Alright, guys, so I’ve been diving deep into Black Myth: Wukong lately, and I gotta say, the gourd system is pretty damn cool. I wanted to figure out which ones were the best, so I spent a good chunk of my weekend messing around with different setups. Here’s what I found.

Experimenting with Gourds
First, I collected all the gourds I could find. I mean, I scoured every corner of the map, beat every boss I could, and opened every chest I stumbled upon. Gotta catch ’em all, right?
Then, I started testing them out. I went to some areas with those annoying, fast enemies and some with the big, tanky dudes. I wanted to see how each gourd performed against different types of baddies.
- The fire gourd? Pretty awesome for crowd control. I managed to burn down a whole group of those little monkey guys in seconds.
- The one that shoots out those icy blasts? Super useful for slowing down the big guys, gave me some breathing room to dodge their attacks.
- There’s this other gourd, I think it’s a lightning one, that chains attacks between enemies. Really satisfying to watch them all get zapped.
The Best of the Best?
Honestly? It’s kinda hard to say which one is the “best” overall. It really depends on your playstyle and what you’re fighting. But, if I had to pick a few favorites:
- For pure damage: The fire gourd is a beast. Seriously, the area-of-effect damage is insane.
- For control: Ice gourd all the way. Slowing down enemies is a lifesaver, especially in boss fights.
- For fun factor: Gotta go with the lightning gourd. Watching those chains of electricity jump between enemies is just too cool.
My Final Setup
After hours of testing and experimenting and fighting, I have crafted my ultimate setup.
I equipped the fire and ice gourd as my go-to options.
With these two, I can adapt to any situation.
So, there you have it. That’s my take on the best gourds in Black Myth: Wukong. Remember, this is just my experience, and your mileage may vary. Go out there, experiment, and find what works best for you! And don’t forget to have fun!
