Summary
One gamer decided to show off to theBlack Myth: Wukongcommunity and post their Destined One’s attack power. At an incredibly high number, it’s likely that otherBlack Myth: Wukongplayers haven’t reached this level in their attack skill. Commentators weighed in, and many still feel it’s not high enough.
Black Myth: Wukongwas released in 2024 and is inspired by the classical Chinese novelJourney to the West. Gamers take on the role of a monkey protagonist who must seek the different body parts of the legendary Sun Wukong of myth. Along the way, they will meet various characters inspired by the myth and learn different attack types. Gameplay-wise, it is an objectively difficultsoulslike with mechanics that are newto the genre. Considering its heightened difficulty, having a really high attack power can feel completely unattainable
Redditor demnklnr posted a screenshot of their in-game Equipment Menu, featuring the Destined One’s statistics on the right-hand side. The character’s attack power is highlighted in yellow, showing an impressive 900. Their other statistics are also incredibly impressive, but none as much as their attack power. Additionally, the player’s Destined One is wearing the Mythical Pilgrim’s Set, which can be obtained by upgrading the armor pieces within the Pilgrim’s Set. However, some commentators believe that all of that still won’t be enough to defeat some bosses inBlack Myth: Wukong’sNew Game+.
Black Myth Player Shows Off Impressive 900 Attack Power
Other commentators chimed in, taking the conversation in a different direction and focusing on whether New Game+ forBlack Myth: Wukongis easy. More specifically, players began discussing how many times they’ve been able to complete New Game+, considering that it can be replayed multiple times while allowing players to keep their items, skills, and Will. It seems that despite demnklnr’s achievement, the real conversation is if players found it to be one of the morechallenging New Game+ modes in a soulslike game.
The screenshot does not indicate which playthrough of the game’s New Game+ the player is at. However, judging by the amount of Will they’ve earned, it appears they have been playing for many hours. Hopefully, demnklnr also managed to complete other in-game milestones along the way, including achieving the platinum trophy and collectingall of the Spirits inBlack Myth: Wukong. Otherwise, people in the comments will likely think they didn’t try hard enough.
