Wukong and Quick Thinking mod

[Zi-Sui]

So Quick Thinking is supposed to let you live even if you lose "all" your health, by making energy be your health instead in that situation. Wukong's passive, Immortal Techniques, is also supposed to let you live if you run out of health. They both do that. The problem is, when you use that mod on Wukong, Immortal Techniques activates first, and only after all three Immortal Techniques charges have been used, you revert to Quick Thinking in that situation. That is very disappointing, because while Wukong is a tanky frame even without Quick Thinking, that mod makes him all the tankier. But using it, you practically make your passive skill useless in that picture, as you can't rely on Quick Thinking before you use up your passive charges.

Is this a problem? If you're used to using the mod, yes it is. It's one of those cases where you can say "yeah but you should just be grateful that he even has that passive" and that's not wrong to say. But, Quick Thinking is practically a buffed Vitality mod if you apply it with (Primed) Flow, as it too gets the advantage of having armor. Thus you want to rely on Quick Thinking a lot more, than just have it as a failsafe you should never come to use. It's better than that, much better.

So please, make it so that Quick Thinking trggers before Immortal Techniques, not after.

its just how it is. I wouldnt waste a mod slot for quick thinking after the wukong rework tbh

IMO just use Healing Return on your Iron Staff and use that to be more tanky.

i guess i'd agree that the get out of jail free cards are getting in the way and i'm surprised that they don't activate on actual death and just interrupt it, rather than apparently activating at 3 or 2 Health.

I would recommend the same, but it doesn't take away from OP's argument. QT shouldn't work that way with the passives, and I don't think it was intended that way.

Yep. You may not feel it's a necessary build, but that doesn't mean it shouldn't work. There's nothing stopping someone from using QT and ignoring the passive, and no requirement that Wukong use QT, but there isn't a very obvious reason he can't have both, either, and it's almost certainly not an intended effect.
