Black Myth: Wukong

One of the most important skill trees in Black Myth: Wukong is the Survival skill tree, which can be invested in to increase the base stats of the player. While there are other ways of increasing your base stats, such as using Mind Core, players should aim to greatly increase most of their base stats early on as they will serve as the foundation for your build.

Many of the survival skills will need to be unlocked by leveling up many times. One of the first ones available is Bane Mitigation, which reduces the duration of Four Banes effects; here's exactly what that means and what the skill does.

What Are The Four Banes In Black Myth: Wukong

The Four Banes are the four stats effects players will encounter throughout their journey.

Burn
Shock
Poison
Chill

Each Status effect will negatively impact the player in some way should they build up and go into effect, and Bane Mitigation focuses on how long the status effect stays active. In the bottom right of the screen under your health bar will be the status effect icon that will fill up as you are hit with attacks inflicting that status ailment. Once the icon is full, that Bane will go into effect until it is either healed or wears off. With each rank in Bane Mitigation, the duration all Banes are in effect will go down. While this helps deal with status effects, players can also increase their resistance to those effects to keep them from happening in the first place.

Soaks	Various soaks can give brief boosts in status resistance for a short time after being used.
Armor	Some armor pieces have additional status resistances on top of the defense.
Mind Core	Mind Cores can be spent to increase the player's base resistance to a status effect.

Should You Invest Points In Bane Mitigation

While it may sound good to have these Banes in effect for shorter amounts of time, there are better options for your Sparks. There are ways to resist and even cure Banes once they are in effect, and the difference from Bane Mitigation isn't enough to make the skill worth investing multiple Sparks into. Bane Mitigation does have multiple levels with the final level offering a noticeable change, though not enough to warrant the number of Sparks needed. Luckily, if you did invest some Sparks into Bane Mitigation, they can be respeced and invested into a better option.
