Folk Opera set decreases the difficulty in the initial game phase. Because the base default set stats are bad. I have seen people with folk opera set having easier time with wandering wright that the normal base set. That's the biggest advantage of this set.
Also the gold embroidered set is best IMO. because I beat toughest bosses with chill builds using Fan vessel. There is no other way to stop the hardest bosses in game with their infinite mana, health and stamina pools doing 100+ continuous combos.
i just unlocked the Bull King set on my first playthrough. During the Golden-eye Beast fight i got knocked through a wall and i kept running then when i killed the Beast it unlocked the set and the staff. Is this a glitch?
@@EthanJackson-e4g Cloud step is great, when dealing with bosses having infinite combos. You can heal and perform unveiling strike/charged attacks. Rock solid does nothing to stop onslaught of bosses. I tried it on Yellow Loong but that guy was barely pushed back before continued with his combo in no time. And since the mana cost is same for both spells, cloud step wins it for me.
@@HappyGamerz946 i understand that cloud step but as someone who has played bloodborne sekiro and sifu and beaten all like 7 times im a sucker for badass parries and rock solid is just as cool if not cooler than the gun parry fron bloodborne. Its just preference but i respect ur opinion
I really liked rock solid. I used in my second playthrough, and didn't regret. You build more focus, so you have more chances to parry enemy attacks. In boss fights like Erlang and Broken Shell it was really helpful.
I want to say a small note on the serpent battle robe, it DOES work at that boss at the very end of chapter 6 (avoiding spoilers) so if you are REALLY struggling with heals and stamina it can be useful
Wukong doesn't need the GOTY after breaking so many records and 95% good feedback from millions of players. The GOTY needs to be Wukong's to maintain its credibility.
This game is so hype people are gladly playing it 3+ times to get the wukong stance. Don’t remember a game that had people doing run after run after run
@@bangg_bhai420 it was driving me crazy honestly. I was gonna quit the game but then I found "It's Shatter" guides and he walked me through the levels making sure I don't miss anything. No map is insane imo
@@MrColbrot I've played all the souls games, but not lies of p not a fan of single players, i like to run through the game and then help my friends through them, but I also love monkey king based things so caved and got wukong and loved it.
It’s still so crazy to me how a lot of amour set abilities either don’t work or abilities are just straight up counterintuitive to the amor itself and people aren’t talking about it
The game is just to good😂. If you master the see through and perfect dodged you won't even need armor, but those buff the armors gives you are very good
Using the yaksha set with spell binder I managed to make a build that somehow infinitely stuns bosses for some reason. Legit just a shit ton of mana, great sage set, spell binder. Swap to ad much crit chance as you can get and damage and for some reason a large chunk of enemies and bosses get infinite stunned by mobility spin.
The original concept wukong armor becomes the best armor at NG+4 because it gives the highest defense and attack if you paired it with the dark staff. Also in Ng+4 and beyond bosses due more damage so the armor comes in clutch lol.
The Pilgrim damage is actually nasty. I like using the poison build with ring of fire + pluck of many + the synchronized relic bonus. With 4 focus points it deals a sht ton of dmg.
As someone who finished the game multiple times, Here is what i feel about cloud strike vs rock solid. cloud strike is great if you like hit and run play style, gap closer, big dmg setups, defense or offense flexibility. rock solid is great if you like parry, disrupting opponents plan completely, love to dominate bosses, it may not faster(sometimes) in killing bosses but it gives much better dopamine rushes in you. I am rock solid enjoyer for foreseeable future. Also unrelated to the above, pillar stance is great when fighting multiple enemies and in certain boss attacks it helps you keep the flow. The sweeping gale move has good tenacity built in to keep dmg happening and then we have churning gale which does excellent damage on all with decent range.
Makes me feel much better about choosing the golden embroidered set to shovel my resources into. I'm only in chapter 4 and I could not figure out what set I wanted to build first between Pilgrim and this one so I'm glad I made the right choice
Loved your Staff video. I've just finished Chp 4 and a few Legendary Armors have opened up. This is exactly the video I need at the time I need it!! Thank you so much for the video. I don't even have to watch it before I Liked it.
