Subscribe for way more Black Myth Wukong videos: bit.ly/1S7oa8K I know there is more going on with the transformation & focus, but from my experience so far it's still smarter to use the focus & then build up things during the transformation then to use it for the transformation. Also every transformation is ofc different.
This. I hope we get a big DLC, and I CAN'T wait to see what they can do with an even bigger budget next time! And I hope this opens the door and we get a TON of badass Chinese and Japanese single player games(before they end up getting greedy and ending up like the rest of the worlds gaming nowadays 😩).
Foreal I was thinking the same thing. “Black myth:(insert any dope god here) and as long as they don’t fuck up they could ride the wave for a looooooong time
I’m loving this game. I haven’t been this hooked on a game in years. My only issue with it is the fact that there is no map or compass at least. It becomes so overwhelming when your roaming and there are so many paths to take and no map to be able to know if you’re going in the right direction or making a complete circle lol
Dude thank you so much for these vids I’m new to RPG’s never played Elden ring or souls any of them but wanted wukong cause I’m a fan of the story and lore. But I’m lost in all the info and abilities and what to upgrade but watching your vids are helping thank you!
4:12 Spending your focus points BEFORE a transformation is sometimes not the best play, some transformations (for example Ebon Flow) use the focus points you have to charge up your R2+Square/RT+X attacks, which is useful in some situations
This game punishes and abuses me. I'm a decent gamer and have done as far as playing areas around 80 times just to get a few sparks to upgrade and still not strong enough to beat the next boss if only by accident! What am I missing!??
Mobile spin followed by Charged/Heavy Attack kinda makes sense, we've always seen WuKong in live action/cartoon show spin it all the time, so in a way its like an homage to the character and for nostalgia (whether if they did that intentionally I do not know). "in some cases the Mobile Spin does not cancel Immobile Spell" That's because, as we all know, Mobile Spin does very little damage. But clearly it has good payoff. 5:18 Good to know you can replenish some HP by releasing a charged Heavy attack even if you aren't attacking anything, then again, it only works if you charge up the Focus....
Yeah, I just got to chapter 3, and I’m super interested in spec-ing heavily into that Spellbinder… Considering it’s permanent, til you respawn, you increase the damage it does by increasing your max mana, and you no longer have to worry about your mana use from casting… It looks good to me! With the right weapon, armor, and talisman it should be good!
I tend to put all mana items/spirits on at the shrine for max mana, cast spellbinder then switch the items back to combat based stuff. You keep the initial damage from when you casted at max mana
the potion that give you more max mana is really good on spell bind ability .. just pop the potion then the ability and get even more extra damage from conversion :)
Easy way to regen Hp without Gourds -Go to the *Staff Stances* Page -Upgrade *Exhiliration* to 3 -The upgrade *Sweeping Gale* for the *Pillar Stance* upgrade tree says in the description *Consume a focus point* to execute a sweeping attack"....but the thing is you can execute this WITHOUT A FOCUS POINT but if you have *Exhiliration* the game reads that move as using a focus point so it will Regen HP. THe other staff trees DONT ALLOW THIS! I dont know if its a bug now but I noticed it recently. You can't regen HP without a focus point on the other staff trees. One thing though.....You *CAN* use *Sweeping Gale* without a focus point and get HP.....you CAN NOT Regen HP with *Churning Gale* if you have that upgrade UNLESS YOU DO have a focus point. THis means you need at least 2 focus points for *CHURNING GALE* to regen HP *you don't even need to attack an enemy for this to work. Just light attack the air then sweeping gale*
to the focus spending before going into transformation a lot of the transformations take your pre transform focus and use that as fuel for their abilities so for some you want max focus before transforming not spending it before transforming
