WYROM - Give monks a purpose please

Seriously...they don't contribute anything to the game. Nobody needs them.

That is all.

They are great in group runs of stuff, like Reim?

What would you like a monk to do? They are pretty much on par with paladins in terms of group benefits.

Skin adjustment, like armor but for your skin!

Monks are incredibly under rated for a major, single skill: MOC.

MOC cooldown and stamina usage is based on weapon rank, Physical Fitness, and MOC ranks. But, since monks don't use physical weapons, it ends up being a SUPER RIDICULOUS LOW Recovery time. Their cost is only 5/2 for it and only Warriors and Monks can 2x into it. With the introduction of the UAC Mstrike... ohh man, it's amazing.

With 1213 reducing stamina costs of abilities, it enables super low stamina cost Mstrikes as well if used within RT...

So you're left in an environment where your Mstrike recovery is like, 10-15 seconds... if you use it within that recovery time, the stamina cost is dirt cheap due to a low base cost due to no physical weapons, and then further reduced by your own spells...

Honestly, Monks are actually fairly OP if played correctly.

i have yet to see any monk skills related to making wine, or quietly transcribing manuscripts.

My monks are Awesome but low level. They've been great with THW and UAC. I've been away from the game for a few years and I remember people saying Monks are good until cap. Then you have to get into heavy armor and they're not so hot.

How do Monks do at or approaching cap?

Edit: You must spread some Reputation around before giving it to ArchSenex again.
