During the first chapter of Black Myth: Wukongthe bosses don’t mess around. Yes, you’re just starting out, but the people at Game Science still want the game to be a challenge. The Nobleman in White It’s a statement of intent in this regard, and if you’re having problems with it, you’re not the only one. However, with these tips, you can improve your strategy to destroy it.
How to beat the White Noble in Black Myth: Wukong
The first thing you should know about this nobleman is that It has two phases, and the second of these begins when you take all the life from the first one. Why am I telling you this? Because it is important that you save your best resources (potions, magic points, spirits) for the second phase of this battle.
In addition to that, as my colleague Alberto Lloria mentioned today, it turns out that if you beat him very, very quickly, you can unlock a third phase. It is not mandatory to win the fightand it has no extra rewards beyond experience, so we won’t be covering it in this guide. That said, let’s get to the moves:
Phase 1
- Skewered: When the noble jumps, he will try to stab you with his spear. It is an easy attack to dodge to the side because of its straightness. It punishes.
- Circular attack: The boss charges up his attack and hits everyone around him, also pushing out a circular area current. Both his punch and the water will hurt you, but if you dodge the initial hit and stay close, you can punish.
- Combo: three basic jump hits, punishes after the third, although keep in mind that there may be a fourth (very easy to dodge).
Phase 2
Once you take away all the life from phase 1, the second phase will begin:
- Basic Strike: A semicircular punch that hits towards your right side. Dodge and attack.
- Second skewered: without jumping, but swinging his spear around him before hitting you, this spear has less range than the previous one, but is faster. You can punish.
- Snake Combo: Two circular attacks, the first at short range, the second exactly the same as the circular attack from the first phase. Dodge them both and stay close to him to punish.
- Water lance: When you hit the water with his spear, he will throw a stream of water at you that you must dodge. If you are close, try to punish, if not, just dodge.
- Spear Throwers: The Nobleman throws his spear at you and then picks it up, dodge, but don’t try to attack if you’re too far away.
