Wukong

• Wukong summons and extends his Iron Staff up to 5 / 6 / 8 / 10 meters in the direction of the HUD's targeting reticle, inflicting 500 / 600 / 700 / 800 Impact damage to a single enemy along its path. The damaged enemy is forcefully ragdolled, and enemies within 1.25 / 1.5 / 1.75 / 2 meters of Iron Jab's point of impact suffer a knockdown.
• Damage is affected by Ability Strength and certain mods.
  • As an example, with a maxed Pressure Point, Shocking Touch and Intensify, the normal attacks of a rank-3 Iron Jab will deal
    Base Damage × (1 + Damage Mods) × (1 + Elemental Mods) × (1 + Strength Mods) =
    800 × (1 + 1.2) × (1 + 0.9) × (1 + 0.3) = 4,347.2 damage.
  • Iron Jab is also affected by equipped melee mods including:
    • damage (e.g., Steel Charge)
    • impact (e.g., Heavy Impact)
    • elemental damage (e.g., Shocking Touch)
    • weapon augments (e.g., Justice Blades)
    • Riven
  • Manticore's damage bonus applies to the ability.
  • Iron Jab is not affected by the equipped melee weapon's stats and innate effects, class-specific mods (e.g., Covert Lethality), or Acolyte Mods.
    • The only exceptions to this rule are:
      • Mire and its passive ability to grant +10% Toxin damage, which carries over to Iron Jab. The toxin damage combines with any elemental damage from melee elemental mods.
      • Iron Jab's damage is affected by Venka Prime's modified Melee Combo Counter.
  • Iron Jab hits add to the Melee Combo Counter.
  • Impact radius is affected by Ability Range, while the staff range is not.
• Iron Jab does not require an enemy target to be cast.
• Enemies affected by Iron Jab are temporarily highlighted.
• Unlike with Slash Dash, Iron Jab does not gain any benefits if Primal Fury is active.
• Iron Jab hits can damage enemies across the Rift Plane.
• Iron jab is affected by and can trigger Warframe Arcanes.

• Maximized Ability Duration has no positive effects on this ability.
  • Reduces range to 0.68 meters.
• Maximized Ability Efficiency reduces cost to 6.25 energy.
  • Has no negative effects on this ability.
• Maximized Ability Range increases range to 5.6 meters.
  • Reduces damage to 320.
• Maximized Ability Strength increases damage to 3296.
  • Without Energy Conversion and Growing Power, increases damage to 2696.
  • Increases cost to 38.75 energy.

• Equipping Blast damage on Wukong's melee weapon will increase Iron Jab's force of impact immensely (i.e., sends enemies flying across the map) even if the damage is nonlethal.
• The impact radius doesn't always work, sometimes affecting only the initial target.

• Upon losing all of his health, Wukong is healed up to 45% / 50% / 65% / 75% of his maximum health and gains invulnerability for 2 / 3 / 4 / 5 seconds. As a consequence, Wukong loses 50% / 40% / 30% / 25% of his current energy.
  • Health restoration and energy reduction are not affected by Ability Strength.
  • The amount of health restored diminishes with each subsequent death while Defy is active. As an example, if Wukong has his health reduced to zero a total of three times while Defy is active, a rank-3 Defy will restore 0.75^1 = 75%, 0.75^2 = 56.25%, and 0.75^3 = 42.188% of his maximum health for each respective death.
    • Upon reaching the 19th iteration, Wukong's health would be reduced to 0.75^19 = 0.423%, instead of which he will die regardless of the energy left, disregarding mods like Quick Thinking, due to his health being rounded to 0%.
    • The subsequent health reduction applies to the current uninterrupted active toggle of Defy. Toggling off the ability and then reactivating it will refresh the health restoration to its maximum percentage.
  • The energy reduction applies to Wukong's current energy at the time his health is depleted. As an example, if Wukong has 100 energy when his health reaches zero while Defy is active, a rank-3 Defy will reduce his current energy to 100 × (1 - 0.25) = 75.
    • The energy reduction does not apply to Wukong's total energy capacity. If Wukong at max rank has a total energy capacity of 300 with a maxed Flow, Defy will not alter that capacity—only Wukong's current supply of energy is affected.
  • Invulnerability duration is affected by Ability Duration.
• Defy drains 5 energy per second while active and will remain active until Wukong's energy is depleted, or the ability is deactivated by pressing the ability key again (default 2 ).
  • Activation energy cost is affected by Ability Efficiency, and the energy drain is affected by Ability Efficiency and Ability Duration.
  • Wukong cannot replenish energy using Energy Siphon or Team Energy Restores while Defy is active but can replenish energy using Energy Orbs, Orokin Void Death Orb energy restores, Rage, or Hunter Adrenaline.

