Thundercry Blade Guide: How to Get It and Best Uses in Where Winds Meet

Learn how to obtain the Thundercry Blade in Where Winds Meet, its abilities, and why it pairs perfectly with the Stormbreaker Spear.

Ever found yourself surrounded by a horde of enemies in Where Winds Meet, wishing you had a weapon that could just wipe them all out? Or maybe you're up against a massive boss and need something that hits like a truck. The Thundercry Blade might be exactly what you're looking for. This Tank weapon is a beast at clearing groups and dealing massive damage to big targets. Let's dive into how to get it and what makes it so special.

First things first, you can grab the Thundercry Blade early on. Qi Sheng, the NPC you meet near the start of the campaign, offers it as one of four Weapon Martial Arts. All you gotta do is return a Mystic Oddity to him, and he'll let you pick your reward. It's a no-brainer to choose this or the Vernal Umbrella right away. If you skip it, you'll have to wait until you reach Keifeng, the next region, to get it the normal way.

What's the normal way, you ask? You'll need to perform a Skill Theft on a target at the Well of Heaven Martial Camp, which is in southern Keifeng. That's where the Thundercry Blade is taught, so go there and steal the technique.

Now, let's talk about how it works. The Thundercry Blade uses a unique resource called Fighting Spirit, which it shares with the Stormbreaker Spear. And here's the kicker: it can also benefit from the Drumbeat effect, which you can only get from the Stormbreaker Spear's Heavy Attack. That means these two weapons are basically made for each other. You'll want to have the Stormbreaker Spear in your loadout to get the most out of the Thundercry Blade.

So, what are you waiting for? If you're aiming for a Tank build that can handle anything, grab the Thundercry Blade early and start experimenting. Did this guide help you decide? Let me know in the comments below!
