    Rover (Havoc) Character Guide

    By Vallun5 June, 2024Updated:10 July, 2024No Comments4 Mins Read Characters

    Wuwa. Havoc Rover Wuthering Waves Guide Character Build. Sub DPS. Havoc DPS. Skill Priority.



    Rover is the main character that wields a Sword, and gaining access to the Havoc element requires completing chapter 6 of the Jinzhou story. They can be played as a Sub DPS or DPS.

    Pros – Cheap to build sequences on.

    Cons – Vulnerable animation locks unless you have the right timings for cancels.

    Team Compositions – Works well with other Havoc damage characters because of the Havoc damage resistance reduction.


    Skills and Playstyle


    Basic Attack – A five chain of attacks that grants more damage on the final two hits and gives Forte.

    Heavy Attack – A decent damaging attack that allows you to use the Basic Attack chain afterwards starting from the more powerful fourth attack.

    Resonance Skill – Deals damage with a double hit and grants a considerable amount of Forte.



    Forte Circuit – When performing a Heavy Attack at full Forte, enter into the Dark Surge state, enhancing your Resonance Skill, Basic, and Heavy Attacks to do more damage. Use the Basic Attacks and Resonance Skill while in this form. You want to get into this state as often as possible as this is where your damage comes from.



    Resonance Liberation (R) – Deals a massive amount of damage in a wide radius in front of you. Also increases the damage that the Dreamless Echo skill will do.
