One of the best aspects of spells in Black Myth: Wukong is how easy they are to use. They can be upgraded to increase their power and are highly versatile — often serving both as offensive, damage-dealing magic or as defensive spells to give players a breather and allow them to plan their next move. On top of that, players can freely respec their allocated skillpoints to upgrade and try out a new spell. Let's rank all the combat spells players can unlock in the game (excluding Transformations) to determine which are the best spells in Black Myth: Wuko

The Red Tides transformation spell lets you transform into Guangzhi, a Wolf Guai that deals lethal fire damage to his opponents with every attack. This transformation also gives you a secondary health bar that can help you survive longer in battle with Whiteclad Noble.

Now, when the game ends, it seems to do so abruptly, with many players wondering what it was all about. Well, for those wondering what that thing on Wukong’s head was all about, and if there are any other endings, you’ll find your answers here. We delve into the true ending of Black Myth: Wukong, explaining what it all me

Black Myth: Wukong 's combat is one of the game's standout features, delivering intense, fast-paced combos combined with the incredible agility of the Destined One, all topped off with an array of unique and powerful spells, transformations, and spirit attacks. Besides the temporary transformations, combat spells are divided into three categories: Strand, Mysticism, and Alteration. Each requires its own slot, meaning players can only have one active spell from each category at a time and must visit a Shrine to switch their active spel

Players acquire Immobilize at the beginning of Chapter 1 during the mandatory Bullguard roguelite Boss fights fight, gifted by the Keeper of Black Wind Mountain. With a few upgrades, this spell gives players the upper hand throughout the game, allowing them to control the flow of battle and interrupt enemies at critical mome

Spell Binder is a unique offensive Mysticism spell in the Destined One's arsenal, particularly valuable in situations where Immobilize or other offensive spells fall short due to certain bosses' resistance to spell effects. In these cases, Spell Binder is invaluable, as it significantly boosts attack power upon activation, making it easier to defeat such foes. When upgraded, this spell also removes all negative effects and restores Health. However, while Spell Binder is active, players are unable to use any other spell, vessel, or transformation, and lose all their Mana. Due to its passive nature, which simply boosts the Destined One's attack, Spell Binder isn't the most engaging or fun-to-use spell in Black Myth: Wukong eit

Life-Saving Strand is also the only passive spell in Black Myth: Wukong that players cannot manually activate. Instead, it automatically triggers when the player's health drops to zero, reviving the Destined One with full health. However, it doesn't replenish other resources like Gourd or Mana and has a 600-second cooldown, allowing players to be revived just once during an intense boss fight. While an extra life can be helpful in challenging encounters, the passive nature of this spell, along with its unlock requirements, places Life-Saving Strand lower in the rankings of the spells available in Black Myth: Wuko
