Where Winds Meet: Best beginner-friendly solo build guide

Infernal Twinblades are the strongest pick for solo players (Image via NetEase Games)

As mentioned, there are a lot of options to choose from, but for this guide, we’ll be making use of the Infernal Twinblades Martial Arts. Not only are they good picks for beginners, but they’re also one of the best damage archetypes in the game.

The easiest way to get it early in the game is to help Qi Sheng in the quest Oddity - Mystery of Five Tones. Upon completion, the NPC will grant you a Martial Arts of your choice. However, if you did choose something else, worry not, as all you need to do is explore the dungeon near the Starfall Spring Lake.

Level up your character and increase your Solo Mode Level to gain a complete set of Gear, including all types of weapons. Use the Twin Blades as your primary damage dealer. For the secondary, Mortal Rope Dart is a great combo for crowd control and applying ‘Bone Corrosion’ on enemies.

Best Inner Way setup

Along with the weapons and Martial Arts, you’ll also need Inner Way to maximize your damage. You can equip four at a time on reaching Level 5 in Solo Mode. Here are the best combinations.

• Seasonal Edge: Using a Dual Weapon skill grants a random buff for a short duration.
• Morale Chant: Increases your attack and healing.
• Echoes of Oblivion: Normal attack using Infernal Twinblades inflicts ‘Sin’ on enemies that ignore part of their Physical defense.
• Fivefold Bleed: Attacking enemies can apply a stack of bleeding. Upon reaching five, consume all stacks to deal Pierce damage to enemies.

Gear in Where Winds Meet is a little different. Along with the weapons, armor, and trinkets, you also upgrade the gear slots. They provide a permanent stat boost that affects all weapon and armor pieces, so any new weapon you get doesn’t feel weak.

Additionally, the gear you equip also comes with different set bonuses. Getting a complete set can be challenging, but if you are looking, the Jadeware set improves Physical Attack and Affinity DMG while using Martial Arts Skills.
