Wo Long Fallen Dynasty: How To Beat Zhang Rang

Clones, Lightning Attacks & what not - Zhang Rang has got tons of attacks up his sleeve!

Wo Long Fallen Dynasty portrays Zhang Rang as a boss character of great power, who the protagonist and their team must overcome. To take down Zhang Rang, Cao Cao NPC joins the player in the critical mission of the Fall of the Corrupted Eunuch, where they confront and defeat him.

In the course of the boss battle, Zhang Rang displays his supernatural capabilities by dividing into multiple phantom versions before launching attacks on his adversaries. The battle also reveals that Zhang Rang has already transformed into a non-human entity as a result of his unquenchable thirst for power and riches due to his use of the Elixir.

Key Takeaways

  • One of the unique aspects of the boss fight is the presence of clones.
  • He summons these clones at the start of the fight, and when his health is around 50%, the clones give Zhang Rang a buff and can use some of the same attacks as him.
