The core of Black Myth: Wukong is combat, and there are plenty of different abilities and items that The Destined One can equip to make every fight different . The one aspect that adds the most variety to combat is the spells, as they each add a new layer to consider when taking on different f

While the Centipede Armor Pieces are more build-specific, specifically for those who want to experience a Poison build, it is one of the best Armor sets in Black Myth: Wukong , and well worth crafting. By equipping half the set, aside from the general Poison Resistance provided, you will receive a huge reduction in the damage-over-time status effect from Pois

With half the set outfitted, players gain considerable Damage Reduction for Spirit-Absorbing Gourd upgrade 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

Continue along the path where the boss was located and follow the trail, defeating any enemies in your way. Eventually, you'll reach an area where you can meditate — this is the first of three Meditation Spots in the Black Wind Mountain region.

Granting The Destined One the ability to freeze any enemy in the middle of their movements, Immobilize lets you dive in and do massive damage before your rival eventually escapes the spell. There are some enemies that have attacks that mean the ability doesn't work on them, but most of the time, Immobilize is a great way to do massive damage or even just give yourself a chance to heal. Best of all, it casts quickly and doesn't cost much Mana eit

Black Myth: Wukong is hardly a walk in the park. While it is by no means the trickiest action game out there, you'll find yourself stumped on some bosses and likely need to backtrack to power up or grind, and some hidden secrets can be almost impossible to find without any guida

As a result, requests for the addition of a mini-map have become prevalent within the community. With numerous hidden secrets, optional bosses, treasure chests, and collectibles scattered across vast areas, the lack of any tracking system can frustrate players, especially when they're searching for a missing meditation point . While fans have already created their own external interactive map for the game, it would be ideal if the developers addressed this oversight in future upda

Even when you're there, you could miss the option to challenge Yin Tiger, since very few other bosses need to be manually challenged. And once you do challenge him, you'll then need to take down this incredibly aggressive foe in his tiny arena outside his smithy. His transformation is a lot of fun once you have it, but the process of getting it requires a lot of hurdle-jump

But, if players wanted to see those influences more overtly, one of the best ways outside the show itself would be Dragon Ball: Origins . The DS Zelda- like saw Goku’s first meetings with his friends, some closer to the book than others — Oolong’s introduction is almost 1:1 to Bajie’s debut in the novel, while others take more artistic license, like Erlang Shen inspiring Tien, or Wujing's ugly river ogre becoming the desert-dwelling Yam

Similarly to Rock Solid, your appreciation of Spell Binder will depend massively on how you want to tackle combat in Black Myth: Wukong. By using the ability, you're choosing to focus primarily on pure combat but have far fewer options when taking on tough enemies. However, there's a chance that you'll be able to take them down a lot quicker thanks to the buff. It's worth trying out if you manage to unlock it, but there's a likely chance that you won't want to keep it equip

Unlike many action-RPGs or soulslikes, Black Myth: Wukong features no map at all, leaving players to explore its vast areas entirely on their own. While it's clear that the developers aimed to encourage a sense of exploration without players relying on an artificial mini-map, this approach is a double-edged sword due to the game's level design. Early areas might feel relatively easy to navigate due to their streamlined nature, but by Chapter 2 — and especially in Chapter 3 — levels become far more expansive and layered, with numerous interconnected pathways and verticality. What makes this even more challenging is that Black Myth: Wukong 's environments tend to blend together, lacking distinct landmarks to aid in navigat

Another issue that hampers exploration in Black Myth: Wukong is the abundance of invisible walls , which break immersion and make navigating the game world even more difficult without a map. Frequently, players find themselves unable to progress despite the environment appearing passable. Conversely, some players might dismiss certain pathways, assuming they lead nowhere, only to miss out on hidden treasure chests or secret areas. This inconsistency makes exploration in Black Myth: Wukong occasionally feel lackluster, leading players to wonder how much better the experience could have b
