With Wuthering Waves Version Update Patch 2.2 coming soon during April of 2025, players can expect many great things from the version update patch, including the introduction and banner of a brand new character - Cantarella. With the help of leaked details trusted sources, let us see everything you can experience during Wuthering Waves’ version update 2.2:
Brand New Character Release - Cantarella
The main attraction of Wuthering Waves upcoming version update 2.2, Cantarella is the brand new shiny 5* Limited Resonator that players will have the chance to meet and recruit during the new update patch.
Cantarella is a 5* Limited Resonator of the Havoc Element. She wields a Rectifier as her main weapon to allow her to deal powerful Havoc damage to enemies surrounding her. Her overall design resembles that of a jellyfish, with her abilities allowing her to move on the ground and in midair as if she is swimming in the ocean.
Cantarella’s skill kit allows her to supplement the overall damage output of the team with her summons and helps sustain the team with her various abilities to heal allies and deal Havoc damage. For her Forte Gauge, Cantarella can accumulate charges whenever she attacks the enemy - up to 3 stacks - and whenever she uses her plunging attacks, she will consume a stack in order to deal massive amounts of Havoc damage to the enemies and heal teammates.
Upon using her skill, Cantarella will attack the enemies,dealing havoc damage to them and inflict them with Hazy dream, reducing their movement speed and deal additional Havoc Damage after a set period. When her Forte Gauge is filled, her skill is enhanced, dealing even more Havoc damage and healing all allies when her attacks hit the enemies.
Upon using Resonance Liberation, Cantarella will summon up to 3 Jelly Dreamweaver on the field to aid herself and any allies on the field to deal Havoc damage to the enemies using their coordinated attacks.
Cantarella’s main gimmick revolves around the fact that all of her enhanced attacks are considered Echo skills, allowing her to trigger her talent to grant herself and allies who uses Echo Skill extra energies, turning her into a very powerful sub DPS/ Support Havoc Resonator that help enables a lot of fast switch team compositions.
Cantarella’s Signature Weapon
Together with the release of Cantarella, her signature weapon will also be released alongside her banner:
Whisper of the Sea
Main Stat: Attack (413)
Sub Stat: Crit Damage (72%)
Effect: ATK increased by 12%. Within 10 seconds after casting the Intro skill, when casting the Echo skill, you will gain 1 layer of [Soft Dream]. The same Echo can only be triggered once, and can be stacked up to 3 layers. It lasts for 10 seconds. If you switch to another character, the effect ends early.
- Layer 1: Normal attack DMG increased by 40%;
- Layer 2: Ignore the target's 10% Havoc resistance;
- Layer 3: When [Soft Dream] ends early, your own normal attack damage bonus increases by 40%, ignoring the target's 10% Havoc resistance, lasting 27 seconds. If you switch to yourself, the effect ends early.
Banners Release Order
With the introduction of Cantarella as a brand new Limited 5* Havor Resonator for players to grab during Wuthering Waves version update 2.2, several old Limited Resonators will also be making their return with their special Rerun banners, allowing players to roll for them if they have missed them previously.
The banner details for Wuthering Waves version 2.2 according to the leaked information are as followed:
- Phase 1: Cantarella (Limited 5*) + Danjin (4*) + Yuanwu (4*) + Sanhua (4*)
- Phase 2: Camellya (Limited 5*) + Scorekeeper (Limited 5*) + Baizhi (4*) + Chixia (4*) + Aalto (4*)
New Rover Element
Together with the release of Cantarella as the brand new limited 5* Resonator for version update 2.2, players will also be rewarded with a special brand new element for the main character - Rover when they advance far enough into the new main story quest coming to the version update. With this release, Rover will be able to unlock a brand new element aside from Havoc and Spectro - Aero.
Aero Rover is a special Resonator that still uses a shortsword as their main weapon. When switching to the Aero Element, Rover will forgo the crown control ability of Spectro and the powerful damage output of Havoc for a more balanced skill kit that allow them to both deal decent amounts of damage while also being able to support the team by healing them.
Aero Rover’s main gimmick revolves around aerial attacks, with their skills and attack patterns creating opportune moments for them to fly up and attack the enemies in midair. Their Forte gauge also supports this playstyle as when Aero Rover attacks enemies when they are airborne, they will deal additional attacks and heal the party while attacking.
When using Resonance Liberation, Aero Rover will be able to deal a massive hit of Aero damage in a decently large area to enemies and heal other allies, making them a very good support character to bring as a sub DPS/ Support for many team comps.
