Windwalking is Blade & Soul's most basic form of transportation. By double tapping W, you immediately transition into Windwalking, granting you an incredible boost in both speed and agility. While in this state you run at very high speeds, jump incredibly high, and perform some visually impressive acrobatics while doing so.
However, there is a limitation to this ability. Aside from only being able to use Windwalking out of combat, this mechanic requires Stamina, whose meter is located directly under the HP and Focus meters. Stamina will drain at a constant rate while Windwalking. Once this meter is depleted, the player will be forced to stop and will not be able to Windwalk until they have recovered some Stamina.
Basic Windwalking skills are obtained while going through Heaven's Reach. Windwalking is one of the fastest ways to travel outside of Windstride. More windwalking skills can be trained from Old Man Cho's windwalking quests, starting at Jadestone Village. You need to talk to the Elderly Hermit to start the Windwalking questline.
