Why is everyone so surprised?

Atlas got a rework months ago...in preparation for the skins. Wukong got a rework almost out of nowhere, when the 90 days for Equinox prime was rapidly approaching its end.

Two weeks ago I said that the rework had to come from somewhere, so it was unlikely Atlas was going to be the next prime. Unsurprisingly, the Monkey was our next prime. On top of this, the complaints for increased stats are a joke....You're talking to someone who liked Zephyr. A frame composed of an alloy lighter than air, extremely durable, but somehow the armor rating is absolute garbage. Somehow, the armor for the non-prime was stripped so the prime could get a more respectable value of 75 instead of the abysmal 15.

Seriously, I cannot drop this. The Corpus create an Oxium Osprey and it's roughly twice as durable as the standard unit but Zephyr is composed of hundreds of ospreys worth of the stuff and its prime has 39% or the armor of a base rhino, composed or ferrite. Despite that, you're complaining about Wukong's already good stats only being boosted slightly. Seriously? Next you're going to complain that Excalibur Umbra and standard are unreasonable, because you can't earn the prime. It's just silly. If you want those boosted stats so bad, grind for the Arcanes. Arcane Guardian + Zephyr = less of a hot mess. By that logic, Wukong + Arcane Aegis + Arcane Guardian = better than anything else possible.
