Black Myth: Wukong - Bamboo Groves Walkthrough

There are quite a few items and buffs to unlock that make these duplicates more powerful, which means you can commit a fair portion of your build into making these soldiers borderline unbeatable, but the main trade-off for the power of this ability is its high Mana cost. This means it can be fantastic for shorter bosses or even standard enemy encounters, but in longer boss fights, you might need to focus more on saving Mana for other abilit

Goku is never really a villain, but a mischief-maker and playful thief, which is how he's depicted in most Chinese mythology and the novel Journey To the West . The Monkey King uses his cleverness and ingenuity to defeat demons, escape his bondage, and return to his subje


Unlike many action-RPGs or soulslikes, Black Myth: Wukong features no map at all, leaving players to explore its vast areas entirely on their own. While it's clear that the developers aimed to encourage a sense of exploration without players relying on an artificial mini-map, this approach is a double-edged sword due to the game's level design. Early areas might feel relatively easy to navigate due to their streamlined nature, but by Chapter 2 — and especially in Chapter 3 — levels become far more expansive and layered, with numerous interconnected pathways and verticality. What makes this even more challenging is that Black Myth: Wukong 's environments tend to blend together, lacking distinct landmarks to aid in navigat


Another issue that hampers exploration in Black Myth: Wukong is the abundance of invisible walls , which break immersion and make navigating the game world even more difficult without a map. Frequently, players find themselves unable to progress despite the environment appearing passable. Conversely, some players might dismiss certain pathways, assuming they lead nowhere, only to miss out on hidden treasure chests or secret areas. This inconsistency makes exploration in Black Myth: Wukong occasionally feel lackluster, leading players to wonder how much better the experience could have b


Granting The Destined One the ability to freeze any enemy in the middle of their movements, Immobilize lets you dive in and do massive damage before your rival eventually escapes the spell. There are some enemies that have attacks that mean the ability doesn't work on them, but most of the time, Immobilize is a great way to do massive damage or even just give yourself a chance to heal. Best of all, it casts quickly and doesn't cost much Mana eit


Instead of a historical adaptation of the novel, a popular method of interpreting Journey To the West is through a futuristic or fantasy lens .

Plenty of anime use some of the elements from Journey to the West as part of their setting, storyline, or heroes. There's a wide range of genres and types of anime based on this novel, with some only making references to it while others are intended to be full adaptati

Proceed along the narrow, tucked-away path, flaming chakram attack tips and you will come face-to-face with Guangmou , the second boss of the Bamboo Grove region. After a quick cutscene, the battle with Guangmou will begin. This boss is tougher than the frog, with a variety of attacks, including summoning snake-like creatures from the ground that throw poison at you. Most of his attacks can be neutralized by spinning your staff , but be mindful of your stamina.

Continue along the main path and cross the wooden bridge. You'll encounter an enemy in your path — defeat it, and a cutscene will play where you meet another monkey. Don’t worry, he isn’t an enemy; rather, he’s a merchant who sells valuable items. However, don’t follow him just yet. Instead, take the bridge to the left and open the chest to acquire valuable resources.


One of the first full-length animated movies to make it to the United States from Japan, Alakazam the Great is an interpretation of the novel that makes Goku the hero and leaves out the details regarding the Buddhist relics. Instead, it follows Goku's rise to the kingship of the Monkey Tribe and how he becomes arrogant, and even tyrannical, only to learn some important lessons and change his w

Guangmou can also inflict a poison status, so if you’ve purchased Antimiasma Powder from the shop at the Keeper’s Shrine, be sure to equip it. This consumable instantly cures the Poison status . Defeating Guangmou will reward you with the Guangmou Spirit.


Remnant: From the Ashes stands out as one of the first soulslikes to focus heavily on gunplay while also incorporating randomly generated environments. While this procedural approach can sometimes result in levels that feel uninspired or empty compared to more meticulously designed areas, the game's exceptional boss fights more than make up for it. These thrilling encounters (paired with the great rewards they offer ) significantly enhance the overall experie
