Chrono is slightly better than Wukong as his ability blocks damage and gives players the opportunity to shoot their enemies from within the force field. Moreover, Wukong’s cooldown time is much more than Chrono, even after the OB30 update in Free Fire.

Wukong has one advantage, and that is the cooldown time of the ability resets if the player is successful in taking down an enemy. So, Wukong’s performance and usefulness depends on the type of Free Fire player using him.
