How to turn on the electricity in Wuthering Waves Rewinding Raindrops
The quest is pretty linear up until you make it to Whining Aix’s Mire. Your first task here is to figure out a way to turn the electricity back on in the facility you’re in. To do this, head upstairs and grab thegreen batteryusing theLevitator Utility. Place the battery into the green slot on the locked entrance with thered battery already placed.
Inside this room, you can chat with the holograms to find more clues. In the middle of the room is anew green batteryto use, so take it and place it in thedoor that requires two green batteriesto open. Now grab the green battery that you used to open the first room and use it to unlock the second room.

Now in this room is another green battery, a hologram chest, and a device that switches the colors of the batteries. First, you’ll want the items in the chest. Grab the battery available to you andplace it down on the red buttonon the floor behind you. This will allow you to unlock the chest. Now take the green battery and place it in the color-changing device tomake it red.

How to defeat the Mech Abomination
Now that the electricity is on, you’re able to head into the basement. Depending on your party’s overall level, this should be an easy fight. Otherwise, Aalto will recommend that youtarget the jointsto weaken them. The game will also give you a tip to use the Levitator Utility tothrow any summoned machinesat it. During my fight this didn’t seem to happen so I just focused on dealing damage.
Although the game grants you Encore as a trial character, you’re still with your main party, and for me, that was Calcharo, female Rover, and Verina. This enemy can hit hard, so make sure to dodge and counterattack it when it tries to slam its arms down on you.

The Mech Abomination also has a move where itsummons a bunch of lightning strikes. you may easily avoid these by dodging and running out of the way. Wait to start hitting it again once the lightning is gone. It’ll also shoot out a radius of lightning damage outward, which you can jump or dodge over.
Hopefully, this Rewinding Raindrops quest guide for Wuthering Waves helped you figure out your way through the puzzles and boss battle! If your team is around level 50 and you’re consistently switching between characters to utilize theirIntro and Outro skills, you should be fine.
