Right after Wishvale gets destroyed, your revenge story starts and you’ll get to decide which of the three main antagonists you want to go after first. So if you’re wondering if you should choose Wealth, Power, or Fame in Octopath Traveler 0, here’s everything you need to know.
Choosing Wealth, Power or Fame in Octopath Traveler 0

First off, here are the Wealth, Power, and Fame options in Octopath Traveler 0:
| Option | Description |
|---|---|
| Wealth | Start in the verdant forests of the Woodlands. Herminia, the Covetous Witch Sets influence to Wealth and raises Wealth influence. |
| Power | Start in the snow-swept frontiers of the Frostlands. Tytos, the Hero Sets influence to Power and raises Power influence. |
| Fame | Start in the grassy meadows of the Flatlands. Auguste, the Genius Playwright Sets influence in Fame and raises Fame influence. |
Here’s the thing. The only difference is what influence you start with and which biome Wishvale is located in. If you want Wishvale to be somewhere snowy, start with Power. If you want something a little more foresty and cozy, choose Wealth.
As for influence, this really only determines which stat will increase faster. All three stats are important as every NPC in the game responds to a different one. Having a high Wealth stat with an NPC who responds to Wealth, for example, will make it easier for you to use Path Actions on them. All three stats will get raised equally as you play through the game and complete quests, so this decision really isn’t all that important unless you care about which biome you start with.
It’s also worth noting that choosing one won’t lock you out of the other quests. Even if you choose to beeline through Herminia’s quest, you still need to complete Power and Fame in order to progress through the rest of the story. In short, pick the biome that speaks to you the most and get started.
And that’s everything you need to know about choose Wealth, Power, or Fame in Octopath Traveler 0.
