What are Waveplates in Wuthering Waves?
As mentioned, Waveplates are an energy-like consumable in Wuthering Waves that can be spent on rewards. With a daily max limit of 240 Waveplates, the game regenerates 1 Waveplate every 6 minutes.
While it takes 24 hours to regenerate your full Waveplates capacity, there are other ways to restore Waveplates that don’t require just waiting around. We’ll jump into more on that below.

How to regenerate Waveplates
We mentioned earlier that outside of just waiting for time to pass to regenerate Waveplates, there are also other things you can do within Wuthering Waves to get them.
Firstly, you can consume Crystal Solvents. To do this, either consume it directly from your backpack, or interact with the plus sign next to your Waveplate count. This will instantly restore 60 Waveplates (enough to take on a Tacet Field). To gain Crystal Solvents, you’ll need to redeem gift codes or complete the Pioneer Podcast missions.
You can also spend Astrites, using 60 Astrites to gain 60 Waveplates. But, we’d recommend saving both your Crystal Solvents and especially your Astrites for higher levels and other things. For Astrites, being a rare and extremely valuable item, you’re better off using them to buy Tides to get banner pulls.
So, when it comes to regenerating your Waveplates, you’ll really just want to focus on waiting, logging in at least once a day, and spending your Waveplates wisely.
