*All values are changeable to balance with other classes*

Now to the elemental focus:
-For a speed "monk" Air/Earth
The idea behind this is to build similar to an archer with mobility, bringing swiftness to them so they may avoid damage and deal damage

• Benefits
• Agile
• Sustainability through avoidance
• Negatives
• Low defense
• High mana usage

-For a tank "monk" Earth/Fire
This build is to bring straight tankiness to the fight, guarding their friends in fights and keeping the boss localized

• Benefits
• Sustainability through high defense
• Medium damage
• Negatives
• Slow speed
• High mana usage

-For a control "monk" Water/Air
This build focuses more on being out of the fight and mainly using their "poisoner" ability to force debuffs and the Martial arts master to slow

• Benefits
• Low mana usage
• High mobility
• Negatives
• Squishy
• Reliant on mana for damage

For a damage "monk" Thunder/Fire
The idea behind this one is to be dealing damage while attempting to not be hit. Building into the thunder tree create the double damage potential.

• Benefits
• High damage output
• Medium defense
• Negatives
• Can't get too close for long periods of time
• High mana usage

For a hybrid tank "monk" Fire/Earth/Water
Based around being an all around fighter, creating a class with equal benefits and negatives.

• Benefits
• Medium damage
• Medium mobility
• Medium defense
• Negatives
• Would rely on a separate class for assistance on major quests

Monks weren't these badass fighters with all these crazy abilities.



They were men who gave up their whole lives for worship in the Middle Ages.

 

Warriors in real life generally don't fling their enemies into the sky.

 

Honestly, Wynn isn't even mentioned to be in a certain time period, timeline, universe or planet. I highly doubt it is Earth, due to Minecraft logic and the magic, its clearly Minecraftia or something of the sort, so yea. We still need to keep some logic. I actually highly agree with @PlasmaDragonite.

 

Thing is, they do that because of their religion. Wynncraft's religions are different, therefore their religion could tell them to go out there and smack everything.

 

Keep in mind that the actual warrior class has the ability to throw enemies into the air.

 

Yet that is not their religion. Hell, Bovemists are probably some type of monk.

 

Keep in mind the Shaolin monks, who spents their lives training in the art of fighting.

 

Keep in mind that that's exactly what I was referring to.

I don't understand, please rephrase.

 

I was thinking of European monks when I said what I said.

 

If Bovemists(worshippers of Salted), are monks, then their religion is definitely not to fight.

 

Aren't Monks supposed to be peaceful? And not deadly?

 

Ah alright, understood.

________________________________

They are peaceful, but trained to defend themselves.

 

Did anybody say Bovemism is the only religion? Dern and Fruma might bring new ones.

 

Alright, alright you got me there, but monks in Wynn, it just doesn't fit or appeal to me.
