Black Myth Wukong is a challenging action game with no specific difficulty settings. For those who are familiar with this type of game and have experience, some bosses can even be defeated the first time they encounter them.
Some tough bosses require players to spend a long time studying their attack patterns and then develop specific strategies to fight them, with the factors of equipment, active skills, and consumables being carefully considered.
The game is full of tough bosses, which can be demonstrated when players meet Wandering Wight in the first hour of starting their game journey. Fortunately, most of the toughest bosses in the game are optional, offering a chance for players to flinch temporarily in order to make better preparation.
However, the unavoidable fact is that the final stage of the game presents some of the most brutal and powerful boss fights that players have to face on. Under this circumstance, players will undertake severe tests, even for those most determined ones.
Therefore, in addition to the necessary skill improvement, players must also have lasting patience, quick reaction ability and agile strategic thinking. Only by facing these most hard challenges, The Destined One could emerge victorious. This article will mainly introduce the 10 most tough bosses in the game. You can have a general understanding and make a specific strategic plan based on their attack characteristics afterwards.
10. Wandering Wight
- Location: Chapter One, Forest of Wolves
- Nearest Shrine: Outside the Forest
- Optional: Yes
- Two Phase: No
Wandering Wight has become notorious because of complaints from many players. While Wandering Wight’s attacks are generally of a slow speed and well-telegraphed, leading players descending into a false impression that this boss is very easy to deal with. But it’s totally wrong and disappointed.
Considering the fact that players have limited access to spells, skills, and gear in this first stage, together with the fact that Wandering Wight hits unbelievably hard and can kill The Destined One in just a couple of strikes, this boss is very tough to deal with. And this contributes to the reason this early boss fight has sparked so much frustration.
But this is an optional boss after all, so it’s best not to get into a tough fight with it first, and you can kill it after Chapter 1, after the player gains the ability to absorb spirits and claim its spirit.
9. Whiteclad Noble
- Location: Chapter One, Bamboo Grove
- Nearest Shrine: Marsh of White Mist
- Optional: No
- Two Phase: Yes
In a practical sense, Whiteclad Noble is perhaps the player’s first major test, as it is a mandatory boss. It characterizes two full phases with separate health bars. When the initial warm-up phase comes to an end, Whiteclad Noble will disclose its true form, becoming much more aggressive.
The primary challenge players faced is Whiteclad Noble’s incredibly fast movement and lightning-quick attacks, which makes players unaccustomed or uncomfortable. Whiteclad Noble relentlessly pressures the player, short-cutting the distance to strike and retreating before players deal counterattack. Therefore, players need to be patient and make full use of The Destined One’s dodge skill.
8. Tiger Vanguard
- Location: Chapter Two, Crouching Tiger Temple
- Nearest Shrine: Temple Entrance
- Optional: No
- Two Phase: No
Of the several Tiger Yaoguais players encounter, Tiger Vanguard is the most difficult. Tiger Vanguard performs Rock Solid spell, allowing him to deflect the player’s heavy attacks with high efficiency, leaving the player vulnerable to counterattacks. And this boss fight will last for a long time.
However, the most fatal move in Tiger Vanguard’s arsenal is a blazing-fast sword strike from behind that can slay The Destined One with just one move, especially in the situation that players haven’t devoted to increasing their health. To deal with this attack, players should employ Immobilize spell to interrupt him or transform immediately if Tiger Vanguard expresses the portent of placing his hand on the sword’s hilt.
7. Yin Tiger
- Location: Chapter Three, Zodiac Village
- Nearest Shrine: Village Entrance
- Optional: Yes
- Two Phase: No
The difficulty of fighting Yin Tiger depends on when the player engages him. Because it is an optional boss, if the player chooses to challenge him later in the game, the fight will be much easier.
If you choose to challenge him early, you do better to make sure that you have prepared to face full brunt of his enormous blade. Yin Tiger hits fiercely and owns surprising speed and agility. Worse still, he is immune to Immobilize spell. Because, it is recommended that players defeat him later.
6. Yellow Wind Sage
- Location: Chapter Two, Yellow Wind Formation
- Nearest Shrine: Wind Seal Gate
- Optional: No
- Two Phase: No
Yellow Wind Sage owns an enormous health bar, wide-reaching spear swings, and several AOE moves. He is equipped with ability to vaporize and deals strike from concealment. Players often suffer this insidious damage because they cannot find its specific attack position.
Yellow Wind Sage can also summon the giant sand bug spirit Fuban, performing massive damage if players’ dodge skill is not that fabulous. And Yellow Wind Sage can switch stances at any time and change combat mode, players need to prevent this variability.
5. Hundred-Eyed Daoist Master
- Location: Chapter Four, Temple of the Yellow Flower
- Nearest Shrine: Court of Illumination
- Optional: No
- Two Phase: Yes
Hundred-Eyed Daoist Master serves as the final boss of Chapter 4, a truly menacing opponent. At this point, the player’s strategic thinking is very important. How to formulate the right strategy to deal with his deadly attacks is an important factor in determining success or failure.
4. Yellow Loong
- Location: Chapter Four, Webbed Hollow
- Nearest Shrine: Relief of the Fallen Loong
- Optional: Yes
- Two Phase: No
Players have to slay all other secret Loong bosses in previous chapters to encounter Yellow Loong. And after defeating him, you can reap some rich rewards, with its transformation form, valuable crafting resources with high rarity, Golden Carp and so on being contained.
Yellow Loong not only has a fast attack speed and strong attack power, but can also deflect the heavy blows of The Destined One. Pay special attention to avoid his thunder damage.
3. Scorpionlord
- Location: Chapter Four, Purple Cloud Mountain
- Nearest Shrine: Bounds of Deity’s Abode
- Optional: Yes
- Two Phase: No
Except for the two ultimate bosses, Scorpionlord remains the toughest boss in the game. Scorpionlord is particularly aggressive, launching a relentless barrage of vigorous attacks with his tail and claws. When he attacks, venom appears on the ground, slowing the speed of The Destined One, decreasing the strength of attack.
In addition, Scorpionlord’ Great Sage’s Broken Shell not only has embraced all the skills that The Destined One possesses — such as A Pluck of Many, Ring of Fire, and Immobilize — but his staff attacks can also perform wide-ranging attack and cause substantial damage.
2. Great Sage’s Broken Shell
- Location: Chapter Six, Birthstone
- Nearest Shrine: Heart of Birthstone
- Optional: No
- Two Phase: Yes
It is recommended to prepare some spells, mana, and gourd sips to conserve power in his second phrase. Great Sage’s Broken Shell not only has embraced all the skills that The Destined One possesses — such as A Pluck of Many, Ring of Fire, and Immobilize — but his staff attacks can also perform wide-ranging attack and cause substantial damage.
This boss also has a variety of clever tactics to evade the player’s various attacks, making it very difficult to defeat. It is recommended that the player equip some necessary Black Myth Wukong Items and prepare for the next battle against the last boss.
1. Erlang Shen
- Location: Chapter Three, Mount Mei
- Nearest Shrine: Mei-Jian Peak
- Optional: Yes
- Two Phase: Yes
Erlang Shen appeared in the game’s prologue and had a brief fight with the player, but as the final boss, this will be the most hard battle in the entire game.
The Destined One can barely attack Erlang Shen, as he boasts a special deflecting bar and is immune to most of the skills. While Spell Binder may be helpful, it is much significant to get known to Erlang’s extensive attack combos and seize opportunities to launch quick hits.
The above is a sharing of the 10 most powerful bosses in Black Myth Wukong. Thanks for reading.
