Use the ogre spirit to create a field of enhanced attacks and then spam and use the furrys to spam with you. Then turn into the fire fox and go ham. Will cut you half the battle with many bosses. Only thing you have to watch out for is that the boss doesn’t hit you before you complete the animation. So I usually start off at the edge before the guy comes at me.
LMAO I've been holding on to the Incense Trail Talisman for an emergency the whole time because I thought it was a single-use item! I've spent so much time running back and forth the maps lol
@paolofabris7447 Yes, I went back to see why I thought this myself and it is the "1/1" inventory description that is why I at first thought it was a one time use... I did learn after this with soaks and stuff that 1/1 has nothing to do with how many uses, but further on in the game when I had already forgot I even had this.. And then I had to re-train myself to use this and still catch myself running back to a shrine every so often...
Another neat little trick is..if you need to pop pills in a pinch..do it from the menu screen instead of using the hotkey. This way you are not vulnerable to the enemy while distracted by the hotkey menu. I don’t even bother with hotkey for this anymore. A little bit for that is..you cannot pop pills from menu if you’re in the air or such
It's actually horrible how the quick menu is, sometimes you legit need 3+ seconds to drink anything because your character needs to be a complete statue or you're animation locked
@@germanrud9904 yea the game itself is the true final boss. I lost so many times just because my heals or a pill didn't come out after mashing the button repeatedly. Worst part is: when you try to select a spell/item, you can actually SEE that the game knows you're choosing something by highlighting you're selection on each button press, but it just ignores your input
@mugiwara7116 the games not ignoring your input the spells and shit just don't override anything and you have to be in position to use them, it's annoying sometimes but I've gotten used to it, games biggest flaw is it's camera
Don't avoid the plant enemy fights, when you beat them you get an extra amount of whatever plant they've imitating, sometimes a bonus type of plant of a similar variety, such as ginseng and aged ginseng, and millennium gensing. I beat one and got a soak once, the steel ginseng.
@@VegetaWithAdidas I know it's a random drop and I know where I got it from, I got in in ch. 1 from one of the little ginsenglings in the forest of wolves. I know about the cape and spirit of the old ginseng man, I have them.
0:52 there is an arm piece called Guanyin’s Prayer Beads that you can equip when absorb the wills to boost max HP and Mana bar for a very long time even if you immediately change to another arm piece.
I know you can on the default gourd because there is an achievement linked to it. You have to max it and talk to the guy with the giant gourd at every location he shows up at similar to the horse NPC. He then upgrades it one final time for 10 charges.
One thing I think really needs more exposure is just how thrust stance's heavy attack works; There's a perk which makes the heavy attack deploy instantly after a roll or perfect dodge at 4 focus, and while this move is phenomenal for striking at bosses who normally evade heavy attacks (one of them is even cheeky about it), it doesn't get the benefit of you being able to heal per focus consumed like normal charged attacks do with the health on focus consumption perk. When I'm in thrust stance and need that extra bit of healing, I prefer to do a jump heavy over a charged attack since it takes less time than a normal heavy charged and is a guaranteed heal, but does less damage than if you hit them with an instant heavy.
@@ryanbishop1522 its not skyfall, (smash stance) but thrust stance does indeed have its own seeThrough light + heavy +heal. (I cant remember the name.) Its a retreat and poke attack.
All figured out day 1 except for the meditation guide. Also if you jump hit an enemy with light attack you could follow up with heavy attack for the combo... Lower pagoda, where you first break out your cell, the rock wall could be climbed to get that green leaf🍃 there's also a fight for a chest waiting up there. I believe collecting all the leaves 🍃 leads to a trophy due to their not too obvious locations so always be sure to collect them."
There are more than enough luijoas in the game , and there are almost enough wine worms . The base gourd healing wise is the best if fully upgraded . You can take the most sips and have very high healing over 50% . No gourd can match that .
0:10 wow that "double jump" is a secret trick ! A lot of secret tricks and tips in this video ! Nice !!!!! I think these tricks are intended design by Game Science, nice job for finding them out ! There might be more tricks hidden in the game that has yet to be found !
This game is awesome, but I will never understand why game devs don't have some kind of built in way to tell players things like this exist. Its definitely fun to figure certain things out on your own, but I personally think basic mechanics like these should come in the form of a tutorial or training type mission. I think it's a strange decision to just have these things be a secret.
BTW you can use lambbrew with plaguebane gourd and the 25% healing over time is not halved. so you effectively negate the drawback of plaguebane, you just heal 10% instantly +25% over a few seconds, and you get a 20% boost to attack for 20 secs every time you sip. you can't upgrade the gourd though (but there is a more powerful upgraded version later on)
If you have trouble drinking medicines during a boss fight, you can cloud step and drink while the boss attacks your decoy. You can also heal aswell, very handy in a sticky situation 🙏
I'm pretty sure that for the immobilize buff you need to time it as if you're parrying the enemy when you freeze them to extend the duration and damage. Just doing it in the middle of their attack does nothing.
