Black Myth: Wukong – How to Level Up Quickly (When You’re Stuck)?

We've already discussed how surprisingly straightforward and linear Black Myth: Wukong is in practice, but now's the time to revisit that topic with newfound knowledge, because by golly are you going to want to farm up some Sparks every now and then.

More specifically, Black Myth: Wukong has no shortage of difficulty bumps along the way, especially when you get stuck in one of the game's many different boss gauntlet scenarios. In these cases, you're going to need every single boon you can get, and Sparks are, generally, the best way to progress onwards. Here's how to score a level-up or two and get a few bonus Sparks along the way in Wukong!

How to Level Up Quickly in Black Myth: Wukong?

 

It's plainly obvious from the get-go that Black Myth: Wukong isn't really designed as a game where you'd be absolutely forced to go back and re-clear old areas of enemies just to rack up XP. Yet, if you're anything like us (i.e. an average gaming fan) the odds are good you'll simply have to go back to farm up a few extra Sparks/skill points.

Wukong gets really, really tough in some places, and you're just going to need every single boon you could possibly eke out.

Now, even though the game is designed as a mostly linear and straightforward boss romp, you can go back to certain spots to farm out more XP. So far, we've discovered two important location that lend themselves well to this tactic:

These are accessible somewhat early on, and you should have no trouble taking down the local Yaoguai over and over again until you have a few extra Sparks at hand.

Now, minor Yaoguai XP drops are fairly miniscule, but if you missed out on an optional boss or two, that's also a great source of not only XP/Sparks, but also potentially game-changing new unlocks. One big example that comes up early in the game is that of the Wandering Wight in the Forest of Wolves. Odds are good you'll have to avoid this boss when you first find it, and in our case, we initially forgot all about it until we got stuck at the White-Clad Noble boss fight.

Circling back to the Wandering Wight and taking it down gave us an extra Spark and an extremely handy temporary Transformation that helped us take the Noble down, and there are many more examples of similarly zig-zaggy progression in this game later on.
