As a DPS that deals on-field and off-field Havoc DMG, Phrolova needs a weapon that boost her DPS in Wuthering Waves. Unfortunately, as a Rectifier user, it’s not easy to find an F2P option that can take that role. So, for players that want to pull for Phrolova, she also needs some investment in her weapon. Here are the best weapons for Phrolova in WuWa.
The Lifer is a unique Chop Chop enemy that can be found in the Fagaceae Peninsula in the Wuthering Waves.
Since Phrolova is not F2P-friendly when it comes to her best weapons in WuWa, it’s better to go for the ones that add more utility for her kit. For that, below Augment, it’s better to go for a weapon like Variation. It doesn’t offer any DPS increase for Phrolova, but it increases the speed of her rotations, allowing her quick swap teams to perform slightly better when she doesn’t have a premium weapon.

Augment
Base Stat
412 Base ATK
Sub-stat
20.2% Crit Rate
R5 Effect
When Resonance Liberation is released, increases the caster’s ATK by 48%, lasting for 15s.
Augment is one of the best weapons for Phrolova in WuWa, even if it’s a 4-star Rectifier. It’s understandable since Augment is a Battle Pass weapon. What makes Augment a good weapon for Phrolova is its Crit Rate Sub-stat accompanied by a passive effect that increases her ATK by 48%. It’s very useful for her kit, no matter if she’s operating as a hybrid or main DPS in Wuthering Waves.

Whispers of Sirens
Base Stat
500 Base ATK
Sub-stat
72% Crit DMG
Effect
Increases ATK by 12%. Casting Echo Skill within 10s after casting Intro Skill or Basic Attacks grants 1 stacks of Gentle Dream. Echoes with the same name can only trigger this effect once, stacking up to 2 times, lasting for 10s. When reaching 2 stacks, casting Echo Skill no longer resets the duration of this effect. This effect activates up to once per 10s. Switching to another Resonator ends this effect early. With 1 stack: Grants 40% Basic Attack DMG Bonus. With 2 stack: Ignores 12% of the target’s Havoc RES.
It’s easy for Phrolova to trigger Whispers of Sirens’ effect, as most of her attacks deal Echo Skill DMG. This is important because Phrolova can’t use the first stack that grants her extra Basic ATK DMG. However, when getting the second stack, Phrolova can ignore enemies’ Havoc resistance, which notably increases her DPS. Speaking of increasing her DPS, having 72% Crit DMG on Whispers of Sirens’ Sub-stats is definitely going to boost Phrolova’s DPS.

Stringmaster
Base Stat
500 Base ATK
Sub-stat
36% Crit Rate
Effect
Increases the DMG Bonus of all Resonance Attributes by 12%. When Resonance Skill hits a target, increases ATK by 12%, stacking up to 2. This effect lasts for 5s. When the equipped character is not on the field, increases their ATK by an additional 12%.
Building Cartethyia on Crit and HP is essential to get the most out of her kit in Wuthering Waves.
Stringmaster does a really good job keeping Phrolova operating at the highest level. The secret to Stringmaster’s success with many Rectifier DPS units is its buffing approach that only buffs standard stats like Crit Rate, ATK%, and DMG in general. It’s a really good weapon for Phrolova, but unfortunately, it still doesn’t come close to how exclusive and necessary her Signature weapon is.

Lethean Elegy
Base Stat
588 Base ATK
Sub-stat
24.3% Crit Rate
Effect
ATK is increased by 12%. Within 12s after dealing Echo Skill DMG, gain 32% Resonance Skill DMG Bonus and 32% Echo Skill DMG Amplification, and ignore 8% of the target’s DEF when dealing damage.
Since Phrolova’s DPS is split between her Resonance Skill and Echo Skill DMG, Lethean Elegy doesn’t waste time and immediately gives her 32% DMG for both. It’s a weapon made for her and works perfectly with her gameplay to the point it boosts every aspect of her mechanics. There’s no doubt, Lethean Elegy is a necessary weapon for Phrolova to compete with top-tier characters in WuWa.
Other than buffing Phrolova’s Skill DMG, Lethean Elegy also greatly increases her Base ATK and Crit Rate from its Base and Sub-stats. The 5-star Recitifier also increases Phrolova’s ATK% and allows her to ignore 8% of enemies’ DEF when attacking them. The insane amount of buffs Lethean Elegy grants Phrolova makes it her best weapon in Wuthering Waves.