Great video. Paid you a token. Keep it up. Your voice and editing with the subtitles are very clear. Points made here are as simple to understand as possible. You deserve more success if you keep this up. Thank you again
I collect everything, didn't made any drinks and I'm at the end of chapter 4. Was looking for some tips to deal with this boss, but the tip is killing a other boss that gives me something, well I'm also stuck at that boss, so now I'm going to start making those drinks 🤣😂

Only thing you have to watch out for is that the boss doesn’t hit you before you complete the animation. So I usually start off at the edge before the guy comes at me.
A correction on evanescence from immobilize, is you can’t just use it as an enemy attacks, it has a very small window of activation, like a parry, but even shorter than perfect dodge. You’ll know you did it right when the immobilize icon above the enemy is black and not yellow
You can upgrade your gourd to at least 10, which is beyond max. Once you finished the upgrade from the monkey, you’ll have 9, and there is a way to get to 10, with the gourd guy you find in the environment. It’s in chapter 5.
Facts, the wind tamer saved my life in the Yellow Loong (hate that mf) boss fight. We were both on a sliver and I popped the tamer and was a able to hit him with the thrust attack to win after almost 2 hours
1 tips I might add is that the highest healing drink (60%) temporarily impair your movement, you can get away by dodging right after drinking utilizing I frame and dont get stomped by the bosses LOL The game is great, tho I hate the fact that they require SO MANY RNG items and missable questlines to 100 this game.
The best way to deal with shield enemies is the fully charged Smash stance which you can easily charge while springing around them. Not only it almost break the entire shield HP but also knocks the enemy down.
Another tip I find for boss fights is to pop cloud step, then a pluck of many, then a medicine and I still have time to unveiling strike. All while avoiding any boss damage and possibly using my gourd while invisible if needed
Great video - instant subscribe. Small nitpick - when you showcased evanescence you only showcased the standard immobilize. Doesn't really matter, but something I noticed! Thanks for all the hard work and looking forward to more vids!
they showed some combat variety in the trailers for black myth wukong but they removed it now on the actual release like throwing the staff could've been essential and the fast cooldown of abilities
Great boss fight advice I do the same, I wait til I learn the patterns and get their health down to atleast 25% then after that attempt with the medicines l
That mind core has a trick which makes drop almost spawn in every death. Just fight them both immobilize and BOMB THEM using that double head rat it kills them both at the same time. It got me mind core each and every time
@@soultekkamusic115 Yeah, it looks fun, but I'm not good at combat and I really don't like fighting the same boss over and over. I'll probably just watch a letsplay.
Been really enjoying the game and having challenging fun. Always look forward to your content my friend! Just wanted to ask where or how do you get that lightening effect on your staff? It looks so cool..👌🏾 I’ve literally just reached chapter 3 and looking forward to the journey ahead. 😉
Hey thanks! I appreciate your support 🤜🤛😄 Glad you're enjoying the game as well! The lightning on the staff is the ability for the Kang-Jin staff. It's a staff you can craft in the Willow Wood staff upgrade tree once you defeat the dragon boss at the start of Chapter 3.
It's very easy to get rid of large shield enemies. Just immobalize them then hit them from the back with Tier 3 charged attack or the baby thanos spirit skill to break the immobilize deleting 90% of their HP and knocking them to the ground for the finishing blows
Luckily there are 15 Louija vines. Enough for both gourds you can upgrade. And the only two drinks you can upgrade are the coconut wine and lamb brew anyway. So use them up on those since there is nothing else to use them on
Your default gourd is needed for a achievement. Level it up all the way by the time you hit chapter 5. An npc there will ask you to have a drink and will upgrade it
By the time I got to chapter 3 I was level 77. At that point bosses stopped being insanely hard and we're just moderately difficult. Use lvl 2 to farm xp points at the shrine just before rock vanguard
This is fantastic. Thank you for posting this. I had no idea about that village. I wish I had. The "farmer" is super helpful!!! I would have been running around grabbing mats had I not seen this. Sadly The blacksmith doesn't help so much end game as he can't upgrade weapons or the mythical armor but you can get his spirit. I would add that you can pop meds during cloud step. Go invisible, eat your meds and you are ready to go. (I'm guessing someone else has mentioned that)
Not me realizing I missed 80% of the damn game apparently. The Zodiac Village?? More than two curios and one measly flame vessel? Erlang is actually in the game????? Secret Loong boss?? Man 😂
Hi Arktix, I assume you play on ps5, I really want to get the game on console but the performence issues are keeping me away so far. How was/is the game for you? Are these problems deal breakers or is it not that bad? Also, do you play on performence mode or balanced (it doesn't look like quality mode in this video)? Great video as always! :)
Hey! Actually, I've been playing on PC, but I also have the PS5 version and have played a few hours that way. If you have a powerful PC, I would play it on there, but it's certainly playable on PS5 as well. Hopefully, they release a patch soon that optimizes performance a bit as you can get some frame drops/stutters, especially in later chapters, but I think it's fine on PS5 if that's how you can play. I hope you enjoy it if you pick it up!
