Wuthering Waves Effects: Complete Breakdown
According to reliable leaker EncoreMoe, Version 3.0 introduces these sets designed around the new Tune mechanics system:
| Sonata Effect | Focus | Best For |
|---|---|---|
| Pact of Neonlight Leap | Damage & Rotation | Main DPS Characters |
| Halo of Starry Radiance | Healing & Support | Support/Healer Roles |
| Rite of Gilded Revelation | Spectro Damage | Spectro Resonators |
Pact of Neonlight Leap: The Swap Master
2-Piece Bonus: Increases attack by a moderate percentage
5-Piece Bonus: When casting Outro Skill, grants 15% ATK bonus to the next Resonator entering with Intro Skill. Additionally, each point of Tune Rupture Shifting or Strain increases ATK by 0.3% (up to 15%, lasting 15 seconds).

This set rewards quick-swap gameplay and rotation mastery. Players who excel at timing character switches will extract maximum value, making it perfect for aggressive teams focused on burst windows.
Halo of Starry Radiance: The Team Enabler
2-Piece Bonus: Enhances healing effectiveness
5-Piece Bonus: Healing a Resonator grants 0.2% All Attribute DMG Bonus to all team members for every 1% of Off-Tune Buildup Rate, reaching up to 25% for four seconds.
This defensive powerhouse transforms healers into damage amplifiers. The set shines in prolonged encounters where sustained healing creates cumulative offensive advantages for your entire squad.
Rite of Gilded Revelation: Spectro Specialist
2-Piece Bonus: Boosts Spectro damage
5-Piece Bonus: Dealing Basic Attack damage increases Spectro DMG by 10% for five seconds (stacks three times). At maximum stacks, casting Resonance Liberation further enhances Basic Attack damage.
Designed specifically for Spectro characters like the upcoming Lynae, this set encourages aggressive Basic Attack chains before unleashing devastating Ultimates.
Strategic Team Building Implications
The new Sonata Effects introduce unprecedented flexibility. DPS-focused players can choose between Pact of Neonlight Leap for rotation-based damage or Rite of Gilded Revelation for sustained Spectro output. Meanwhile, support mains finally have Halo of Starry Radiance to transform healing into offensive utility.
Version 3.0’s Lahai-Roi region will likely feature dedicated farming locations for these sets. Players should prepare Waveplates for extensive Echo grinding once the update drops around December 25, 2025.
Lynae: The Perfect Showcase
As a 5-star Spectro Pistol user, Lynae appears custom-built for these new mechanics. Her kit revolves around Lumiflow management and polychromatic fluid application, triggering Tune Rupture effects that synergize perfectly with both Pact of Neonlight Leap and Rite of Gilded Revelation.
Early beta footage reveals her rainbow-trailing combat style combines aerial mobility with explosive damage—exactly what these new Sonata Effects were designed to enhance.
Official Reveal Coming Soon
Kuro Games will host their Version 3.0 livestream on December 12, 2025, where they’ll officially confirm these Sonata Effects alongside Lynae’s complete kit and the broader Lahai-Roi update details.
Remember that beta content is subject to change before the final release. However, these leaks provide valuable insight for planning your future team compositions and resource allocation strategies.
