Wukong Ring

Play Elden Ring with the Destined One's progression.

Wukong's talent tree. Earn Sparks in the Lands Between (one per level up, two per boss felled) and spend them at any Site of Grace on talents from Black Myth: Wukong: Robust Constitution, Rampant Vigor, Focused Attack, Smashing Force, Borrowed Strength and more. Every name and description comes from your own copy of Wukong, in your language.

Your gear picks your stance. Katanas, straight swords and thrusting swords fight in Thrust Stance; greatswords, axes and hammers in Smash Stance; spears, halberds and twinblades in Pillar Stance. Landing hits builds Focus; a heavy attack spends it on a Focus strike that hits harder the more points you spent. Stance talents only work with matching gear.

Spirits. Resting at grace for the first time and felling bosses binds Wukong spirits (Tribute, Heart Ripper, Faithful Kowtow, Raging Blood...). Each spirit belongs to a stance, so your weapon decides which ones you can wield. Their strength is read from Wukong's own text (slightly, moderately, considerably...) and grows as you strengthen them with Sparks.

How it plays

• Rest at a Site of Grace and press F1 (or L3 on a gamepad) to open the Destined One's Path: arrows / d-pad to browse, Enter / A to learn, R / Y to reset (free) or strengthen a spirit, Esc / B to close.
• A small HUD shows your stance, Focus points, Sparks and equipped spirit.
• A fresh start: every Spark is earned in the Lands Between; your Wukong save is never touched.

Good to know

• Requires Elden Ring 1.17.1 (exe 2.7.1.0) and Black Myth: Wukong installed. Melty sets it all up: before the first Play it opens Black Myth: Wukong for about a minute to read its talent and spirit text, then closes it.
• Single player, offline. Elden Ring starts through ModEngine2 with Easy Anti-Cheat off. Do not take a modded game online.
• Your character is played on a separate save (ER0000.wukongring.sl2), copied from your current save the first time. Your normal save is never written. Wukong progress is kept in %LOCALAPPDATA%\WukongRing.
• No game files from either game are shipped: Wukong's text is read from your install, and talents become private in-memory effects in Elden Ring.
