Black Myth Wukong offers transformations that allow you to become foes you’ve defeated during your journey. To transform, navigate to the Self-Advance tab and select Set Spells. This guide will assist you in choosing the best transformation for your play style. Transformations in Black Myth Wukong are temporary, but you can use them between extended cooldowns. Moreover, they work well with Spirit attacks, allowing you to combine them to overcome challenging bosses.
1. Azure Dome
Azure Dome is undoubtedly the most potent transformation in Black Myth Wukong, but obtaining it is incredibly challenging. When transformed into Azure Dome, you’ll become immune to Shock and Poison and absorb all Frost damage. Its most potent heavy attack involves launching you into the air, striking down all enemies below, and restoring your health.
How to get: The final and most powerful transformation is acquired through a secret ending and defeating the final boss in Black Myth Wukong, making it incredibly difficult to obtain.
2. Violet Hail
Violet Hail increases your Poison damage and resistance, adding Poison Bane to your attacks. Your Light Attack stays the same, and although Self-Torment lowers your HP slightly, it imbues your blade with up to four larvae to inflict on opponents.
With the Hive Mind Spell, you can explore all of these larvae, causing immense damage immediately and recovering a substantial amount of health.
How to get: To acquire the Violet Hail Transformation, players must unlock the secret area in Chapter 4, ‘Purple Cloud Mountain.’ This area becomes accessible after defeating the Venom Daoist boss twice, leading to a confrontation with Daoist Mi. The Snake Lady will teach you the Violet Hail Transformation Spell upon his defeat.
3. Golden Lining
The Golden Lining transformation will enhance your Lightning Flash by increasing invincibility duration and granting immunity to Shock and Thunder Bane.
Your Light Attack will allow you to eliminate foes rapidly, and Fatal Shadow will easily land Critical Hits.
How to get: To acquire this powerful transformation, you’ll need Loong Scales, obtainable in Chapter 2 after defeating the First Prince of Flowing Sands boss. This unlocks three secret Loong bosses in Black Myth: Wukong, including one near the ‘Relief of the Fallen Loong’ Shrine in Webbed Hollow, Chapter 4. Defeating Yellow Loong will reward you with this transformation.
4. Umbral Abyss
Umbral Abyss grants you the Unique Talent Red Eyes, which extends your attacks after defeating enemies and can stack up to 30 times.
The Transformation Trait inflicts Frost Bane with each hit, and your Light Attack becomes unstoppable, especially given that the final slash provides so much Focus.
How to get: Unlike other Transformations, this one doesn’t require a lengthy quest or a specific boss fight to unlock. Players automatically learn it upon completing Chapter 3 in Black Myth: Wukong.
5. Ebon Flow
Ebon Flow has a Unique Talent called Cold Edge, which decreases the cooldown for all your Alteration Spells and can deflect and teleport your dash moves.
While your Light Attack may be slightly slower, it will build up your Focus, allowing you to deal significant damage. The higher your Focus, the more powerful your Heavy Attack will become.
How to get: To obtain this Transformation, players must defeat the Yin Tiger boss in Black Myth: Wukong. This boss can be encountered in Chapter 3 after completing Chen Loong’s side quest.
This article offers guidance for making better decisions. In the end, the decision is personal. The best way to determine the ideal transformation for your gameplay style in Black Myth Wukong is to experiment with different ones.
