Garena Free Fire Wukong character: Price, abilities, description, and more

Except for Nulla and Primis, every Free Fire character has a designated ability that offers a tactical advantage on the battlefield. Character skills in the game have been categorized into two categories – active and passive – based on their mode of activation, and the capabilities are also assigned on the same basis.

Garena has followed a trend in assigning powers to the in-game abilities as, generally, active skills are way too powerful than their passive counterparts. Hence, as per the tactical prowess of the skills, active abilities have been the primary choice, while passive ones are taken as secondary.

Today's article will discuss the active ability of the character Wukong.

Players can buy Wukong for 499 diamonds from the in-game store. However, after the OB33 update, Garena is expected to introduce the “LINK” system, which will allow players to acquire Wukong and other characters at no cost.

Currently, an in-game event, “Redeem Free Character,” is live, which will end on April 15, 2022. Players can exchange a “Character Choice Crate” from the event page using 100 “LINK” tokens. Hence, users can acquire any character using the event.

Players can upgrade Wukong by using Memory or Universal Fragments. Here are the number of fragments used to upgrade from one level to the next:

• First to second – 100 fragments
• Second to third – 400 fragments
• Third to fourth – 1,000 fragments
• Fourth to fifth – 2,000 fragments
• Fifth to sixth – 4,000 fragments

Players can use both types of fragments – Memory and Universal – to upgrade their character in Free Fire. The system uses the Memory Fragments at first; if they are insufficient, Universal Fragments are deducted.

In case, Universal Fragments are also insufficient, one can use diamonds to upgrade the character. Players can acquire fragments by using a specific character (Wukong in this case).

Skill slots for an ability in Free Fire (Image via Garena)

Apart from upgrading Wukong’s ability, players can also unlock additional skill slots that form a character combination. One can use as many as four skills – One active and three passive – in a character combo. Thus, in the case of Wukong, users can use a maximum of three passive skills.

However, before using a skill slot in Free Fire, players need to unlock the same using diamonds or gold coins. The price of unlocking the skill slots for any character is given as follows:

• First skill slot - 40 diamonds or 2,000 coins
• Second skill slot - 75 diamonds or 3,750 coins
• Third skill slot - 125 diamonds or 6,250 coins
