Wuthering Waves' elemental system has evolved significantly with Version 2.0. While initially providing passive buffs and resistances, elements now feature direct interactions via Elemental Effects. This guide details these effects and their impact on gameplay.
Elemental Status Effects and Debuffs:
All six elements possess unique status effects applied through specific attacks. Dodging removes these stacks.
| Elemental Effect | Effect Description |
|---|---|
| Havoc Bane | Stacks up to 2; at 2 stacks, deals Havoc DMG and reapplies to nearby characters. Stacks increase periodically. |
| Glacio Chafe | Reduces movement speed; intensity increases with stacks; at 10 stacks, freezes the resonator (players can "struggle" to speed thawing). |
| Spectro Frazzle | Stacks decrease periodically, dealing Spectro DMG; more stacks = more DMG over time. |
| Fusion Burst | Stacks up to 10; at 10 stacks, explodes, dealing significant Fusion DMG. |
| Aero Erosion | Deals Aero DMG periodically; stacks don't decrease to deal DMG; more stacks = more DMG over time. |
| Electro Flare | Reduces ATK based on stacks (1-4: -5%; 5-9: -7% + Magnetized effect; 10: -10%). |
Resonators, Echoes, and Echo Sets:
Currently, the utilization of Elemental Effects is limited, primarily benefiting Spectro Rover.
