Everyone is excited over the very mysterious new character who is entering Wuthering Waves, Phrolova, right before the Version 2.5 update go live. Pending release on July 24, 2025, this 5-star Havoc Resonator will bring a combat style dripping with eerie graceful beauty, fresh narrative presence, and a kit designed for crowd control and explosive DPS.
Here is a little break-up of what to expect from the advent of this Fractsidus maiden.
Phrolova's Debut: The Havoc Force
Phrolova will open the Phase 1 banner of Version 2.5 and her debut will be accompanied by her signature Rectifier weapon, the Lethean Elegy. She is the only new 5-star unit that would land on this patch, thereby reinforcing her spotlight. With narrative relevance and meta potential on her side, Phrolova will be the resonator definitely worth pulling for powerful Havoc DPS with versatile good range capabilities.
Phase 1 Banner Lineup: Who's Joining the Stage?
Though Phrolova takes center-stage, the Phase 1 Banner will feature reruns of familiar faces, making it a draw for the veterans and newcomers alike. Here's the lineup in full:
Phrolova (5★, Havoc, Rectifier)
Roccia (5★, Havoc, Gauntlet)
Taoqi (4★, Havoc, Broadblade)
Lumi (4★, Electro, Broadblade)
Yuanwu (4★, Electro, Gauntlet)
Weapons available will include Lethean Elegy for Phrolova and Tragicomedy for Roccia, ensuring players can fully build their optimization.
Combat mechanics: Life, Death, and Sound
Gameplay with Phrolova centers around musical motifs and transforming states. It somehow gives a rhythm-based style of combat.

Her Normal Attacks are a set of three Havoc-based strikes; the third-stage transition into the Reincarnate state opens more powerful abilities.
Her Heavy Attack can become Scarlet Coda: an explosive AoE skill, contingent on certain conditions, Compose state active and Volatile Notes fully charged.
Scarlet Coda staggers enemies and pulls them in on top of that, serving as excellent crowd control.
Another core feature is her Resonance Skill, Whispers in a Fleeting Dream, which deals Havoc damage and kicks her straight into Reincarnate mode, allowing for smooth skill chaining and some creative combo windows.
Her kit lends her to making suitable choices for both solo and coordinated team engagements.

Strategic Importance and Pull Recommendation
Strategically, from a meta standpoint, Phrolova's Havoc typing gives her an edge in battles where elemental resist rotation comes into play. Everywhere else, she should leave a solid imprint due to her general area control and specialized mechanics: therefore, in both normal and late-game content alike.
Whether you're a lore enthusiast curious about the implications behind her Fractsidus connection or a min-maxer aiming for the perfect build, Phrolova's first appearance stands as both a story beat and a tactical opportunity.
Phrolova's banner will open on July 24, 2025, at 11 AM (UTC+8) to all servers globally, with regional release times staggered accordingly. With her arrival comes the first wave of Version 2.5, with rerun banners expected to follow in Phase 2.
If you plan to pull for her, do remember that wrecking synergy with her signature weapon is her best jackpot because in Wuthering Waves, synergy is everything.

‘Salman Khan was holding my throat with a real knife,' recalls Ashok Saraf as he opens up on a terrifying incident on the sets of ‘Jaagruti', says, 'Aise aadmi kisi ko yaad nahi rehte'

Veteran actor Ashok Saraf, fondly remembered for his impeccable comic timing and for the iconic television show 'Hum Paanch' amidst many movies has also done a negative role in his career, This was for the 1992 Salman Khan starrer Jaagruti. But what was meant to be just another scene turned into a terrifying real-life incident, one that Saraf says he will never forget. 'Jaagruti' starred Karisma Kapoor opposite Salman. In a chat with Radio Nasha Official, Saraf opened up about a near-fatal moment while shooting a tense scene. The actor revealed that while filming, a real knife was used, and things went awry when Salman Khan gripped his throat a bit too hard. 'He was holding my throat with a knife and it was a real knife. Uski jo nok hoti hai vo kaat ke gayi aise… As soon as we started saying the dialogues, I tried to escape from his hands. Salman zor se daba rahe the and then I said, 'Dheere se dabaao, katt raha hai yahan par,'' Saraf recalled. Despite the warning, the shoot continued. Saraf tried to suggest a safer way to hold the knife, but the camera angle didn't permit a change. 'He then asked me what he should do, maine bola ulta pakdo na. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like Villas Prices In Dubai Might Be More Affordable Than You Think Villas In Dubai | Search Ads Get Quote Undo He said that the camera is facing towards us, dikh jaayega usme, then maine socha chhorro.'

Despite the scare, he continued working with Salman in several hits like 'Karan Arjun', 'Pyaar Kiya To Darna Kya', and 'Bandhan.'

'Rocky Aur Rani Kii Prem Kahaani' turns 2: Karan Johar on Dharmendra and Shabana Azmi's kiss in the film: Might make a love story on them— Exclusive!

Two years have passed since Karan Johar 's vibrant and heartfelt directorial comeback 'Rocky Aur Rani Kii Prem Kahaani' hit the screens, yet for the filmmaker, it still feels like it happened just yesterday. In an exclusive conversation with ETimes, Karan opened up about what the film means to him, the towering talent he collaborated with, and what lies ahead. 'This is one film I am very proud of' 'It seems like just yesterday! I must say this is one film I am very proud of,' says Karan, reflecting on the milestone anniversary of 'Rocky Aur Rani Kii Prem Kahaani', which completes two years on July 28. On par with 'My Name Is Khan' and 'Kuch Kuch Hota Hai' When asked if the film ranks alongside his other celebrated works, Karan responds with unmistakable pride. 'It is right up there with 'My Name Is Khan' and of course my first directorial 'Kuch Kuch Hota Hai', which remains special as it brought a smile to my father (the eminent producer Yash Johar)'s face. Our production house was suffering huge deficits when I made 'Kuch Kuch Hota Hai'. It brought a huge financial respite to my dad.' Dharmendra reacts to his kissing scene with Shabana Azmi in 'Rocky Aur Rani Kii Prem Kahaani' Gratitude for the ensemble cast Karan, known for his keen eye for both drama and grandeur, holds 'Rocky Aur Rani…' close to his heart — not just for its sweeping romance and colourful storytelling, but for the actors he got to work with. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like Cimanggis: Unsold Sofas Prices May Surprise You (Prices May Surprise You) Sofas | Search Ads Search Now Undo 'I look back with immense gratitude at the experience of getting to work with those tremendous actors. Ranveer and Alia, of course. But more importantly, I got to work with the great Shabana Azmiji and Dharamji and that phenomenal actor from Bengal, Tota Roy Choudhary, for the first time. That is a career high for me. As for Jayaji (Bachchan), I have had the rare privilege of working with her on several occasions. She agreed to play a character with grey shades in 'Rocky Aur Rani…' And she pulled it off swimmingly.' 'That kiss deserves its own film' The film, known as much for its bold emotional choices as its flamboyant tone, also made headlines for the surprising and tender kiss between Dharmendra and Shabana Azmi — a moment that sparked wide conversation. Karan laughs, acknowledging the unexpected buzz: 'There is a separate love story there. I may one day make a film on their love story in 'Rocky Aur Rani Kii Prem Kahaani'.'
