In Game Science’sBlack Myth Wukong, upgrading your gear is crucial as players progress through the game, and one essential resource for crafting powerful weapons and items is Refined Iron Sand, which is also needed for upgrading your staff.

But getting your hands on this rare material can be a bit tricky, especially in the early stages and chapters of the game. Players will need to put in some effort to find this resource and explore harder, but with the right approach, it will become easier to gather.
How to get Refined Iron Sand in Black Myth Wukong
One of the best ways to obtain Refined Iron Sand is by defeating bosses and opening loot chests. While it’s a rare drop at the beginning of the game like in Chapter 1, it becomes a bit more common as gamers progress towards the next chapter.
Boss battles often reward players with this material, so taking down tougher enemies is well worth the effort. Loot chests, especially those that are hidden off the main path, can also contain Refined Iron Sand. It’s important to explore each area thoroughly, as these chests are sometimes tucked away in corners players might not initially think to search.

In Chapter 3, players can find a chest containing Refined Iron Sand near the Mirrormire Shrine in the Snowhill Path. Pagoda Realm is another area filled with hidden chests in the same chapter, so explore it thoroughly.

These chests, sometimes made of rough wood or metal, can contain multiple pieces of Refined Iron Sand. Always be on the lookout for these while exploring the game world ofBlack Myth Wukong.
Aside from looting chests and defeating bosses, another reliable method to acquire Refined Iron Sand is purchasing it from the in-game store at Shrines.

Purchasing Refined Iron Sandin Black Myth Wukong
By visiting a Shrine, players can access the store, where Refined Iron Sand is available for 1,200 Will each. However, keep in mind that the store’s stock is limited, so players can’t rely solely on this method to gather large quantities and loot chests and bosses are still the best way to obtain a large amount of these.
In addition to buying from the store,some bosses drop Refined Iron Sand upon defeat, particularly in Chapters 2 and 3.

One notable boss that offers this material is the Yellow Wind Sage, the final boss of Chapter 2. Before facing him, it’s a good idea to visit this chapter’s secret Shrine.

As players progress throughBlack Myth Wukong, Refined Iron Sand will become more accessible, especially if they take the time to explore thoroughly and tackle as many bosses as possible.

Remember to keep a close eye on the Will balance to be able to purchase Refined Iron Sand when needed from the store.
