Of course, Will is the in-game currency with which the Destined One can buy things from the merchants. Before fighting Kang-Jin Loong, you were only eligible to craft the battle robe * of the Ochre Armour Set, but with the help of the newly retrieved *Three Cold Iron Leaves , you can successfully craft the remaining armor parts .

"Take the form of Gore-Eye Daoist, who wields a staff topped with a toad whose eyes emit a crimson glow. Stay within the glow and your attack will be enhanced. The staff vanishes on its own after a while."

Performing Heavy Attack during Light Attack Combo with a Focus Point consumed, allows the Destined One to execute Resolute Strike. During Resolute Strike, the Destined One can see through the incoming enemy attacks and nullify their damage. Enemies that have been seen through are easier to Stagger.

Tiger Vanguard will turn into stone as usual, but this time, he’ll speak something and disappear for a short while. He will appear somewhere else in the arena, and launch a quick attack in your direction . It deals a ton of damage and the boss is guaranteed to use this move once after you’ve depleted half his HP.

After performing Tactical Retreat, Forceful Thrust, or a charged Heavy Attack, hold Light Attack to unleash Whirling Thrusts. The Destined One leaps forward to engage the enemy head-on, besetting them with barrage of staff strikes.

From the get-go, you'll have access to the Smash Stance. This stance prioritizes speed and power. The basic combo enables players to unleash quick, successive attacks that end in a significant final blow. Because of this, it is ideal when there are more than one foe to contend with. Players can bounce between targets mid-combo making it a prime choice for crowd control. Below are the skills available under this stree.

"The thunder one belches lightning, the ice one exhales mist, the poison one spews filth, the fire one breathes flame, and the stone one howls and roars. Upon activating this skill, assume the form of a random frog."

Defeating Tiger Vanguard rewards the player with the Key Item, Keeness of Tiger, alongside the Rock Solid spell . If you’ve also defeated the Stone Vanguard boss, Wukonggame noted you’ll be able to progress the story by interacting with the small statue in Tiger Vanguard’s boss arena . Doing so will open the way to the Yellow Wind Sage, the final boss of Chapter 2.

Following Light Attack with Heavy Attack performs Tactical Retreat. The Destined One hops backward and hones his defenses while preparing for another fierce attack. Following Tactical Retreat with another Heavy Attack that consumes a Focus Point unleashes Forceful Thrust.

In Black Myth: Wukong , you will be able to collect spirits from specific enemies throughout your journeys. When an enemy dies and a blue flame remains, that means that you can collect their spirit.

Using a spirit in combat will cost you Qi .

You may have to search all corners or alternate paths in an effort to obtain all of these spirits.
