From the get-go, you'll have access to the Smash Stance. This stance prioritizes speed and power. The basic combo enables players to unleash quick, successive attacks that end in a significant final blow. Because of this, it is ideal when there are more than one foe to contend with. Players can bounce between targets mid-combo making it a prime choice for crowd control. Below are the skills available under this stree.

As a dragon boss, Red Loong boasts tough scales that grant him an inherently high base defense , and his attacks integrate lightning that causes the Shock Bane to build . Refer to the table below for a detailed breakdown of his attacks and how to counter them.

Shigandang is a secret boss, which you can face in Chapter 2. Unlocking and defeating this boss is worth it because you can get your hands on a new staff that will help you drastically on your journey ahead. Shigandang deals a lot of damage, but it has a major weakness that can be exploited to defeat it easily.

There are several spirits available in Black Myth Wukong money guide Myth: Wukong. They won't always be along the critical path. You may have to search all corners or alternate paths in an effort to obtain all of these spirits. Below is a comprehensive list of all spirits available in-game including their effects and passive bonuses.

As a variable combo, once unlocked, Pillar Stance allows you to use Sweeping Gale. This has the destined one plant the staff ahead of them and spin around it, performing a multi-hit kick in the process. This can strike multiple enemies around you, which can help clear some space if you're being swarmed by weaker foes. After purchasing the Gale's Blessing upgrade you'll take considerably less damage while performing the spin, making it less risky to use. After unlocking Churning Gale, you can hit heavy attack again after using Sweeping Gale to perform a wide swing with an extended staff, which deals a ton of damage and tends to stagger anything it hits.

Your initial Gourd can be upgraded with the Shen Monkey vendor in the first region, Black Wind Mountain . When you obtain the proper materials, you can fast-travel to the Marsh of the White Mist rest stop in the Bamboo Grove. The Shen Monkey is just down the path and can upgrade your gourd in exchange for the materials required. For instance, the Old Gourd (which offers 4 uses) can be upgraded to the Medicine Gourd which grants players 5 uses. You'll need the following item in varying quantities in order to upgrade your gourd.

"The thunder one belches lightning, the ice one exhales mist, the poison one spews filth, the fire one breathes flame, and the stone one howls and roars. Upon activating this skill, assume the form of a random frog."

In Black Myth: Wukong , you will be able to collect spirits from specific enemies throughout your journeys. When an enemy dies and a blue flame remains, that means that you can collect their spirit. You can then equip a specific spirit that grants you a specific ability for a brief period. You can transform into these foes and perform a quick action while also obtaining passive bonuses. Using a spirit in combat will cost you Qi .

"Take the form of Fungiwoman. Drift through the air with a mushroom cap and release spores. Upon landing, crash into the foe as the spores rain down to track and strike them. Spores that hit the foe can return and recover Health."

The attack is fairly easy to avoid by dodging . The boss raises one of its arms into mid-air as he sweeps it to the side. It only uses this move when the player is either on one of his sides so you can see it coming.
"Take the form of Gore-Eye Daoist, who wields a staff topped with a toad whose eyes emit a crimson glow. Stay within the glow and your attack will be enhanced. The staff vanishes on its own after a while."

While the staff isn't exactly a ranged weapon, the Pillar Stance aims to offer plays a modicum of range extending the staff for far-reaching blows. The Pillar Stance notably allows you to perch on top of your staff and then deliver a heavy downward strike. However, this option can also help players avoid elemental or shockwave damage that can be inflicted when standing directly on the ground. Below are the skills that bolster this stance.

Most of these rewards are high-quality crafting materials that will automatically be added to your inventory. However, after the boss fight, a golden chest also spawns in the arena that contains the Boshan Censer Curios.
You can upgrade or acquire new drinks that ultimately add effects on top of the health restoration afforded with each drink from your gourd. The effects vary depending on what drink is equipped. These special libations include the following:

Switching to Thrust Stance allows the Destined One to charge by holding Heavy Attack while remaining stationary. Upon releasing Heavy Attack, the Destined One can execute a swift thrust attack at a distant enemy.

Smash Stance also allows you to move around freely while charging a heavy attack and can even be used to charge while sprinting if you purchase the appropriate upgrade, making it a great stance with which to initiate fights. Running in with a fully-charged heavy attack can shave tons of health off an enemy or crush weaker foes in a single blow. That said, Smash Stance's attacks aren't great at hitting multiple targets unless they're standing in a straight line when you go for a Skyfall Strike, so you'll probably want to swap to Pillar Stance for that.
