Black Myth: Wukong Essential Tips and Tricks List



No Penalty for Dying


Death is less punishing in Black Myth: Wukong than it is in other Souls-like games. There is no loss of currency or items. When you die, you'll just return to the previous shrine you visited, allowing you to begin tasks without having to worry of recovering lost things.


Harvest Resources Early


Begin gathering plants and other things as soon as you start your journey. Though crafting is not available until Chapter 2, gathering materials early ensures that you are ready to create helpful items, such as medications and boosts, when it becomes available.


Use Glowing Lights as Your Guide


Navigating the game can be difficult because of to its branching paths. Look for flames to guide you to the next Keeper's Shrine, which serves as a waypoint and fast travel point.


Prioritize Health Upgrades


Build on your character's health early on, especially as many bosses do high damage. Increase your health by allocating Sparks to the Robust Constitution node of the Survival skill tree.


Reallocate Talent Points


You can reassign Sparks (skill points) at any moment through Self-Advance: Re-activate the Sparks function at shrines. This flexibility enables you to adjust your build to individual encounters.


Customize Your Healing Gourd


Your healing gourd can be current and personalized during the game. Experiment with different Gourds, Drinks, and Soaks to see which combinations best suit your playstyle and the problems you face.


Manage Stamina Wisely


Stamina is essential in combat, affecting everything from preventing to attacking. Keep an eye on your stamina bar to avoid becoming vulnerable during  intense fights.


Upgrade Your Staff Regularly


The staff is your primary weapon, which can be upgraded with multiple effects and benefits. Check your staff's qualities and switch to a different version if you're having trouble with a boss.


Death Isn't a Major Setback


Don't worry too much about dying. You keep all of your resources after death, thus the focus should be on getting back into the game rather than worrying about lost progress.


Take Advantage of Jump Attacks


Use leap attacks to reach opponents on higher platforms or to start a fight with a quick, strong move. Heavy leap attacks may easily dispatch regular enemies and are effective against stronger enemies.


Use Spells Strategically


Casting spells can be interrupted, so time them carefully. Pre-cast spells like A Pluck of Many before dealing with opponents to ensure that your duplicates are ready to attack when you enter the fight.


Transform to Dominate Foes


Your character can shift into larger, more powerful animals. Use these changes to cause serious damage before returning to your original form.


Search for Hidden Paths


Look for gaps or splits in the walls that could lead to hidden places with valuable treasures, upgrade items, and essential resources.


Meditate for Extra Skill Points


Meditation Spots are set up around the game, providing a moment of calm and a free Spark (skill point). Find all 24 locations to unlock your character's full potential.


Take Breaks Between Boss Fights


With 81 bosses throughout the game, it is easy to become fatigued. Take breaks between battles to reset and refine your strategy for the next task.


Explore Secret Areas


Keep an eye out for hidden locations that provide significant rewards. Some of these regions are opened by completing side quests, so it's worthwhile to explore every aspect of the game.


Master Your Heavy Attacks


Heavy attacks can be utilized in mixtures or charged up for a powerful attack. Learn when to use each option to increase damage and freeze powerful bosses.
