I’m knee-deep in this game called Wuchang: Fallen Feathers—crazy, right? And bam! Commander Honglan shows up. It’s like, “Whoa, hold up, am I ready for this?” She’s this wall you gotta climb—no skipping it. And once you do, you snag a shiny power-up: the Wei – Combo Force. Pretty rad, right? Plus, there’s this Reverant Temple Key, opening doors to more adventures. Anyway, you gotta fight her to move forward. No shortcuts here.
So, find her lurking around at the Palace Hill shrine, kind of like she owns the place. Yeah, there’s this Buddha statue—clue-in moment. You grab that, do a little puzzle action to drain the lotus pond, and there it is—a whole arena. No idea why, but this part got me thinking about when I lost my keys. Go figure.
Now let’s talk prep. Honglan? She’s human, just like us. No elemental powers or anything, so all the magic? Fair game. Fire’s a winner here. Burns her bad—must be something about flames that makes her squirm. Makes me wonder if she got a thing against barbecue.
Gear up right! Think defense first—like having a raincoat in a storm. Centipede Armor Set is your go-to. Tao Qing sells it, but only after you whack the Blightweaver Great Centipede. Gotta love that name, right?
When it comes to facing her, the weapon choice? Tricky. Longswords are hot stuff for defending—or an Axe if you’re feeling wild. The Lashing Whip Longsword’s a big deal too. Found it at the Mercury Workshop. It’s like, your buddy for the fight. The clash move? A total lifesaver. Sometimes, going axe crazy pays off.
First round with her? It’s like she’s testing your skill level. Expect to hit the ground more than once. But hey, who’s counting mistakes, right? Take note of her patterns, parry if you can. Losing isn’t failing—it’s just training for the inevitable rematch. Classic gamer wisdom, I guess?
Second round? Whoa, now she’s serious. Dual blades out, and she’s spinning like a whirlwind. Keeping up? It’s tough. Dodge, don’t parry. Be agile. Healing is good—just don’t do it right in her face unless you’re itching for a quick trip back to respawn. When she gets frantic, stick close and dodge left. Sometimes you catch a break and nail a good hit. Or not. It’s a grind.
Anyway—yeah, Commander Honglan’s no joke, but patience, a bit of strategy, and some lucky breaks will get you through. Keep calm, keep fighting. You’ll come out on top—or at least learn a thing or two.
