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.

From Chapter One's Black Wind Mountain, you'll have amassed a bunch of helpful Spirits . While the Wandering Wight is powerful, and we all love him, we recommend switching to Guangmou and his snakes for this fight. The Earth Wolf is susceptible to the Poison Bane , making this Spirit particularly effective.

If that was all Spell Binder did, it would obviously be unappealing to all but the most masochistic, but Spell Binder makes up for everything it takes away. The physical damage inflicted by the Destined One's staff is buffed when his magic is restricted, helping to make up for its generally anemic capabilities against bosses. Taking the Spell Binder approach can also make dealing with fodder enemies outside of boss encounters more effici

In Chapter Two of Black Myth: Wukong , the Destined One finds themselves in Sandgate Village. However, navigating this desert area is frustratingly difficult, not just because of the archers but also due to the many bosses surrounding the area's first Keeper's Shrine.

One early upgrade for Rock Solid makes it possible to cancel at will, which can significantly reduce the risk of getting the timing wrong. Even without that, it's worth having around to trigger at the last moment when a dodge isn't going to do the tr

As you make your way through Chapter 1 of Black Myth: Wukong , you’ll come face-to-face with the Whiteclad Noble, a half-serpent, half-human creature wearing a white robe. Even though he is not listed as a Yaoguai King or Chief, the Whiteclad Noble is considered one of the hardest bosses to face in the early game.

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

The Red Tides transformation spell lets you transform into Guangzhi, a Wolf Guai that deals lethal fire damage to his opponents with every attack. This transformation also gives you a secondary health bar that can help you survive longer in battle with Whiteclad Noble.

As for your Curios, consider equipping Back Scratcher and Cat Eye Beads . These will give you the extra stamina needed to stay aggressive and dodge effectively while increasing your chances of landing critical hits .

As aforementioned, both games treat armor and weapon build acquisition in similar ways, which also applies to loot materials. Instead of finding gear in chests, materials that help the Destined One or Kratos craft high-quality gear are found there instead. This is what allows players to step away from main objectives, and dive into exploration for necessary materi

However, to give yourself a big advantage, you should rock up to this battle with a few Tiger Subduing Pellets and Four Loong Brothers Evil Repelling Medicament . These will help you take less damage while dishing more out.

Considering how long it can take to run through some of the chapters in Black Myth: Wukong , Somersault Cloud comes as a relief when it does appear. The late appearance and lack of upgrades certainly feel limiting, however, especially considering that it's not possible to go back to earlier chapters and speed around with Somersault Cloud. From a design standpoint, it makes sense that the spell is restricted, but it does stop short of being quite as exciting as it could

The fight begins with Whiteclad Noble leaping in the air and lunging his spear at you. His main attacks in Phase 1 involve rapid spear thrusts, charged spear attacks, and water manipulation. He frequently uses his spear to create a powerful AoE water swipe, and you'll need to dodge carefully with the Pillar Stance to avoid taking significant damage.

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 .

At the start of the fight, you should close the distance quickly to prevent the beast from resorting to its leaping strike opener, which it'll likely do if you tarry around . Get the jump on it to land the first hit , and use your Immobilize spell to safely deal some initial damage.

Black Myth: Wukong features a very similar segment, which sees the Destined One in combat alongside Zhu Bajie, who deals a sufficient amount of damage to enemies while healing the player. This is an easy reminder of how ideal allies such as Atreus and Freya are in Ragnar
