Wukong reference in POE :)

Aren't Sweep & Leap Slam AOE's too, or are they limited by melee range no matter what?
I wish all weapons scaled with levels :( A 6s one of those that you could use from level 11 or whatever on would be badass.

I had no idea LoL had the monkey king in it. I guess he was a bit of a legend.

I was raised on these stories. Wu Cheng'En's 'Journey to the West' is a tattered tome on my shelf.

That and 'Monkey' (a Japanese show based on a Chinese legend about a band of unlikely heroes going into India dubbed into hilarious English) is very, very well known here in Australia. For some reason the show never made it to America, at least not in any widespread sense.

Precisely that. Occasionally I'll still randomly quote the opening monologue about Monkey's birth, for my nature, like Monkey's, is IRREPRESSIBLE!

If I like a game, it'll either be amazing later or awful forever. There's no in-between.

Personally, I think intelligence should have increased the attack range instead. This is Gokuu's staff, after all. (Goku, Gokuu, Sun Wukong, Zidane Tribal, ALL the same character).

One of the main traits of his staff was that it could change length at will.
Bullshit, you get the game for free.

I'm pretty sure that if you go crazy on str and dex, this can be some really crazy dps right there.

That is the function I'd known was coming for a while, and I was curious to see how they'd implement it.

I think 'area of effect radius' is as close as they can get, and it is an intelligence factor.

I was also curious if they'd somehow try to simulate its incredible weight, but it seems not.

Actually the reference comes from WC III DotA,which has an item called "Monkey King Bar"


And the reference from Dota comes from Phantasy Star Online where there is also a Monkey King Bar, Dota borrowed several items from this game (Black King Bar, Sange, Yasha). Of course, the one in Phantasy Star Online comes from the chinese stories.
