Gold Armored Rhino Boss Guide: Defeat the Mythical Beast in Black Myth Wukong
Gold Armored Rhino Overview
The Gold Armored Rhino is a formidable boss in Black Myth: Wukong, located at the Rhino Watch Slope. This area can be reached after acquiring the Flying Nimbus from the Supreme Inspector. Players need to navigate through the Foothills area, following the lightning strikes from the distance, to reach the battlefield. The Rhino’s arena is expansive, offering plenty of room to maneuver, but its aggressive nature requires players to be constantly vigilant and prepared for rapid, heavy attacks. Defeating the Gold Armored Rhino rewards players with the coveted Gold Suozi Armor, one of the most powerful armors in the game.
Gold Armored Rhino Attack Patterns
Understanding the Gold Armored Rhino’s attack patterns is crucial to successfully defeating this boss:
Heavy Melee Attacks
Description: The Rhino initiates the fight with a series of powerful melee attacks that can quickly drain your health if not dodged effectively.
Weakness: Dodge to the sides or backwards, waiting for the Rhino to finish its combo before counterattacking.
Shockwave Charge
Description: The Rhino charges forward, creating a shockwave that can inflict the Shock status, amplifying the damage you take from subsequent attacks.
Weakness: Maintain a safe distance and dodge sideways when the Rhino charges to avoid both the charge and the shockwave effect.
Horn Regeneration and Attack
Description: After its horn is broken, the Rhino regenerates it and prepares for another powerful attack.
Weakness: Use ranged attacks or abilities to keep pressure on the Rhino while maintaining a safe distance to avoid its regenerated horn attack.
Armored Defense

Weakness: Focus on building your Focus Meter and use a heavy attack on the Rhino’s horn to break its armor and expose its vulnerable points.
Gold Armored Rhino Battle Strategy
To defeat the Gold Armored Rhino, players need to employ a combination of defensive tactics and strategic offense:
Recommended Skills
- Equip skills that allow for quick evasion and counterattacks, such as Shadow Step.
- Utilize ranged abilities like Wandering Wight’s Spirit Attack to help break the Rhino’s defenses and reduce the risk of close combat encounters.
Recommended Equipment
- Equip high-defense armor sets, especially those that provide resistance to the Shock status.
- Use weapons enhanced with damage-boosting attributes to break the Rhino’s armor faster and reduce the fight duration.
Tactics
Phase 1: Breaking the Rhino’s Armor
- The initial goal is to break the Rhino’s armor by focusing attacks on its horn. Build up the Focus Meter and execute heavy attacks on the horn to shatter the armor temporarily. Repeat this process as the horn regenerates, and attack the Rhino’s exposed areas for significant damage.
Phase 2: Dodging and Counterattacking
- As the Rhino becomes more aggressive, it will start using faster and more frequent charge attacks. Keep your distance and dodge carefully to avoid taking damage. Wait for moments when the Rhino rears up on its hind legs to dodge and deliver counterattacks. Use spells and ranged attacks during these moments to maximize damage output.
