The Most BROKEN Build in Black Myth: Wukong

[@zakktheripper]

*Erlang fight at 13:53 if you want to see how insane this build is*. edit : Holy Christ, I literally said at 3:05 in the video that I modded the inventory so I can do EXTENSIVE test on builds so YOU don’t waste your medicines. And I still get comments “wHy Is YoUr iNvEnToRy aT 9*9*9” .

Thank you, I was on new game 4+ and Erlang was giving me the business. With this build I got him in first couple of trys. New subscriber.

[@xavierperea7438]

Literally my first run through I struggled on this boss. Ik you are in multiple new game plus. But I laughed so hard on how you owned that boss and beat it so quickly. Made me laugh away the pain and anger I felt through this boss on my first play. I’m for sure going to subscribe now!

I don’t usually comment, but after struggling for DAYS, I just beat both Erland AND The Great Sage (within one sitting) on my second try after using this build. Thank you for this brother 🙏🏾

I love hearing that bro. Thank you for the kind words! You're more than welcome and I hope to bring alot more content about alot of different games this year

Hey Zak, thanks for your tips i found wukong pretty hard but now watching your tutorial you make it look easy as well as having the proper armour set. I've liked and subscribed, can't wait for the next vid. Cheers mate!

[@zakktheripper]

@@farkyeah7599 dude thank you! That means more than you know

[@t3knyn]

This build can work against any boss in the game. Really good build, against Erlang just rinse and repeat but have patience. There are times tho wen he doesn't freeze nor gets immobilized but just some patience and it's ez

[@zakktheripper]

@@t3knyn 100% well said

[@stephensearles673]

It's harder to freeze or imbolize him when his shield is up

[@t3knyn]

@@stephensearles673 it is harder but not impossible

[@TOTKBOTW]

I used this set for wukong broken sage and Erlang up until NG7. Wukong is bit harder than Erlang in NG7. I had to take 2 remigration pills and 1 LAAP on top of other pills to beat broken shell sage.

[@zakktheripper]

@@TOTKBOTW scaling should stop at NG+6 but yeah. They get quite insane around then. By that point you need to do this strategy and at least dodge efficiently. I’m glad this build worked though. It’s cracked. GGs though. I’m glad you kicked their butts 💪🏻

[@TOTKBOTW]

@ Yeah his Movesets changed and sometimes he would nullify your spell like the fan. He immobilizes azure dome or any transformations that you use. True that your dodging skill should be improved by NG6 or at least you have already familiarized with his attacks.

[@Albinali_a]

@@TOTKBOTW I agree with you , the sage is insane above NG6 , one mistake could kill you directly,,,the see through strategy maybe could help, but it’s fuckin stronger than Erlang

[@TOTKBOTW]

Yeah even I beat NG7 already, when I went back to fight him again, I struggled as much as the first time. It’s unreal even stone monkey moves ramped up so much. Just get killed getting close to him while his head is buried down n generating waves.

thanks a lot for this video… i was stuck at NG++ wookong broken sage… this helped to finish up. note: dont use pluck of many.. use the life saving strand instead..for the entire fight. 1st phase… stay far and just charge heavy and keep hitting him. 2nd phase.. use the above video stratagy mentioned in video.. on a safer note use soal remigration pill spell so you get 2 chances to respawn if you die incase

this video is absolutely AMAZING the BEST i found online. The only question i have is do stances or talents matter? because i dont see them covered in the video. Appart from that tyvm for this im sure once i get the bat my gameplay is gonna be amazing i only just got to chapter 3

[@zakktheripper]

I’d highly recommend you put as many sparks as you can into your mana, attack and balance out your foundation. Stances do not matter as much. You’re going to want to max out your mobile spin as much as possible for the really quick critical hits. That will help you restore Qi back quickly

[@zeflute4586]

small suggestion Zakk, u might wanna show the meters in lower right corner so its even more straight forward (maybe put it in the middle of the left side?) people say from ng+3 to ng+5 (6th cycle, highest stats for the enemies), the only way to go is total dmg reduction builds, I disagree. For instance, the build in this video can definitely work. yeah u might get killed sometimes when things go wrong but its still very good. I got through my ng+4 with a spellbinder poison build, with a little dmg reduction twist in the drinks. Man I had some exiting fights with that build.

[@zeflute4586]

10:33 also that was hilarious 🤣

Currently on new plus 5 and it's tough but your build really helps a lot, the plantain fan doesn't work great againt the white noble boss from chapter 1 he literally flies all over the place like a paper bag, it's really hard to keep up with him and land hits funny to watch though 😂

[@zakktheripper]

@@stephensearles673 yeah that boss in particular is a pain. He’s got way too much speed. I feel like they created him early on and was like “yeah, this is good”, then used those same mechanics on other bosses and said “wait these enemies are moving too fast, we need to tone it down or they’ll be unhittable” 😂

[@stephensearles673]

You are correct, the Four Banes resistance curio. The weird part is, is that I tested this build using that exact thing and I would get the same success rate with freezing the bosses with the Bat. It was weird. I thought it would be guaranteed each time but wasn't. Could be a bug.

@zakktheripper bosses like stone vanguard are invincible to ice until you use the legendary curio. So yeah that's a good counter for them
