How to Beat Guangzhi

Black Myth Wukong - Guangzhi Banner

Guangzhi is a fast-moving boss that can easily punish slow, charged attacks. Instead of charging heavy attacks manually, focus on dodging and using Light Attacks to build up Focus Points. Once you’ve built up enough Focus Points, you can unleash an instant fully-charged Heavy Attack for significant damage.

How to Beat Guangmou

Black Myth Wukong - Guangmou Banner

Once Guangmou's health drops below a certain threshold, he will begin summoning spectral snakes that fire poison projectiles at you. Attempting to perform any combo attack against Guangmou during this phase will almost certainly result in being hit by one of these projectiles, staggering you and inflicting Poison.

To counter this, it's best to save your Transform spell for when Guangmou summons the snakes. Transforming during this phase allows you to absorb hits and continue attacking Guangmou without interruption.

If Guangmou summons spectral snakes and you don't have your Transformation spell ready, it's advisable to avoid engaging him directly to minimize the risk of being hit by the snakes and getting Poisoned.

How to Beat Whiteclad Noble

Black Myth Wukong - Whiteclad Noble

This is required story boss that has two phases. He's very slippery and can attack you from a multitude of ranges, so take the fight slow and only attack him when it's safe to do so.

Just make sure not to use up all your resources at the start of the fight, otherwise, you'll have a harder time with phase 2 of the fight.

This is the boss found inside the Ancient Guanyin Temple. He's more or less has a souped-up moveset of the Wandering Wight boss, so fight it similary to that boss.

When he uses the move where he glows and spawns a bunch of corpses that slowly walk to him, kill off the corpses before they reach Elder Jinchi so that he doesn't get healed.
