Moon's scales Black MythWukong - legendary item from the category "important items", which unlocks secret dragon bosses. You will be able to take possession of this thing only during the age of Chapter 2: you will first have to defeat several powerful enemies, and also find the cache by using a special spirit skill.
This guide will tell you how to use Moonscales in Black Myth: Wukong and show you where to look for this key item.
Where to find Moonscales in Black Myth: Wukong
Incense Altar: Sand Gate Village -> Valley of Despair.
The path should start from the altar in the Valley of Despair, which opens during the age 2 story chapters “Yellow Sand, Quiet Twilight”. You will gain access to the movement point immediately after defeating the elite Yaoguai tandem: King and Second Prince of Quicksand.
Explore the Valley of Despair Cave
From the indicated altar, turn towards the nearest cave and step into its dark age. As soon as you find yourself on the threshold, you will see a small opening in the distance, in the direction of which you should continue descending.
Soon you will find a couple of ordinary enemies, and you will also notice a burning torch, which is the first bright landmark. Once you reach it, turn left and head to the next light.
Between the large stalagmite and the torch there is a ramp leading to a small area with a table. Go around the nearest group of cave growths, focusing on the next source of fire.
If you took the right route, then enter the illuminated sandy arena, where you will have to defeat the elite Yaoguai First Prince of Quicksand. Here is a cache leading to a chest with Moon Scales. You can open it both during the boss fight and after it.
Method 1: Make the First Prince hit the wall
If the battle with the Yaoguai takes place near a wall with bas-reliefs, there is a chance that the monster will hit it with its paw - this action will open the way to a secret room with a key item.
You can get into the cache only after defeating the boss.
Method 2: use the active spirit skill
You can break a wall in another way: stand opposite the wall, approximately in the center. Then equip the Wandering Wight as active spirit and take advantage of its power (default key "F").
Method 3: use the Azure Dust spell
If for some reason the Wandering Wight as an active spirit is not in the collection, complete the Stone Man side quest to find the stone guai in the cave and receive the Azure Dust spell. Then use it next to the wall: during the casting process it should also collapse.
If you did everything correctly, you will be able to enter the created gap. Thus, you will find yourself in a secret cave with the desired chest.
Proceed to the illuminated part of the secret room and open the treasury. After this, the moon scales will appear in the inventory in the tab "important items".
What are Moon Scales for?
Luna scales exist in a single copy and, by their purpose, are an improvised key that opens ages to special elite opponents - the hidden kings of the Yaoguai. Using this item you can unlock access to the following bosses:
- Red moon (Claw Moon Grove in the Wolf Forest).
- Black Moon (Cave of the Hidden Moon on the Rock of Fear).
- Blue Moon (Turtle Island on Bitter Lake).
As we progress through the game, we will supplement the article with the remaining opponents, who can only be reached with Moon Scales.
Defeating all the secret dragons will allow you to unlock new equipment and obtain rare materials used in the creation of new and improved equipment and weapons.
age to the Red Moon in the Wolf Forest
Incense Altar: Wolf Forest -> Forest (outside).
From the altar you need to run forward to the crossroads, where a small enemy detachment is hiding. At this point, turn left, right in front of a huge boulder.
Behind the massive stone there is a path to the right - go past the fallen tree. Next, follow the forest path towards the fallen stone building.
In the indicated direction, find a vertical pillar and an open chest - between them there is a age from where you can go down. Thus, you will find yourself at a small edge, where you need to turn left again.
If you followed the right route, then find a hidden mountain road: climb onto the ledge and go straight. Soon you will come to a shallow lake and notice a large waterfall that you should approach.
An active point will be placed in front of the wall, which will allow you to use an important item and open a secret age. After this, all you have to do is squeeze into the crevice between the dark rocks, then go out into the Grove of Moon Claws. To get the reward, you just have to defeat the hidden boss Red moon.
age to the Black Moon on the Rock of Fear
Incense Altar: Fear Rock -> Stone Plain.
Use the indicated fast travel point, thus you will find yourself close to the rise to the nearest mountain. Start climbing the stone steps - there are no forks on this route, just follow the stairs strictly.
Soon you will come to a small deserted area with man-made monuments, as well as another abandoned staircase. Continue on the path, which at first glance ends in a dead end.
At the end of the climb, you will encounter an obstacle in the form of a sand curtain - if you use Moon Scales in front of it, the anomaly will disappear. Now you can go to the Hidden Moon Cave and fight the secret boss By the black moon.
age to the Blue Moon on Turtle Island
Incense Altar: Bitter Lake -> Turtle Island.
The route to Blue Moon is very short. It is enough to turn away from the altar after moving to a large dry tree and run to the edge of the mountain. At the end of the path you will find a frozen dragon statue right on the edge of the cliff - come closer to the monument and it will come to life.
