Easy Dodge & Parry Guide in Black Myth Wukong (SPOILER WARNING)

[@WheeledHamster]

The fourth attack has two specific moments to chain a Heavy or Roll Cancel. First is when he twirl the staff behind his back and the second is near the end where the staff is closest to the screen.

[@kimshiwasabi]

Yes, I forgot to mention that! Thank you!

[@OrangeZeus]

Thanks mate. Super helpful. Im 40 and never ever played souls like game before. I perform panic rolls like a headless chicken all the time when boss starts doing combos. This tutorial is absolutely game changer to me. Still need to pratice but I at least get some ideas from your guidance. Appreciate it.

[@kimshiwasabi]

Happy to hear that! Yeah just take your time and play/practice and you will dodge bosses like a pro sooner or later, I forgot to mention in the video: don’t forget to predict the boss’s moves.

The same here! I’m in the last Boss and so hard! To win, I really need to learn the rigth rhythm 😢

[@HannahPen-e2n]

..excellent video! the best advice I would reiterate is 1:18 ..timing is what makes a perfect dodge and that varies depending to the enemy's moveset

[@kimshiwasabi]

Thank you!

[@davidtsmith33]

Thank you. I been getting a hard time throughout this game effectively pulling off a counter/parry. I wasn't aware you have to let the light attack animation finish first before pressing heavy to trigger. I was generally pressing heavy in the middle or toward the end of the light attack. I'll try to practice with this in mind now.

[@kimshiwasabi]

Happy to hear that this guide helped! Yeah, this game becomes much easier once you know your own movement.😄

even if someone spams light attack or does panic roles its not gonna work they have to learn timings and learn dodge and counter skills otherwise they cant progress in the game. so this video is really nice to tell them, BOY, YOU GATTA DO WHAT YOU GATTA DO!. XD

[@MinhHa-p7d]

Thanks!

[@kohpai]

This is what I learned very early in the game when I started fighting Wandering Wight. Don't get up. If you're knocked down by an attack, stay down. You can perform dodges just fine from that position, no need to get up. The chances are you will mess up your timing when you try to get up by dodging. It's most likely that you click dodge to get up just at the beginning of another attack. Then the attack will land and you can't dodge it in time.

[@kimshiwasabi]

True! I also noticed that, but it is hard to know and you always get ín panic mode when you get knock down 😆

[@thedevranaofficial]

This is slightly off-topic, but I think Game Science might have used the phrase "See Through" as a kind of loose translation for the terms "counter" or "parry" from Chinese. It’s possible that a direct translation wasn’t feasible, so they opted for this phrase instead.

[@kimshiwasabi]

Yeah, I’ve heard about that too. I kind of understand why they translate it that way. It’s like you see through the enemy’s next move. Just something I came up with

[@HwL01]

Yes it is a wrong and direct translate by word from the word 看穿… many other such weird vocabs are in this game as well.

[@liuzhen2008]

In Chinese there are specific words for counter or parry, but they chose a new phrase instead. So obviously in English it’s also a new word (see through). I don’t think it’s mistranslation. I think game science was trying to come up with a new concept. I personally have not seen this kind of parry/counter attack, where it only works as a follow up of an attack.

[@kimshiwasabi]

@@liuzhen2008 I see, just a new word with new mech basically. I have not seen this type of parry or counter before too. Pretty cool concept

[@KrazeDiamond]

See-Through is (破绽 'Po-zhan); means you catch your opponent's opening in a brief moment. Counter & parry have very different words in Chinese.

[@Chachi2uSIR]

[@FuriousInferno]

now almo make a guide on how to not get frustrated if your dodges and counters not work or your timings are incorrect XD, cause lot of people are gonna face it when they try to learn in.

[@kimshiwasabi]

Yeah you should! It is so easy to get frustrated. I always get frustrated when I don't dodge correctly some time.

[@xli4n609]

I spent at least 3 hours fighting yellow loong just watching his attack patterns. It took so long bc he has such a THICK health bar and overbuffed dmg. After recognizing all his moves, I started bullying him(and ofc beating him)

[@JobyStaneslavose]

What is that machine gun effect in thrust stance at @8:13 ?

[@kimshiwasabi]

Tri-Point Double-Edged Spear, you can obtain from secret ending. I have a guide on how to use it in my weapons video!

[@deepeshgawali1886]

I think Frame generation also makes the timing of pressing dodge weird.

[@kimshiwasabi]

Interesting, I have not heard about that before. I will look into it!

