Talk:Wukong (Warframe)/@comment-26594944-20151008135536

Is it just me, or is this warframe really unoriginal compared to what DE has been throwing out lately? I don't mean in terms of the myth behind the character, no that's pretty cool, using a chinese tale to inspire a Wukong warframe is awesome.

But the abilities though...

I don't know what the first ability does so I won't talk about that, but the second ability is just a Nekros Soul Punch, the third is just Ash's Invisibilty, and the final ability using the staff is the only thing original about Wukong. In comparison to the originality displayed by the latest 3 warframes behind Wukong - Chroma, Equinox, and Atlas.

I don't know, I personally feel like they could've made Wukong so much more original and inspired. He knows magic of all the elements, and even Wukong's hairs were magical in the tale, being able to transform into animals and people, and even clones of himself (which was also copied and shown in the Hollywood movie starring Jet Li and Jackie Chan). There was so much material to work with. For example, he targets an enemy, and a clone of them appears, which would be similar to Loki's Decoy, but far more original (and far more powerful) in that the clone is whatever you target instead of just yourself, and also that it's a real entity capable of confusing and damaging foes - and when defeated, poof, transforms back in to the hair falls to the floor.