The bronze set 2 piece passive 100% works. It’s not a big buff in damage but when using just 2 pieces of this set whenever I want to use 2 other non bronze set armor pieces (usually the wukong headset and wrist armor for the +mana and + crit and the staff to hold onto 4th focus point plus get the 3 piece bonus) it definitely makes a bit of a difference when I use the bronze set from my other 2 pieces. Again, it’s not massively more damage but it’s definitely there
Its definitely the strongest build in the game imho, but i find it extremely boring to to use 5-6 buttons less in combat, so i swapped back to a regular spell build ^^
This was nearly my 100% setup for my NG+ run, the game was also too easy no matter what I used. NG++ started to require *some* thought, and I would always use the gold set when fighting Erlang though, because running around long enough was too tedious. Need to be able to use that fan for him specifically
@@KingBurgers Yeah I am also at NG++ and it gets a little harder. on NG+ I think I only died once during the whole playthrough, but I already died more than that on NG++
Grey tier sage set is the best armor in the game by a mile after the 18th relic. Combined with power staff that hits 3x harder than any weapon is almost a must passed NG+3
About the Bronze Battlerobe Set, 2pc bonus, other Chinese gamers have tested this and apparently adds fixed 30 Attk on immobilize shatter (just that 1 hit). Other bonuses and crit can probably be applied on top of this. Considering there’s not many ways u can add attk power, 30 is decent, and if u plan it to break immobilize with a high focus point heavy. The set bonus is not entirely worthless. Pls give this a retest to see if u get similar results
First off, great video! I instantly enjoyed it. I think you edited it and cut it perfectly. Very easy to follow, very fun to listen to, very clear (easily understandable. Just straight forward, easy nice layout and you laid down the information the way it should be done! I mean you should give some classes to these other fools out there. Now there's a lot of great talented people out there, don't get me wrong but some just, man they just blah blah blah blah blah blah, their flow hurts my head. I'm like what the f*** are you talking about but with you it's like man you're just hammering these facts just making these these obvious calls on certain armor and also showing how it makes sense. Really explaining your reasoning and thought pattern w very logical and years of experience. Forget it. I mean this blows all the other pain in my a** videos I had to watch about armor to pieces. This is the one to watch, it's the only 1 you need to watch. Thank you! And the number 2 of this is you definitely got my "like my subscription, my comment and my share". So well done brother keep it up and thank you! 500k in no time
The Yaksha pillar stance aoe attack heals based on damage, and hitting ebemies with the spikes also rewards focus. So in some circumstances it's a fully free attack.
Bro grey tier sage set is crazy when all relics are unlocked. With dark iron staff… it has higher defense than bullking, making your weapon hit hard.. that with spellbinder is my go to.
Serpent set might find some use in the final battle as it is done in water, but of course there are better sets to use not only in water...; Bronze set Ding break damage does work but it's PITIFUL, from what I tested I think it does maybe 20-30 extra damage which is basically worthless...;
BIG UPDATE ⚠: full wukong's armor and jingubang staff is now will PERMANENTLY unlock when you equip 5 pieces of his mythical set (you can get it in the first playthrough and no need to complete it 3 times with true ending, i just got it with my first chapter 6 playthrough and when i got jingubang the stance just unlocked and remain forever as long as 5 pieces are equipped) is this enough to upgrade the wukong set to S Tier Syrobe ?
@@cakehasa400 yes. i was suprised like you too, i am playing chapter 6 the first time and when i got jingubang it just unlock wukong stance and just remain there
Not sure if anyone’s mentioned that, but the Bull King set is craftable in NG, even if not fully- I just finished the secret area of chapter 5 on NG and crafted chest armor, arm and leg guards.
Thanks for the video. Just a thought; if you do another video of this kind would you mind saying what level you gained the armor? I noticed you did it with the weapon ranking video so I'm not sure why you didn't do it with this video... Either way thanks again for this video.
As a man of my word, I have found the video watched the video and sent the video to my friend. If he doesn’t watch the video. He will get the bonk stick.
