Wo Long: Fallen Dynasty Best Builds for Beginners

Primary Weapon

Glaives will be the primary weapon for this build which are characterized by far- and wide-swinging  horizontal attacks that are excellent for dealing with multiple targets. Glaives also boast incredible damage output and Spirit depletion rate, making it arguably the best armament among the polearms classes.

Secondary Weapon

To benefit from raising Wood Virtue, you can pick up straight sabres as a viable secondary weapon which have faster recovery than glaives. Straight sabres will also allow you to deflect incoming attacks more quickly owing strikes being less committal than with glaives.

Stats to Prioritize

Prioritize Earth Virtue.

Focus on leveling up Earth Virtue the most as glaive weapons scale the highest with this stat. Having high Earth also increases your maximum equipment load, giving you the option to wear heavy armor that boasts high defense. You will also be able to use powerful area-of-effect Earth Phase Wizardry spells by prioritizing Earth so you can take on multiple enemies better than other builds.

Raise Wood Virtue as your secondary stat.

Put points into the Wood Virtue to help you tank through enemy attacks better. You will also be able to use a few Wood Phase Wizardries that give you better survivability against foes that hit exceptionally harder than the rest throughout the game.

Allocate points to Metal Virtue.

Increasing your Metal Virtue boosts your damage with glaives a bit more as certain weapons in the category have decent to above-average scaling with the stat. You can also dabble in a few Metal Phase Wizardries if you want, though it is not necessary for this build.

Recommended Martial Arts Skills

Recommended Wizardry Spells

Recommended Wizardry spells for the glaive build are  Earth Phase’s Rock Spike and Mighty Shockwave to knock enemies away from you. These spells can potentially interrupt certain attacks when timed correctly, making them useful against some regular enemies in the game.

For defense, get Enhanced Defense and Illusionary Shell. The second is particularly useful during boss fights, especially against enemies with massive AoE attacks that may be hard to run away from, deflect, or dodge.

Lastly, be sure to get Absorb Vitality and Perfect Restoral as well from the Wood Phase Wizardry tree to improve survivability on top of the already massive defense you get from heavy armor and Earth Phase spells.
