Guangmou Whiteclad Noble

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.
