Mode & Difficulty

Choose between Solo mode and Co-op mode.

Prefer solo exploration and puzzle-solving? Go Lone Wanderer! Want to tackle dungeons with friends? Shared Journey is for you!

 

Difficulty

The game offers Story, Recommended, and Expert difficulties. 

For difficulty, the best one to go for is Recommended mode, where you get to experience the challenges of the game. You can also choose Story if you simply want to enjoy the main story and exploration.

 

Tips: 

After the prologue, you'll meet your first boss fight. You can skip it if it's too tough. You'll still get progression rewards, but will miss a unique title.

Essential Starting Steps

Character Creation: It’s recommended to choose the Exploration Skills “Body of Iron”, which grants immunity to fall damage once every 10 minutes — an excellent survival skill in the early game!

For Exploration Attributes, it’s advisable to invest in “Melody”, which is highly useful for traversal and puzzle-solving.

Main Quest Priority: Focus on the main quest. It unlocks new content like main systems and maps, and also provides rewards for leveling up.

Unlock Fast Travel Point: Activate Fast Travel Boundary Stones you find on the map and make exploration much easier.

Early Game Power Progression

1. Martial Arts & Inner Ways

Weapons & Martial Arts: You can choose from 7 kinds of weapons - Sword, Spear, Dual Blades, Mo Blades, Fan, Umbrella, and Rope Dart.

For your starting martial arts, highly recommend the Panacea Fan. Its healing is invaluable for surviving early fights.

 

Skill Theft System: Upon reaching Kaifeng via the main quest, visit the sect headquarters to acquire new martial arts. Try more to find your right one!

A powerful and popular combination is Mo Blades paired with the "Stormbreaker Spear". Both provide inherent damage reduction, allowing you to ignore their stagger state and trade blows directly with enemies - you can freely spam Charged Attacks for an incredibly satisfying combat flow!

 

Must-Have Inner Way: A top priority is Morale Chant. Purchase it from the merchant Tang Bao in Weiyang City for 5000 Echo Jade.

It provides a high chance to stack damage or healing buffs, benefiting both DPS and support builds.

2. Gear System

Don't grind for perfect gear before Level 50. Equipment changes quickly. Just use the best you find. Prioritize offensive stats like Attribute Attack, Attack Bonus.

Arsenal: Don't discard old gear! Place it in the "Arsenal" to increase your minimum and maximum physical damage as well as your maximum health points.

 

Resource Management

1. Mental Energy

Energy recovers at 1 point per 9 minutes. Spend it on:

World Bosses: Boss dungeons, best for equipment.

Outposts: Enemy camps, best for "Ebon Iron" used to upgrade Marvels.

 

Energy Usage:

Pre-Level 60: Use it to level up. Run Outposts to avoid capping.

At Level 60: Focus all Energy on the Level 56 dungeon (unlocks World Tier 7).

Post-Level 60: You can consume triple Energy for triple rewards.

 

Tips: If a dungeon is too hard, use Multiplayer mode for help!

 

2. Store Recommendations

Store: Clear it weekly. Use "Jade Fish" from exploration to buy key resources like Oscillating Jade and random Inner Ways chests. This significantly reduces the grind.

General Merchants: Short on crafting materials? Buy them from general merchants in towns to save time and effort.

 

Daily To-Do list

Time	Category	Activity	Main Rewards	Notes

Pro Tips

Request Healing: How to heal illness and sprains in Where Winds Meet? Ask other players for help on Online Mode, players with the Doctoer Career will accept you request and come cure you.

Energy Tip: Avoid spamming dungeons before Level 30-40. Early gear gets replaced too fast.
