The Burning Phoenix is one of the most iconic and challenging bosses in Black Myth: Wukong. Encountered in the fiery landscapes of Chapter Four – Flaming Mountains, this boss embodies the essence of flames and rebirth. With powerful fire-based attacks and the ability to regenerate health, Burning Phoenix demands players to strategize and remain vigilant throughout the battle.

Burning Phoenix Attack Patterns
Understanding the Burning Phoenix’s attack patterns is crucial to defeat it efficiently:
Blazing Dive
Description: The Burning Phoenix ascends into the air and then rapidly dives toward the player with a trail of flames, dealing heavy damage.
Weakness: Dodge at the last moment to avoid the dive and counterattack while it recovers.
Flame Wing Slash
Description: The Phoenix spreads its wings wide and slashes at the player with fire-imbued feathers. This attack covers a wide area.
Weakness: Roll to the side to avoid the slash and create an opening for a quick strike.
Inferno Breath
Description: It breathes a stream of intense fire, causing continuous burn damage to players caught in its path.
Weakness: Stay out of range or use a Fireproof Mantle to reduce damage and attack from behind when the Phoenix is stationary.
Phoenix Rebirth
Description: When its health drops below 30%, the Burning Phoenix regenerates a portion of its health while summoning flames around it.
Weakness: Interrupt this regeneration by using high-damage spells or focus on dodging and waiting until the flames subside before attacking again.
Burning Phoenix Battle Strategy
Defeating the Burning Phoenix requires careful planning and precise execution. Here are the strategies to ensure victory:
Recommended Skills
Equip skills that provide mobility and quick damage output, such as Wind Slash for fast dashes and Lightning Strike to deal substantial burst damage. Ranged abilities like Frost Arrow can help chip away at its health from a distance while avoiding its flame attacks.
Recommended Equipment
Use the Fireproof Mantle to reduce fire damage significantly and wear the Bronze Armor to enhance defense without sacrificing mobility. Weapons like the Ice Spear are particularly effective against the Phoenix due to its elemental weakness to ice.
Tactics
Phase 1
Focus on dodging its Blazing Dive and Flame Wing Slash while landing quick hits after each missed attack. Use Frost-based spells and attacks to slow it down and deal extra damage. Keep your distance during its Inferno Breath attack.
Phase 2
Once the Phoenix’s health drops below 30%, it will enter its regeneration phase. Quickly switch to high-damage abilities to interrupt the Phoenix Rebirth and prevent it from healing. Keep moving and avoid staying in one spot to dodge the flames surrounding it.
