Managing your daily progression is key to advancing efficiently in Where Winds Meet. The game uses a daily reset and a daily level cap system to pace your journey through its Wuxia-inspired world. This guide provides the confirmed daily reset time for all regions and a complete explanation of how the daily level cap works.
What is the Daily Reset Time?

How the Daily Level Cap Works
The daily level cap is a progression system that prevents players from advancing too quickly. It is directly tied to your Solo Mode Level.
Personal Progression: Your level cap is calculated based on the number of days since you started playing, not the game’s official release date.
Progression Wall: If your Solo Mode Level is too low, you will hit a wall that prevents you from continuing the main story until the next day’s reset.
Your level cap increases every day at the daily reset, even if you did not reach the maximum level on the previous day.
Daily Level Cap Progression
Here is a typical example of how the daily level cap progresses for a new player:
Day 1: Solo Mode Level 2, Player Level Cap 20
Day 2: Solo Mode Level 3, Player Level Cap 30
Day 3: Solo Mode Level 4, Player Level Cap 40
Day 5: Solo Mode Level 5, Player Level Cap 50
The specific level requirements may vary, but the system of a daily-increasing cap remains.
How to Check Your Daily Level Cap In-Game
You can easily check your current progress and limits directly from the HUD:
Look for the “Mode Switch” icon at the top of your screen.
Click on it to open the menu.
Select the “Solo Mode Level” button on the right side of this menu.
This screen will show you:
Your current “Today’s Level Cap.”
The requirements to unlock the next Solo Mode Level.
If you cannot raise it further, you will need to wait for the next daily reset.
