Did Riot just take WUKONG's Passive and apply it on a new ITEM?:

Wukong's passive is already a mastery so why not

I was looking for this. Legendary Guardian is already a mastery in the depths of a tree he'll never reach anyway. Why's this being noticed now?

Honestly, I clicked on this post to find out what his passive was lol.

Yes, although Kong will hate the item most likely. The active, while vastly increasing his hp, would come at the cost of his damage, which is a large chunk of his value as a champion come teamfight time. May be used as a last resort after ulting to stay alive if they survive his ult, but he could just take something that would make it more likely that he kills the enemy. Or use the new GA, thanks to the fact it gives AD and armor.

People think he got true damage cause of "Q" reduces armor, + lethality + LW + cleaver = no more armor for enemies.

Skins Project1 votes

No...

I legit thought he had true dmg... I was reallllly tired...

Idk....

Lmao

nope, he was not lucky enough to get True damage of any kind. Now if he gets worked on in the Diver update, who knows what could happen.

For some reason I thought he had a small amount in his kit somewhere.

Master Yi does, maybe you were thinking of him?

Skins Project1 votes

No...

I was thinking that Wu's enhanced aa had it for some reason...

you can always use the item just before u die or when ur job is done.

It's doubling your current health, so using it just before death doesn't actually help you all that much, you just wasted a 90 second cooldown to last a moment longer.

The sad thing is it's slightly better then his passive since all together it gives you 80 Armor and MR for 3 champs while Wukong needs 5 champs at max level for the passive to get that much :L

Thats why I think juggernauts/fighters will outclass many after the tanks update, with the new items ofc.

Dunno about 'sad'. Why should a free passive be better than an item?

Blue Moon Wolf1 votes

When your passive has become so boring that Riot literally adds a version of it to an item, not even changing the name, Riot is pretty much saying your passive is boring (and that's not even counting the fact there is already a worse version of it as a mastery as well) . The fact it's a better version of it is just salt in the wound.

Its not for Wukong... Its shitty for him, his active isn't good on wu.

But after Wu mastery a wu item [zombie-brand-mindblown]

Blue Moon Wolf2 votes

yes, but none of those flat out take the name of the champs passives. They may as well change the name from Gargoyles stone plate to Wukong's stone plate.

Blades in Exile1 votes

Well a gargoyle is a stone statue and Wukong right now is a stone statue come to life so...

Azteryz1 votes

they said when the diver update happens wukong and aatrox are the first people they thought of giving changes to

which is fair considering the monkey king could have a more unique and interesting passive besides "more armor and mr per champ"

invisiblecat11 votes

Wow If you play wukong with this item, and the mastery, then you will get 95 bonus MR and Armor when every enemy is nearby

did u cry about CotC too

also, 'take' means the initial owner does not have it anymore
