Discover all weapon locations in Black Myth: Wukong, including Common, Uncommon, Rare, Epic, and Legendary tiers. Learn how to obtain and craft each weapon with detailed stats and recipes.
This guide details the locations and acquisition methods for various weapons in Black Myth: Wukong, categorized by rarity: Common, Uncommon, Rare, Epic, and Legendary. Crafting is a key mechanic, available at any Shrine after obtaining the necessary recipes, with the first recipe unlocked after defeating the Whiteclad Noble boss in Chapter 1.
To craft weapons, players must first acquire a recipe. As they progress, new recipes will either upgrade existing weapon trees or unlock entirely new ones. To craft an upgrade, players expand the weapon tree, select the desired upgrade, and gather the required materials and currency. Some material requirements may initially be unknown (indicated by ????), but can be identified by consulting the weapon lists below.
Crafting is performed at a Shrine by selecting "Craft" and then "Craft Weapons".
Common Weapon Locations
The only Common Weapon is the Willow Wood Staff, which is the player's starting weapon. As players unlock more weapons, some will branch off from this initial staff.
Uncommon Weapon Locations
The first upgrade to the Willow Wood Staff is the Twin Serpents Staff, obtained in Chapter 1 after defeating a main boss. The second Uncommon weapon is exclusive to players who purchased the Deluxe Edition of the game.
