I just used this build to finish this boss in NG+9 (cycle 10) in 1.0.9. There are 2 new tips I got during the fights: #1: If you find Boss cannot be frozen at the beginning of the fight, try to quit the main menu, then load the current game. I found that Boss gets easier to be frozen in first 3 or 4 fights after re-load the game. #2: Use Bat when Fan is activating and its effect is almost gone, no matter if Boss is at the edge of map, or not. btw: leave a comment if you're able to beat Boss with the above tips. 😁
Dude, thank you for this. Big guy has been kicking my a$$ again and again and again after I beat Erlang this time. Tried all different builds, but not the fan+Qi one that used to wreck Erlang. Will be giving this a try soon. Thanks!
Life saver bro!!! The key was the Golden Armor. I had just enough Will to upgrade all my Golden Armor to Mythical at this stage in the game. The Golden Armor and Qi os the solution. Thanks bro!!
Hey great video!. The funny thing is, ironically now i am finding Erlang and Great sage boss as easy bosses than other bosses now. My muscle memory is so high my hand automatically perfect dodging even without my concern. This is because Erlang and great sage boss are the most difficult boss i faced and it took me 6 hrs each to beat them both first time. For Erlang i rarely use fan now, so for him i can now easily defeat him with Yaksha armor and spell binder. Stone monkey is now nothing for me but great sage is taking 2 or 3 attempts. Love this game.
brother thank you. I completed my NG+2 yesterday and i still couldn't get enough of this game and wanted to try ng+3 but was hesitating because bro in ng+2 was hard even with my spellbinder run you just saved my ass thank you again even erlang was a breeze to me but holy sage
I was on NG+2 and was struggling, your build is perfect. I beat him on 3rd try with this build. Let me add to your build the Life Saving Strand spell and Guanyin's Willow Leaf soak which can give you up to 2 more lives
Great information! I'm on NG+3, this strategy helped! In his 2nd phase, there were times I had to use a "stick and move" flow because my charges were low. Appreciate it!
@@shengqianI didn’t exactly get it first try but eventually it worked the positioning to freeze him is a little bit weird to get as well as timing with the fan but once it worked it was kind of satisfying
People are trying too hard. Use tri-point staff with thrust stance. Spell binder and life saving strand and you’ll make do with him in no time. Just beat him with that strat on NG+3. You can completely trivialize the first phase by stun locking him pretty much the entire phase using the light attack to heavy thrust. Theres a couple attacks that can nab you in the second phase because the thrust doesn’t stun him every time anymore. Just gotta be good with the sudden dodges on his huge heavy attacks but once you get that down, you should be good. Got him down to 1/4th health in the second phase when I died but life saving strand brought me back with half a gourd and i finished him right quick easily.
My startegy always works. The fan,wight,all monkey king armor (critical not all defense wukong armor) ruyi jingubang, and stone monkey with immobilize,pluck of many,cloud step. With enhanced pills😅
Hey, thanks for the video. Any tips on how to charge apramana bat faster? i have almost everything u have including golden armor nad fast qi gain , but the bat is not charging fast enough
And To get Qi, you need to trigger enough Criti Hit. Besides the weapon+Curios, you need to use drink (Tiger Relic for 15s) and medicine (Amplification Pellet for 75s) to get higher criti Hit Chance.
The great sage is very weak to chill. That's how I beat him on NG+ .so you can use whatever you like on stone monkey then switch to the bat for the great sage
Later in the NG+ runs, I noticed that Bat is not the most optimized spirit for this build. I run the following. -Full golden build -Plantain Fan -Adept Spine -Celestial Birthstone Fragment -x3 Cat Eye beads - Amber Prayer Beads (Optional) ***Falcon Hermit*** -Although does not offer immune spirits summon, guarantees to free and has a much faster Qi build up. *** Bat *** Offer immunity on cast but does not guarantee freeze while having a longer Qi build up time but trades off for higher damage. I will switch to bat for less challenging enemies where control isn’t a must. You won’t use Crow Driver in late game for Mani Bead crit anymore once you stack up on amp potions.
How do you make the description appear in numbers of what the flasks give you, for example I in the game read "briefly increases the attack'' instead in yours I read ( +15 ATK ) , OR YOU READ THE SPECIFICATIONS OF EACH INCREASE THAT GIVES YOU ANYTHING, FOR EXAMPLE DRINKS WEAPON ARMS
if u want a cheese for erlang, use fan first dont hit him until his shield deplets otherwise he will attack back do some damage work when the tornado takes out his shield like ginseng or tiger pellets whatever just buff then after his shield gets down do a 4* heavy you need to take down 25% of his hp then phase 2 that big axe run towards him and dodge the clod flow that comes after he reaches down then use azure dust. except azure dust the remaining 8 transformations he will cancel them. and now repeat these steps 50% health phase 3 use fan again 75% health shield 4 use azure dust GG
Is your criti hit chance too low? With the build I used in vid, I can restore at least 90% of Fan with Spinning. And the rest 10% can be restored by 4 focus points attack.
This is very outdated. I used this exact same build and the bat doesn't even freeze this specific boss. I fully upgraded the bat just fyi. The immobilize spell does freeze it for 2 seconds that's it. This build works great with almost any boss including Erlang but not on this boss
Tried this today. Works like a charm. Easy boss fight. You clearly have a skill issue, and that's fine. You can win after you overcome this skill issue. Good luck.

