Resonator
Rover
/Multiple/Sword/★★★★★
Introduction
Rover is a 5-star Multiple character in Wuthering Waves. Rover's weapon type is Sword and role is Concerto Efficiency. Faction: The Black Shores.
On our Wuthering Waves tier list Rover is B tier, 44th of the 56 characters ranked, from where 14 current tier lists put Rover.
By game mode, Rover is B in Tower of Adversity and C in Whimpering Wastes.
Is Rover good?
Aero Rover turns any negative status effect into
Aero Erosion through their Resonance Skill, but can't apply the debuff on their own, so they need someone like
Ciaccona or
Phoebe to set it up first. Once that's in place, Rover is the strongest healer available for
Aero Erosion teams, since they're the only unit that raises the max Erosion stack count, and
Cartethyia adds even more healing through a windstring interaction with their Liberation.
We rank them B tier, mostly held back by how few negative status effects exist in the game right now.
Pairs well with:
Ciaccona;
Phoebe;
Cartethyia.
Strengths
- Converts any negative status effect into
Aero Erosion - Raises the maximum Erosion stack count, unmatched by any other healer
- Quick, decent damage that fits quick-swap rotations
Weaknesses
- Can't apply
Aero Erosion without another negative status unit on the team - Negative status effects are still fairly rare across the game's enemy roster

Background
We still have a long journey ahead of us.
Let's press on.
Rover is a multi-attribute Resonator and is the main protagonist of Wuthering Waves.
Awakened with an unknown past by a mysterious entity, Rover is an amnesiac Arbiter from another world who embarks on a journey to uncover the truth to regain their lost memories.
As secrets are unveiled, they establish deeper connections with the Solaris-3 and its nations.
"That must be why I'm here, to put a stop to it."

The Rover of unknown origins.
Awakened for some reason and has since been on a journey, forging ties and building communications.
Rover is a calm, kind figure. Despite being an amnestic, they show no complete dejection over their condition.
If anything, Rover makes it clear that despite their search for their lost past, they also invoke the need to discover what the world has to offer them, including the journey they travel that brims with new novel sounds, stories, and the people they meet.
As such, despite being stoic and expressionless at times, they are approachable and make friends with many of the playable characters who each take a liking to them.
Having no problem whether they are human or not, only their nature.
While quiet, the Rover is willing to aid those in need, no matter the circumstances behind it.
Even when told by Jinhsi that they did not have to join the battle against the Threnodian, Ovathrax, they support regardless and take part during the battle.
Showing courage and bravery, putting the well-being of others despite not knowing them, while humbly working alongside the numerous characters they meet during their time in Jinzhou.
As such, they are quick to become angered whenever one of their companions is caught in danger, such as Yangyang who had been sent away by Scar.
They also place trust in others, even those who seemingly betray it as Yinlin did, can be regained, showcasing their ability in seeing the good people have.
This in turn causes Rover to hold a dislike, at times disdain, towards those who treat human lives as tools.
An example being Dollmaker that Rover showed no sympathy towards due to the criminal's action in disregarding those who he could have helped, but treated them without care.
The same going towards the Tethys System, whom Rover disliked over it's apathetic nature and decisions in both it's willingness to sacrifice individual humans and disregard towards the Shorekeeper as a person.
This trait stems from their past-self, with flashbacks and information from the Shorekeeper revealing that they wished to unite humanity against the Lament and the danger it possessed.
Professing that no unique or even chosen group can stop it, and thus humans must come together as one.
Taking nothing for granted, Rover enjoys what civilization offers, and believes that salvation comes from where nobody needs to be saved, thus why until that day, human lives gone shouldn't be treated in vain.
Putting in their full effort to find a way to stop the Lament no matter how much time passes, or even where they travel to, even if it meant purposely losing their own memories.
However, they can also be rather ruthless at times.
When they discover how Medulius, someone who took joy in bloodshed and desired for Aulus to be killed by his daughter, Verbia, Rover attempted to murder them in disgust.
They were also suspicious and never truly trusted Phrolova, wary and cautious of her the entire time.
While they did hold some level of sympathy towards her when discovering her past, they believed her to be obsessed and when attempting to attain Leviathan's gem, they purposely threw their sword at her, killing her physical form.
At the same time, Phrolova accuses them of discarding bonds with friends and allies, pointing out that they purposely wiped their own memory for a chance in solving the Lament, even if it meant breaking previously made promises, something the Rover doesn't deny.
Although, while Rover is considerably heroic, some of their other traits include a weariness in doing certain requests that may stem from finding it bothersome.
They also ask for compensation for such deeds, a quirk that the Ebony Gatekeeper says was rather normal for them.
Likely from realizing some of their participation in certain activities, such as the Lollo Campaign, may have complications when joining in.
