Chinese style armor is really underrated. The heavy cavalry armor used in the rise of the Mongols was also gradually improved by the Chinese since the Tang Dynasty, and the technology was inherited by the Song, Liao, Jin, and Mongol dynasties.
The armor with poison resist and attack buff when poisoned really carried me through the whole end game...that extra damage is great considering how manageable the self inflicted poison is
@@michaelg5793 other comment said it, not sure I remember seeing something for the cold one but I believe there are ways to self inflict banes also through spirit skills , maybe that works, but still haven't seen something for mud which was in one armor set so I m not sure ngl
Also there is an alternative gauntlets but you can get from the cocoon Boss and spiders Hollow if you break for his arms before he runs away basically just unveil strike him from behind four times. It gives you the same poison bane on heavy attacks but that the staff gives you and it’s still considered part of the Centipede set. So you can use the alternative stuff for increase health regain on charged attack on a poison enemy
You get a total of 4 bull horns per playthrough. Personal set up for late game. Chest and helm from the bull armor, then greaves, wrists, and the staff from Wukong's armor set. You don't get the spell cooldown set bonus, but coupling together a high defense and like 25% crit chance is pretty good.
I love games like this. I put tons of hours into GOW 2018 and I can see myself doing that for Black Myth Wukong. Playing new game plus over and over to fully upgrade my favorite armors.
I’m on chapter 4, currently running the Bronze monkey set and maxed out my immobilize and pluck of many, it works well when your clones can crash the immobilization. Only downside is that you need to basically max out your mana but I have the gourd that replenishes mana to help compensate
Firstly you are definitely the best UA-camr for wukong related stuff and a massive thanks for the video. I’m in chapter 5 and looking to see what armour to use
@@Wonsync honestly it’s really hard to say because I’ve loved all of them so far. I’m leaning towards chapter 2 as the bosses and story was extremely enjoyable.
Golden Loong staff is the way if you use the Yaksha set. Stack those bonuses, they're crazy good together. Just as crazy as the damage you take though...
@@antimatics759 Just have a lot of health and also spend spirit to increase defense in transformation tree, not foundation tree. Also, using a golden button curio with this armor set does crazy damage. The description to use the pole stance is a trap though. The idea with this set is to NOT tank hits, but rather dish them out with either smash or thrust stance. Pole stance heavy if you're feeling funky.
@@antimatics759pole stance+Yaksha+ Golden Loong work best together, but if you don’t want the negative effect of Yaksha, I find the sprint set is a good alternative. Upgrade it to mythic, combine with the golden button curio as the guy above said. Then sprint and charge 3 focus at the beginning of the boss fight. You’re gonna bonk the boss haha.
You should make a vid on the best XP farm. THE BEST ONE so far is Ch.4 Area at the Pool of Shattered Jade Incense. Use transformation Hoarfrost LVL 3 ICE SHEET in the middle of the cocoons and repeat. 2000+ XP every 30 secs or LESS. Great for will too 👍
Just came across your comment and I’m finally on ch4 after 30 hours of scraping every corner. I’ll definitely keep an eye out for this area so thank you 👍
@@tor3699 Update: Use the Ashen Slumber transformation and De-Transform in the middle of all the cocoons. It will reach all of them. Reallocate your skill points temporarily into that transformation to make sure it one shots or use a better staff because it scales off of that too
you can get 4 bull king iron horns per playthrough at least i got 4 in my first playthrough. Also Jingubang isn't the highest attack stat staff in the game as there is one with 140, it unlocked in ng+ but you need 9 loong pearls to make it and it adds thunder dmg to your heavy attacks
Pigrims garb with smash stance is the way to go. Build up the focus while running to stack the damage then go in on enemies with heavy charged smash. The damage in one smack is crazy.
Games are simple if its fun start to finish and sustains it even for it being long. And gives you the itch to just play it again over and over. Thats a 10 no matter what criteria you may find it lacking.
