Leveling Up Wukong's Command icon Wukong's Command
Level 1

  • ▶️ r Some of the tales you hear about me are truer than others.
  • ▶️ r The origins of my staff? How much time do you have?
  • ▶️ r I should have known a weapon worthy of my talents wouldn't be found in an armory.
  • ▶️ r I didn't find this staff by chance, it called out to me. It longed to take part in my legend.

Level 2

  • ▶️ r The Narrow Maze is only a labyrinth if you stick to the path.
  • ▶️ r I was fearless before I was immortal. But now -- haha -- the gods fear me!
  • ▶️ r It wasn't my name alone purged from the underworld's ledger. My army will outlive you all.

Level 3

  • ▶️ r My enemies thought the flames would consume me; they made me stronger!
  • ▶️ r Fire in my belly, fight in my blood.
  • ▶️ r Some legends burn out. I tend to flare up and leave the place in shambles.

Lore[]

  • The oldest tales say he hatched from a magic stone, bursting one day from a massive boulder that had borne silent witness to the entirety of creation. But only children and fools put stock in such things.
  • To seek a weapon worthy of his talents, Sun Wukong called upon the King of the Eastern Seas, known hoarder of many great treasures lost to the lands above. He found a gold-banded staff of remarkable dimensions shining in the blackest depths.
  • Not content to live as the greatest warrior of his own time, Sun Wukong traversed the path to the underworld to steal his name from the Book of Life and Death and become a living legend for all of time. But nothing comes without its price.
  • Determined to restore balance to nature and prevent further crimes, Sun Wukong's enemies conspired to lock him in a furnace, intending to purge his heavenly powers in the purifying flames of the Eternal Crucible. The flames only made him stronger.