For the Ochre battle robe set, I think the decoys left behind by perfect dodge and cloud step are considered to be a mirage..whereas with the pluck of many spell, they are actual clones of Wukong/the Destined one himself
There is a reason wukong was using rock solid against erlang in the first fight. I just think it needs more skill and is more rewarding when you actually pull it off.
Experimenting with armour and staffs I found that the Yaksha set, 4 defense curios, Dark Iron Staff, and SpellBinder is the most OP build in terms of damage
i have been using serpent battlerobe with verdant glow spirit, passive health regen and some times automatically recovers some amount of health at critical health. havent upgraded it to epic tier yet. but for the casual playstyle i am really having fun with this combo.
crashing enemy immobilization just means aiming for that little symbol and crashing that. it works great with the big headed bonk spirit cuz more cover area
Bronze battle robe works for bosses, idk what the increase is but once you crash the immobilization the damage numbers go up on JUST THE OPPONENT THAT WAS CRASHED
I use the bronze armor cause i mainly use immobilize. The perk does work. HOWEVER, it seems to trigger only when my final hit is with that big head dude special move thingy. Ill hit the ennemy then the very last move before my final light attack combo move, ill trigger the head butting. Itll chunk off a piece of health that is bigger then if i do it at the start. (After that headbut, if you light attack again it finishes the light attack combi with the overhead final hit. So while the ennemi is stunned during the shattering, you get a final strong combo hit in.) Its timing. Can be finicky. I still use it since none have what i use (i dont have all armors yet.) and upgrade mats are very few.
I could be wrong but I don't believe crashing immobilization is when you stagger them out of it crashing immobilization I believe refers to using a mobilization the moment they go to attack
Looks like based upon what you said cloud step is really good. I used rock solid throughout almost my entirety of my first playthrough It was perfect for basically using it as a type of parry Mechanic. So that iron tough armor set was definitely great for my playthrough.
FYI Bull King set can be got on 1st play through. Don't know how but I got it after beating the secret bosses in Chapter 5. Don't know if this was how but this was when I. saw it.
I don't get it, I can't activate wukong stance on my NG+, I have 5 pieces on, I finished true ending, I have 6 relics, I read on reddit that you need to unlock all 6 relics abilities, so you need to finish game at least 3 times to activate this stance for 60 seconds with heavy attack on 4 focus points, but here you say that you just need that set, well, it doesn't work for me, maybe they patched it.
After doing NG++ I am doing a fresh run and plan on sticking to Bronze Brocade and using evanescence as much as possible. It is high risk and fun. With that set landing evanescence means I get another immobilize immediately but I have yet to test it.
Hello @syrobe Just a thought! I think you can synchronize the Gold Suozi armor effect with ability of “Spell binder” to massively increase Crit chance. Spell binder “blocks” all spells, but it with the Gold Suozi armor effect the spells are seen as “used”. I am on new game plus and with Gold Suozi, Tri point double edge spear (weapon of choice for this play through), Weavers needle, Non-Able, 2 cat eye beads (still working getting better crit chance Curios) I was able to increase my crit chance from 26% to 48%. You have better items than me so I bet you can get a lot more crit chance and test it better than myself. If you would try it and let me know if this is viable. Thanks!
i would love to see how you would play a game like Tekken. I know you've mentioned you're not into fighting games, but the amount of studying you'd do really makes me curious as to what your play style would be.
This video only confirms my suspicions that many sets bonuses are either glitchy/not working properly or are just underwhelming (not to say useless ). The translations are also a very real problem: choosing my native language Brazilian/PT makes it so hard to fully understand that I often go back to English (and many times not even that transmit the message accurately). It seems only Chinese speakers are not having a problem with the translation 😅
After watching this video I am now crying because I 1. did not upgrade my armor in my playthrough 2. did not upgrade my flask 3. did not upgrade my drinks 4. used the yashakas rage armor set unknowingly for like half the game
My trick for the Yaksha set w/ Stormflash Loong staff: Qian Ting gourd w/ 3x laurel buds + boshan censer along with wind tamer, sun crow, and moon rabbit. All that stuff together offsets the 50% penalty to DR while still offering all the extra damage. It's micro-manage-y, but I've enjoyed it.