[@CarolinaNomad]

This isn't critism more of a clarification. The phrase spamming the light attack suggests that I should repeatedly smash the x button 10,000 times, dodge, 10,000 more times, dodge, etc (Spamming light attacks does describe my play style, but then I lose to bosses due to it). I would rephrase it to controlled light attacks, ie 2 light attacks, dodge, 2 light attacks, dodge, dodge, dodge, 4 light attacks, dodge, focus point obtained, then, up the pattern to include, dodge, 1 light attack, 1 heavy attack, dodge, and back to 2 light attacks, dodge. so forth. Basically, they have a pattern, slash pattern, smash pattern etc, our pattern needs to match their patterns. Now, how do I figure out the pattern and remember it and not get smashed around like a paper doll while trying to figure it out? lol

[@kimshiwasabi]

Yeah, I could not find a better word than "Control light attack". I agree that it is a better phrase. And yeah about the pattern, It takes practice but you'll get the hang of it!

[@LaneBatman-c2v]

Would be cool to have a mod that helps you learn when to dodge or just have more pronounced visual or audio cues.. not someone saying “dodge” every time but it would be funny

[@kimshiwasabi]

Yeah that would definitely help and improve your skill, or attack indicator

[@emel0759]

Black myth wukong is way way less punishing for panick rolling

[@kimshiwasabi]

Yes indeed, I noticed that too on the last boss

[@Lotus-by1lg]

I think there isn't any TRUE benefits to "see through" an attack, aside from, nullifying damage, buffs you get from Curios and one staff i forgot the name (looking cool as hell too) I don't really know if it's that worth it but, saved me a lotta times

[@kimshiwasabi]

Yeah, true! You mean Spikeshaft staff that pair good with See Through mech right? I agree, it looks really cool but sadly only legendary and not a mythical weapon. I wish they have made an mythical weapon just focus on parry.

[@davidtsmith33]

@@kimshiwasabi Agreed. Pity Spikeshaft can't upgrade to Mythical. When you already have a Mythical weapon equipped or in the kitty with more ATK power it's hard to consider swapping that out for a lower rarity, lower ATK power weapon.

[@kimshiwasabi]

@@davidtsmith33 yeah I think the same, maybe there are some mod to do upgrade Spikeshaft staff to mythical just for fun haha!

[@kujop1]

I got news for everybody if the only way to beat a boss is by memorizing the attack patterns the boss is broken. That’s not how any game on earth works. They do it on some video games to create a false sense of difficulty. This game contradicts itself. It teaches you to wait and watch attacks, then launches attacks to fast to be seen. Which you get caught by cause the last 3 attacks were ridiculously and unreasonably delayed. it intentionally sets you up to fail to the point where it’s humanly impossible to react organically. so every fight boils down to doing it so many times you know what’s coming. That is not a game. People are scared to admit how hard it is so everyone praises is it as a good game. It’s not. This goes beyond twitch reflexes. Typically games give you indications of what’s coming and you have a window to to react accordingly. the smaller the window the more difficult. This game often gives you 0 window to react you’re just supposed to take the hit and remember for next time. That is not a game. This game often blinds you or sets up attacks off camera intentionally and you’re just supposed to feel it coming. Some of the delayed attacks go beyond reason. No person is going to expect the amount of delay of some of these attacks, it breaks up the flow of the fight and they stop being fun and become tedious. Game is beautiful visually but the game play is trolly and sadistic. They tried to be darks souls but they didn’t understand the fairness that dark souls imparts in its gameplay. DS is hard but always fair. I never felt like I was being trolled in DS only pushed to be disciplined. This game goes far passed that. I did beat black myth by the way and All the secrets bosses, aside one that got canceled out cause of gameplay order(dumb) and er lang or whatever tf his name is I’m still working on that nonsense. The boss fights are doo doo. Not fun. The story, visuals and the moment to moment gameplay is worth the trip but just know the bosses are going to make you miserable.

Got half way thru chapter 3. I'm done. Deleted the game and am walking away. This game isn't even fun anymore. It explains nothing and when it tries, makes no sense. The translation is shit. Also makes ZERO sense to NOT have a block/parry function. It's the most primal instinct in nature! Yet, not in this game. No difficulty setting either. Sorry, not everyone is a "Souls" master. My life doesn't revolve around video games, and it certainly shouldn't require 5 fucking hours to try to figure out a boss battle. Got far better things to do with my time and far better games to invest my money in. Last game I ever buy from this shit bag company.

[@kimshiwasabi]

NG10 Smash stance is trash now.... high damage but can't one shot kill and low counter guard ez to dead with boss small attack if who play NG9-10 i recommend Trust stance parry can attack when boss jumping
