Black Myth: Wukong - How To Beat Elder Amourworm (Boss Guide)

Elder Amourworm is an optional boss in Chapter Four of . Just beyond Verdure Bridge, one of the Webbed Hollow’s many poisonous chiefs lurks on a cocoon-infested cliff. While not the toughest of foes, there’s more than meets the eye with this boss. Elder Amourworm is also tied to the rice cocoons secret quest.

Hey, look, free treasure! Inside the archway, there are five unguarded golden chests. Open each of them to collect special items. Now, about that the Sister spoke of. Surprise, it’s Elder Amourworm.

There are two ways I suggest preparing for the fight. First, boost the monkey’s poison resistance, if you haven’t already done so. Second, make sure Mana is full. The fight itself will be explained in the next section.

One of the secret Yaoguai King bosses you can face in Black Myth: Wukong is Shigandang, a massive rock golem you can beat for some rare rewards.
