Understanding Daily Resets in Where Winds Meet
Where Winds Meet combines gorgeous martial arts combat, wuxia exploration, and open-world freedom with surprisingly intricate progression systems. One mechanic that affects your daily routine more than you might expect is the daily server reset—that moment when your progression unlocks for the day.
If you’re planning your gaming sessions or wondering why you hit a progression wall mid-day, understanding the reset time is crucial. This guide breaks down exactly when that reset happens, what it means for your character, and how to plan your daily playtime around it.
The Daily Server Reset Explained

What Happens at Reset?
The daily server reset is when your Solo Mode Level cap unlocks. This is the critical moment that lets you continue progressing through the story and leveling your character each day.
Think of it as a hard checkpoint on your account. Hit the Solo Mode Level cap early in the day? You won’t advance further until tomorrow’s reset. This time-gate system is intentional—it prevents players from rushing through the entire storyline in a weekend.
Global vs. Local Time
Here’s something important: the reset time is globally fixed, meaning every player worldwide experiences the reset at the exact same moment in real time. However, what that moment looks like for you depends entirely on your local time zone.
So if you’re in Asia and a friend is in Europe, you’ll both hit the reset at the same server moment—but your clocks will show completely different times. Plan accordingly.

Solo Mode Level Cap System
How Level Caps Work
Where Winds Meet uses a unique Solo Mode Level system that gates your progression daily. These caps aren’t just arbitrary limits—they’re designed to pace the story and prevent players from burning through content too quickly.
Your Solo Mode Level caps start from Day 1 (when you first boot up the game) and increase automatically after each daily reset, whether you hit the previous day’s cap or not. This means you don’t fall behind if you skip a day or take it slower.
Day-by-Day Level Progression
Here’s the level cap breakdown as reported consistently by players:
| Day | Solo Mode Level Cap | Player Level Cap |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | Lv 2 | 20 |
| 2 | Lv 3 | 30 |
| 3 | Lv 4 | 40 |
| 4 | Lv 5 | 50 |
| 5 | Lv 6 | 60 |
Note: This progression hasn’t been officially confirmed by developers yet. These numbers come from consistent player reports. We’ll update this guide once official confirmation or in-game verification is available.
Checking Your Current Cap
You can view your current Solo Mode Level cap anytime:
- Open the Menu
- Go to Mode Switch
- Select Solo Mode Level
Your current cap and the time until the next reset will be displayed here. This is useful for planning your session—if you’re close to the cap, you know you’re almost at today’s progression ceiling.
Planning Your Daily Playtime
Hitting the Cap Early?
If you’re a dedicated player and you hit the Solo Mode Level cap early in the day, you have options:
- Explore the open world – Farm materials, hunt secret areas, complete side content
- Grind other progression systems – Work on weapon upgrades, Inner Ways, or Mystic Arts
- Prepare for tomorrow – Stock up resources you’ll need when tomorrow’s reset unlocks
- Enjoy PvP or multiplayer content – These aren’t gated by Solo Mode Level caps
Missing Today’s Cap?
Don’t stress. The next day’s cap unlocks automatically regardless of whether you hit today’s limit. The system is forgiving by design—it’s meant to let you enjoy the game at your own pace, not force you into daily grinding.
Maximizing Your Progression
Plan around the reset: If you have free time right after reset, that’s the perfect moment to dive into story progression while the cap is fresh.
Use downtime wisely: If you hit the cap mid-session, switch gears and work on side content or grinding systems that aren’t time-gated.
Time zone advantage: Depending on where you live, the reset might happen at a convenient time (like morning tea in London) or inconvenient time (like 2:30 AM in New Delhi). Knowing your reset time helps you decide whether to stay up or sleep first.
Check the menu daily: A quick glance at Mode Switch > Solo Mode Level tells you exactly where you stand and when the next cap unlocks.
