Searching for the best Spirits in Black Myth: Wukong? After defeating powerful enemies and obtaining their “Spirit”, you gain the ability to take on their form during combat. While you can only equip one Spirit at a time, their signature moves and passive abilities (ranging from extra defense to reduced mana cost) provide a huge advantage in battle. Beware that the transformation lasts only a few seconds – if you wish to use a Spirit again, you’ll have to recover enough Qi by hitting enemies.
Spirits may be upgraded at a Keeper’s Shrine to become even stronger, but since this requires a lot of Will and resources, it’s best to save the enhancements for the ones you really love. To help you find your favourites, here’s an overview of the best Spirits in Black Myth: Wukong.
Who hasn’t occasionally wanted to turn into a blue Yaoguai Chief and smash your opponents with your giant head? Not only does this ability deal a ton of damage, but it has excellent range for a melee attack, allowing you to hit multiple enemies at once. The Wandering Wight passively improves your defense by 20 points, which boosts your survivability in early game and works great with defense-scaling builds in late game (using the Dark Iron Staff in particular). There’s just one drawback: the attack animation comes with a slight delay, so make sure your target isn’t about to move when you initiate the Wandering Wight’s attack.
