Where Winds Meet Version 2.1 Patches Display Bugs, Expands Build Mode Controls
Where Winds Meet received its Version 2.1 patch on August 20, 2026, deployed during a non-disruptive maintenance window running from 5:00 to 10:00 UTC+8. Players could log in and play throughout, though some features and modes were temporarily unavailable.
What changed
Bug fixes
- A visual issue caused certain in-game values to display incorrectly; accumulated progress was not affected.
- Buff food and buff scrolls appeared incorrectly in the Rare Rewards preview — actual draw results and rewards received were unaffected.
- Makeup obtained from an event could not be used after acquisition; this has been resolved.
Optimizations
- Build Mode's Free Camera and Bird's-Eye Camera now support two-finger pinch-to-zoom on touchscreens and scroll-wheel zoom with a mouse.
- In Build Mode, the LB / RB controller buttons can now be held for continuous camera adjustment and building rotation.
- The Retainer dispatch candidate list in the Homestead has been reworked so Retainer status is easier to read at a glance.
- The Vernal Umbrella Martial Art's Attunement effects have been adjusted: on Tier 96 and higher gear, two existing Attunement affixes are merged into one that applies to both the Special Skill and the Light Charged Skill, reducing the cost of building multiple strategies. A new Attunement affix is also added for Tier 91 gear inheriting Attunement — though the source text is truncated before this change is fully described.
For most players, the practical gains are modest but meaningful: cleaner camera control in Build Mode, a more legible Homestead screen, and the reassurance that visual bugs were cosmetic rather than consequential.
