Wuthering Waves' New 5-Star Character: Cartethyia
Get ready, Wuthering Waves players! A highly anticipated new character is joining the roster in the upcoming version 2.4 update: the formidable Cartethyia, also known as Fleurdelys. This 5-star unit has been officially revealed by Kuro Games through a captivating drip marketing campaign.
A Mysterious Maiden
The official announcement paints a picture of a character caught between conflicting forces. Described as possessing the powers of both the Sentinel and Threnodian, Cartethyia faces an uncertain future, ready to confront whatever challenges lie ahead. Her splash art showcases her adult form (Fleurdelys), hinting at the possibility of multiple forms within gameplay. Whether this transformation is tied to specific mechanics like Resonance Liberation or Skill activation remains to be seen.
Speculations and Anticipation
While details on Cartethyia's specific Attribute and weapon type are still under wraps, leaks suggest she might be an Aero unit wielding a Sword. Given her significant connections within the game's lore – the Sentinel Imperator, the Threnodian Leviathan, and the Dark Tide – it's safe to expect her to be a powerful addition to any team, potentially rivaling the strength of established characters like Jinhsi.
Release Timing
As the first character revealed for the 2.4 update, Cartethyia's banner is expected to launch during the initial phase, tentatively around June 12th. Players are encouraged to keep a close eye on official announcements for confirmation.
