How To Increase Tenacity In Black Myth: Wukong
Use The Fortifying Medicament And Bull King’s Armor
Aside from using medicines, another way to boost Tenacity is byusing theBull King’s Armor Set. This particular set consists ofBull King’s Mask,Bull King’s Bracers,Bull King’s Shan Wen Armor, andBull King’s Greaves. Players won’t be able to craft all four in the same playthrough. They will need to start New Game+ to get ahold of all the materials necessary to craft the set. The Bull King’s Armor Set has two perks, which activate whenever players have equipped two pieces or four pieces of the set. TheTenacity boost is only activated when all four pieces have been equipped. After players have crafted all four pieces, they should put them on and see the difference while fighting.
Tenacitycan be fun to use, but players should keep a closeeye on their HP gauge, mainly because enemy attacks won’t stop them attacking. It is completely possible to get carried away and end up dying because of carelessness. Tenacity is particularly useful against mobs, as players can mow them down without having to expend too much time.
Tenacity should not be used beyond the first New Game+, as the enemies become significantly more dangerous.
