Black Myth: Wukong’s second chapter ramps up the difficulty with formidable foes at nearly every turn. The First Prince of Flowing Sands stands out as a particularly challenging adversary.
To face this mighty boss, you must first summon him, which can be done in two ways:
- Defeat the King of Flowing Sands before the Second Rat Prince to obtain the Pungent Flesh Chunk. Use this item to summon the First Prince shortly after the double boss fight.
- If you defeat the Second Rat Prince first, the King will flee into a cave and summon the First Prince himself.
Once summoned, prepare for an epic battle. Despite his intimidating appearance, the First Prince’s slow movements work in your favor. Exploit his weaknesses to emerge victorious:
- Dodge and strike: After the Prince’s normal combos, dodge and counterattack. Repeat this pattern to chip away at his health.
- Seize opportunities: When the Prince jumps and lands on his back, unleash a full combo or a charged heavy attack for significant damage.
- Use the environment: Lure the Prince into charging at the black metal wall, causing him to stun himself and leaving him vulnerable to your attacks.
- Harness the power of fire: Transform into Red Tiles to inflict fire damage, as beast enemies seem susceptible to this element.
Conquering the First Prince rewards you with the Arhat Gold Piece and a piece of silk. These items grant access to a secret area and enable you to craft specific armor pieces, making this battle a worthwhile endeavor.
Embrace the challenge, trust in your skills, and triumph over the First Prince of Flowing Sands. Your legend in Black Myth: Wukong awaits!
