Best Weapons for Water Virtue Builds in Wo Long: Fallen Dynasty

Be water, my friend.

I have never been a water guy. When I was a kid, I used to swim competitively, but I grew to resent it for some reason. I’m not a fan of the beach either, since I get severe sunburns and the sand gets in areas I didn’t know I have. But don’t worry, I won’t say that I don’t like sand, my screenplay is not that bad. Shots fired. Anyway, if you do like water, philosophically, today’s your day. Here are the best weapons for Water Virtue builds in Wo Long: Fallen Dynasty.

Each of the 5 available Virtues will have a specific effect on your character which will, in turn, benefit those who have a specific way of playing. These Virtues are: Wood, Fire, Earth, Metal, and Water. Water is the topic of today, and, should you pick it as your base for your build, it will help you on your Spirit consumption when deflecting. Furthermore, it will also make you less prone to be caught by enemies, so stealth players will want to pick this Virtue. Here are the weapons that go best with the Water Virtue.
