Black Myth: Wukong is a tough Action RPG, but there is a variety of tools at your disposal which can make your adventure slightly easier, such as Spirits. There are lots of spirits throughout the game, so you may be wondering which ones are the best to choose. On this page, we’ll provide you with the necessary information to make it easier to choose.

Top 5 Spirits in Black Myth: Wukong

As mentioned above there’s a lot of spirits in the game (55 to be exact), but we believe the following to the best:

Wandering Wight

Rarity Skill Equip Bonus
Epic Faithful Kowtow: Take the form of "Wandering Wight" iconWandering Wight. Bow utmost devotion and ram the foe with your bronze skull, dealing massive damage. Significantly Increases Defense.

The Wandering Wight is a spirit we’ve used for the majority of the game and it can be obtained by defeating the boss near the Outside the Forest shrine in the Forest of Wolves area. This Spirit is a good option for those who aren’t as confident at the game, as it increases your defense so you can take more hits and the spirit deals tons of damage and stuns the opponent which is incredibly useful against quick moving bosses.

Tiger’s Acolyte

(1 of 2) Equip the Tiger’s Acolyte Spirit

The Tiger’s Acolyte can be obtained by defeating the boss on a long bridge near the Windrest Hamlet shrine in the Yellow Wind Formation area. This Spirit is a good candidate for aggressive players, as it increases your critical damage which means you can take down enemies quicker and the quickness of the spirit itself means you’ll deal lots of damage in a short amount of time.

Guangmou

"Guangmou" iconGuangmou can be obtained by defeating the boss near the Snake Trail Shrine in the Bamboo Grove area. This Spirit will poison the opponent and damage them over time, so this is a good option for battles against major bosses as they have a lot of HP. Additionally, it gives you moderate Poison Resistance which will be incredibly useful in the Webbed Hollow as a lot of the enemies have poison based attacks.

Earth Wolf

"Earth Wolf" iconEarth Wolf can be obtained by defeating the boss near the Village Entrance shrine in the Sandgate Village area. You’ll find it in an open area in the middle of the nearby village.
