Recent leaks suggest that the upcoming Wuthering Waves 2.1 update will introduce three new Sonata Effects, each offering unique bonuses to enhance your gameplay. Let's delve into these rumored WuWa 2.1 sets and explore what they might bring to the table.

What Are Sonata Effects in Wuthering Waves?

In Wuthering Waves, Sonata Effects are set bonuses activated by equipping Echoes of the same Sonata. These effects provide various enhancements, such as increased damage, healing, or energy regeneration, depending on the set equipped. Typically, equipping two or five Echoes from the same set unlocks these bonuses, allowing players to customize their Resonators' abilities to suit their playstyle.

According to recent leaks, three new Sonata Effects are expected to debut in the WuWa 2.1 update:

• Gusts of Welkin

• 2-Piece Bonus: Increases Aero Damage by 10%.
• 5-Piece Bonus: Inflicting enemies with Aero Erosion increases Critical Rate by 20% for 15 seconds. Attacking enemies with six stacks of Aero Erosion grants a 15% Aero Damage Bonus for 15 seconds. This set appears tailored for Aero DPS units, introducing a new mechanic called "Aero Erosion," which likely applies damage over time (DoT) effects. Notably, leaks suggest that the Rover character may acquire the Aero attribute in the upcoming update, making this set potentially ideal for an Aero-enhanced Rover.

• Tidebreaking Courage

• 2-Piece Bonus: Increases Energy Regeneration by 10%.
• 5-Piece Bonus: Boosts the Resonator's Attack by 15%. Achieving 250% Energy Regeneration increases All Attribute Damage by 30% for the Resonator. This set seems designed for sub-DPS units that benefit from enhanced energy regeneration and can deliver substantial damage, such as the character Zhezhi.

• Wrath of the Deep

• 2-Piece Bonus: Strength by 20%.
• 5-Piece Bonus: When a shield is active, increases Damage Reduction by 15% and boosts Attack by 10%. This set appears to cater to support or tank roles, enhancing survivability and providing offensive boosts when shields are in play.
