The top-rated weapons in Wuthering Waves are the five-star weapons, which are both powerful and scarce. These exclusive weapons can only be obtained through gacha banners and special events. However, players will be happy to know that Wuthering Waves is currently offering a complimentary five-star weapon of their choosing. Here’s a guide on how to claim your free five-star weapon in Wuthering Waves.
How to Get a Free 5-Star Weapon in Wuthering Waves
By reaching Union Level 45 in Wuthering Waves, you have the chance to obtain a free five-star weapon. This can be done by obtaining the five-star Weapon Supply Chest, which allows you to choose one of the five weapons from the Winter Brume series: Lustrous Razor, Emerald of Genesis, Static Mist, Abyss Surges, and Cosmic Ripples. It is worth noting that reaching Union Level 45 also unlocks other rewards in this event, including 1,600 Astrite, 40 Lustrous Tides, and 6 Crystal Solvent.
To acquire the five-star weapon, players can take part in the Awakening Journey event of Wuthering Waves. Participation is as simple as playing the game, and the more you play, the higher your Union Level will rise, earning you rewards along the way.
Which 5-Star Weapon Should You Choose?
Each 5-Star Weapon Supply Chest contains a weapon that represents one of the five weapon types in Wuthering Waves. Each weapon also features a distinct secondary stat and effect.
Weapon Type | Name | Secondary Stat |
---|---|---|
Sword | Emerald of Genesis | Critical Rate |
Broadblade | Lustrous Razor | Attack |
Pistols | Static Mist | Critical Rate |
Gauntlets | Abyss Surgers | Attack |
Rectifier | Cosmic Ripples | Attack |
Although all five weapons are suitable for use, there are two that offer a noteworthy advantage – Critical Rate. This stat increases the likelihood of causing Critical Damage, and since it is not commonly found on weapons, it should be prioritized whenever possible.
It is highly suggested to select either the Static Mist (Pistols) or the Emerald of Genesis (Sword). Both options offer a boost in Critical Rate; however, the pool of characters able to use swords is significantly greater than those who can use pistols. This may change in the future with the introduction of new characters, but currently, the Emerald of Genesis is the more dependable choice.
This is the process for obtaining a complimentary five-star weapon in Wuthering Waves. When you receive the reward, be sure to carefully consider your options because once you make a selection, you cannot exchange it for a different weapon. Have a great time, Rovers!