It is useful to farm up focus points then transform when using ashen slumber so you have full bar of fire, how I bet that mad yellow dragon guy it’s very useful if you’re stuck on him, staggers a lot.
4:40 It may have been patched out.(?) But in my game you get the same health from charged attacks but it gives you the moment you start charging and not after you release it. Edit: When you have that weapon it will grant your health without it no.
4:32 i feel like you shouldnt spend focus with ebon flow transformation or rather the blacksmith. If i go in with 4 bars instead of 3. I can instantly turn into his enhancend mode. Staggers the bosses so easily. I was one of the secret bosses in chapter 4. Not optimized build but pluck of many timed with the chapter 2 vessel and then i switched into that mode off of 4 focus bars and took out the other 1/3 of health
It’s the beauty of it, this game is my favorite new game this year not to mention the first game of this studio, you can see they have potential to make bangers that clap cheeks!
It's not that fun getting my a$$ beat 39 times by a boss when I do everything right because dodging perfectly sometimes doesn't even work. Sometimes I even stay back to play the same area 80 times to gain sparks to slightly upgrade, but not enough to feel ready for the next boss! What am I missing here because I'm simply giving up before I break my controller 🤦
I think it's just your execution that's lacking. Things are consistent. But would recommend farming the "see no evil" headband in chapter 3 to make perfect dodges easier
@@fangiscool1 yeah, I have a love hate for this game. Haven't quit yet. Thanks for the tip. I'm having a tough time trying to spend my limited sparks on the right things
TRHIS GAME IS SO GOOD ELDEN RIGN OIF COURSE IS MASSIVE OPEN WORLD BUT THIS SCRATCHES THE ITCVH WE ALL HAVE FOR THESE TYPE OF GAMES WITH ARMOR CRAFTING ZELDA ESQUE
When it says "healing on consuming a focus point" is there a way to just consume it?? Like without attacking and you just burn them, or does it only happen when you use the attack?
This game is so fucking awesome, that when i started i started it with keyboard and mouse - NOPE. Does not fit me. Then i took my dualshock 4 - NOPE. I hate consoles and controllers and Dualshock 4 is the worst too small for my hands. NOW i ordered xBox one Electric Volt color = Yes now it's best what i can do - LET'S FUCKING GOOOO. Anyone playing this with mouse and keyboard? Thats not how it meant to be played. I hate consolles i hate controllers. Now i love them. On PC only. My mouse and target lock - NOPE. Not for mouse. Monkey says no to keyboard and mouse = Monkey says YES for xBox X/S controller - can i say no to Monkey? NO.
If you're talking about the one at the very beginning you can craft the full set once you reach chapter 4. Theres a new material you have to get but you'll find enough of it in no time. It's called "Golden" something. Full 4 piece set
Started the game again with the add on and wow , no wonder most folk with early access are so far ahead , trying doing the whole thing with a normal gourd and no armour or fancy staff ! No wonder I hate it , absolutely no guidance through the game just have to work out what Ur doing urself , I forgot what the story was about
As a casual gamer.....and an old guy to boot....Its too damn hard for me and fairly boring fighting some of the bosses 45 times. Losing interest in a hurry....
Bro I’m done with this game. So many bosses haven’t dropped what they should which then doesn’t allow me to face the higher level bosses with the needed items. Not to mention the insane amount of bugs I’m getting. Pissed off is an understatement as I’ve been following this game from day one. Refund pls….😡🤣
It needs a different difficulty setting! How is my teenage son going to be interested in this , I hate dying in games I hate having to respawn and do things over and over again it's how to create nightmares
I played the Darksouls games & I legitimately stopped playing because it was too hard and grindy. Black Myth has its moments, but it’s more forgiving & easier to play than Darksouls which in-turn made the game more fun for me.