The staff combos should be different for each stance just my opinion but kinda get tired doing the same looking combo with a different heavy finisher consider how the enemies have the craziest combos and moves I’ve ever seen
@@smokey5225the Earlang’s weapon gives you different light attacks combo and parry (see through). You can also combined 3 stance, utilizing 1-2-3 focus point to parry. Check out Ongbal’s videos. I could never do that tho 😂😂it’s so smooth when you can master it
Beautiful armor. Thank you Game Science for putting cool stuff in the game for the community to find. Other devs take note. Successful game, happy community, no cash shop. Try it maybe.
Thought bull king would be higher on the list. You can pretty much forget about your dodges with this armor, spell binder, tri point spear and a flask that heals you over time. Not even dodging, just doing thrust poke and healing now and then. Suppose this build would drastically fall off going further into ng +2, 3, 4, etc. but on a ng+ it's super op
Jesus, all the armor set look soooo sick! Meanwhile u look at armor or costumes in games like Concord. Yea yea I know the differences in genre, but what is fact is the BM:W devs knows what gamers want.
Thanks a lot for this video, although it took away a bit of the mystery and expectations of personally discovering all the armours myself, it sure saved me a lot of stress and research about the details of each since there is very little information on the internet atm since most content creators are basically still trying to beat the game themselves, let alone finding out all these intricacies! I will surely use the next 6 golden threads that I find (already 5 atm after making the dmg boost on summon armour) to upgrade the "Running" set to Legendary and then to Mythical once I get to chapter 5 (currently halfway done with 4) and then just use the final free amour for the rest of the game/NG+, simple and perfect solution if you ask me! ;)
with what attack do you take advantage of the sprinting dmg buff tho, it seems a normal heavy doenst benefit from it since u are not spriting, only move i found that would be worth is the jumping heavy which is lower dmg that a normal one tho
@worgmaniashenanigans2702 it does benefit from it. The buff lasts for like 2s after you stop sprinting, so you have to time it. It can miss some time, but if you know what you're doing, you can crit boss for 6k+ damage before NG+.
For those that don’t know, there’s a chest on the left of the path just before the boss arena area that has a 4th iron bull horn. So you can get 4 iron bull horns per playthrough.
The secret armor set obtained in chapter 6 in a chest is the best for dps and damage. When you reach ng+++ you are a fortress. Put it with the iron staff which buff attacks paired with defense, and you are a god basically. You should try it and see it for yourself.
A warning about the Bull King armor, if you decide to play NG++. While you won't stagger anymore, you also won't have knockdown Iframes, meaning enemies with continues attacks will delete you .I.E the Carts in chapter 5 and The Duskveil second phase will one shot you whenever it uses it's wave of swords move.
Hey, out of curiosity why don't you play with damage numbers enabled? It might help us visually see damage you're doing. Anyways, I love your content...you're always my go-to for games we both play
Something to note about the bull king set while it is impossible to get till ng+ you also unlock a staff that goes great with it which gives you bonus attack depending on your defense making it the highest damageing staff in the game with out having to do any extea setup
Centipede is the best all around armor imo. It's 50 attack damage while you are poisoned. 50 attack is the difference between a blue staff and a mythical staff
I seriously can't wait to see people cosplay this gear and some of the bosses. Apparently, there are already Chinese women cosplaying some of the women bosses.

That was very entertaining and so useful now I know what is the best armor in the game and staff to go with it. I just started and I just beat the Black Wind King. I got along way to go before I be anywhere near your level in terms of gameplay.
damn so the pilgrim set made it to second place considering you get this so early is amazing, gaining focus points is insane im going with that one for sure 🎉
Evanescence on the armour stacks with the skill. Im still on chapter 2 and have been using the bull guard set. It can pretty much melt a 3rd of a health bar on the first cast, also activating the crash. I haven’t tried it with the amplify and tiger subduing pots (now I can actually make them, so I have a tonne) but combined they wipe out the rock enemies before you end your combo. The porcupine guys (who also drop mind cores? Still nfi what they are? but I’ve got like 30 of them) also drop at the end of a light combo. 25% crit chance with the damage I suspect will bully any boss, especially on the recast with the both the immobilise extension skills.
