Wo Long: Fallen Dynasty - Best Dual Sabres Build and Recommended Skills

Best Straight Sabre Build and Recommended Skills Guide for Wo Long: Fallen Dynasty

Build Overview

The Dual Sabres build for Wo Long: Fallen Dynasty prioritizes the Water Virtue for increasing attack power when using dual sabre weapons in the game. Putting points into Water also gives you access to ranged weapons such as bows and crossbows, allowing you to cover both melee and ranged damage dealing. High levels in Water Virtue also improve stealth which make it easier to perform Fatal Strikes to initiate combat.

A good secondary stat to invest in when maining dual sabres is the Wood Virtue which gives you the best incremental increases to maximum health and opens up options to use Wood Phase Wizardries to further increase survivability.

Wo Long: Fallen Dynasty Best Builds for Beginners

Primary Weapon

As mentioned, this build focuses on wielding dual sabres which boast immense combo potential thanks to their extremely fast swing speed. This lets you build Spirit at a faster rate compared to all other types of armaments so you can use Martial Arts and Wizardries more frequently in battle.

The dual sabres perform extremely well in one-on-one encounters but somewhat struggle when up against groups of enemies. Because of this, you will need to get comfortable with picking off targets one by one or using Wizardries to stay mobile when outnumbered.

Secondary Weapon

Bows and crossbows are the obvious choices for backup weapons when maining dual sabres. Having the option to engage foes safely from a distance lets you avoid taking too much damage compared to being in their face all the time. You can also use ranged weapons to stealthily pick off enemies from their group. Once isolated, you can engage them one-on-one which is much easier than taking on multiple foes at once.

Alternatively, you can also choose to switch to spears which have decent scaling with the Wood Virtue if you need a weapon with better range than dual sabres.

Stats to Prioritize

Prioritize Water Virtue.

The Water Virtue is your main stat to level up which directly affects the amount of damage you dish out using dual sabres and ranged weapons. This stat alone already covers the requirements to make your main and secondary weapon viable so allocate as many Qi points to it as possible.

Raise Wood Virtue as your secondary stat.

To improve survivability, invest some Qi points to Wood Virtue as well. Raising Wood increases your maximum HP more than any of the other Virtues while letting you use a few useful Wood Phase Wizardries to pull through tough encounters throughout the game. Leveling Wood can also give you decent damage numbers with some spears if you decide to use them as secondary weapons.

Put Qi points into Fire Virtue.

To benefit from the dual sabres’ combo potential, it is also recommended to raise Fire. Doing so further boosts the rate at which you accumulate Spirit and lowers the cost of using Martial Arts so you can use weapon skills more freely in battle. There are also some useful Fire Phase Wizardries you can get to enhance damage output even more, though they are not essential to this build.

Recommended Wizardry Spells

For Water Phase Wizardries, try to get Unseeable Form as becoming invisible has a multitude of uses throughout the game. Frost Lance is a cheap ranged ice projectile that requires 0 Morale that you can regularly cast, especially during the early stages of the mission. Alacrity Haste and Aqua Blink, meanwhile, are useful Wizardries for mobility for when you need to outrun enemies or continue building up Spirit by staying on them.

Obscuring Frost is another good Water Phase spell for easily dodging enemy attacks, most notably projectiles. It also has its uses against certain bosses to lower their chances of landing hits on you.

Finally, get Absorb Vitality from the Wood Phase Wizardry tree to let you heal each time you attack enemies. This spell works particularly well with dual sabres because of the weapon class’ fast attack speed. If you can, try to get Perfect Restoral as well to be able to tank through enemy attacks that would normally kill you throughout the various missions.
