At the end of the story, Wukong attains enlightenment and atones for his sins , and the Golden Circlet is removed from his head. The Journey Wukong went through was arduous, and many references to it can be found when playing Black Myth: Wuk

This guide will take you through everything you need to know in order to conquer this mountainous monstrosity. I will help you identify when to attack the Stone Vanguard, and when to back away. There is also a handy-dandy list of all the Stone Vanguard's moves so that you can look up any given move that is giving you problems and quickly learn a counter to it.

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.

Similarly to some other weapons like the Chitin Staff, the Spider Celestial Staff will encourage you to regularly use your charged heavy attacks to get some bonus healing from the staff's passive abil

Once you defeat the Stone Vanguard, you will receive the Sterness of Stone, three Silk, a Mind Core, and 1379 Will. You will also now be able to craft the Gale Guard Armor set. Wearing this set will provide you with bonuses for performing a perfect dodge.

In general, it is better to be close to the Stone Vanguard, than at a distance. Its close-range attacks are all telegraphed, and it is easy enough to side-step them and keep pressing with your own offense.

This time, however, it seems that Wukong did nothing wrong, and was simply considered a threat due to his unwillingness to remain in heaven. Instead of capturing the monkey again, the forces of heaven kill him , dividing his six essences among the ones that helped bring him d

Wandering Wight Spirit excels at heavy attacks that can flatten opponents, while Guangmou’s Spirit gives you the ability to summon venom-spitting snakes. Both spirits have high Qi costs but can help you deal massive damage to the Whiteclad Noble, slowly chipping away at his health bars.

Wukong originates from Journey to the West , a Chinese mythology bosses novel from the 16th century. In it, a Buddhist monk (called Tang Monk in the game) needs to search for several Buddhist scriptures. He is aided by three protectors , Wukong among t

One feature that can be quite easy to overlook in Black Myth: Wukong depending on how you progress your skill tree, are the different stance options. On top of the basic control scheme, there are also Pillar and Thrust options. While it might be easy to miss these choices, there are some weapons that will encourage you to experim

Patience Is Key : One of the easiest ways to defeat the Mad Tiger is to rely on your unlocked abilities and spells, and play around their cooldowns. The Immobilize spell, in particular, should give you enough opportunities to execute powerful combos and take away large HP chunks.

While you play as a monkey with very similar abilities to that of Wukong, you start the game as just another monkey. You have a quest to find all six essences of Wukong, and there are many references during your quest that plenty of other monkeys have tried before you, and fai

Prepare for a rocky battle when facing Black Myth: Wukong 's Stone Vanguard boss. Not only does this ghastly golem hit hard, not only is it as durable as it looks, but it also has a series of deadly ranged attacks. Nowhere is safe!

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.

As you enter its range for the first time, Gore-Eye Doaist will unleash a war cry and smack his mace on the ground after a short delay. This smack on the ground will release a shockwave of blood , while also splattering the blood on the ground. The boss may also use this attack later on in the fight.

During the battle, when the Destined One is at medium range, the boss might use this attack where he laughs and raises his mace in both of his hands, and blood darts will start to flow out of the lump on his back. These darts usually chase the player , and if you get hit by one, it is difficult to dodge the rest.

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.

One spear that is perfect if you want to try incorporating the Thrust stance into your playstyle is the Chu-Bai Spear . This spear will integrate spear techniques into your light attack combo, increasing damage this way, but you'll also get bonus damage on any Thrust stance moves as w
