Well, we are about to test this theory out on the Great Sage’s Broken Shell NG ++. I have appreciated your build guides for a long time with Div2 and glad to see you playing Wukong!
When I found this common armor set. I automatically used the fan and the dark staff. I got my defense up to 888 with my attack being 270+, I'm sure both can get higher I just have tried just yet. I wish the game had load-outs. Hopefully they place that in the DLC or patch
jsut wanna share my experience, you get oneshot no matte armor set in NG+++ and beyond, I tries the Bullking also the secret armor set, does not matter :) Yes you get more raw dmg, but are still one/2 shot any way
@@vicmacky1504 yes that’s a great idea… But remember I mentioned that I purposely put myself in a bad situation to demonstrate the dominance & formidable nature of the build
try poison/thunder build.. head : iron bull, chest: the one that cause thunder bane from perfect dodge.. arms : the one that cause poison bane on crit feet : iron bull things can be changed to weapon to crit one helmet to easily dodge one feet to thunder dmg one inflicting 2 banes on bosses
@@aimccain83 you have to keep the light attack button held down, and keep it held while hitting the heavy attack to perform the tactical retreat… Rinse and repeat
been using this effect on this armor for almost a full run with all relics unlocked all well and good till the last wukong boss battle where he takes the relics away from you
@@iDentityUS maybe , but otherwise I'm fully onboard with everything you said in this video I was wondering if anyone else would notice the awesome synergy between the armor set and that particular staff
@@darran311 appreciate that! & I’m a little annoyed that I never got the Gold Spiked Plate Curio until after my third NG+ playthrough, so I’ll only be able to have 2. Can you play more than 4 NG+?
@@iDentityUS my crazy friend Dan is on cycle 10 , be warned I'm pretty sure enemies continue to get stronger after you don't anymore I saw him get killed in two hits by wondering whit
Something I have not tested but I wonder - IF he's absorbing our relics, right? And you have, say, all 3 abilities unlocked for each one, does HE get gimped if we DE-ACTIVATE THEM before that part of the fight? Someone should try, parse maybe his light hit damage (since one ability increases that), parse his HP, and try again with all of the activated when you go in.
Bull king swaps Perfect dodge for tenacity which lets you tank attacks while still getting your attacks out. Then the black iron staff gives you 5 attack per 30 defense boosting your attack to over 250 easily.
King bull along with spellbinder is my fav. Build atm in the higher new game+ im a button smasher i luv that i wont be interrupted on my combos and i feel its easier to activate "see thro"(that red glow is beautiful with the extra damage ❤) For hard bosses example, erlang and sage i use resurrection pill along with "life strands " i pretty much just beat them down
Yeah this build has carried me all the way to Ng+++++++. Not going any further though. Bull King is only good in the early play throughs. Anything after Ng++++ will destroy you. Tenacity will get you murdered... Lol
Maybe you should add that this only really becomes relevant after completing your third run. Of course it works before that as well but to get its full value you need to complete the game three times with beating Erlang. I’m on my fourth run and I have 883 Defense and 302base attack. I’m using 3 agate jars and 2 gold spikeplates. I’m currently playing to get the third one from chapter three because I didn’t know I should get it again on my 2nd run
U are not lieing i got this set realized it in ng+3 and with all the curos giving more defesnse i have currently now 827 defense and using the dark staff nothing is better now the look i do prefer the the bull king armor look but the defense difference at my current lvl btw these to is just 60 points and i have 4 spike plates and 2 jars all boosting defense and it made no enemy a problem except the really end game bosses and it still aint that bad oh my lvl is 316
@@givemeverything I’m jealous! I need this Curios, didn’t realize they were a thing until NG+++. Maybe I’ll go past 6 NG+ but I’m not sure if I want to do that
@iDentityUS i didnt kbow neithe but my main goal was to nake my defense higher i went to the merchant redid my attributes and max my defense health and mana then I kept going to that tall dude in the snow when ur doing the spell binder quest right next to when udo the ring of fire and got one each run now i got 4spike plates and 2 jars then the bull king armor and dark staff have npcs and some bosses looking like fouls even bodying the broken shell and Lang but I'm still playing and waiting for a challenge also fight the tiger at the hub gave me 5 slots Oh my set up is immobilize shadow step and transformation and the iron ball but I also noticed if u use spell binder shit u are really maxing out damage then
Nice, there is a spirit that gives more defense +45 , hits harder than the wandering wight but reduces attack by 10 i think it's the top takes bottom, i need to check if the -10 damage are compensated by the 15 extra defence from the iron staff that would make it worth it
@@iDentityUS yea i agree, but if the staff conversion rate is better than the loss value that would be worth i guess I just got to chapter 3 on my 3rd playthrough so i'll try to test it with the bullset for now the tenacity while staffspinning to get 4points then on thrust stance the roll charged that goes instantly
@lordbandi9804 if you run 3 that attack damage is 272 with Wandering Wight (big head). I don't have any other curios attached. Defense is 873, this all with the common armor set
Not at all a fan of thrust stance (because you must stand still to charge heavies, which is a huge disadvantage IMO) but yes, from NG+++ on, you first of all NEED crazy defense because bosses hit very hard - harder each time through - and have more HP - which means you need to have more durability to survive longer unless you're able to perfectly dodge everything which, let's be honest, you WIll get hit - and IF you have, say, 4 golden spike plates, all relics unlocked, etc, you SHOUlD be able to hit 900+ defense (also, everyone, REMEMBER, meds are there for a reason - USE the damage mitigation meds, USE the attack meds, USE the meds to give you might so you can transform more - I see so many videos where people struggle so much and lose over and over and seem to 100% forget you CAN use them). Maybe it's a pride thing, I don't know, but swallow the pride and USE them. An extra 10% damage reduction is a GOOD thing. USE it. AlSO, you can raise your defense permanently further in the transformations part of the menu - I thought initially it meant that transformed FORM would get the boost, but no, it gets added to your BASE defense. Now, defense doesn't DO much in this game sadly and need a ton to do much, but hey, 900 vs 700 defense, you're looking at, on a big hit, maybe 40 or 50 less damage, so maybe 5% to 7% less of your HP bar taken, which adds up if you take 10 hits like that, AND at the same time - unlike the moon rabbit / sun crow combo - that damage reduction AlSO has the bonus of raising your attack more with the dark iron staff.
Thrust stance is a matter of adjusting to flow, smash is my favorite. For fun equip the tri point spear and travel to thunderclap temple for durable targets. As long as you have that stance maxed this is a great place for it since people have trouble perfect dodging the monks
The best advice I can offer is to slow down and learn his patterns… every boss has one and sometimes they switch it up and do something random. But if you can learn their patterns you will then understand the attack windows. You will eventually get it
Dude I'm awful at souls likes keep trying, 1 tip certain roars etc sounds can help determine the attacks coming keep trying u will get eventually, really love this wukong game
Idk if you’ll see this but I’m on Cycle 4 and even w this build Im getting one shot, I swapped to a straight up crit build to try and kill before I get killed but man a defensive build that can survive the later cycles would be awesome
What is your overall level? I'm just going to max everything I can slowly through my first playthrough. Currently level 88 and starting chapter 4, I've only been working on foundation and martial arts but been having a fairly easy time without powers leveled up.