Yeah im here cuz of ng 3a great sage to be honest in ng 3 erlang much easier to beat but not great sage himself 😂

Thank you. I try to defeat him ng+3 with this method.
Nice work!
O Will test this build next time. I use the reduction damage on him
Hey, thanks for the video. Any tips on how to charge apramana bat faster? i have almost everything u have including golden armor nad fast qi gain , but the bat is not charging fast enough
Try using sunset of the nine skies to replenish the rest of your qi
And To get Qi, you need to trigger enough Criti Hit. Besides the weapon+Curios, you need to use drink (Tiger Relic for 15s) and medicine (Amplification Pellet for 75s) to get higher criti Hit Chance.
@@kenneth29931 good idea , thanks
@@shengqian got it thanks 😊
Phase 1 is a breeze but i can't get the bat to freeze him in the 2nd phase. Any tips?
If bat cannot freeze boss at the beginning, try to quit the game and re-enter it.
Which item do you recommend if you don't have the lantern?
U can choose anything to increase your damage!
👉👏👏
Great build! Unfortunately Stone Monkey doesn't get frozen so you cannot use this build since the very beginning of this final fight :(
stone monkey doesnt even need a build
Thanks for the info!
The great sage is very weak to chill. That's how I beat him on NG+ .so you can use whatever you like on stone monkey then switch to the bat for the great sage
Later in the NG+ runs, I noticed that Bat is not the most optimized spirit for this build. I run the following.

-Adept Spine
-Celestial Birthstone Fragment
-x3 Cat Eye beads

*** Bat ***
Offer immunity on cast but does not guarantee freeze while having a longer Qi build up time but trades off for higher damage.

You won’t use Crow Driver in late game for Mani Bead crit anymore once you stack up on amp potions.
Freeze* not free
how tf do you keep using your skills nonstop i get only two and i have everything in the game and new game plus 3!
We need a video like this but for the first time beating this last boss any help please

What’s with the cloud step in the beginning?
its easy when you face the final boss with game+ show us the first game play
Holy!! This same build for Erlong??
if u want a cheese for erlang, use fan first dont hit him until his shield deplets otherwise he will attack back do some damage work when the tornado takes out his shield like ginseng or tiger pellets whatever just buff then after his shield gets down do a 4* heavy you need to take down 25% of his hp then phase 2 that big axe run towards him and dodge the clod flow that comes after he reaches down then use azure dust. except azure dust the remaining 8 transformations he will cancel them. and now repeat these steps 50% health phase 3 use fan again 75% health shield 4 use azure dust GG
Yes, it is. Erlang is easier to beat because he only has one health bar.
Can you start new cycle after this?
Yes, you can start new cycle without fighting Erlang Shen.
Lo haces igual que yo
How are you able to get to 4 focus on phase 2? I’m on ng+ and can’t get to 4 focus, only 3
With Golden armor set, spinning can build up 4 focus points super quick
Does this build works before entering NG or is specifically for NG +++?
I used this build to beat Erlang Shen in NG: ua-cam.com/video/eOgaLy9WcHQ/v-deo.html
Iam not able to recover fan bro after freezing
Is your criti hit chance too low? With the build I used in vid, I can restore at least 90% of Fan with Spinning. And the rest 10% can be restored by 4 focus points attack.
@@shengqian crit hit is not too low but somehow I can't beat him . I will try again with ur build. Thanks
What is the song in the video man :D.
I love this music: ua-cam.com/video/Ml4tHUO6AVw/v-deo.html
I don't know... But the frozen doesn't work for me... It gets covered in ice but keeps moving... Why?
Same also doesnt freeze most of the time
@@xavieryue2053 It might be because we've gone past some NGs... I don't know. I'm on NG+2 and it doesn't work for me.
I dont have the bat where do u find it
This is a side quest in chapter 3 Bitter Lake. Found a link: www.ign.com/wikis/black-myth-wukong/Apramana_Bat
Hi,what is the music song name?
BGM:ua-cam.com/video/eO_B6uAX2Rg/v-deo.html
How to open 4th & 5th curios slots ?!!?
In every cycle, you unlock new slot after beat Yin Tiger.
@shengqian the maximum is 5 slots ....or is it limited According to each new plus game ??!
I cant freeze him at all
Edit: reload the game and able to freeze him. Thanx!!
Glad you did it.
it works better if you use the falcon hermit
imao, falcon hermit spirit works in NG or NG+. But in higher NG, Bat still is the best spirit with Fan.
What music is this

Im still stuck ...ng+3 broken shelll ps5 😂
Fan&Bat or damage reduction should work on ng+3
This is very outdated. I used this exact same build and the bat doesn't even freeze this specific boss. I fully upgraded the bat just fyi. The immobilize spell does freeze it for 2 seconds that's it. This build works great with almost any boss including Erlang but not on this boss
Yes. Doesnt work at all.
You just have no skills and he made this fight easy as ever hahah
Tried this today. Works like a charm. Easy boss fight. You clearly have a skill issue, and that's fine. You can win after you overcome this skill issue. Good luck.
This still works. Even with the latest update. Timing is needed to get the bat to freeze great sage. If you do it after the fan, it won’t work.
I just tried this and it works!!! Thanks for the guide
On the second phase sometime it doesn't proc the frozen then you are down... so need some luck to finalize properly
NG++ dun work for me... can't freeze him at all...even at the edge part...
I used the same setup. ua-cam.com/video/q6RZauZfZ3Q/v-deo.htmlsi=AmiXhf-fIrrLmbRk
Great strat 🫶🏾 worked just fine, 2025
