How to Beat Nine-Capped Lingzhi Guai

Black Myth Wukong - Nine Capped .png

In the battle against Nine-Capped Lingzhi Guai, constant movement is essential. The boss's attacks leave red trails on the floor that explode after a short time.

If you're still standing on them when they detonate, you'll lose HP. Always stay aware of the red trails and keep moving to avoid damage.

How to Beat Nine-Capped Lingzhi Guai

How to Beat Flint Chief

Flint Chief
Flint Chief resides on the lava lake in furnace valley so stay on the rocky sides to avoid burn damage.

Cast Immobilize to keep Flint Chief near the safe areas and use Umbral Abyss to deal fast and heavy damage.

How to Beat Flint Vanguard

Flint Vanguard
The Flint Vanguard will be summoning yaoguais at the start of the fight so defeat the lesser yaoguais first to make the battle easier.

The Flint Vanguard moves slow but beware its blast AoE whenever it jumps down. Bring Immobilize and take it down whenever it struggles to get back up.

How to Beat Flint Vanguard

How to Beat Mother of Flamlings

Mother of Flamlings

Mother of Flamlings goes untargettable and summons flamlings to help her fight. Prioritize taking them down first to make her appear again and utilize spells while filling up the staff gauge to deal critical damage and win the fight easily.

How to Beat Mother of Flamlings

How to Beat Father of Stones

Black Myth Wukong - Father of Stones.png
To quickly defeat Father of Stones, start by using A Pluck of Many to multiply yourself, then immediately cast Immobilize on the boss. Once it's immobilized, unleash a barrage of attacks to deal significant damage.

Don't forget to use your Spirit Skill. Wandering Wight's Spirit can deliver heavy additional damage with each landed hit, potentially ending the battle swiftly or significantly reducing Father of Stones' HP.

How to Beat Quick as Fire, Fast as Wind

Black Myth Wukong - Quick as Fire, Fast as Wind

Defeat Quick as Fire first before Fast as Wind. Quick as Fire leaves behind a path of fire wherever he rolls and Fast as Wind shoots gusts at the player so make sure to attack in short bursts and do not stay in one place for too long.

Casting Immobilize will prevent Quick as Fire and Fast as Wind from moving and guarantees an easy victory.

How to Beat Quick as Fire, Fast as Wind

How to Beat Cloudy Mist, Misty Cloud

Cloudy Mist, Misty Cloud
Cloudy Mist and Misty Cloud will attack you in turns for most of the battle, but there are some moves where they will attack as a pair. Luckily, you can predict their attack patterns using audio and visual clues.

Defeat Cloudy Mist first since Misty Cloud relies on him for sight. Once Cloudy Mist is defeated, Misty Cloud will be easier to beat since his moves are slower and much more predictable.

Black Myth Wukong - Baw-Lang-Lang.png
Baw-Lang-Lang is a stationary boss with only one exception, its jumping attack. This means that during most of its moves, it remains in place, giving you a prime opportunity to strike.

Your best window to attack is while it's performing its own skills. Use Cloud Step to deploy a decoy, then quickly move behind it to attack.

Top Takes Bottom Bottom Takes Top

This is a simultaneous boss fight against the two enemies inside the big spinning ball of death. Focus down whichever one doesn't have their shield up to make quick work of this boss fight.

How to Beat Top Takes Bottom, Bottom Takes Top

How to Beat Bishui Golden-Eyed Beast

Black Myth Wukong - Bishui Golden-Eyed Beast
The Bishui Golden-Eyed Beast uses powerful scorch attacks and resides next to a pool of lava so equip the Fireproof Mantle and some Body-Cooling Powder to boost burn resistance and gain immunity over lava-filled terrain.

The Bishui Golden-Eyed Beast moves fast and aggressively so attack him from the side or behind to give yourself room to escape. Bring Immobilize for stuns and Umbral Abyss for extra health and quicker attack speed.
