Status Effects | Where Winds Meet Wiki
Status Effects in Where Winds Meet are impediments or occasionally improvements (buffs and debuffs) that are typically characterized for being either temporary or requiring a special condition in order to be triggered.
While out exploring the Jianghu, you'll be exposed to different status effects that can either enhance or hinder your character. Some of these can be inflicted by enemies during battle, while others can be encountered in your travels, including if you are impacted by a disease or something similar. We recommend keeping an eye on the status icon at the top of the screen, which will tell you how you are currently affected by any potential effects.
These can also be monitored in the Constitution screen, in which you can review various areas of your character, such as the Mind, Organs, Meridians, and Muscles.
All contracted illnesses have a cooldown of re-infection after healing, during which the same type of illness cannot be contracted again.
Please note, this page will be expanded as more status effects are discovered.
