Where Winds Meet: Chapter 2: Gathering of Heroes Guide

An original English guide to Chapter 2: Gathering of Heroes in Where Winds Meet, with route planning, preparation tips, objective checks, and common mistakes.
This is an original English guide for **Where Winds Meet: Chapter 2: Gathering of Heroes**, adapted from the linked Chinese topic as a fresh walkthrough. It is not a line-by-line translation. The goal is to give English-speaking players a clean route, the right preparation, and a reliable way to recover when the objective marker stops moving.
## What this chapter entry is about
The focus here is to complete the gathering sequence, track multiple NPC objectives in the journal, and avoid leaving the meeting area before all conversations resolve. Story missions often combine traversal, dialogue, tutorial systems, and combat, so do not rush straight to the red marker. A short detour to activate a Boundary Stone or collect a healing item can save a long return trip.
## Recommended route
Keep the quest selected in the Wulin Journal while moving through the area. Activate every Boundary Stone you pass, because a later return trip is common in Where Winds Meet. Read nearby letters, tablets, signposts, and NPC dialogue before leaving; many Remnant and Guard objectives update only after the investigation flag is triggered.
Move through the chapter in the order shown by the journal. After a cutscene, pause and read the new objective instead of following the old marker. When a character disappears, search the immediate area first, then check the map for the next story icon.
## Combat and progression tips
Use one weapon for stable damage and keep the second slot for a utility option such as healing, control, ranged pressure, or mobility. Spend Talent Points after the first safe checkpoint rather than during an active encounter. If the chapter introduces a new Mystic Skill, test it on normal enemies before the next named fight.
## If the story does not advance
Talk to every highlighted NPC again, inspect the nearest quest object, and leave combat before interacting. If the marker remains stuck, fast travel to the last Boundary Stone, reopen the quest, and use Return to Quest Point if the option appears.