• Wukong's Defy keeps him alive longer if the player has Rage or Hunter Adrenaline equipped.
  • Health mods such as Vitality or Gladiator Resolve alongside a reliable supplementary healing method such as  Arcane Grace will guarantee immortality so long as the player avoids ability-nullifying enemies, does not fall off of the map, and does not run out of energy.

• Maximized Ability Duration increases invulnerability duration to 15.3 seconds and reduces channeling cost to 1.63 energy per second.
  • Has no negative effects on this ability.
• Maximized Ability Efficiency reduces activation cost to 12.5 energy and channeling cost to 1.25 energy per second.
  • Reduces invulnerability duration to 2 seconds
• Maximized Ability Range has no positive effects on this ability.
  • Has no negative effects on this ability.
• Maximized Ability Strength has no positive effects on this ability.
  • Increases activation cost to 77.5 energy and channeling cost to 10.69 energy per second.
  • Reduces invulnerability duration to 3.63 seconds

• If health is reduced to 3 points from maximum health restoration, you die if Defy is activated again.

• Wukong disappears into a cloud and hides himself from enemy view for 10 / 15 / 20 / 25 seconds. In this form, Wukong is invulnerable and gains the ability to move freely in empty space including vertical movement. While Cloud Walker is active, one point of energy is drained for every 1 / 1.5 / 2 / 2.5 meters traveled. Cloud Walker will end if Wukong runs out of energy, if the ability duration ends, or if deactivated by pressing the ability key again (default 3 ). Upon activation and deactivation, enemies within 5 / 6 / 7 / 8 meters of Wukong are temporarily stunned.
  • Duration is affected by Ability Duration.
  • Stun radius is affected by Ability Range.
  • Distance per energy is affected by Ability Efficiency.
  • Stunned enemies are open to melee finishers (default E ).
  • Unalerted enemies staggered by Cloud Walker remain unalerted during the stagger animation, and thus can engage Stealth Kill Affinity Bonuses when killed.
  • The distance traveled for every point of energy uses the following expression when accounting for Ability Efficiency:
    Modified Distance Per Energy = Distance Per Energy ÷ (2 − Ability Efficiency)
    • With a maxed Streamline, a rank-3 Cloud Walker will drain one point of energy for every 2.5 ÷ 0.7 = 3.571 meters traveled.
  • Energy Siphon is not deactivated while Cloud Walker is active; however, Wukong is not immune to energy drain from Energy Leech Eximus auras.
  • While Wukong is invulnerable in Cloud Walker, his Companion is still susceptible to damage from explosions.
• While Cloud Walker is active, Wukong has reduced movement speed and is unable to attack enemies, activate other abilities, and interact with environmental objects and pickups. Defy and Primal Fury can be deactivated while in Cloud Walker.
• Cloud Walker confers immunity to status effects when passing through Grineer and Corpus energy defenses like Sensor Bars and Laser Barriers respectively. However, passing through said defenses in Spy Data Vaults will still activate the Vault's alarms.
  • The area stagger upon exiting or entering Cloud Walker will alarm any Security Cameras within range, triggering a Data Vault alarm.

Main article: Enveloping Cloud

Wukong is a Warframe Augment Mod for Wukong's Cloud Walker that gives allies near the cloud temporary invisiblity.

• An equipped Sentinel with Vacuum will still collect nearby items and hold onto them for you to collect when Cloud Walker ends, similar to Hydroid's Undertow.

