You are right. I should have been more clear. Most other items do not scale with wukong as well as tank items in my opinion. A last whisper is nice, but I've played around with tankier builds recently and found that it should be taken last or not at all. However, Trinity force is an amazing item for wukong and so I believe that it should be at the core of any build.

Your guide is pretty contradictory. You mentioned that Wukong doesn't get his damage from items, and then you continue to state that he gets all of his damage from Trinity Force. You also mention that Phage should be rushed first, then continue to state that Sheen should be rushed first.

I understand that you may be incredibly good at playing wukong, but the decision to not normally take Ghost or Flash seems a little suspect. Without Youmuu's Ghostblade or Shurelya's Reverie you're not going to be very mobile at all. I don't think the movement speed from Trinity Force is going to be enough to keep you alive in many situations. Especially after getting CC'd because you're not taking Mercury's Treads.

I do like the idea of taking 21 points in the Defense Tree. I'll try your build and then come back and vote on it.

Edit: I saw the second build. Disregard the movement speed issue.