If you want to use the alternative centipede staff there is a hidden Alternative gauntlet you can get when you first encounter the six armed secret cocoon boss breaking four out of the six arms before beating him into running away in the first encounter will give it to you and it has the poison bane effect of the staff and it still counts toward the centipede set bonus, that way you can have the poison effect on heavy attacks and the enhanced healing from the staff
Dude thanks for the videos, they very very helps us. I follow your videos since i started the play BMW, but i need to warn you nowadays your content being similar to each other. I suggest you to make much more "HOW TO" kind of stuff. For example i assume you completed the game at least 2 times, and you know on witch boss what kind of a set a player can have, so you can make guidence video like "What you need to beat X BOSS?". Accept that as a feedback
correction: the jingubang staff isn't the highest damaging weapon in the game, the spear from chapter 3's EX boss has the same attack rating and there are stronger weapons unlocked in new game plus.
You should mention a spellbinder build where you mix the loong staff with galeguard 2 piece and pilgrim 2 piece. Highly mobile build that does utter obliteration in pillar stance and smash stance
The alt wukong armor you get in a chest in 6 iss stronger and better. It's defense is highest in the game and tou can perfect dodge. It gets stronger with each relic you get maxing after all 18 relic slots are filled. Gives highest defense and highest damage for defense scaling staff
@@Bliss_715 i have centipede armor with spider staff and gourd with deathstinger, bee mountain stone, gall gem and purple veined peach pit i dunno what to put to curious and i cant poison the boss idk why
Well, I am on 4º chap, upgrade to legend the initial armor. Its nice, and the best one is just the final one so.... we need a video for the hard crafting materials, where to farm if its posible and does things xD. Thanks 4 the work done dude and for give it to us.(Couse u cant see all full upgrades armor in the game unless u upgadre it )
The stuff you said it's not the only stuff I have the highest attack in the game if you go for the hidden secret boss ending you will get his mythical lightning spear which have the same critical and the same attack as that stuff and also have a crazy mythical affect so yeah the boss is the craziest and the hardest boss in the game with the beautiful ending you ever see so if you don't do that oh my God you miss a lot
Your sleeping in the ebongold armor cloud step super combo. 3-4 focus heavy smash plus bonus damage from cloud step and armor. Huge single hit damage with gourd and maxed cloud step with armor
Bull king armor isnt the highest defense armor set, its the common version of wukongs armor that you get from a secret chest in chapter 6, the more relics you get the higher the defense it gets, and it keeps going up every relic you get in ng+ too. My build is using that armor with the dark iron staff which increases damage based on how much defense you have, and spell binder on top if that which helps get your crit chance to 25% so that 1/4 of all your attacks are crits, then i use 3 gold spikeplate curios to further increase defense, then i use 2 thunderbolt seals to increase mana, im only in ng+ 3 so the defense i can get isnt even at max, this build has helped me best erlang in ng+ first try. Let me know what you think or if there is anything else i should do to make the build better
the only thing stopping me from upgrading bull king armour is the 4 set bonus. perfect dodges is one of the things that makes this game feel so great and reqarding. no way they taking taht way for ANY kind of "buff"
Idk if you take requests, but is it possible if you can do a poison build guide eventually? I know its not the strongest build but it looks really fun and i really want to go with a poison build for my first playthrough.
For the bull king armor I got 4 horns from the secret area 3 for beating the boss in there and one from the bull enemy glowing blue that you can get as a spirit
Man they really gave pillar stance all the good shit and thrust (my fav) just gets 2 spears…which are fucking amazing but I’d like an armor set that’s specifically for thrust, the closest one that I feel is ebongold because of the cloud step perk from the boots, and the centipede set kinda but you get more crit with some staffs :/
The only few problems I have with this game is first off the pillar(especially) and thrust stance are far worse than the smash stance for bosses and thus I’m 15 hours in with not a single point in the either 2 stances because if your much better off fully investing in smash stance as it’s the best for bosses, I’d love to use pillar stance for mobbing and stuff but I’m not gonna waste points for it. So I feel as though I’m missing a lot of the combat experience not getting to use the other stances and have to just use the same old moveset, they should’ve just had a single tree for all 3 stances and the upgrades applied to all 3. Also the fact there is no map is annoying or even at least a compass. Other than that though i cant say much bad about it and im having a blast!
