Where Winds Meet is an epic martial arts open-world action RPG set in 10th century China. The game was officially released on November 15, 2025, with the exhilarating feeling of freely running around a vast map and defeating enemies with brilliant action. Beginners tend to get lost in the open world's high degree of freedom, but this guide carefully selects the top priorities in the early stages and explains step-by-step the fastest way to become stronger. From how to progress through the main story to streamlining daily routines, instantly unlocking movement skills, and recommending purchases, we will reveal a complete strategy route that eliminates any waste. If you practice this, you can comfortably unlock mid-game content within a week and gain top-class combat power even without paying.

• Top priority: unlock levels and content all at once through main story progression
• Immediately learn the movement skills “Light Body Technique” and “Wall Running” in the early stages, improving search efficiency by more than 10 times.
• Make the “guardian” and “base” of mental strength (stamina) digestion the pillars of your daily routine.
• The recommended weapon is the “double sword” to establish a fighting style that emphasizes the number of moves.
• Tips for avoiding failure patterns, detailed reward tables, and step-by-step instructions have been added to each section.

Now, let's aim for the top of Jianghu!

1. Prioritize the main story: This is the golden rule for early stage development.

The most efficient way to strengthen your character in the early stages of Fuenden is to progress through the main story. Your character level will rise rapidly after each chapter of the story, and important systems such as talent, spiritual skills, livelihood, and trial swords will be released one after another. If you spend time exploring or subquesting, your level will stagnate and you will have a hard time later on.

Specific steps to proceed

1. After completing the tutorial, you will be able to create your character immediately. Your avatar is important for interacting with other players, so please adjust your appearance without regrets. Gender and facial features are up to you, but we recommend keeping your hairstyle and clothing simple to ensure visibility.
2. Aim to clear Chapter 1 “Remaining Chapter: Weak Water Shore”. Here, guardianship (boss lap) and horse acquisition will be released. Go straight forward relying on the quest marker, and defeat the enemies along the way by giving priority to parrying.
3. Proceed with the horse acquisition quest “Recover the stolen horse.” Defeat the horse bandit brothers in front of the General's Shrine. Horses can run automatically, dramatically increasing their movement speed.
4. We will strengthen your recovery at the Katsujin Medical Center. Please give the medicinal information to the NPC “Choyakuon” at the clinic at the upper part of Mt. Ingetsu in Kiyokawa. Maximize the number of wound medicines you have and greatly improve your battle durability. The sources of medicinal materials are the warrior's footprint reward, guardian drop, clearing the base, and exploring the Celestial Cave.

Released content list table

Story progression	release content	main benefits
After the tutorial	forest of friendship	Friend multiplayer, you can get up to 2000 weekly Shikai notes
Chapter 1: Sens do not cross	talent system	Magic slots will be increased and weapon special skills will be released.
Remaining Chapter: Shore of Weak Water	Occupation, Shinpō, Test Sword, Guardianship	Enables NPC interaction enhancement, buffs, and equipment acquisition.
Kiyokawa map released	base battle	Daily equipment rotation becomes possible
Player rank 10	Multi-style, bond of fate	You can get enhanced cooperative play.

To avoid failure patterns, don't get distracted by treasure chests on the way and prioritize markers. If you are stuck due to the level difference, please turn on parrying assistance (limited to easy/normal difficulty, consumes insight points). This will reduce the time required by 30 minutes.

As the story progresses, enlightenment values ​​are accumulated, which is directly connected to strengthening talents. Please solidify your foundation for new power (breaking through the upper limit) here.

2. Mechanism of leveling up and breaking the upper limit: Understand new powers and achieve permanent enhancement

The core of Fuenden's level system is the single-player level (character level), and the fastest way to progress is through the story. Leveling up will increase your mental strength limit and improve your lap efficiency. Furthermore, new powers (breaking through the upper limit) will permanently make you stronger, giving you an advantage even when you are left alone.

Optimal route to level up

• Main source: Main story + remaining chapter/chivalry improvisation (sub quest)
• Sub sources: exploration (exploration), treasure chests on the way, guardianship laps
• Break through the upper limit (new power): Collect martial arts breakthrough items in the shrine and release the level cap. The early goal is to reach level 20 and unlock the mid-game content.

experience value efficiency table

content	Experience points per time	consumerism	Lap limit
main story	High (with bonus)	none	Depends on progress
Guardianship	Medium	1	unlimited
base	Medium	1	Once a day
footprints of chivalry	low	none	multiple

As a tip, after unlocking multiplayer at level 10, please do a patrol lap with a friend. You can kill two birds with one stone by getting Torikinetsu (magical material) at the same time.

3. Immediate release of movement skills “Light Body Technique” and “Wall Running”: Boosts search efficiency

The best part of the open world is light body techniques and wall running. If you don't unlock these early on, you'll waste several hours collecting treasure chests and increasing your exploration level. Please make Kiyokawa Exploration Level 4 your top priority goal.

Light weight release procedure

1. We will explore the Kiyokawa area. Turn the treasure chest/gimmick and achieve exploration level 4.
2. You can obtain the Twilight Ball. You will receive it automatically as a reward.
3. Please learn from the training menu → description → movement tab.
4. To operate, press and hold space to soar into the sky, and use multiple jumps to fly at high speed. Easier access to cliffs and high places.

Wall running release procedure

1. Please give the key item to the NPC near the Heaven Craft/Fire Bonfire.
2. You can run through walls/cliffs at high speed by holding down Shift.

Additional required skills are as follows.

• Jump Pounce Attack: Obtained at the General's Shrine. It is used for both exploration and combat.
• Offensive moves: It is possible to capture treasure chests from a distance.
• Aesculin: Long-distance stealing is possible.

As a practical tip, after learning light body techniques, get a lot of appearance items by exploring Kiyokawa. Wall running will improve your chances of discovering hidden routes.

4. Thoroughly utilize “Today’s Footprint” and “Description”: They are the perfect combination of exploration and reinforcement.

Today's footprints (equivalent to chivalry footprints) are the basis of daily routines and earn exploration points. The description is in the skill acquisition menu, and you can get magic by watching the practice.

daily routine procedure

1. Clear all footprint marks on the map.
2. You can obtain medicinal materials, experience points, and writing materials as rewards.
3. Please prioritize learning Taikyokuken (parry UP) and Yakugawa no Ougi (passive recovery) in the description.

For efficiency, please perform it immediately after light weight surgery. Maximize your exploration level in 30 minutes a day.

5. Exchange weekly lessons with academic points (level rise): secure valuable materials

Academic points can be used to raise your level (area) and can be exchanged weekly to obtain growth materials. This is the key to the weekly lesson, and if you ignore it, you will get stuck in the second half.

• Accumulation sources: exploration, story, trial sword
• Exchange priority: set equipment materials, weapon breakthrough stones
• Upper limit management: Please use it all before resetting every Monday.

Recommended table for replacement

Torikane iron	500	S	Used to strengthen magic
martial arts breakthrough stone	1000	SS	Use for new power
set armor	2000	S	Used to increase durability

Basically, there is no need to pay, but the 150 yen rides in the Shop → Appearance → Vehicles tab are special. Autorun, automatic transfer, automatic drop acquisition, and carpooling are possible, making the search semi-automatic. Recovery investment can be recovered in one day.

Billing priority: 1st place is vehicle, 2nd place is visual effect.
