However, Wo Long Fallen Dynasty makes it quite easy.

Before You Start: You need to progress through the main story till Part Three of the main storyline, or you won’t have the option to respec.

  • Before you can talk to Zuo Ci, you need to complete the first mission in Part Three of the main storyline (the fifth overall mission), known as In Search of the Immortal Wizard.
  • Once it is done, you need to do the following to respec stats 
    1. You’ll need to fight against the Aoye boss to complete the quest and meet Zuo Ci.
    2. Talking to Zuo Ci allows you to reset your stats without any costs, and you can do it as many times as you want.
    3. You can see the effects of changing your stats in real time on the side.

How To Respec Your Stats

To respec your stats in Wo Long Fallen Dynasty:

  1. Accumulate Genuine Qi: As you level up, you’ll gain Genuine Qi, which functions as skill points.
  2. Choose a Virtue: Allocate your Genuine Qi into one of the Five Virtues: wood, fire, earth, metal, or water. Enhancing these virtues improves your combat abilities.

Completing In Search Of The Immortal Wizard

Before you can even think about trying to respec, you need to progress a bit in the main story. More specifically, you need to reach and complete the main mission in Part Three called “In Search Of The Immortal Wizard.”

  1. Initiating the Quest: To start this quest, you’ll need to reach and complete the main mission in Part Three. This mission requires you to explore the bamboo forest alongside Hong Jing in search of her missing master. You can begin the quest by talking to Hong Jing in the Hidden Village Hub, near a Battle Flag.
  2. Progressing the Quest: As you embark on the mission, you’ll encounter various challenges, including enemies like Morale Rank 10 Changgui, giant Huoshu, and a mini-boss named Zhuyan. Proceed through the quest by following the Battle Flags.
  3. Aoye Boss Fight: Near the end of the quest, you’ll face a challenging boss fight against Aoye, a cow-like demon. Be cautious of the demon’s tendrils, Critical Blows, and other attacks. Utilize different techniques, retries, and your Divine Beast to defeat it.
  4. Quest Completion: After defeating Aoye, a cutscene will trigger where you interact with Zuo Ci. He will provide information about the Tianzhu’s use of Qi and ask you to investigate the source of Demon Qi corruption in the valley. You will also unlock the Baize Divine Beast. Meeting Zuo Ci brings you closer to the ability to respec your character’s stats.

Finding Zuo Ci

After the main quest is over, you need to find Zuo Ci again, as interacting with him will allow you to reset your stats. You’ll need to revisit the Hidden Village in order to find him. The easiest way to find him is to use the fast travel option to the Hidden Village. After you spawn, look for the big house that can be spotted near the top of the village.

For a better reference, after you spawn in, immediately turn around, and you should be able to see the house. Head inside, and you’ll find Zuo Ci behind a small table and sitting on the floor. Head towards him and interact with him to get many options, including the option to respec.

Reset Parameters

To reset your parameters:

  1. Speak to Zuo Ci: During your conversation with Zuo Ci, select the “Reset Parameters” option.
  2. Adjust Your Stats: This option lets you modify your stats and redistribute your Virtue points as you prefer. You can decrease Qi from one Virtue and allocate it to another without penalties.
  3. No Limitations or Cost: The respec system has no restrictions; you can use it as many times as you want, and it’s free. This allows you to experiment with various playstyles.
  4. Consider Weapon Scaling: Distribute your Virtues based on the weapons you intend to use, as different weapons may benefit from various Virtues.
  5. Visual Feedback: Changes you make to your distribution are displayed on the right side of the Reset Parameters section. Highlighted stats show the impact of your choices.

Ensure that you don’t alter your stats to the point where you can’t use your previously acquired spells that you rely on.

Change Appearances

Another option that you might notice while talking to Zuo Ci is the “Character Creation” option. Under it, you can alter all of the aspects that come under appearances. It essentially opens up the character creator menu that you might’ve used at the start of the game. As you can see in the image above, you’ll get the option to change everything from your base model to your voice. You can even randomize to get a totally different look.

Summary

In short, if you want to respec your character’s stats, you need to first progress through the main story and reach the first mission of Part Three, known as In Search Of The Immortal Wizard. After you complete the quest, you’ll be able to visit Zuo Ci at any time in the Hidden Village Hub.

Zuo Ci will have many selectable options while you interact with him, including the option to “Reset Parameters,” which can be used to respec your stats. Additionally, you can change your appearance as well as access the Accolade Rewards, which allows you to use your Accolade points to trade in for all sorts of items and weapons.

With that you know how to respec your character’s stats in Wo Long Fallen Dynasty. The process is quite simple if you’ve progressed through the main story. And the fact that you can do it as many times as you want without worrying about any costs makes it an extremely handy feature to use.
