How To Defeat The Earth Wolf In Black Myth: Wukong

The main problem with Wukong is that he is too strong for his own good , being able to defeat nearly anyone in both the heavens and the earth. Buddha himself ends up needing to get involved, sealing the monkey under a rock and placing a Golden Circlet around his head so he could not rebel against the Jade Empire ag

This is another one of those bosses where the setup is pretty simple. Prioritize armor with the highest defense, and a staff with the highest attack. There are no unique gimmicks that you can take advantage of with other equipment, so focus exclusively on the stats.

Of these three attacks, the only one that is truly dangerous is the Pouncing Attack, as once it is in motion it is nearly unreactable. So, you will want to dodge the instant his arms are fully raised above his head, as that is when he's about to pounce. The other two are easily dodged or run around, so they aren't really a threat.

Unlike Ring of Fire, Cloud Step can actually be pretty useful when it's first acquired. The spell lets the Destined One step into an incorporeal form and leave a physical copy behind , distracting the boss while potentially dodging some major attacks. Attacking while in Cloud Step ends the form but takes enemies by surprise with an Unveiling Strike that deals extra dam

One spear that is perfect if you want to try incorporating the Thrust stance into your playstyle is the Chu-Bai Spear . This spear will integrate spear techniques into your light attack combo, increasing damage this way, but you'll also get bonus damage on any Thrust stance moves as w

One of the earlier weapons you can get in Black Myth: Wukong is the Cloud-Patterned Stone Staff in Chapter 2, and while it will not be the best option in the late-game, it'll be able to carry you through a lot of the mid-game. It also encourages you to try out more charged attacks, which is a perfect technique to start honing around this point in the g

Fans of games like Sekiro might prefer this straightforward experience, while anyone who leans on magic in action RPGs may not see the appeal. Using the Spell Binder won't be for everyone, but for the right player, it could be the one Black Myth: Wukong spell worth hav

This attack is super fast once it is in motion, so you need to time it based on the animation that comes before it. He will raise his hands up above his head. Once his palms are showing, and his hands are above his noggin, get ready to dodge.

The protectors of the Tang Monk are not aiding him for the good of the cause, but to atone for their sins. Wukong specifically was a troublemaker who, while not often meaning to do harm, gets into all sorts of trouble due to his temperam

The story of Black Myth Wukong happens after Journey to the West , with the heavens once again sending their armies against the Monkey King. Once more, it is Erlang Shen, the mightiest warrior of heaven and earth, who manages to defeat the mon

I'll take you through the best strategies for mitigating this heavy-hitter's heavy hits, and help break down the different forms his attacks come in. With a little help, I'm sure you will be dancing on an oversized rat grave in no time!

As you are laying the smackdown on his butt, he will likely turn to face you mid-combo. Once he is facing you, he'll either try to crush you with a palm slam or smack you with a backhand. However, both of these attacks have notable tells, look for them, dodge through them, and then get behind him again.

The big caveat to Immobilize is that some of the most challenging bosses aren't as susceptible to it, quickly breaking out of the spell during their most aggressive phases or even punishing the Destined One for daring to use it. Despite that, it's hard to argue that Immobilize isn't a staple, and it's the natural contender for the rank of **Black Myth: Wukong ** 's best sp

The Chitin Staff is great at keeping The Destined One alive, with bonus health recovered for each Focus point you use with a charged heavy attack. On top of this, you'll have a higher chance of dealing more damage with the useful five percent to critical cha

Black Myth: Wukong is a heavily hyped game depicting an anthropomorphic monkey fighting against many other myths from Chinese folklore. But if you don’t know the origin of the stick-wielding monkey, you might be wondering what all the fuss is about, since Black Myth is a new game, not a seq

When you are in front of the First Prince at a medium range, he will still use his Pouncing Attack and Lunging Attack, but he will also start to use his palm stomps quite a bit. The weaker slams always come as a pair. Try to time the second palm slam for a perfect dodge. If he really winds up and slams his palm down hard, he won't follow up with another. ** The speed and impact of these palm slams make them easy enough to differentiate between. However, in general, I don't think you should be spending much time at this medium range, as that is when the First Prince is at his most dangerous.**
