As you progress throughoutBlack Myth: Wukong, the fights The Destined One finds himself in will get tougher and tougher, so you’re going to want to take advantage of every avenue possible to make him as strong as possible so you finish these encounters victorious.
While there are plenty of ways he can upgrade his abilities using Sparks, or harvest materials and Will to upgrade abilities, you can also collect accessories called Curios to equip and add passive buffs. You will collect plenty of these throughout the six chapters of Black Myth: Wukong, so which should you keep an eye out for and equip when you get the chance?
7Celestial Registry Tablet
The further you get into Black Myth: Wukong, you’ll find that The Destined One will start leveling up slower. This means that you’ll have fewer Sparks at your disposal, and you might struggle to keep up in certain fights if you aren’t able to upgrade certain abilities.
That is why keeping theCelestial Registry Tabletequipped for as long as possible is a great idea. This Curio will buff how much experience you get when you defeat an enemy, so having this equipped when you’re taking on high-experience enemies is a great way to quickly build up extra Sparks.
6Amber Prayer Beads
As you make your way into the mid-game of Black Myth: Wukong, you’ll start to discover just how important Focus points are to dealing a lot of damage quickly and ending fights before you’re beaten. However, if you don’t have a good technique, or are struggling with a certain enemy, then building up enough Focus can be a struggle.
That is why if you’re building up The Destined One to rely on using Focus points for certain abilities, then equipping theAmber Prayer Beadsis recommended. This Curio will increase the rate at which you gain Focus points, meaning you can use Focus point skills more frequently.
5Maitreya’s Orb
There is nothing more disheartening in Black Myth: Wukong or other games structured similarly than when you are so close tofinally beating that bossthat has been giving you trouble, only for it to get one good hit and for your run to be unceremoniously cut short.
That is whyMaitreya’s Orbis worth trying out for encounters that are giving you trouble like this. This Curio will cancel out the next fatal blow to The Destined One if they havebuilt up enough successful hits, so if you’re careful enough, you’ll be able to avoid death multiple times in the same attempt, but only if you’re aggressive enough.
4Back Scratcher
Almost everything you do when controlling The Destined One in Black Myth: Wukong will use stamina, especially when you’re in the middle of combat. Dodging, sprinting, and plenty of different attacks will use up stamina, and sometimes, you’ll be stuck in an awkward and potentially fatal position if you try to use one of these abilities after draining your supply.
If this is a common issue, you could go to the trouble of respecing The Destined One with Xu Dog, or alternatively, you could equip theBack ScratcherCurio, which will give you a healthy boost in stamina points.
3Glazed Reliquary
If you want to get better at the combat in Black Myth: Wukong, then the best thing to do is learn how to Perfect Dodge as best as you can. This is tricky since all enemies use different attack patterns, but if you can pull it off, you’ll get extra invincibility, and, depending on your build, you can get some pretty good buffs.
For example, if you have theGlazed ReliquaryCurio equipped, every time you pull off a Perfect Dodge, you’ll increase your stamina recovery. This means that you may take full advantage of dodging an enemy and can be as aggressive as possible when they finally have an opening instead of having to wait for your stamina to build back up.
2Tiger Tally
The best way to finish fights quickly in Black Myth: Wukong (which is usually recommended since then the enemy will have less time to deal damage to you) is to deal as much damage as possible, which is achievable with a good synergy between your build and abilities.
One of the best Curios to equip if you’re looking to maximize the damage-dealing potential of The Destined One is theTiger Tally. This will increase your attack after you have dealt successful hits in a light combo. With how frequently you’ll be doing light combos throughout most fights, this means you’ll build up a pretty impressive attack buff quickly.
1Snow Fox Brush
If you’re in a tough spot during combat in Black Myth: Wukong, then one of the best ways to get a short period of invincibility while also getting to deal a good amount of damage is awell-timed Transformation spell.
You can collect a handful of these throughout Black Myth: Wukong, and whichever one you prefer will depend heavily on your playstyle. However, these sometimes run out quicker than you’d like and before you’ve dealt as much damage as you’d want to. If you want a quick boost to how long you can use your Transformations, try using theSnow Fox Brush, as it will lengthen how long you’ll stay in your Transformation form.
