Just checking in with the five other monks out there. Are we still the best class?

1. DRAGON CLAW +BRACE +ENSORCEL GLOVES should = Spell Parry, amiright? Give us a little something.

2. IHARM should be able to be entered when stunned/webbed/whatever.
Rank 1 shake an effect every 30 seconds
Rank 2 every 20
Rank 3 every 10

3. Why not a mental stance (Iharm/slipmind) and a martial stance(all the other ones) division and give us one of each at a time?

4. Let us have parry mastery

5. Iron skin ...CvA... come on, pretty please?


I know, none of this stuff will happen because monks are not broken. Still, how sweet would those five changes be? It would be sorcerer-esque upgrades!

I stopped playing a monk and decided to go for a real class.

It would be neat if we could actually get GM attention.

They designed monks around UAC which requires brawling. Brawling allows use of certain weapons. Monks can 2x CM but do not get access to weapon spec1-3. But don't worry, they get access to precision, which requires a weapon.

There are so many little tweaks like this that the GMs can make to SLIGHTLY make monks more viable. Hello GMs?

Damnit :/

That was supposed to be almost 500 characters.

Probably won't happen anytime soon as GM Finros thinks monks and UAC are just fine.

One of the monks is my demographics polling bot, thus there were only 5 logged on that matter! :D

I really need to hide that dude's profession.

I check periodically, hoping to see at least 24 one day so I can say, "There are dozens of us, literally!" I don't see that happening any time soon :/

It's not the number of monks in the game, it's the number of game in the monks!

As soon as we can conceal ourselves as members of other professions... I'm pretty sure you'll see less.

But really, when you come down to it, Monks are absolutely NOT overcompensating. You can be sure of that.

My monk's penis counts as a polearm so it works.

Yeah, we get crap like charge and multi-fire yet we don't have access to the Cms like haymaker, twin hammerfists, block mastery, parry mastery, wspec, coup de grace, headbutt..

the fact that they gave other classes the punch/grapple/kick masteries and didn't at least throw monks the bone of wspec was just like wow...well fuck me then.

Why did they give monks Garrote? Even as a Rogue I had hard time using this outside of joking.

Because Simu.

Something like Coup, I could totally see. That one actually has application and can be used pretty easily.

That a euphemism for erotic asphyxiation?

I always enjoy a smoke after a good choke.

Yes and no. I actually did choke some smarmy shit to death at some point. It's sort of like bear hug though, this looooong winded bullshit that can be easily interrupted. I'd rather have a critical chance or bonus given by ambushing than sit there for several seconds and wait for someone to stop struggling.

How do you all feel about monks with the RT reduction, ki focus auto-tier and mstrike?
