How to Get Dark Iron Staff in Black Myth: Wukong

Dark Iron Staff is the ultimate version of Cloud-Patterned Stone Staff. The latter can be received only after defeating Shingadang, the hidden boss summoned by collecting six of Buddha's Eyeballs.

The most difficult thing is that these eyeballs are seriously well-hidden throughout the game world. The first two can be discovered near the Squall Hideout Keeper's Shrine. The third one is on a wooden platform that overlooks a Buddha's head. The fourth lies within a cave that can be accessed from the same area as above. The fifth after the defeat of an optional tough enemy, Mother of Stones, which can be found on the left side of the cave entrance. Lastly, the sixth eyeball is near the Rockrest Flat Keeper's Shrine.

After all six eyeballs have been collected, the player should head back to where they fought the Stone Vanguard; a large rock with faces will come up, and the encounter will start with Shingadang. The players will be able to get the Cloud-Patterned Stone Staff for defeating the boss, which later can be upgraded into the Dark Iron Staff.

Dark Iron Staff Is A Strong Weapon

First, one needs to obtain a Cloud-Patterned Stone Staff by visiting any Keeper's Shrine. To upgrade the staff to a Staff of Blazing Karma, one will be needing three Samadhi Fire Crystals from defeated Flint Vanguard, Flint Chief, and Mother of Flamlings.

With the acquisition of the Staff of Blazing Karma, one could start the creation of an item by using the following materials: 

• Golden Tree Core x4

• Kun Steel x2

• The Bull King's Iron Horn x2

The Bull King's Iron Horn would fall after the Bishui Golden-Eyed Beast had been beaten.

With all of the above components, which are already prepared, players can then create the feared Dark Iron Staff. This strong weapon comes with an attack of 110 and has 5% burn resistance. Its special effect greatly enhances its attack power according to the character's defense and therefore is highly optimal for most characters that balance offense and defense.

The Dark Iron Staff goes nice with the Bull King Armor Set; this gives a very good defense boost, which makes it absolutely deadly in an adventurer's hands.
