If you’re looking for a defensive skill in Where Winds Meet, Golden Body is one of the best Mystic abilities you can unlock. It gives you strong protection, boosts your survivability, and becomes even more powerful as you upgrade it. Whether you’re taking on tough bosses or exploring dangerous areas, this skill can make a huge difference. Here’s how to unlock it and what it actually does once you have it.
How To Unlock The Golden Body Skill
To unlock the Golden Body skill, head over to the Grand Imperial Temple in Kaifeng during the morning. Go to the northeast corner of the temple grounds and look for Shi Yi, a young monk practising in the garden. Use Celestial Seize on him, and you’ll have a good chance of getting the Golden Body Scroll, which unlocks the Mystic Skill.
Golden Body Skill In Where Winds Meet
The Golden Body skill gives your character a calm, upright stance and turns you nearly unbreakable for about eight seconds. During that time, you gain a powerful Shield and steady Qi recovery. As long as that Shield stays active, you also get extra Fortitude and take less damage, making you much tougher to bring down. This makes Golden Body especially handy on the Stonesplit Path, where both the Shield and the defensive buffs can really save you.
As you upgrade the skill, it gets even better. At Tier 2, Golden Body reduces incoming damage even more and lasts a bit longer. On top of that, whenever any Shield you have, whether from Golden Body or another source, disappears, half of whatever was left on it turns into healing for you, which is a huge survivability boost.
At Tier 3, if your Vitality is at 100 or higher and other players are close to you, using Golden Body will cost a bit more Vitality and gain a short cooldown, but the trade-off is worth it: your Perception gets converted into a big AoE Shield that protects everyone around you. Then at Tier 4, the Vitality cost becomes lighter, making the skill easier to use more often without draining your resources too quickly.
