Since Soulslikes make up a sub-genre of the action RPG space, it can be difficult to discern the differences between the two at times. In light of Black Myth: Wukong 's technical classification as an action RPG and its constant comparisons to the Soulslike genre, it's worth examining which aspects of the game cause it to lean more toward the action RPG spectrum and which might justify its unofficial categorization as a true Soulslike g

This one is another special case, not unlike the Tender Jade Lotus soak in chapter 1. There's a chance for you to get the Steel Ginseng Soak whenever you harvest Ginseng. One place you can find ginseng is in the narrow crevice where the Man-In-The-Stone can be found. The Ginseng is underneath a bridge, making it fairly easy to drop next to it from above if you head backwards through the area from the Rockcrest Flat Shrine.

At about half health, Black Bear Guai will shift into his second phase, marked by the flames going up and down his arms. Most of his attacks will stay the same, except now they will also cause fire damage buildup and burn you . If you completed the "Three Bells" quest as above and defeated Elder Jinchi, this is when you should activate the Fireproof Mantle to avoid all this extra dam

The Tiger Relic is a soak obtained by draining the blood pool in the Tiger Vanguard's boss room and heading beneath that area. To do this, you'll need to defeat the Tiger Vanguard and the Stone Vanguard, retrieving masks from them that can be placed on the statue in front of the pool. Once this is done, the pool will drain and you can head down. When you reach the section where you slide down towards the Cellar Shrine, you'll need to jump and perform a heavy attack while sliding to gain the height and distance to reach the platform where the relic is found.

To get this useful artifact, players must defeat the formidable Black Wind King Yaoguai , the second-to-last boss in Chapter 1. This tough opponent can be found in the Black Wind Cave region after the boss fight against Whiteclad Noble in Black Myth: Wukong .

Erlang will then transform into a giant, leonine beast, and the Destined One will need to defeat him in a one-on-one duel.

If you still have mana left at this point in the fight, and you can time the spell right, casting Immobilize while Black Bear Guai is in the mist form will actually interrupt the attack. He'll be stunned just long enough for you to get a couple of good hits before he starts attacking again. As long as you have the mana, this trick will make Phase Two eas

Last but not least, it's important to discuss what has probably been one of the biggest questions regarding this game for years. Is it a true Soulslike? Well, the answer is yes and no.
