How to get to Sage Yellow Wind
This boss lives in a closed area within the Yellow Wind Ridge and before getting to him, you need to defeat two powerful opponents:
- Tiger Guardian (Temple of the Crouching Tiger - Temple Entrance).
- Stone Guardian (Fear Rock - Stone Plain).
This way you can collect Tiger sensitivity and stone hardness, in order to use them to unblock the road to the Sage of the Yellow Wind.
Incense Altar: Temple of the Crouching Tiger -> Entrance to the temple.
Having obtained the mentioned items, return to the arena where you previously fought the Tiger Guardian. Go straight ahead and you will see the outline of a huge monument.
Go through the flooded area to the headless statue, then use the sculpture. The action activates the appearance of a large open mouth right in the middle of the bloody arena. As soon as all the liquid has drained down, you can jump into the open mouth. Next, make your way through the dark catacombs: the path is linear and will ultimately lead to the altar "Cellar".
After interacting with the travel point, you will be able to teleport directly to the arena with the Yellow Wind Sage. To start the boss fight, go outside, go down the sand slide and turn left.
How to defeat Sage Yellow Wind in Black Myth: Wukong
This Yaoguai king has a large amount of health and strong fighting skills. The battle takes place in two phases, each of which will be a real test for the unprepared Chosen One. In the following paragraphs, we discussed in detail how to kill the Yellow Wind Sage, taking into all the available possibilities.
Boss attacks
If you familiarize yourself with the combat abilities of the Yellow Wind Sage in advance, you will be able to avoid unpleasant surprises and significantly reduce the number of missed blows:
- Staff Combo Strikes: Four quick weapon attacks - strikes both horizontally and vertically, and the final thrust can cause a wave of sharp spears. To avoid damage, read the trajectory of the lunge and move away from the monster or towards it in time.
- Wind of Blades: at a long distance, the boss sends several shock waves towards the victim - they move very quickly and can be located in different planes. At a medium or long distance it’s easy to escape, but up close you’ll have to quickly read the animation to figure out the right moment to dodge.
- Stomp: If the opponent raises his leg, this will be followed by a ground slam. The direction of the enemy's limbs can be deceptive, so try not to get into the affected area and wait out the attack from a distance.
- A gust of wind: Using swings of his staff, the boss creates one large sand storm around himself. You need to get out of the area affected by the ability as soon as possible and wait for the storm to end.
- Double jump: The monster leaps towards the target with lightning speed, and then dashes back through the air, after which it makes a powerful weapon attack. Quick reactions will help you avoid serious damage - recognize the series of jumps and dodge.
- Sharp attacks: if the enemy, being a sand ghost, rushes along the ground towards his victim, it means that he will soon rush towards her again, but in a different direction (criss-cross). This skill works over a considerable distance, so be prepared to constantly tumble. Only in this way will it be possible to successfully avoid all attacks.
After the boss's HP drops below 60%, from time to time he will begin to use a powerful blow, as part of which he summons a giant beetle.
A couple of seconds after the creature crushes the carcass of the Chosen One: here it is important to use the roll at the right time to avoid significant damage. Then, another one, as the beetle's attack is combined with the Stomp from the Priest, aimed at the area where the hero is.
Battle tactics
The Yaoguai King is unforgiving in battle, so it may take a few tries to learn all of the boss' animations. Next we list recommendations that will help defeat the Sage of the Yellow Wind:
- If, before meeting the enemy in question, Fuban, who lives in the Kingdom of Sakhali location, is defeated, you will take possession of the item "Pill of Winds", the activation of which will destroy the sand wall along the edges of the arena - during the battle you will have time to use this legendary artifact from 1 to 3 times, depending on how quickly the battle goes.
- As for the conditions for using the artifact, it is recommended to activate the “Pill of Winds” at the moment when part of the arena with the boss is immersed in a sand curtain. This will allow you to destroy the erected “barriers” and actively move, regardless of the selected distances.
- Sage Yellow Wind has good mobility; it is preferable to use fast and accurate attacks against him, as well as use spirit
- Easiest way to defeat the boss near - thus, it is much easier to dodge pinpoint attacks aimed at one point, as well as run behind your back with a series of quick attack techniques.
- The fallen carcass deals huge damage and is combined with the “Stomp” from the boss: it is advisable to dodge these attacks in two stages.
- Sand whirlwinds throw up character into the air: always keep them in sight, otherwise you will lose valuable time and become vulnerable to attacks.
- Activate "Immobilization", if the enemy is nearby, this will cause maximum damage to a defenseless target.
- Spell "Mighty Doubles" will help to quickly reduce the boss's HP, so use the summon of clones at any opportune moment.
Several deaths in this battle are the norm, but to increase the chances of success, first complete all optional bosses and upgrade the available skills.
