Black Myth: Wukong – Captain Kalpa Wave Boss Fight Breakdown

Difficulty Level: High. Dense pattern layering, long-range pressure, and sudden close-quarters shifts make the fight punishing without strict timing discipline. Where to Find: Positioned on the storm-beaten deck of the Abandoned War Vessel anchored offshore, accessed after clearing the flooded passage beneath the coastal outpost. Technique to Use Against Him: His wave-form attacks follow a strict pulse rhythm. Roll through the second pulse of each shockwave to avoid the third, which carries the real damage. When he channels his tidal surge, flank instead of retreating; his forward sweep covers the full lane. Punish only after his water-form dash ends with a brief stagger. Interruptive abilities break his charged crest strike if timed early. Map Guide to Boss Location: Move through the coastal outpost’s submerged tunnels, climb onto the anchored war vessel, and reach the upper deck where Kalpa Wave commands the battlefield. In-Game Lore About This Boss: A former naval captain whose spirit fused with remnants of a drowned fleet. His mastery over water essence turned into a cycle of perpetual tide-bound rage. He embodies a distorted will to protect a crew long lost to the depths. Reward for Defeating Him: Water-aligned refinement materials, a core strengthening fluid-movement skills and elemental resistance, and passage into the vessel’s sealed inner hold.
