Wukong Tips
It is recommended to use his dashes to enter combat, rather than fleeing, as he gains Attack Speed briefly after dashing. His kit is primarily based around damage and movement, and so a support character would be an ideal duo.
Sometimes dubbed as ‘Wuky’, he is known to have busted movement if he uses his hold dash ability and glider at peak speed. In this case, the glider holds its peak speed until released, allowing Wukong to catch up to fleeing foes quite easily.
Holding left click for Flurry is useful if against groups in a cone in front of Wukong; otherwise, against single targets, it is best to use his 3-tap left-click combo.
While he perches on trees, he becomes hidden, which is extremely useful when fleeing. Another good feature of using trees is that Dragon Slam is automatically mostly charged up, meaning players can use trees to skip some of the staff perch times. You don’t need to dash into trees to perch on them.
Using abilities while Wukong’s cloning ability (his ultimate) is in use also allows his clones to use the ability as well, so for burst damage in the middle to late game, it is recommended to:
Perch > Six Monkey Strike > Dragon Slam
Quickly to avoid a widespread while having short charge-up times.
Wukong Abilities
PASSIVE
His passive is Treetop Acrobat, this is one of the few environmental adaptations, where he has the ability to perch on top of trees by jumping against them. Perching on a tree Resets Cloud Somersault (His Dash ability) and reduces Glider Heat. While Perched on a tree, enemies lose sight of Wukong.
LMB [PRIMARY ATTACK]
His Primary attack is with his weapon, the Black Iron Rod, which if Left click is tapped 3 times, this does a quick combo that gives Wukong quick bursts of movement towards the enemy.
Hold LMB to give out a flurry of attacks that end with a heavy strike, while doing the Flurry, Wukong is slowed.
RMB
His Right click ability is Perch / Dragon Slam. This is a two press activation ability. The first press makes Wukong perch on his Staff, as it extends in length and increases the range of the slam on the second press.
The second right-click casts Dragon Slam, where Wukong slams his staff, dealing damage and Stunning enemies in the Center. If they are over the abyss, they are instantly killed. If on the edge, they are slowed and dealt extra damage.
Shift
Pressing the Dash key (Shift) activates his dash ability, Cloud Somersault. Where a quick press would give Wukong a quick dash, holding and releasing the dash ability allows Wukong to somersault through the air, after use of this ability, Wukong gains primary Attack Speed.
Q Ability
His Q ability is Ambush then Spin Attack. Where the first press transforms Wukong into a Tree that self-heals. On the second press, Wukong leaves the disguise and performs a spin attack, dealing heavy damage in a circular area of effect (AoE). If pressed twice in quick succession, the disguise stage is skipped.
Ultimate Ability
Wukong’s Ultimate ability is the Six-Monkey Stike, where he disappears, becoming untargetable. before splitting into 5 clones that dash and attack in all directions. While vanished, players can control the real Wukong using the mouse cursor. This is essentially an AoE attack centralised where Wukong is at the time of using the Ultimate.