@@hoboknife7747 I know. I also don’t want to have to respec for boss fight, then resec for mobs, then ope there’s actually a mini boss there as soon as I just finished respeccing thinking I was gonna be fighting mobs so now going back to respec BACK for boss Cuzz there’s a mini, and oh he was supper easy clapped him in 10 seconds now I’m respeccing again to fight mobs again… no thank you
I'm currently on vacation but i purchase the deluxe pre-order curious about ur thoughts on the deluxe armor? Btw i love the design on both numba 10 armor and last centipede armor. Since i personally, love tanky-ness 🛡 i do see myself using numba 4 alot and love the design that reflects the rock 🪨 solid 👌 ability.
It’s not great….you get extra will (money) per kill…..at the beginning area it’s good to farm with. However it doesn’t scale. At lvl 50 I put it on and was still only getting like 15-20 more will. For context I have 100,000 will so it absolutely nothing. There is no mythical upgrade bonus
The enemies have so many things they can do but we are stuck with a handful of powers if we could do have the stuff the enemies could do it would make the game so much better....
im pretty confident you can get 7 bull-king horns per playthrough. Im on my first playthrough rn and I believe i got 7 (i will check once I get home and update)
I’ve gotten four Kings iron horns on my first play through… I can basically craft every piece except for the helmet.. 😢 don’t ask me how I got four because I couldn’t tell you…😅
Hey there👋🏽 I think the Celestial spider staff is worded wrong cus it states when in poison state hits inflicts the enemy poison bane but watching ur vid u consumed all 4 focus points to cause the enemy poison that’s pretty strange imo
Yes it’s only 4 focus points that inflict it. 3 and bellow as well as light attacks won’t. Which is strange because the magma staff does it well with no other prerequisite and at 3 focus points. Should be buffed in my opinion
@@KhrazegamingI think it's just that 4 focus inflicts way more poison bane at once so you get the status instantly. 3 or lower deals less bane per hit, light attacks do less bane per hit. I got it to proc poison without 4 focus just fine. Staff spin is a fun way to build up.
It's bad that the materials are limited. If I knew that I would never have crafted all the armors. Really bad design, I don't want to go all the way back to restart the game to get the mats I want.
I thought I was cooking with the baizhe armor then I read more closely. That stuff won’t activate 95 percent of my time 😂 I beat baizhe without it, any frog enemies where this could apply, beaten. There’s a loong and a hippo “boss” in chapter 6 but I did not wear it then either and I beat them within 5 attempts each

If you want to use the alternative centipede staff there is a hidden Alternative gauntlet you can get when you first encounter the six armed secret cocoon boss breaking four out of the six arms before beating him into running away in the first encounter will give it to you and it has the poison bane effect of the staff and it still counts toward the centipede set bonus, that way you can have the poison effect on heavy attacks and the enhanced healing from the staff
Dude thanks for the videos, they very very helps us. I follow your videos since i started the play BMW, but i need to warn you nowadays your content being similar to each other. I suggest you to make much more "HOW TO" kind of stuff. For example i assume you completed the game at least 2 times, and you know on witch boss what kind of a set a player can have, so you can make guidence video like "What you need to beat X BOSS?". Accept that as a feedback
correction: the jingubang staff isn't the highest damaging weapon in the game, the spear from chapter 3's EX boss has the same attack rating and there are stronger weapons unlocked in new game plus.
You should mention a spellbinder build where you mix the loong staff with galeguard 2 piece and pilgrim 2 piece. Highly mobile build that does utter obliteration in pillar stance and smash stance
The alt wukong armor you get in a chest in 6 iss stronger and better. It's defense is highest in the game and tou can perfect dodge. It gets stronger with each relic you get maxing after all 18 relic slots are filled. Gives highest defense and highest damage for defense scaling staff
The bonus armor with the Dian-Cui Loong armor looks perfect for an old character I had when I played Tenchu Z.
Love the content Khraze!! ❤
It would be awesome if we had a transmog. If they dont add it as feature in future updates, im pretty sure someone will make it by a mod.
