While this requires skill to gain the benefits, you should still attempt to dodge hits as much as you can, and if you do get struck by a fatal attack, you will at least survive . While it isn't specific on how many successful hits it takes for the effect to kick in, it is worth experimenting to find

For example, Black Myth: Wukong 's first major boss is the Black Wind King yaoguai, whose features, weapon, and skillset are all inspired by the Black Wind Demon that Sun Wukong battles in Journey to the West . The battle with the Black Wind King in Black Myth: Wukong takes place in two parts — one against his human form and the next against his bear form. In his human form, the fierce foe wields a large Black Tassel Spear and can summon and control powerful winds that can briefly stun players who get caught in them. He is incredibly fast, and the first boss players may have an unexpectedly difficult time fighting. All of this is reminiscent of the same character from Journey to the West , but never has he been shown in this li

Laurel Buds Toward the end of Black Myth: Wukong 's first chapter, players are introduced to Shen Monkey and several methods of improving the healing drink. One of these methods is adding "Soaks" to the mixture, which will apply extra effects to whatever drink is currently in the Destined One's gourd. In Chapter 1, it is possible to find three such soaks.

As players can only equip two Curios at once, it is important to consider their effects, how they can best help you in enemy and boss encounters, and how they can complement your playstyle. While some are harder to acquire than others, all have unique benefits that will make The Destined One feared by many formidable Yaogu

Black Myth: Wukong 's Yaoguai Kings make up the game's most challenging boss fights , although very few are friendly like the Bull King. They are also unique in that almost every one of them is mentioned at some point in Journey to the West . While there are a total of 26 Yaoguai Kings in Black Myth: Wukong , the following comprise the best p

In Chapter 2 of Black Myth: Wukong we visit the Yellow Wind Ridge, where the second of the "Senses of the Great Sage" can be found. As we explore Yellow Wind Ridge we can potentially acquire seven more soaks to use in our healing drinks, so here's a full list with locations (whenever possible, as one or two of these are obtained by random chance.)

The Tiger Relic is a soak obtained by draining the blood pool in the Tiger Vanguard's boss room and heading beneath that area. To do this, you'll need to defeat the Tiger Vanguard and the Stone Vanguard, retrieving masks from them that can be placed on the statue in front of the pool. Once this is done, the pool will drain and you can head down. When you reach the section where you slide down towards the Cellar Shrine, you'll need to jump and perform a heavy attack while sliding to gain the height and distance to reach the platform where the relic is found.

At about half health, Black Bear Guai will shift into his second phase, marked by the flames going up and down his arms. Most of his attacks will stay the same, except now they will also cause fire damage buildup and burn you . If you completed the "Three Bells" quest as above and defeated Elder Jinchi, this is when you should activate the Fireproof Mantle to avoid all this extra dam
