1) Thunderflame Seal

The Thunderflame Seal considerably increases the maximum amount of Mana you have. Mana is consumed any time you use a spell, and you’ll be using a ton of spells during your time with this game. Unlike Stamina and Health, you don’t have any way of getting your Mana back apart from resting at a Keeper’s Shrine.

Due to this, you need to stack all the Mana you can. The Thunderflame Seal helps you with this issue, making it one of the best Curios in Black Myth Wukong.

Enemies in Black Myth Wukong hit hard. More often than not, you will have to find something to make their attacks hurt a little less. This is where the Jade Moon Rabbit Curio comes in. When equipped, your Damage Reduction will be slightly boosted. This is especially useful in boss fights and can even help you get over certain roadblocks.

However, you can’t get your hands on the Jade Moon Rabit till you beat an optional boss found near the Purifying Springs in Chapter 4.

Maitreya’s Orb has a fairly simple function. While equipped, landing enough successful hits on an enemy will allow you to survive the next fatal blow. However, the exact number of hits required isn't specified, so you might have to leave a couple of things hanging on luck.

Maitreya’s Orb can be found in Chapter 3. You will find it near two enemies inside a cave shortly after you’ve had your first encounter with the Non-White bosses.

The Amber Prayer Beads are perhaps the best Curios in Black Myth Wukong. This Curio moderately increases the speed at which you build up Focus points. Now, most of your time in combat is spent trying to build up Focus points to land Heavy Attacks. With the Amber Prayer Beads, this becomes a fairly easy task.

At times, just a couple of Light Attack Combos are enough to bring you up to two Focus points. With this Curio, you won’t have to take any unnecessary risks to build up your Focus points, making it an excellent pick. This Curio can be found inside the cave, right after the Father of Stones boss.

The Backscratcher Curio can considerably increase your Maximum Stamina. Your most important actions in combat, attacking and dodging are tied to Stamina, so getting a considerable Stamina boost can go a long way towards helping you overcome the toughest enemies that this game has to throw at you.

The importance of Stamina makes the Back Scratcher one of the best Curios in Black Myth Wukong. You can buy the Back Scratcher Curio from the Black Mountain Keeper’s Shrine after you’ve finished Chapter One.
