Guangzhi location in Black Myth Wukong

Guangzhi is found in the Forest of Wolves, an area not part of the primary questline. Before encountering Guangzhi, players need to overcome the Bullguard enemy and proceed to the Outside of the Forest Shrine. The path leading to Guangzhi's arena is clearly visible once reaching this point. Navigating this environment is crucial for those aiming to challenge Guangzhi and reap the rewards from defeating him.

How to Prepare for the Guangzhi Boss Fight in Black Myth Wukong

Facing Guangzhi early in the game means limited combat items are available. Most of Guangzhi’s attacks involve fire damage, so enhancing fire resistance is crucial.

Recommended Preparations:

• Body-Cooling Powder: Obtain this from a nearby shrine to boost fire resistance.
• Skill Investment: Focus on skills that enhance stamina to improve dodging ability.

Stamina Skills:

These skills allow for effective stamina management during the fight, ensuring you can evade more of Guangzhi's attacks with greater efficiency. Balancing these preparations will significantly improve your chances against this fiery opponent.

How to Defeat Guangzhi in Black Myth Wukong

Navigating the compact arena where you face Guangzhi is challenging due to limited space. This necessitates precise movements to avoid being trapped in a corner.

Guangzhi employs a variety of both close-range and long-range attacks, with a preference for closing the gap to unleash his powerful strikes. His primary weapon is a flaming spear, making it essential to boost fire resistance before engaging him.

At the start of the battle, Guangzhi charges with a jumping spin attack, followed swiftly by a similar move. Quick dodging is essential. After these initial attacks, he shifts to using various combos. Attacking him during these combos is risky and generally ineffective, so it’s better to wait until he completes a combo before striking back. Quick attacks are favored over heavy ones due to their speed, as Guangzhi's agility makes slow attacks less effective.

In the first phase, focus on dodging his combos and retaliating immediately after he finishes them. Once his health is reduced to half, Guangzhi introduces aerial attacks that are particularly damaging. To counter these, retreat whenever he takes to the air to minimize the damage.

Here is a summarized strategy:

Preparation:

• Enhance fire resistance.

During Battle:

1. Initial Charge:
   • Dodge the initial jumping spin attack and the subsequent similar attack.
2. Combo Awareness:
   • Avoid attacking during his combos.
   • Wait for the combo to end and then use quick strikes.
3. First Phase Combos:
   • Continue dodging his combos and strike back quickly.
4. Second Phase Aerial Attacks:
   • When he starts his aerial moves after losing half health, back away to avoid these high-damage attacks.

Maintaining distance, timing your dodges, and delivering precise attacks are key tactics to defeat Guangzhi in Black Myth Wukong.
