This item greatly increases your resistance to burn damage and can be activated to gain immunity from burn damage for a short while. Towards the end of Chapter 1, the Fireproof Mantle will be the first vessel you receive in the game.

It's surprising how easy it is to miss the option to upgrade your armour in Black Myth: Wukong, with the Ruyi Scroll Realm being avoidable in the main quest line. But if you manage to make your way to the smithy, you'll meet the stoic and slightly cocky Yin Ti

This attack is easy to avoid because of the small range. You can simply move out of the range or dodge away from the boss, but you’ll have to be wary and not get caught by this attack during one of your combos.

Defeating Elder Jinchi, a Yaoguai King boss, rewards the player with the Fireproof Mantle vessel . You don’t get this item right away. After defeating the boss, the Destined One will be teleported back to the third bell, near the Whiteclad Noble’s arena.

Beefy file sizes seem to be commonplace in the video game industry now , outside of small, stylized indie titles that go for a largely 2D aesthetic. Black Myth: Wukong is certainly not one of these games, and its realistic style and grand vistas require a lot of space to work. With most games released recently, this space also has to be stored in an SSD, which is, fortunately, more common now, but Black Myth: Wukong 's requirement of 130GB (according to its Steam page) is a lot to ask for a relatively linear g

With half the set outfitted, players gain considerable Damage Reduction for a short time, upon De-Transformation and exiting their Spirit state . With the Greaves' Unique Effect, doing so also negates the cost of Stamina of all actions for a brief moment to fol

As you journey through Yellow Wind Ridge in Black Myth: Wukong , one name comes up frequently: Yellow Wind Sage. They appear frequently in enemy lore and dialog as you make your way through this chapter, building them up as a powerful sage who can command the wind and terrifies many of their subordinates. Sure enough, when you finally make it to the huge whirlwind at the heart of Yellow Wind Ridge, you'll find the sage just as powerful and dangerous as advertised.

Efficiency could be the issue here, with game developers doing everything to make their games look as good as possible without trying to get more out of smaller file sizes. Yes, the graphical fidelity that developers can produce will require more hard drive space , but games always tend to have bits of unused content left behind. This cut content is usually found when scouring the game files and can give many players an idea of how a title could have turned out, but they also can take up valuable storage space depending on the g

At least, with **Black Myth: Wukong ** , it is obvious why there is extra storage required, unlike titles like Call of Duty: Warzones and EA Sports FC 24 & 25 . The game looks amazing, just like the original trailer a few years ago that blew everyone's mind. No matter what is said about the game, it is nice to see a title that delivers on its intended promises and doesn't falsely lead players into thinking it will look better than it actually does. Ultimately, the 130GB is a steep but worthwhile sacrif

Another important but unfortunately easy-to-miss character is Loong Chen, who starts off the entire quest line to unlock the Ruyi Scroll Realm, as well as acts as your sweet gardener once you've got him his medic

After his health has dropped by roughly 1/3, the Yellow Wind Sage will start to whip up strong winds around himself while boasting about his Samadhi Wind, whirling his staff overhead. If you have the Wind Tamer , activate it now to stun him and dispel the wind, giving you a huge opening to pummel him with powerful attacks (this is also a great time to use Pluck of Many.) If you don't have the Wind Tamer , you'll have to back off until the whirlwind surrounding him fades. It has a very wide AOE, so back away as far as possible.

Thankfully, the PS5 version of the game is a little smaller, requiring 104GB , but having a file size larger than 100GB poses a problem for players since the standard PS5 has 825GB of SSD storage, meaning that Black Myth: Wukong takes up practically an eighth of the console's storage alone. This could well be worth the sacrifice for those who love hack-and-slash action games and Journey to the West , but it could mean that some players will have to fork out extra cash for more stor

One of the best features of Umbral Abyss is its Spell. This puts you in the Cold-Hearted state, which further enhances your blade attacks, and similarly to Cloud Step, turns you into mist, specifically when you perform a Dodge . What's great about this ability is that it makes you momentarily immune to Attacks , mythic equipment locations allowing you to take advantage of performing a Dodge. With this Spell, not only can you evade a hit from a Dodge, but you won't take damage af