I got my gourd to Mythic and the Wine to Mythic and still using them despite me getting all gourds and wines in the game. I'm at NG+ now so I'll be able to get the last node for the Wine. It's really nice and it has 3 soaks. Would use the one with 4 soak slots but the debuff is kinda bad on high stress battles. I use the soak that doesn't use up any gourd at a chance so I get more spammy heals lol. I do hope they add more wines in this game. The basic ones are nice if you just want raw healing. Sometimes I switch to the one that gives mana per heal and just throw in the mana and gourd use soak.
The regular gourd is the best one if you only use for healing. (After you upgrade it) spending resources on other gourds is not as helpful in most cases. Same goes for first regular drink but you can find more uses for some of the upgrades there that do not come with the regular drinks upgrades.
Im on my first run at chapter 5 and i managed to upgrade my default gourd to have 9 charges which is the max. so i guess you will be able to find enough vines
I'm not the biggest fan of Evanescence simply because the timing is absolutely the most unforgiving in the game at least from my experience, I can proc perfect dodge, See Through, Rock Solid all pretty easily, but I just can't get Evanescence quite right, and when you miss it, if you get hit while casting Immobilize, the spell will enter cooldown and the enemy won't be petrified. Also, to know if you procced Evanescence, the enemy will glow with a white/gray aura instead of the normal gold/yellow one, so don't get fooled.
Wait all along i thought there was no parrying so the rock form acts as a form of parry? No wonder its description said to time it right for full effectiveness. I've been trying to see if there's a way to parry but upon your explanation...holy 🤯
@@ArktixOfficial How the upgrading system with it’s prerequisites work. Best ones, the ones you like most, what their effects actually do. General info like that and whatever else you think would be interesting/useful.

0:52 there is an arm piece called Guanyin’s Prayer Beads that you can equip when absorb the wills to boost max HP and Mana bar for a very long time even if you immediately change to another arm piece.
you can also use a fully charged heavy attack way quicker by jumping. A jump heavy instantly activates and you close the distance too.
I can’t even play this rn i just want to show my appreciation for this channel
Hey thanks so much! I really appreciate that 🙏🏼😄
You're not missing out.
I have been using these tips for a couple of days, and appreciate the clear explanations. Thank you, as always, for providing an excellent tips video.
I know you can on the default gourd because there is an achievement linked to it. You have to max it and talk to the guy with the giant gourd at every location he shows up at similar to the horse NPC. He then upgrades it one final time for 10 charges.
Well steam has double achievements than PS ones
One thing I think really needs more exposure is just how thrust stance's heavy attack works; There's a perk which makes the heavy attack deploy instantly after a roll or perfect dodge at 4 focus, and while this move is phenomenal for striking at bosses who normally evade heavy attacks (one of them is even cheeky about it), it doesn't get the benefit of you being able to heal per focus consumed like normal charged attacks do with the health on focus consumption perk.

Yea I've also noticed you heal from activating pillar stance but retain the focus if knocked out of it, but not if knocked out of a thrust 🤷 weird
Use skyfall strike. 1 to 3 light then hit triangle. It's also a see through attack 👌 hope that helps

Don't sleep on the default gourd.
It is one of the better gourd in the end game. Plus, you need to fully upgrade it to unlock an achievement.
Imo it's the best. If you upgrade it with correct add-ons you can get over 60% of healing per drink and even regenerate your mana
@noxineamv2158 yeah I used it along with the yade drink it's a mana treat end game you never get out of mana

Yup that's right. Unfortunately, I realized after uploading that I used the wrong clip there.

Luckily there are 15 Louija vines. Enough for both gourds you can upgrade. And the only two drinks you can upgrade are the coconut wine and lamb brew anyway. So use them up on those since there is nothing else to use them on
Your default gourd is needed for a achievement. Level it up all the way by the time you hit chapter 5. An npc there will ask you to have a drink and will upgrade it
By the time I got to chapter 3 I was level 77. At that point bosses stopped being insanely hard and we're just moderately difficult. Use lvl 2 to farm xp points at the shrine just before rock vanguard
This is fantastic. Thank you for posting this. I had no idea about that village. I wish I had. The "farmer" is super helpful!!! I would have been running around grabbing mats had I not seen this. Sadly The blacksmith doesn't help so much end game as he can't upgrade weapons or the mythical armor but you can get his spirit.
