How to Get Panacea Fan in Where Winds Meet
Complete guide to unlocking the Panacea Fan healing weapon in Where Winds Meet. Learn all three methods and grab the Royal Remedy Inner Way.
Why You Want the Panacea Fan
The Panacea Fan won’t win any damage competitions, and honestly, it’s not the flashiest weapon in the game. But here’s the thing—if you want to play a healer role or just don’t want to burn through healing resources while exploring, this weapon is indispensable.
The damage-per-second is intentionally low, but what you get in return is reliable, accessible healing that keeps you in the fight longer. Pair it with an aggressive DPS weapon and you’ve got yourself a genuinely well-rounded build. Early on, it can feel like a lifesaver when you’re learning boss patterns.

Three Ways to Unlock Panacea Fan
You have three options for getting the Panacea Fan:
- Choose it as your starting reward from Qi Sheng early in the game
- Observe a Panacea Fan master in Qinghe (requires Skill Theft)
- Join the Silver Needle Sect (unlocks later)
If you didn’t grab it from Qi Sheng at the start, the Skill Theft route is your next best option. It’s accessible relatively early and comes with a bonus—you can grab the Royal Remedy Inner Way at the same time.
How to Get Panacea Fan via Skill Theft
Location: The Hidden Dungeon
The Panacea Fan master is tucked inside a dungeon near the first Wayfarer you encounter in the game. Here’s what you need to know before heading there:
Requirement: You’ll need a Dragon Key to access the dungeon. You can get one by:
- Progressing through the main story
- Clearing Outposts in the world
Good News: The dungeon is small and straightforward—navigation won’t be an issue.
Step-by-Step Walkthrough
1. Enter and Go Invisible Once you enter the dungeon, you’ll automatically turn invisible. This is key—the guards won’t see you, so you can move freely.
2. Sneak Past Guards Work your way through the dungeon carefully. The guards can’t see you while you’re invisible, but don’t take unnecessary risks. Head toward your quest objective marker.
3. Reach the Master Keep moving until you reach the spot marked by your quest objective. This is where the Panacea Fan master will be practicing.
4. Skill Theft Minigame Once you’re in position, a Skill Theft minigame starts. Here’s how it works:
- Watch for a yellow ring converging toward your observation target
- Press the button on screen when the ring reaches the center
- Time it correctly multiple times to successfully steal the skill
Get the timing right, and you’ll unlock the Panacea Fan martial arts style. Congratulations—you’re now a healer.
Royal Remedy Inner Way: Boost Your Healing

What Is Royal Remedy?
Royal Remedy is an Inner Way (passive ability) that directly increases the potency of one of the Panacea Fan’s key abilities—specifically its Cloudburst Healing skill. If you’re going to use the Panacea Fan, grabbing this inner way will noticeably improve your healing output.
How to Get Royal Remedy
It’s in a chest inside the same dungeon where you learned Panacea Fan. Here’s the route:
1. Head to the First Big Room Enter the main open area of the dungeon. Look for the steps that lead down to the big yard area.
2. Locate the Window To the left of those descending steps, you’ll find a small window. This is your ticket to the side area where the chest is hidden.
3. Crouch and Squeeze Through Crouch down and squeeze through that window carefully. This will take you to a separate section with guards patrolling.
4. Deal with the Guards You have options here, but the cleanest approach is using the Touch of Death skill to knock them out silently. You can get Touch of Death by completing the “Echoes of Old Battles” quest in Where Winds Meet.
5. Open the Chest Once the guards are handled, open the chest to grab the Royal Remedy Inner Way.
Bonus Tip
If you don’t have Touch of Death yet, you can still sneak around the guards while invisible. Just be patient and time your movements carefully.
Building Around Panacea Fan
Now that you’ve got the weapon and the Royal Remedy, here’s how to get the most out of it:
Best Weapon Pairing: The Panacea Fan works best paired with an aggressive DPS weapon like the Infernal Twinblades, Nameless Sword, or Vernal Umbrella. This lets you deal damage while having healing backup.
Playstyle:
- Use the Panacea Fan during downtime between attacks
- Let your healing charges recover naturally
- Don’t expect it to fully sustain you through boss fights on first attempts (healing gets reduced in story encounters)
- Think of it as a “between-pulls” tool rather than a carry mechanism
Inner Ways Synergy: Beyond Royal Remedy, look for general Inner Ways that boost your survivability or reduce resource consumption. This makes your healing more efficient overall.