@@MegaOverclocked Oh, I totally agree, and someone really good (like an Ongbal) could use 3x tiger relics and different trinkets and hit even harder. But I'm just a mortal man, alas.
at 4:58 how do you have both golden loong and stornflash loong staff shows up together in your equipment?? I thought you can only build one and the other will be unusable when you choose the other.....
So I've maxed out the tier d and tier c shit first :D Now in NG++ and no celestial ribbon left. I'll get some from chapter 5 but wont have enough for the good stuff. Glad I had the brains for the pilgrim as well. Good video!
I am not gonna lie, I think you underestimated the common wukong set, because the defense is extremely high. Also while not doing the most damage with the dark iron staff, the armor set still does a lot of damage with the dark iron staff. Now I don’t think it’s the best amor set in the game, but I do think it’s pretty good.

I think the yin-yang kimono looks the coolest for pure fashion, bull king is the best armor set stats/build wise tho
Come on, Yaksha set is way cooler :D
Hope they add transmog system though

As someone who finished the game multiple times,
Here is what i feel about cloud strike vs rock solid.
cloud strike is great if you like hit and run play style, gap closer, big dmg setups, defense or offense flexibility.
rock solid is great if you like parry, disrupting opponents plan completely, love to dominate bosses, it may not faster(sometimes) in killing bosses but it gives much better dopamine rushes in you.
I am rock solid enjoyer for foreseeable future.
Also unrelated to the above, pillar stance is great when fighting multiple enemies and in certain boss attacks it helps you keep the flow. The sweeping gale move has good tenacity built in to keep dmg happening and then we have churning gale which does excellent damage on all with decent range.

Hey man that gold embroidered build was nuts. Thanks for the tip on it I swear by this build now
The bronze set 2 piece passive 100% works.

Also been looking forward to this list a lot, thanks for the rankings! Cool that you go into niches about stuff other that TH-camrs do not.
The secret wukong set has highest defense, legit can go 800+, pair with black iron and you get 240+ bonking stat
I actually use this set so that i can still perfect dodge thats why i prefer this than bull king set
Nah man the fuban armor giving you a focus point immediately is amazing. It lets you use basically any medicine because licorice ain’t easy to come by
For the gold embroidered set stun-lock you can also use falcon hermit spirit.
Now you can get bull kings armor in your first play through🎉

The Yaksha pillar stance aoe attack heals based on damage, and hitting ebemies with the spikes also rewards focus. So in some circumstances it's a fully free attack.
Pillar stance is garbage. Thrust is the way.
Very nicely done videos. Would love to see a tier list for the transformations and perhaps eventually the spirits too?
Crashing them in immobilize means when immobilize breaks they also fall over as if you stunned them
Bro grey tier sage set is crazy when all relics are unlocked. With dark iron staff… it has higher defense than bullking, making your weapon hit hard.. that with spellbinder is my go to.
Serpent set might find some use in the final battle as it is done in water, but of course there are better sets to use not only in water...; Bronze set Ding break damage does work but it's PITIFUL, from what I tested I think it does maybe 20-30 extra damage which is basically worthless...;

I could be wrong but I don't believe crashing immobilization is when you stagger them out of it crashing immobilization I believe refers to using a mobilization the moment they go to attack
Looks like based upon what you said cloud step is really good. I used rock solid throughout almost my entirety of my first playthrough It was perfect for basically using it as a type of parry Mechanic. So that iron tough armor set was definitely great for my playthrough.
FYI Bull King set can be got on 1st play through. Don't know how but I got it after beating the secret bosses in Chapter 5. Don't know if this was how but this was when I. saw it.
The staff list was helpful! Didn't event realize crit vs passive dynamics
Subscribed. You are a true professional gamer!