I would add that you can pop meds during cloud step. Go invisible, eat your meds and you are ready to go. (I'm guessing someone else has mentioned that)
There is enough Luojia Fragrant Vines in base game to fully upgrade Medicine Sage Gourd
Not me realizing I missed 80% of the damn game apparently. The Zodiac Village?? More than two curios and one measly flame vessel? Erlang is actually in the game????? Secret Loong boss?? Man 😂
Im about to finish my second playthrough and havent once seen through an enemy
10:15 coconut wine is for me the best... First play through 9 potions with 3 slots at maximum with
12 worms
I will definitely have to test that double jump
Totally! Yeah I couldn't figure out how to get up to those perched enemies for a long time.
Hi Arktix, I assume you play on ps5, I really want to get the game on console but the performence issues are keeping me away so far.
How was/is the game for you? Are these problems deal breakers or is it not that bad? Also, do you play on performence mode or balanced (it doesn't look like quality mode in this video)?
Great video as always! :)
I play performance mode, and no issues at all.
@@davidyang5131 I've heard there is button delay on dodge and heal, also pretty heavy framuga drops especially in chapter 3
@@grig0s620 no delays for me, but I did notice a little frame dropping Chapter 3. Nothing big enough to stop me from playing, this game is 10/10
Hey! Actually, I've been playing on PC, but I also have the PS5 version and have played a few hours that way. If you have a powerful PC, I would play it on there, but it's certainly playable on PS5 as well. Hopefully, they release a patch soon that optimizes performance a bit as you can get some frame drops/stutters, especially in later chapters, but I think it's fine on PS5 if that's how you can play. I hope you enjoy it if you pick it up!
Super helpful thank you!!!!
Excellent guide
Brother great tips, like no bulshit great stuff!
Battle plan? Nah, I'm just bashing my head against a brick wall until I finally crush it
I got my gourd to Mythic and the Wine to Mythic and still using them despite me getting all gourds and wines in the game. I'm at NG+ now so I'll be able to get the last node for the Wine. It's really nice and it has 3 soaks. Would use the one with 4 soak slots but the debuff is kinda bad on high stress battles. I use the soak that doesn't use up any gourd at a chance so I get more spammy heals lol. I do hope they add more wines in this game. The basic ones are nice if you just want raw healing. Sometimes I switch to the one that gives mana per heal and just throw in the mana and gourd use soak.
The regular gourd is the best one if you only use for healing. (After you upgrade it) spending resources on other gourds is not as helpful in most cases. Same goes for first regular drink but you can find more uses for some of the upgrades there that do not come with the regular drinks upgrades.
Love the part with the guys pretending to be plants 😄
Thank you,this one is Dope.
Thanks, Davor! Glad you liked it 😁
@@ArktixOfficial Always Brother,
I like every single one of your 296 videos 😁😁😁
Haha I appreciate you brother 🤜🤛😁
Im on my first run at chapter 5 and i managed to upgrade my default gourd to have 9 charges which is the max.
so i guess you will be able to find enough vines
You get to upgrade it one last time in chapter 5 to a supreme gourd with 10 charges.
I'm not the biggest fan of Evanescence simply because the timing is absolutely the most unforgiving in the game at least from my experience,
I can proc perfect dodge, See Through, Rock Solid all pretty easily, but I just can't get Evanescence quite right, and when you miss it, if you get hit while casting Immobilize, the spell will enter cooldown and the enemy won't be petrified.
Also, to know if you procced Evanescence, the enemy will glow with a white/gray aura instead of the normal gold/yellow one, so don't get fooled.
Wait all along i thought there was no parrying so the rock form acts as a form of parry?
No wonder its description said to time it right for full effectiveness. I've been trying to see if there's a way to parry but upon your explanation...holy 🤯
Yup! It's basically a parry when you time it just right.
You are the goat thanks for this man you are the best 🔥🐐
Hey thanks! I hope you find the tips helpful 😄
thanks for sharing !😃
Great video, perhaps one that goes over weapons and armor?
Thanks! What exactly would you like to see about armor and weapons? The best ones?
@@ArktixOfficial How the upgrading system with it’s prerequisites work. Best ones, the ones you like most, what their effects actually do. General info like that and whatever else you think would be interesting/useful.
Gotcha. Thanks for the suggestions!
Thank you for this valuable guide 🙏. I'm a bad gamer, so this will help a lot. 🥰
Thx Man
YOU CAN UPGRADE YOUR GOURD?!?!?!? IM FUCKING RETARDED. IM LITERALLY HAKF WAY DONE WITH CHAPTER 3 AND JUST FOUND THIS OUT.
Very informative. Cheers.
Thanks! Glad you found it helpful 😄
I didn’t find the zodiac village until I beat the game lol hopefully I’ll have it at the start of new game +
Took about 20 sparks off of the survival tree. Didnt realise how minor benefit it offers.