The bull king armour is actually misstranslated on the second perk, its not below half it above half
I noticed that as well, thanks for pointing it out ✌🏽

Yeah his is a lot better cause you can still perfect dodge. Bull King set disables it and I personally don't like it.
My guy needs to get the true ending 2 more times.
Wukong's staff hits harder than my Monday mornings.
You got a sub, just the effort to make this video, plus the game. Thanks for the put up bro.

@@vicmacky1504 yes that’s a great idea… But remember I mentioned that I purposely put myself in a bad situation to demonstrate the dominance & formidable nature of the build
try poison/thunder build.. head : iron bull,
chest: the one that cause thunder bane from perfect dodge..
arms : the one that cause poison bane on crit
feet : iron bull
things can be changed to
weapon to crit one
helmet to easily dodge one
feet to thunder dmg one
inflicting 2 banes on bosses
Definitely trying this
You MUST!
@@iDentityUS I’m thinking about starting ng+2…
I’m on my first play through on chapter 3, which epic staff should I craft? The Rat king or the Loon pathway?
Loong because you’ll need it to craft the mythical loong weapon after defeating all 4 loong bosses.
@@aimccain83 Loong is pretty good
Also how do you continuously hit with the pokes in the thrust stance?

Do you think it would be good to run on NG1?
@@MyLazyEye23 of course, make sure to grab the secret armor from chapter 6 then stack your armor as much as you can while using the Dark Iron Staff
Tbf I think it’s better with a spellbinder build, you can boost your stats way higher
It is, at the sacrifice of your other abilities. Though you need to upgrade it all the way for it to be worth it.
Or first play through?
You have to NG+ First
Wukong's Armor with 3 Gold Spike is straight up 888 defense and you can still use your perfect dodge when needed. Bull King goes up to 831.
Bull king swaps Perfect dodge for tenacity which lets you tank attacks while still getting your attacks out. Then the black iron staff gives you 5 attack per 30 defense boosting your attack to over 250 easily.
