what race

[Dwarven Empath]

I'd like to see what folks think. I'd do one of those polls if I knew how.

For a monk, would giantman be the best race?

[theotherjohn]

are they actually getting close enough to release to talk about monks?

i was going to choose sylvan for RP reasons

[Kenn]

I wanted to do an erithian monk for RP purposes.

[Gan]

guess it would depend on your intentions....


mechanics wise? or RP wise?

What will be the primary purpose of the monk? Pure magic, brawler... some races are naturally better at certain skills so I'd look at that if I were you - if you're looking at it from mechanics.

RP - use whatever fits the story in which you're creating him into.

Monks were pushed back to a no earlier than 2006 release

As for "best"... I'd say the best race is the one you like playing :-p

I know my monk will be Tehir.

My monk would be human because I detest the nu warrior style of GSIV.

[Dwarven Empath]

I was thinking giant, for the combat side.

[Artha]

Half-elf.

[AnticorRifling]

I'd go giant, dwarf, or pure elf.

[Chadj]

Half-elf.