How do you have so many fine gold threads to upgrade these pieces. Is there a farming location for these?
you can buy them from certain shrines in chapter 5 and 6 from the stores , and in chapter 5 i found them in the chests as well
Currenty rocking the poison craft with the mythical staff. Such a fun build
@@Bliss_715 i have centipede armor with spider staff and gourd with deathstinger, bee mountain stone, gall gem and purple veined peach pit i dunno what to put to curious and i cant poison the boss idk why
@@ninoherga8270 same here. I’m not sure why poison doesn’t work. It seems bugged
The golden set is so underrated. It should be in top 5.
Your consistency is insane 🎉🎉
been watching you since the anthem days i hope you see this dog great work with the channel 🎉
Well, I am on 4º chap, upgrade to legend the initial armor. Its nice, and the best one is just the final one so.... we need a video for the hard crafting materials, where to farm if its posible and does things xD. Thanks 4 the work done dude and for give it to us.(Couse u cant see all full upgrades armor in the game unless u upgadre it )
Thx for your videos.
I have just one question : how you can get 73 celestial ruban I just saw on your video ? 😵💫
Never thought i would like this game as much as i do 😮 all i wanna do is grind it out 😂
The stuff you said it's not the only stuff I have the highest attack in the game if you go for the hidden secret boss ending you will get his mythical lightning spear which have the same critical and the same attack as that stuff and also have a crazy mythical affect so yeah the boss is the craziest and the hardest boss in the game with the beautiful ending you ever see so if you don't do that oh my God you miss a lot
This game is a fresh of breath air 😮💨🖤
How do you do that slam attack at 0:50 seconds o.O & how is your weapon on fire :O
Once you unlock the 4th focus point it is the heavy attack from the smash stance
i got 4 bull king iron horns in my playthrough.
I actually came here specifically to see if the bull kings armor was even worth upgrading
I'm doing 3 heavens equal pieces (staff too) and 2 galeguard with chest piece it's dope
u get 4 per playthrough - (horns) 1 in a chest and 3 from the boss - but either way u have to ng+ to craft the full set.
Amazing video, what was that parry movement you did with wind at second 47? 👌
Your sleeping in the ebongold armor cloud step super combo. 3-4 focus heavy smash plus bonus damage from cloud step and armor. Huge single hit damage with gourd and maxed cloud step with armor
Your accent is cool tho, the only reason I watch your videos
Bull king armor isnt the highest defense armor set, its the common version of wukongs armor that you get from a secret chest in chapter 6, the more relics you get the higher the defense it gets, and it keeps going up every relic you get in ng+ too. My build is using that armor with the dark iron staff which increases damage based on how much defense you have, and spell binder on top if that which helps get your crit chance to 25% so that 1/4 of all your attacks are crits, then i use 3 gold spikeplate curios to further increase defense, then i use 2 thunderbolt seals to increase mana, im only in ng+ 3 so the defense i can get isnt even at max, this build has helped me best erlang in ng+ first try. Let me know what you think or if there is anything else i should do to make the build better
the only thing stopping me from upgrading bull king armour is the 4 set bonus. perfect dodges is one of the things that makes this game feel so great and reqarding. no way they taking taht way for ANY kind of "buff"
Armor 9 is my go to because I can spam my special without even touching my mana
3 words.
Yaksha Golden button.
Yaksha armor set with one golden button curio = ohko king
Idk if you take requests, but is it possible if you can do a poison build guide eventually? I know its not the strongest build but it looks really fun and i really want to go with a poison build for my first playthrough.
I’m in my first play through, almost done with chapter 3 what armor do u guys suggest I upgrade first?
New game plus staffs are incredible
Do the staffs have better stats in new game plus?
@@royloplays No but there is a few better staffs that unlock from certain bosses.
The drip of this game is crazy
You actually get 4 iron bull horns to craft the iron bull armor
For the bull king armor I got 4 horns from the secret area 3 for beating the boss in there and one from the bull enemy glowing blue that you can get as a spirit
Quick question when considering armor what is more important defense or effect?
Defense for early~mid game.
Effect for mid~late game.
Man they really gave pillar stance all the good shit and thrust (my fav) just gets 2 spears…which are fucking amazing but I’d like an armor set that’s specifically for thrust, the closest one that I feel is ebongold because of the cloud step perk from the boots, and the centipede set kinda but you get more crit with some staffs :/
Ive gotten to almost finishing chapter 4 and just realized this is a thing lol
8:40 how do you make your staff scorch with fire?
