But again, some players may prefer to use Quality mode anyway, even if it results in a slightly lower frame rate. The game is perfectly playable, if a little jumpier, on this setting. Ultimately, it all comes down to the player's preference of how to play _Black Myth: Wukong  
  
  
Make sure to follow the pathway towards the back of the boss arena to interact with the Bell before returning to the marsh, where you can progress into the cave to continue chapter 1 in **Black Myth: Wukong   
  
  
When you defeat particular high-level enemies and bosses in Black Myth: Wukong , you can cultivate their Spirits at any Keeper's Shrine. This allows you to effectively take their form and use their effects momentarily, which can be extremely powerful in combat. At this stage in Chapter 1, players will have unlocked Wandering Wight's and Guangou's Spiri  
  
  
Heading left from the Wandering Wight's location will lead you to another Yaoguai Chief optional boss named Guangzhi. Defeat Guangzhi to gain a transformation , an ability that allows you to turn into the beaten boss for a limited time. While fighting in this alternate form, you don't take damage to your main health bar, but instead only have your transformation timer reduced as you get   
  
  
**Black Myth: Wukong ** is an extremely boss-heavy action RPG, providing players opportunities to face various enemies, all with unique skills and movesets, such as Whiteclad Noble. While not a King or even a Chief Yaoguai, Whiteclad Noble is considered one of the hardest bosses in Chapter 1, one of the few with two phases, but is equally thrilling and engaging to confr  
  
Guangzhi is one of these bosses, a wolfman who's quick on his feet and even quicker with his spear. His weapon is also doused in fire , making him pretty tricky to deal with so early in the game. We're here to help cool things down though, and you'll have Guangzhi down faster than you can say "good boy."  
  
  
In short, the majority of settings that differ in the default Performance/Quality mode profiles are minor details . Players will be able to enjoy the same high render distance, visual smoothing, texture quality, and post-processing effects on either profile. They may, however, notice some dips in quality when looking at vegetation - sparser blades of grass, or blurrier leaves on trees, for example. Lighting will look less realistic overall, and the visual effects created by the Destined One's magical attacks may not look quite so impressive. Even so, the profiles are, for the most part, pretty simi  
  
  
While many of the base settings in both presets are similar, the Performance preset cranks the quality down across several categories to allow for a smoother experience . The following table compares each graphical setting that's affected by the two pres  
  
  
For those who are still unsure, **Black Myth: Wukong offers a benchmark tool that allows them to determine which settings are best for their individual system's specs ** . The Wukong benchmark is available for free via Steam , and tests a PC's capability by rendering a scene from the game and evaluating its performance. This will return a recommended group of settings for the full SLG game patch notes, and ultimately, a judgment about whether a PC is capable of running the game. Players can use this benchmark ahead of downloading the game to determine which settings work best for t  
  
  
That can all be a little overwhelming, so Black Myth: Wukong _ also provides two pre-configured default settings for different modes: Performance mode and Quality mode . Although each setting has its own benefits, different graphical modes will work differently depending on each system's specifications. Here's how each of _Wukong 's graphical presets works, and which one is best for different kinds of play  
  
  
A degree of preference factors into every player's choice, but for the most part, **Performance mode is the best option for Black Myth: Wukong ** . That's due to the simple fact that it is an action RPG, and takes inspiration from Soulslike games . Players will have to pay careful attention to enemy movement, ensuring that they get out of the way in a timely manner. This is much easier at the higher, more consistent frame rates provided by Performance mode. On this setting, stuttering is a lot less likely, which means players will less frequently miss cues for incoming attacks. The combat will also feel more fluid and satisfying, and the overall gameplay will benefit from  
  
  
Try to explore many of the areas of the forest to see what items you can get before facing the Wandering Wight. Defeating the basic enemies here, who reset when you return to a Shrine, will help you earn Sparks to level up. Just open the "Self-Advance" tab when resting at a Shrine to improve your stats or make abilities stronger by spending Sparks you get from farming enemies close to where the Wight resi  
  
  
One of the best strategies for beating the Wandering Wight is to land heavy attacks against the boss whenever you can. Although you have to time these as the boss recovers from its attacks, striking the boss with a heavy attack from Smash stance will stagger it for a short time. This does consume a Focus Point, so you'll have to build up light attacks to be able to do this move ag
