The only weapon type available in Black Myth: Wukong is the staff. However, you can obtain more potent staves, some with unique passive effects, that'll help you with progression in the game's largely linear questline. Some staves can simply be upgraded with the right materials. Other times, rare weapons or materials for crafting weapons can be obtained through secret side questlines such as the case of collecting Buddha's eyes from statues in Chapter 2 .

Defeating Gore-Eye Daoist rewards the Destined One with its Spirit Summon. Using the Spirit Summon allows the Destined One to turn into the Gore-Eye Daoist, smashing his staff on the ground. The staff will remain on the ground, buffing the Destined One’s attack for a short duration, even after the transformation has ended.

Avoiding the blood darts is easy as you simply have to dodge them repeatedly . Dodging the shockwave is tricky as it requires precise timing. Make sure you’re not standing on any puddle of blood on the ground as the shockwave will cause the blood to explode, dealing additional damage.

Another very easy-to-miss transformation is Golden Lining , which allows you to turn into one of the harder optional boss characters: Yellow Loong. Just to find this boss, you'll have to put plenty of effort into destroying a mural, locating three other optional bosses, and then finally getting to take on Yellow Four Loong brothers hims

However, the best reward is the Luojia Fragrant Vine , which can be acquired after defeating the mini-boss. This item, when brought to the Shen Monkey, allows the Destined One to increase the amount of sips available from the Gourd.

In the words of Teddy Roosevelt, "speak softly and carry a big stick; and you will go far." While that quote references a broader view of global geopolitics and foreign policy, it's literal form uniquely encapsulates the Destined One's intimate journey. Your staff is your best friend and will see you through the most grueling fights in Black Myth: Wukong . While spells and spirits can aid you in conflict, it'll be the repeated blows and strategic strikes with your staff that'll bring down the toughest combatants.

As a required boss, you can’t miss running into the Whiteclad Noble when exploring the Black Wind Mountain in Chapter 1. You’ll find him in the Bamboo Grove area, guarding the end of the Marsh of White Mist Keeper's Shrine. This is close to the area where you meet Shen Monkey, an NPC that can help upgrade your Gourd in Black Myth: Wukong .

The problem is, Whiteclad Noble rapidly moves around the arena and can strike from any direction. To counter this, you need to stay alert and be prepared to dodge attacks at a moment's notice. Keep a close eye on his quick movements to anticipate where he will strike next. He might even use his spear to launch himself at you, either by sticking it into the ground and swinging off it or by simply swinging it towards you, so be on guard.

Following their completion of the fourth chapter in Black Myth: Wukong , players will obtain the Envious Tongue Relic. As it symbolizes the taste sense of Buddhism, Envious Tongue naturally extends the duration of all medicine effects, so having it in tandem with Hubris Noise is a match made in heaven. However, one of the Envious Tongue Relic's Great Sage Talents buffs an incredibly useful spell in Black Myth: Wukong , Immobilize, which just so happens to also be the first spell players learn in the game. They are as foll

Each stance has its own skill tree complete with unique talents and skills that offer both active and passive abilities to enhance combat.

Either way, Red Tides is a perfect transformation to learn at the beginning of the game. With the combination of short, quick, firey attacks, combined with the simple charge attack, using Guangzhi is an easy option and one you'll likely want to keep even when you unlock other choi

Once you've completed the base game, Wo Long offers three DLC packs to further build on its universe: Battle of Zhongyuan, Conqueror of Jiangdong and Upheaval in Jingxiang -- though be warned, the DLC reviews are mixed on Steam.

A prime example of this is Ashen Slumber , the ability that allows you to transform into the fire-breathing Third Prince. Depending on when you try and find this transformation, the boss fight might have already been completed, and all you'll need to do is raid his corpse, but even getting to that point requires a lot of seemingly random backtracking before you get the new f
