Clear Purple Cloud Mountain Before Returning To Webbed Hollow
Take On Daoist Mi Before Fighting Duskveil
Before crossing the bridge to the first mountain shrine, the friendly snake warns of poisonous enemies ahead. This is not a ruse. Most enemies are poisonous,so boosting poison resistance is advisable. Craft theNon-Pure Armor of Coiling Loongor spendMind Corewith Xu Dog to upgrade poison resistance.
The extra defense will be particularlyuseful against the Scorpionlordand Daoist Mi. Note that you’ll need to complete the Daoist Mi quest before taking on Duskveil,otherwise the side quest will be locked. Defeating Daoist Mi grantsViolet Hail (Spell).
Defeat Duskveil To Receive Weaver’s Needle
Survive Two-Phases Against The Giant Yaoguai And Receive A Blessing
A Large set of stairs in the Petalfall Hamlet leads to Duskveil’s arena. At Cloud Nest Peak, make final preparations for a long fight. All the poison resistance you equippedwon’t do much good against Duskveil. The chief is powerful but doesn’t deal poison damage. Instead, I advise boosting overall defense and critical hit damage. Equip damage-reducing armor and curios, as well as attack-enhancing items, like soaks. This is a two-phase boss fight,so maximizing damage output should be your focus.
Like most large enemies inBlack Myth: Wukong,Duskveil is weak at the ankles. Closing the distance on this boss is critical so that the Destined One can relentlessly strike Duskveil’s legs and build up focus. When focus is fully charged, unleash a charge attack. Duskveil will stagger when critically hit, so it’s important to reserve spells, spirits, and transformations for phase two; instead,relying on martial arts abilities. This is possible to do because Duskveil begins the fight with a diminished health bar.
Phase Two begins after a lengthy cut scene, where Duskveil harnesses divine power to reach full health. The boss will also start this phase by deployingvaried ranged attacks. Dodge these attacks while working your way back to Duskveil’s ankles. Here, the same strategy from phase one applies with the addition of utilizing Mana and Qi. When your health is low, transform. I found theUmbral Abysstransformation to be useful, striking Duskveil repeatedly to charge up Cold Heart. Don’t use A Pluck Of Many to save mana forImmobilizeandCloud Step.Defeat Duskveil and free its imprisoned soul.
Defeating Duskveil also rewards Kun Steel, a key item for weapon crafting.

Just make sure to come back to Purple Cloud Mountain beforetaking on Hundred-Eyed Daoistin the Court of Illumination, since the monkey will want to have Weaver’s Needle during the final boss fight. Additionally, fully explore the region of chapter four, sono side quests are left unfinished.
One side quest that is easy to miss is thepurple talisman quest. Exploring the areas of Webbed Hollow leads to collecting three purple talismans. The fourth purple talisman is in the Court of Illumination. It’s a tricky placement for a key item, since it’s possible to enter the final boss fight before completing the side quest. Don’t be like me, who failed to collect the fourth talisman before defeating Hundred-Eyed Daoist.This resulted in being locked out of the quest. Take on Hundred-Eyed Daoist when ready and use Weaver’s Needle to claim the fourth relic inBlack Myth: Wukong.