Hold the heavy button with full focus…..called sky strike, or something like that
The only few problems I have with this game is first off the pillar(especially) and thrust stance are far worse than the smash stance for bosses and thus I’m 15 hours in with not a single point in the either 2 stances because if your much better off fully investing in smash stance as it’s the best for bosses, I’d love to use pillar stance for mobbing and stuff but I’m not gonna waste points for it. So I feel as though I’m missing a lot of the combat experience not getting to use the other stances and have to just use the same old moveset, they should’ve just had a single tree for all 3 stances and the upgrades applied to all 3. Also the fact there is no map is annoying or even at least a compass. Other than that though i cant say much bad about it and im having a blast!
You know you can refund your skill points any time you want for free right? Adapt and overcome, at no penalty
@@hoboknife7747 I know. I also don’t want to have to respec for boss fight, then resec for mobs, then ope there’s actually a mini boss there as soon as I just finished respeccing thinking I was gonna be fighting mobs so now going back to respec BACK for boss Cuzz there’s a mini, and oh he was supper easy clapped him in 10 seconds now I’m respeccing again to fight mobs again… no thank you
Did i miss the loongscale armor? I currently running that armor and fucking love the Thunder/Shock effect/damage with the kang-Jin Staff.
I'm currently on vacation but i purchase the deluxe pre-order curious about ur thoughts on the deluxe armor?
Btw i love the design on both numba 10 armor and last centipede armor.
Since i personally, love tanky-ness 🛡 i do see myself using numba 4 alot and love the design that reflects the rock 🪨 solid 👌 ability.
It’s not great….you get extra will (money) per kill…..at the beginning area it’s good to farm with. However it doesn’t scale. At lvl 50 I put it on and was still only getting like 15-20 more will. For context I have 100,000 will so it absolutely nothing. There is no mythical upgrade bonus
In the video where you're using the centipede armour how is your focus meter staying stacked when you're not doing damage?
The enemies have so many things they can do but we are stuck with a handful of powers if we could do have the stuff the enemies could do it would make the game so much better....
You're using the poison buffing armour wrong. That's why you didn't see it's true potential my friend...
Help me run a poison build then? Been trying to activate the poison but it's not activating
I have all the stuff for the build, so I need a certain amount of focus?
Wish you could change the look of your amour while wearing the armour you want.
im pretty confident you can get 7 bull-king horns per playthrough. Im on my first playthrough rn and I believe i got 7 (i will check once I get home and update)
How do you get that flame reaction on forth focus point
thanks bro😄
I’ve gotten four Kings iron horns on my first play through… I can basically craft every piece except for the helmet.. 😢 don’t ask me how I got four because I couldn’t tell you…😅
Hey nice Video!🎉
How does you get so many legendary craft material, like fine gold threat you have over 100 of it 😂
How do you get that kind of heavy attack at 13:25 ?
There is another "staff" which has exactly the same base stats as Jinguban. Not going to spoil how to get it tho
Hey there👋🏽 I think the Celestial spider staff is worded wrong cus it states when in poison state hits inflicts the enemy poison bane but watching ur vid u consumed all 4 focus points to cause the enemy poison that’s pretty strange imo
Yes it’s only 4 focus points that inflict it. 3 and bellow as well as light attacks won’t. Which is strange because the magma staff does it well with no other prerequisite and at 3 focus points. Should be buffed in my opinion
@@KhrazegamingI think it's just that 4 focus inflicts way more poison bane at once so you get the status instantly. 3 or lower deals less bane per hit, light attacks do less bane per hit. I got it to proc poison without 4 focus just fine. Staff spin is a fun way to build up.
It's bad that the materials are limited. If I knew that I would never have crafted all the armors. Really bad design, I don't want to go all the way back to restart the game to get the mats I want.
I thought I was cooking with the baizhe armor then I read more closely. That stuff won’t activate 95 percent of my time 😂
I beat baizhe without it, any frog enemies where this could apply, beaten. There’s a loong and a hippo “boss” in chapter 6 but I did not wear it then either and I beat them within 5 attempts each
What does the tenacity buff even do for the bull king set?
If got 4 Horns... idk where... the 1 other one came from ^^
