A more supportive kind of Monk

So guys, I want to make a STR/DEX monk, but at the same time support my party, and just came up with this:

So, what you guys think ?

One inch punch is a lot stronger than palm strike, but up to you.

Laima should be higher level for better uptime, zemyna isn’t so important.

Get 1 lvl in deprotect zone for hand knife combo.

What @mrshadowccg said is good.
I would recommend (my opinion, just to make it clear) that you spend some points on CON (not to get tanky, just enough to not be one-shoted).

The reason I choose to level Palm Strike over One Inch Punch is because of the AOE Attack Ratio of Palm Strtike, even with lower damage.

Isn’t it better ?

No.

Having a lv10 one inch punch increasing the DOT duration to around 15 secs. If you have a DOT tick of 1k per second, you get around 15k DOT damage worth.

One inch punch debuff affliction rate is higher than palm strike bleeding. Certain enemies can resist bleeding and some boss monsters can nullify bleeding. One inch punch debuff, on the other hand can inflict it on those boss monsters.

And power wise (lv15 vs lv15), one inch punch wins against palm strike.

Yeah, it’s better on one target I got that, but what about mobing ?

If you play solo…a LOT then yes, palm strike.

You can knock them them but don’t expect them to go down easily

With the upcoming merge with KToS database it’ll get the no-knock back attribute.

I choose to get rid of Zemina and put those points into Vakarine, since level 5 decrease SP is so low, and with level 5 Vakarine I can teleport the whole party. It should be more usefull.

But I appreciate your input guys, I’ll probably replace Palm Strike with One Inch Punch for World Boss hunting.

Another thing, are the points left, since replacing Palm Strike with One Inch Punch will left with 7 points in Monk skills and I don’t know that to do with them.

I’m still thinking.

Ok guys, I changed the build to include the changes you guys proposed. But I’m at a loss to where I spend the remaining 7 points in Monk skills.

Can you guys suggest something ?

Either hand knife or palm strike ae fine for the extra points. Just put them wherever.

regarding your cleric skills though, i’d reccmend you take one point off safety zone and put it into fade. It’s actually helpful to get you and your pt out of really bad mobbing situations or to run somewhere safely (you can’t be damage by skills on the floor while fade is on)

Ok, I put those points in Palm Strike.

And about the Cleric points, I took one point from Deprotected Zone move it to Fade. I guess it’ll be better to take it from ther.e What do you think ?

cleric skill wise, no problem for me.
