Coordination is one of a set of Exploration Attributes separate from your combat stats or career progression in Where Winds Meet. These attributes unlock perks, new skills, and gear requirements as they grow.

- Coordination is an Exploration Attribute needed to unlock quality-of-life perks and equip certain gear.
- It doesn’t increase by normal leveling or combat — you must complete specific activities.
- Oddity collection (especially Ironwing & Enchanting Mantis) is the main way to raise it.
Main ways to increase Coordination
1 - Collecting oddities
The primary and most reliable method to boost Coordination is collecting oddities in the world and turning them in. Specific oddities contribute to this stat when handed in through the Melody of Peace system.

Key oddities to farm for Coordination:
- Ironwing Mantis (Qinghe) – This one consistently grants Coordination when collected.
Other oddities exist (e.g., Redmist Beetle, Whisper Hive), but Ironwing Mantis is the fastest route if your goal is to hit a stat requirement for gear.
How oddities work in practice
- They appear on the map as bee-like icons when nearby.
- Some require interaction (e.g., make the mantis fly and then catch it).
- After collecting enough oddities, visit the regional oddity trader and use the Melody of Peace interface to convert them into Exploration progress, including Coordination increases.
2 - Cultivate Abilities
When you view the Coordination stat in your menu, you’ll usually see two listed methods:
- Oddity Collection — reliable and clear.
- Cultivate Abilities — less clear, often tied to a specific highlighted area south of Qinghe.

Players report that cultivated activities don’t consistently raise Coordination and are harder to farm reliably compared with oddity hunting.
Tips for faster Coordination gains
- Focus on a route around Qinghe oddity spawn points, checking for Ironwing Mantis as your top priority.
- Be patient — Coordination rises more slowly than main combat stats and requires repeated collection and turn-in.
- Check your stat screen regularly to see which Exploration activities are currently contributing to Coordination.
Common hurdles
Some players experience oddities behaving strangely (e.g., flying away too fast or not appearing consistently). This may feel like a “bug,” but adjusting how you approach and interact with the mantis (facing through it, controlled camera movement) can help.
