Complete Black Myth: Wukong Medicine Formula List and How to Get Them

Players will engage against numerous bosses in their journey to the West, and some of them will serve as formidable obstacles in your mission. These dangerous foes may be too powerful to take on without some prior preparations, so medicines should be a staple on your build. Fortunately, you can do many things to help your sustainability in battle. 

All Medicine Formula List and Location

Medicine is an in-game consumable that you can pop before and during battle. Some provide HP recovery, while others offer combat enhancements to augment your battle prowess. While most of these can be bought from specific NPCs, it is much more sustainable and efficient if you can craft them by yourself.

However, it would help if you learned the recipes for these concoctions before you craft and use them. You can get the formulas for these things in various ways, like buying or discovering them in containers. Here are all the Black Myth Wukong Medicines and their location:

How to Unlock Medicine Crafting in Black Myth: Wukong

You won’t be able to unlock Medicine Crafting immediately since you’ll need to reach a particular milestone first. You’ll have to complete Xu Dog’s quest in Chapter 2, which automatically opens up the option for you to create your concoctions. You can find this NPC near the Sandgate Village/Village Entrance Shrine.

The quest requires you to fight the miniboss Lang-Li-Guhh-Baw, who ate one of Xu Dog’s formulas. This fight is similar to the frog boss you fought back in Chapter 1, so watch out for its mid-range tongue attack. The only difference between this one and Baw-Li-Guhh-Lang is that it casts lightning-imbued spells. Once you defeat the frog and get the Evil Repelling Medicament Formula, return to Xu Dog to unlock the Medicine Crafting function. Afterward, you can craft consumables from any Shrine or with Xu Dog.
