Black Myth Wukong: Guangzhi: Yaoguai Chief Location & Fight – Guide
The fantasy world in Black Myth: Wukong is filled with merciless and treacherous foes including more than 80 bosses that players will encounter throughout the journey. Most boss encounters are faced simply by pushing along the main path but there are several hidden bosses as well that can offer useful skills and abilities.
One such hidden boss that players can encounter early in the game is Guangzhi, the first Yaoguai Chief who offers the first Transformation ability. This guide will help you find Guangzhi and provide essential tips to defeat him in Black Myth: Wukong.
Guangzhi: Yaoguai Chief Location in Black Myth: Wukong
Guangzhi is the first Yaoguai Chief boss that players can encounter in the Forest of Wolves area. As players reach the ‘Outside the Forest’ Keeper’s Shrine, the game will primarily turn them into a bee to get past several foes including another side boss, Wandering Wight who offers the first Spirit Skill. However, players can return to this area whenever they want and find Guangzhi in a hidden spot.
From the Outside of the Forest Keeper’s Shrine, follow the steps below to reach Guangzhi.
- Head inside the forest and take the first path on the left beside a couple of foes.
- Continue following the path to come across a chest on the next fork.
- Go past the chest to the bridge ahead.
- Follow the path ahead to enter an open area with Guangzhi.
Upon finding Guangzhi, a brief cutscene will play and the fight will initiate.
Tips & Tricks for Guangzhi Fight – Black Myth: Wukong
Guangzhi uses a staff with a dual ignited blade at its ends which deals Fire Damage on each hit. Getting hit by the attacks of Guangzhi will build up the fire on the character which inflicts him with Burnt State and deal damage over time. However, you can remove the Burnt State instantly by using the Body Cooling Powder.
Moreover, follow the tips below to easily defeat Guangzhi.
- Avoid the initial combo of Guangzhi by dodging behind and then dodging in front to get behind him.
- Unleash your light attack combo on Guangzhi, and as he is about to do one of his attacks, use the Immobilize spell to stop him. Continue punishing Guangzhi and then back away once the spell is broken.
- If you see Guangzhi going in a charged stance, dodge on either the right or left side to avoid the incoming charged attack and then dodge again instantly to avoid a follow-up charged attack.
- After dodging the attack, you can punish the boss a bit.
- If you see Guangzhi spin backward, be ready to dodge as he will throw the staff in your direction.
- After dodging the attack, push on to the boss and punish him with your low attack combo. Moreover, use the Immobilize spell again if charged to deal extensive damage.
- In the late fight, Guangzhi will use the staff for a ground slam attack. Dodge the ground slams until he gets back on the ground to punish him.
Repeat the steps to deplete Guangzhi’s HP and defeat him.
