r/wuchanggame

I get killed in 1-2 hits and reading the attacks is so annoying. Bring back the humanoid bosses please. I stopped having fun fighting this thing 3 hours ago.

I tried probably 4 different builds and still no luck, I can barely get a quarter of the way through phase 2.

I hear this game is absolutely amazing and I can't wait to start it. Any tips and tricks or do and don't before I start would be appreciated!!!

I just want to start by saying: what an absolute masterpiece. I can’t believe I slept on this game for so long. It completely surpassed all my expectations and has easily become one of my favourite soulslikes alongside Lies of P.

I genuinely haven’t experienced level design this beautifully crafted since Bloodborne. The atmosphere, exploration and the story was just perfect. The boss fights were also absolutely amazing. Loved the character upgrade mechanic, never seen something like it. For most of the game, it was just me and my longsword.

I do have a couple of gripes, though. The performance on PS5 was rough at times, constant frame drops and noticeably poor resolution during boss fights really hurt the experience. My other issue was how often bosses would run away from you. Sometimes it genuinely felt like I was the boss because I spent half the fight chasing them around the arena.

Overall, though, I absolutely loved this game and I’ll definitely be going for the other endings now.

Defeated the first boss and unlocked the fire arm and his fire ability

Dude this game rocks!! I always wanted to buy it but couldn’t so getting it for free practically is awesome! the combat mechanics are so good! I’m currently using the starter longsword and the spear I found, I love how evasive the movesets are! Took me 2 tries for the first boss since I have a bad habit of the whole parry / block mechanics some souls games have ( I know the axe has a block ability ) but the dodge ability makes me more agile with the Longsword / Spear combos , this game is sweet!! And it’s suppose to get better as a play or harder? sheesh gonna be a fun ride !!

Wuchang 2?

I get that the first boss in a soulslike is supposed to be unwinnable, but I can't even get past the first enemy in the courtyard. I'm not new to soulslikes but this is ridiculous.

I was the Bo Magnus ending away from platinum so I quit & saved before the story teller. I went to back up my save so I didn’t mess it up as I wasn’t sure what I needed to answer. I then go on my cloud thinking that’s where it should be, only for it to load up my previous game cycle right at the end! I’ve tried everything & I haven’t the will to start another run doing all what I’ve just done again. No matter what I try it seems I’ve overwritten this cycle I was literally just playing.

I recently beat the game and got the Jarful of Medicine endings, I attempted to get the better ending with my NG+ run but in an attempt to quickly get through the story I unintentionally neglected getting what I needed for the rings of Samsara.

I remembered not to give the Xuanyangzi the Chisel but had already defeated The Reborn boss and unlocked the main Bo Capital shrine.

Is there any ending I can still get that is better than the one I got?

For any added context I have also already agreed to the storyteller to defeat the Bo Magnus.

just beat bo sorcerer for the first time and i have to say steam chain seems to be really really good against her. slapped on the benediction to heal and the forced turn around gives extra damage. i also used solar leap just so i can be close to her a lot of the time. i think steam chain is really great because aside from damage, it literally just keeps her still for a few seconds and you can not only get backstab damage but you trigger the obliterate attack if you follow up immediately with a regular R2. To top it off as they are getting back up you can get 3 light attacks in.

now if i tried that with the flamebringer (which im trying to like because the weapon model looks so cool) i feel like i would have struggled. that weapon skill on the weapon has this mediocre start up time that just gets me hit a lot.

What set ups did you guys use to make this fight smooth, since it's potentially one of the harder bosses.
