BUILDS

Best Builds & Boss Tips

Wukong rewards aggression. Pick a stance, build a spell kit around control, and punish every opening.

Core setup

🌀 Smash Stance + Focus
The reliable all-rounder — bank Focus with lights, then unleash a fully charged Smash.
🧊 Immobilize opener
Freeze a boss and land a charged Heavy — the backbone of most kills.
🐾 A clutch Transformation
Keep a transformation (e.g. Red Tides) for a second health bar in tough phases.
🏺 Vessels for your plan
Slot Curios and a Spirit that reinforce Focus, survivability or your damage type.

Boss tips

  • Stay aggressive — bosses punish passivity more than mistimed attacks.
  • Learn each boss's big wind-up; perfect-dodge it for a free charged Heavy.
  • Save Immobilize for when a boss over-extends, not to open a full-health fight.
  • Respec freely at Keeper's Shrines to counter a specific Yaoguai King.