  • Damage is distributed between 85% Impact damage and 15%, Puncture damage.
  • Wall attacks inflict 167 / 208 / 333 / 417 damage.
  • Slide attacks inflict 214 / 267.5 / 428 / 536 damage.
  • Aerial attacks and slam attacks inflict 200 / 250 / 400 / 500 damage, and slam attacks inflict an additional 150 Impact damage with a 10% status chance within 3 meters.
• Attacks have a 200% critical multiplier with a 25% critical chance and a 10% status chance.
• Damage is affected by Ability Strength, the Melee Combo Counter and most mods.
  • As an example, with a maxed Pressure Point, Shocking Touch and Intensify, the normal attacks of a rank-3 Primal Fury will deal
    Base Damage × (1 + Damage Mods) × (1 + Elemental Mods) × (1 + Strength Mods) =
    250 × (1 + 1.2) × (1 + 0.9) × (1 + 0.3) = 1,358.5 damage.
  • The mods that affect Iron Staff include:
    • damage (e.g., Steel Charge)
    • physical damage (e.g., Jagged Edge)
    • elemental damage (e.g., Shocking Touch)
    • faction (e.g., Smite Corpus)
    • channeling (e.g., Life Strike)
    • Critical chance and critical multiplier (e.g., True Steel and Organ Shatter)
    • Status chance (e.g., Melee Prowess and Vicious Frost)
    • Attack speed (e.g., Fury and Berserker)
    • range (e.g., Primed Reach)
    • Condition Overload
    • Drifting Contact
    • Healing Return
    • Shattering Impact
      • While officially Set Mod bonuses do not affect Exalted Weapons, the effect of Gladiator Mods still apply, as long as they aren’t equipped on Iron Staff itself and the Melee Combo Counter rank is above 1x.
  • Melee range mods affect Primal Fury's initial reach but do not affect the radius of slam attacks.
  • Iron Staff can not be equipped with weapon augments (e.g., Justice Blades), class-specific mods (e.g., Covert Lethality), Melee Combo Counter Mods (except Drifting Contact), or Acolyte Mods (e.g., Blood Rush).
  • Riven Mods are not generated for Iron Staff.
  • Primal Fury's combo counter decay is affected by Power Spike.
  • Radial damage from slam attacks diminishes with distance, does not have a critical chance, is not affected by the Melee Combo Counter, and will stagger enemies within range.
  • Ground finishers inflict 300% of the total modified damage from normal attacks. Prompted Finishers inflict 2400% of the total modified damage from normal attacks as True damage.
    • The damage composition of a ground finisher is the same as a modified normal attack.
    • The finisher multipliers for both attacks are affected by Finishing Touch.
  • Each attack adds to the Melee Combo Counter; however, radial damage from slam attacks does not.
• Melee range bonus is affected by Ability Range and the Melee Combo Counter. The melee range bonus stacks additively with melee range mods.
  • The range bonus is calculated using the following formula:
    Range Bonus = 1 + 0.2 × (1 + Range Mods) × (Combo Counter Rank - 1) + Melee Range Mods
    • As an example, with a Melee Combo Counter rank of 3 and a maxed Stretch and Reach, a rank-3 Primal Fury will have a melee range bonus of
      1 + (0.2 × 1.45 × 2) + 0.6 = 218%
• Wukong is unable to use any other weapon while Primal Fury is active but can use all other abilities.
• Primal Fury is affected by and can trigger Warframe and Exodia Arcanes.
• Primal Fury drains 3 energy per second while active and will remain active until Wukong's energy is depleted, or the ability is deactivated by pressing the ability key again.
  • Activation energy cost is affected by Ability Efficiency, and the energy drain is affected by Ability Efficiency and Ability Duration.
  • Wukong cannot replenish energy using Energy Siphon, Energy Vampire, Rift Plane's energy regeneration, Energizing Dash or Team Energy Restores while Primal Fury is active but can replenish energy using Energy Orbs, Orokin Void Death Orb energy restores,  Arcane Energize, Rage, or Hunter Adrenaline.
  • Primal Fury's energy drain is not converted into shields by Augur Mods.
• While Primal Fury is active, blocking will reduce incoming frontal damage by 60%.
  • Damage reduction is not affected by Ability Strength.
• Primal Fury comes installed with its own unique stance. Additional combos will be unlocked as Primal Fury increases in rank.
• The ends of Iron Staff have portions made out of energy.
  • These portions are affected by Wukong's energy color.
  • With the range bonus active, these portions are elongated.

Main article: Iron Staff

Iron Staff is Wukong's signature Exalted Weapon that can only be used upon activating the ability Primal Fury.

Main article: Primal Fury (Stance)

Main article: Primal Rage

Primal Rage is a Warframe Augment Mod for Wukong that increases the critical chance of Primal Fury with every kill, up to a maximum of 100%. The additional critical chance gradually falls off every second.

• It is preferable to use Steel Charge over Growing Power when modding for pure damage as the former adds more damage to Primal Fury than the latter.
  • Even with Steel Charge equipped, using Power Drift will provide a larger increase in damage than Coaction Drift.
