking a new set of skills and build options in Wuthering Waves.
Rover’s next element, which may be Aero, will likely be unlocked through story progression, impacting the game’s meta.

A new Wuthering Waves leak reveals that players will get a free 5-Star weapon in Version 2.2. Wuthering Waves‘ next update is expected to release a new character, a new main story chapter, and Rover’s third playable element.

Similar to Genshin Impact and Honkai: Star Rail, in Wuthering Waves players can switch the main character’s playable element, which causes the MC to acquire a whole new set of skills and build. Wuthering Waves‘ Rover currently has two elements, Spectro and Havoc, with the latter being unlockable by completing the game’s Jinzhou arc and leveling up. With the release of Rinascita, fans have been hoping for Rover to gain their third element sooner rather than later. Now, a new leak reveals that Wuthering Waves will give players a head start for Rover’s next build.

Wuthering Waves Leak Reveals Interesting Detail About Zani

A new Wuthering Waves leak reveals an interesting detail about the highly-awaited Zani, who is expected to become playable during the 2.0 cycle.

A recent leak from WuWa Land has revealed a free 5-Star sword for players in Wuthering Waves Version 2.2. The leak includes a render of the weapon, revealing its detailed design. Per the leak, the new sword has a base attack of 588 at level 90 and provides 38.9% of energy regeneration. The weapon also provides a 26% damage increase to any wearer’s Resonance skill when being healed. However, the sword can also debuff enemies, as long as it is equipped for Aero Rover. The leak would confirm that Wuthering Waves will release Aero Rover in Version 2.2, and previous leaks have suggested that their kit involves party-wide healing.

Wuthering Waves Version 2.2 Leak Reveals Free 5-Star Weapon for Aero Rover

Weapon type: Sword
ATK: 588
Energy Regeneration: 38.9%
When receiving healing, the wearer’s Resonance skill damage is increased by 26% for 15 seconds. When Rover (Aero) attacks an enemy with his Resonance Skill, the enemy’s Aero resistances are reduced by 20.8% for 30 seconds.

While the leak reveals the weapon is free, it does not confirm its unlock method. Rover will likely obtain the Aero attribute by progressing through the story, but players will have to wait for an official announcement from Kuro Games about the new sword’s availability. On the other hand, there are only four Aero Resonators in Wuthering Waves, so Rover’s addition to the list could be exciting news for the current meta.

Rover’s next element was briefly teased in Wuthering Waves‘ latest story trailer, as well as other characters like the mysterious Cartethyia and the highly-anticipated Zani. Wuthering Waves recently revealed Cantarella for Version 2.2, suggesting that she will be the only new playable unit in the patch.
