Players need to vanquish the Stone Vanguard positioned atop Fright Cliff in order to capture the Steadfastness of Stone within Black Myth Wukong. You can access this adversary by traversing various routes leading to Fright Cliff.

  • Spawn at the Rock Crash Platform Shrine and head to the right
  • Spawn at the Rockrest Flat Shrine and head to the left (There is an archway to the left of where you spawn that leads to the battlefield)

I prefer the former because there are no enemies to move past and you’ll immediately see the Stone Vanguard. Furthermore, defeating him also earns you 1652 XP, 1366 Will, a Mind Core, and two Yaoguai cores.

How to Defeat the Stone Vanguard in Black Myth Wukong

Before we explain how you can fight Stone Vanguard on your own, there’s another method to fighting him that doesn’t require you to do anything at all. Throughout chapter three, there are six Buddha Eyes players can collect. When you’ve collected all six, go ahead and enter the Arena with the Stone Vanguard, but take the entrance from the Rockrest Flat Shrine route instead.

In this specific spot, I stumbled upon a peculiar rock formation. Here, I managed to place all six Buddha Eyes and conjure Shigandang, another formidable boss. Shigandang may be tough, but if you make him tangle with the Stone Vanguard first, it’ll weaken both adversaries significantly. After that, it’s a great opportunity to engage the weakened one in battle. If you decide to employ this tactic, remember to save most of your mana, healing items, or special skills for the final stretch.

But if you’ve already engaged the Stone Vanguard in Combat, he’s not too difficult.

The Stone Vanguard is a tanky boss but his attack set is a bit more predictable and easier to dodge than other bosses. However, you want to watch out for some of these moves which might catch you off guard:

  • The Stone Vanguard sometimes spawns mini rock guais that explode if they make contact with you
  • He also has multiple attacks that cover an entire area (one that covers a cone-shaped area in front, and another with a circular blast radius)

Additionally, Stone Vanguard has the ability to jump, allowing him to bridge the gap between you and him. It’s crucial that you evade right before he touches down, or simply run away while dodging backwards. This quadrupedal character possesses other moves too, such as a standard swing attack followed by a more powerful strike.

In summary, this covers all the essential steps for obtaining the Sternness of Stone in Black Myth Wukong. We trust that it aids you in navigating your way through the level’s challenges. For additional tips on gathering items such as Silk and others, explore our collection of helpful guides.