This game has so much to offer. Every time I think it's just a linear pathway game I am surprised with something I missed. Ha
I have a feeling that this game will be the beginning of an amazing series
Hopefully. I feel like I got my $60 worth that’s forsure
This. I hope we get a big DLC, and I CAN'T wait to see what they can do with an even bigger budget next time!
And I hope this opens the door and we get a TON of badass Chinese and Japanese single player games(before they end up getting greedy and ending up like the rest of the worlds gaming nowadays 😩).

No map makes it funner
I just started Chapter 3 and made a left and seen a glooming alumnus light and got baited into battle, wasn’t prepared 🤦🏿😂
ANOTHER ONE !!!
Dude thank you so much for these vids I’m new to RPG’s never played Elden ring or souls any of them but wanted wukong cause I’m a fan of the story and lore. But I’m lost in all the info and abilities and what to upgrade but watching your vids are helping thank you!
Dude you should absolutely try elden ring especially of you are really enjoying black myth !
I hope Black Myth gets game of the year
Yes bro same from my side
I think the only competition it will have may possibly be that new warhammer game
If they remove the FSR from the ps5 version, I’ll maybe consider it as a possibility, as for now, the latency from the FSR is atrocious.
@@defjam66x Nope. It will be FF7 Rebirth.
@ronthorn3 UE5 will not run on consoles without heavy Fsr unfortunately

@@claykeough7898what chapter are you in?
@@joshwilliams9922 nothing matters besides sparks and beating bosses for upgrades. All the other crap is useless.
@@claykeough7898 I’m trying to see if I can help you, what chapter are you in currently and what’s been the hardest bosses for you?
You can also deflect wind and some other areial attacks with the spin deflect/attack

You need A LOT of mana to cast it. 450 mana
@@GamerGuyOG oh yeah, I assumed that would be the case… It can’t be cheap, lol! If it packs a punch tho, it’s worth it.
@@GamerGuyOGyou don't, it costs your entire mana bar no matter how much you have, if you had 50 mana it would cost 50 mana
Game becomes easy, was getting my ass beat by yellowbrow until I switched and everything had been good until I encountered yellow loong 😢
I tend to put all mana items/spirits on at the shrine for max mana, cast spellbinder then switch the items back to combat based stuff. You keep the initial damage from when you casted at max mana
You don’t always want to spend your focus before a transformation, there are few that get buffs and bonuses when you go into it consuming your focus
We need to test this! Thanks for noting. So far save to spend it, I still think the damage is better than these buffs
@@JorRaptor If you transform into Yin Tiger then your sword is charged based on how many fucus points you had before transformation
@@JorRaptorit’s not ever transformation but there are few that either get buffs or convert your saved focus into the transformation ability bar.
I never use them up, i let my transformation use my combopoints and do insane amounts of dmg in this state.
@@krokiecikxd Still I would argue the heavy attack from wukong is better than the attack from the tiger
I bought this game 5 days ago have yet to play It… 😅
You make good videos. I like how thoughtful your explanation are.
4:22 actually if you have full focus ahead of time you can immediately activate your transformations special move once you transform.
Thanks for clarifying about the shrines
the potion that give you more max mana is really good on spell bind ability .. just pop the potion then the ability and get even more extra damage from conversion :)

2:23 Although mobile spin gives focus, damage wise thrust stance’s Whirling thrust has more dps. It gives stacking crit chance the longer you do it.
4:40 It may have been patched out.(?) But in my game you get the same health from charged attacks but it gives you the moment you start charging and not after you release it.
Edit: When you have that weapon it will grant your health without it no.
This was very informative. Cheers.
You should hire me as your second gamer where we don’t miss anything! Much love keep putting in work!
every secret area/map has a different sets of stocks that you can buy in shrine (if you want additional crafting materials)
What i actually fpund is that if your resistance is 100 you are almost completely immune to status effect

If you take multiple defensive potions of the same kind will they multiply your stat say 8x2 =16 or will it still stay 8 @JorRaptor?
It will stay the same, just resets potion timer

The game ain’t that great… it’s okay/playable at best
yes more fideos pls
Everytime u said left, u went right
Games like this are why I don't trust reviewers. It's GOTY in my opinion.
How do u get that move next to transformation? Bottom icon??
Where’s the knockback ability at the start of the video? Have no idea what it is
how does his weapon have a lightning trail?
That side quest won't activate the boss once I get to the melon field.
Be nice if I could get past the opening fight without the game fuxking crashing
Where do I get the lightning staff at 3:48 ? Can't find a single video or mention about it anywhere
It’s called Loongwreathe, kill two dragons, black and red. ch 1 and 2 secrets
Kang-jin staff.
I got the duplicate spell in the and chapter!
What armor set is that and how do you get it?