Been waiting for this list ❤
I don't get it, I can't activate wukong stance on my NG+, I have 5 pieces on, I finished true ending, I have 6 relics, I read on reddit that you need to unlock all 6 relics abilities, so you need to finish game at least 3 times to activate this stance for 60 seconds with heavy attack on 4 focus points, but here you say that you just need that set, well, it doesn't work for me, maybe they patched it.
Keep making these tier lists bro 🔥
wearing golden mask set with Erlang's weapon's special attack, guys you'll enjoy that!!!
After doing NG++ I am doing a fresh run and plan on sticking to Bronze Brocade and using evanescence as much as possible. It is high risk and fun. With that set landing evanescence means I get another immobilize immediately but I have yet to test it.
Almost done with first play through but I been waiting on this. 🙌🏾
Hello @syrobe
Just a thought!
I think you can synchronize the Gold Suozi armor effect with ability of “Spell binder” to massively increase Crit chance. Spell binder “blocks” all spells, but it with the Gold Suozi armor effect the spells are seen as “used”. I am on new game plus and with Gold Suozi, Tri point double edge spear (weapon of choice for this play through), Weavers needle, Non-Able, 2 cat eye beads (still working getting better crit chance Curios) I was able to increase my crit chance from 26% to 48%. You have better items than me so I bet you can get a lot more crit chance and test it better than myself.
If you would try it and let me know if this is viable. Thanks!
i would love to see how you would play a game like Tekken. I know you've mentioned you're not into fighting games, but the amount of studying you'd do really makes me curious as to what your play style would be.
having to go through all the armor sets again after the bull king mistranslation is crazyy😭 we dont deserve ur content
How you talk about Rock Solid is what separates Men from Boys!
This video only confirms my suspicions that many sets bonuses are either glitchy/not working properly or are just underwhelming (not to say useless ).
The translations are also a very real problem: choosing my native language Brazilian/PT makes it so hard to fully understand that I often go back to English (and many times not even that transmit the message accurately).
It seems only Chinese speakers are not having a problem with the translation 😅
After watching this video I am now crying because I
1. did not upgrade my armor in my playthrough
2. did not upgrade my flask
3. did not upgrade my drinks
4. used the yashakas rage armor set unknowingly for like half the game
rewatching this for the 6th time, infinite rewatchability right here
My trick for the Yaksha set w/ Stormflash Loong staff: Qian Ting gourd w/ 3x laurel buds + boshan censer along with wind tamer, sun crow, and moon rabbit. All that stuff together offsets the 50% penalty to DR while still offering all the extra damage. It's micro-manage-y, but I've enjoyed it.
But the damage penalty is what makes it a fun suit. A nice fire under the ass gets the blood pumping.
@@MegaOverclocked Oh, I totally agree, and someone really good (like an Ongbal) could use 3x tiger relics and different trinkets and hit even harder. But I'm just a mortal man, alas.
at 4:58 how do you have both golden loong and stornflash loong staff shows up together in your equipment??
I thought you can only build one and the other will be unusable when you choose the other.....
So I've maxed out the tier d and tier c shit first :D Now in NG++ and no celestial ribbon left. I'll get some from chapter 5 but wont have enough for the good stuff. Glad I had the brains for the pilgrim as well. Good video!
Please send this video to the devs so we can get some updates on the armors and real benefits to these
I am not gonna lie, I think you underestimated the common wukong set, because the defense is extremely high. Also while not doing the most damage with the dark iron staff, the armor set still does a lot of damage with the dark iron staff. Now I don’t think it’s the best amor set in the game, but I do think it’s pretty good.
Gold embroided set is my favorite set in terms of look so I am very happy about the placement
Thanks for that cool information on armours,it really helped
Anyone else struggling with game guides in Black Myth Wukong? Immersive Translate has made it much easier for me to follow.
Nice finnaly a good tier list XD
Totally agree with your tier list.
I beat the game with gold armor easy on my first! This set allow you to play with all spell and perform really well !
For the poison armor set just add the regeneration with the self inflicted poison and you won't be losing health
What regeneration
I crafted the bull kings mask set on my first play through 😂 good video game overall 👍🏾
Looking forward to the all one-shot video bro! :)
Clearly, you now need to do a tier list for standalone armors
