Solaris-3 is recovering from a cataclysmic event known as the Lament, which ravaged civilization and unleashed strange creatures. You’ll team up with other characters called Resonators, each with unique combat styles, to fight these creatures, uncover the mysteries of your past, and help humanity rebuild.
What are Resonators in Wuthering Waves?
In Wuthering Waves, Resonators are the heart of your fighting force.
These Wuthering Waves characters possess the special ability to resonate with specific frequencies in the world around them. This connection allows them to manipulate these frequencies, granting them unique powers.
Each Resonator has a visible mark called a Tacet Mark that signifies their ability. Their power is further defined by a Resonance Spectrum Pattern, which reflects their strengths and specialties.
These patterns are influenced by the Resonator’s past experiences and subconscious, making them truly unique fighters.
