In Black Myth: WukongFuban is an intimidating, secret boss that can seem overwhelming, but with a solid strategy, you can bring this Yaoguai King down. Here’s a detailed breakdown of how to defeat Fuban, from learning his attack patterns to knowing when to strike.
Fuban’s Attacks
Fuban is a massive, armored beetle-like creature with limited weak points, and his attacks are designed to catch you off guard. He has a mix of burrowing, sweeping, and powerful slam attacks that can deal significant damage. Here’s what to watch for:
- Dive Attack: Fuban’s signature move is his “Dive,” where he burrows underground and rushes at you from below, jumping out with force. This attack is his opener, and you’ll encounter it multiple times. To avoid it, either dodge perfectly just as he emerges or run to maintain a safe distance.
- Claw Swings: Fuban swings his claws in a double swipe, followed by a vertical smash. Dodge to the opposite side of the claw that’s swinging and prepare to roll away from the vertical blow. The magic abilities “Cloud Walk” or “Rock Hard” can provide extra protection here.
- Lateral Press: Fuban will lean to one side and drop his entire body weight. Stay alert and avoid positioning yourself near his side to prevent being crushed.
- Uppercut: Another dangerous move is his upward claw or horn strike. It’s swift and strong, but rolling to the right usually offers the best chance of dodging it.
- Triple Enhanced Dive: During the transition to the second phase, Fuban will dive three times in succession, each faster than the last. It’s crucial to keep moving and rolling to avoid taking damage.
Phase One: Surviving the Assault
In the first phase, focus on survival. Fuban’s front claws are his only vulnerable spots, and targeting these is key to wearing down his health. His body and most of his armor are impervious to damage, so stay close to his face but remain mobile to dodge his frequent attacks. Use spells and artifacts early, as this phase is the hardest part of the battle.
A good strategy is to stay patient and attack only after he finishes a combo or dive. Don’t get greedy—landing a few hits and backing off is the safest route. His heavy attacks have long recovery periods, giving you just enough time to strike before moving out of range again.
Phase Two: Help Arrives
After you’ve reduced Fuban’s health by about 40%, a cutscene will trigger, and the fight will shift to the second phase. Here, Sage Yellow Wind, an NPC ally, joins you in the battle, making things easier.
The Yellow Wind Sage plays a crucial role, stunning Fuban at regular intervals. When this happens, jump onto Fuban’s body and interact with a statue located on his back to drain his energy. This interactive moment is a pivotal part of the fight and significantly weakens the boss.
While Yellow Wind fights alongside you, stay close but avoid getting too involved in the direct melee. Let your ally stun and destabilize Fuban, and when the boss collapses, rush in to deal damage to his claws. Repeat this tactic until Fuban’s health is fully depleted.
Additional Tips for the Battle
- Positioning: Keep circling around Fuban to his front or slightly behind his head. Avoid his sides where his press and claw attacks are more dangerous.
- Timing: Dodging at the right moment is critical, especially during his Dive and Triple Enhanced Dive attacks. Rolling too early or too late can be deadly.
- Use Your Magic: Don’t hold back on using magic or special abilities in the first phase, as the second phase is much easier with Yellow Wind’s help. Abilities like “Cloud Walk” can give you the breathing room needed to recover.
The key to defeating Fuban lies in patience, timing, and positioning. His large size and limited weak spots force you to focus on precision rather than brute force. Surviving the first phase is the hardest part, but once Yellow Wind joins the fray, the battle becomes much more manageable.
