Part of the reason why combat in Black Myth: Wukong is so enjoyable is thanks to the wide variety of options The Destined One has in combat. Whether it's spells , stances, spirits, or vessels, there are plenty of ways you can switch up your play st

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.

There is, however, one thing the Destined One doesn’t inherit: the Golden Headband . This head accessory simply falls to the ground, but it is picked up by the elder monkey from the beginning of the game, and he places it on the head of the Destined

Black Myth: Wukong tells the story of a seemingly nameless monkey, embarking on their own journey to claim the title of Monkey King (or rather, of Wukong). This involves collecting a series of essences, while at the same time learning the techniques and powers of the original Wuk

Cloud Step is a good way to do more than just dodge if a boss deploys a particularly tough series of attacks, and using it in short bursts doesn't waste too much mana. Upgrades to the spell increase the health and abilities of the Destined One decoy and improve the efficacy of the Unveiling Str

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.

But which transformation is the most fun to

You can still use the Pillar Stance to your advantage, but Phase 2 is the time to use your Spirits and Red Tides spell. Combine the Immobilize spell with the Wandering Wight Spirit to perform a combo that drains up to 30% of the Whiteclad Noble’s health. When the opportunity arises, use the Red Tide spell to transform and deal maximum damage to finish off the boss.

Once they have five senses, they have to return to the rock and collect the final sense: the mind. Doing so causes the Destined One to enter the rock holding Wukong , and they duel during the final confrontation of the game. The ending depends on certain side quests done before that fi

The big caveat to Immobilize is that some of the most challenging bosses aren't as susceptible to it, quickly breaking out of the spell during their most aggressive phases or even punishing the Destined One for daring to use it. Despite that, it's hard to argue that Immobilize isn't a staple, and it's the natural contender for the rank of **Black Myth: Wukong ** 's best sp

This was likely planned at the behest of Wukong himself , with the goal being simple: remove the Golden Headband from his head . To do this, a new monkey would need to rise and inherit everything that makes Wukong himself; the Headband is not included , hence why it isn’t automatically transferred to the Destined One at the

The Stone Vanguard has a number of moves that it will use to try to get you to keep your distance - with the Ground Slam being its most notable of the bunch, as it makes a large swath of the ground dangerous to stand on - it will then pelt you with its ranged attacks when you are far away, or leap at you with one of three attacks. That is its primary strategy.

But with Wukong’s story being so thoroughly told, what could we expect to see next? Well, if Wukong wants to bring down the status quo, we can expect a heavenly brawl not unlike the God of War series, facing off against the many Chinese mythological figu
