What To Do With Oddities

In Where Winds Meet, there are many ways to progress your character’s level and the Main Story, but Melodies of Peace are a mystery for most players. Some of them might have already found Oddities like the sneaky Dagger General, the elusive Ironwing Mantis, or the dangerous Enchanting Lotus. The problem is: What to do with them?

In this guide, players will learn about the value of Oddities, and how to exchange them for Stat Boosts, and special feature unlocks in the Harmony vendor Qi Sheng. From how to find these special items, to how to trade them for unique unlocks, here’s a full step-by-step on how Melodies of Peace work in WWM.

Melodies of Peace Explained: How To Find Oddities Trader Qi Sheng

Qi Sheng is a trader who offers special services in the Qinghe Region, in the starting zone of Where Winds Meet. He is located in the northern side of the Verdant Wilds. His stall is placed between the General’s Shrine Landmark Teleporter and the Wayfarer Camp, where players obtain their first Map. Talking to him will complete a special Quest called Melodies of Peace, which is also a tutorial for the system with the same name.

This system allows players to trade Oddities (Collectibles) for special unlocks in the Harmony perk tree. These unlocks can be Stat Boosts (HP, Precision, Critical, Base Damage), Special Martial Arts Manuals, Inner Way Passives, and certain Quest Items related to World Unlocks, like the Bronze Bell Fragment needed to repair the Demoncalm Bell (weakens World Bosses).

This is one of the best ways to unlock upgrades for the main character in Where Winds Meet since unlocked nodes will add to the overall stat values and increase the players’ Martial Arts Level (Gearscore), allowing them to participate in more activities. Especially for beginner players who are just starting their adventure, since these stat boosts will help them survive the challenging Bosses of the Main Mission.

To unlock every node of Harmony in Melodies of Peace, players need to invest a certain number of specific oddities found in the Qinghe Region:

• Talk to Qi Sheng and Select: Submit Oddities.
• Select any of the nodes, and check the requirements in the bottom right corner of the screen.
• Players can select: Add All (pressing F) or Activate (Spacebar) to unlock the node.

Each node has a specific associated effect, for example, The Music of Laiyi unlocks +4 bonuses to Minimum Physical Attack. That enhances the minimum threshold of damage caused with every attack, and the overall physical damage caused (DPS).

What Are Oddities And How To Find Them

Oddities are special collectibles that players will find while roaming the Qhinghe region, and each of them has an associated mechanic for collection. For example: the Dagger General (grasshoppers) are hidden in rocks or boxes that need to be destroyed. The Enchanting Lotus will prevent players from collecting them by secreting Miasma, unless they destroy the clouds of Purple Butterflies shielding them.

Below, there’s a full list of all collectibles found in the Qinghe Region, and the associated mechanics to collect them:

Oddities can be found scattered all across the Qhinge region, and can be found in almost every quadrant of the map (except for Dungeons). Remember that Oddities only spawn once, so when players collect them, they should go ahead and deliver them to Qi Sheng to unlock new Harmony nodes.
