You think I will lose too much power in PVP if I go to PD in the end (on rank 7)?
I know that in pvp PD is only a support that debuff enemys, I want to make it different than just monk 3.
pd gets you incinerate and op support and survivablilty
After all that debate, could someone give a solid stats ratio please? On the STR version

How are you guys doing on PVP?
IâM kind of disappointed with diev-monk when comes to PVP.
To PvE is Better than Priest monk. Because you can make traps to kill lots of anemies without suffer danger, make sinergy attack [Carve Attack + Double Punch], and Carvel World Tree Help a lot on support, as Laima too when dont get bugged (at least make the mob more slow). Not to mention the other skills of Monk that cause bleeding, armor break, area attack (energy blast).
But to PVP archer kind of use diev-Monks as a toy. Without block defense of Priest 3 (the hole point of becoming priest 3), Monk are in danger not only by archers and mages (that are gods on pvp), also gets danger even from swordsman (specially cataphat).
Any enemy with a few knowledge about cleric will know to dont get in front of carve owl or get out of world tree range, so you can only supress a area (maybe good only to defend guild tower?). May be is very good for defend, but you will always be behind the front line of war.
You will have luck if you hit at least 1 hit with carve attack, since the area of attack is very small, and because the multiple hits, if the enemy moves, its done.
I can make a big text about the good and bad skills on pvp, but my point is: how you guys deal with the fragility of Diev-Monk?
My friend is wizard and he tells me that the block of priest is a illusion on PVP, because the block penetration is very high specially from archers, but since I dont have priest-monk I cant tell nothing about it.
we are supposed to be able to carve 5 owls at once in pvp, but hey havent added that in yet (they were supposed to).
what i do is
- palm strike - knockback
- hand knife - knock up
- doube punch and carve spam
usually i can approach them because theres so much going on so they dont notice me.
LoL, you guys make Diev-Monk sounds like a squishy little girl, geezâŚ
Go near the middle of the map -> Put safety zone -> put World Tree + Owl
Then charge kamekameha and blow up the whole fcking enemy team (if you miss your laser gun, itâs your fault, go practice to aim it more correctly next time)
If they come closer, owl + double punch will make their noses bleed, if they keep their distance -> god finger flick + kamekameha will handle them & youâll have more time to put heal tiles, cure, laima, etc to help your team.

Yes, or when they are with some bad status. So the combo will work perfectly
@mecer80 thanks for the strategy advise.
What you think If instead I go Monk c3, I go other class on rank 7? Too much loss of power?
If youâre on your Cle2->Diev2->Monk path:
For Earth Tower content, I think you can sacrifice 1 rank of Monk to get Diev3 (Cle2->Diev3->Monk2), or Priest1 (Cle2->Diev2->Priest1->Monk2). Getting owl to max lv (& immunity from austrine), or getting points in resurrection is vital for your ETâs pt.
For PVP support/utilities purposes, PD at rank 7 (Cle>Diev2>Monk2>PD1) is always a good choice no matter what clericâs classes you chose. Althought PD was nerfed a little bit in PVP, itâs still so good against cc/perma stun skills from cryo/other classes. You canât imagine how fast your party will die without a PD in arena.
But if you enjoy soloing/pve life, nothing will beat Monk3, and instead of going for more utility/support role (Diev3 or Priest1 or PD1), Monk 3 gives you huge difference from 5 levels of kamekameha/1-inch punch/god finger flick, hence you can be more offensive and give better dps output in arena/guild pvp.
It really comes down to what do you enjoy in this game (ET? Support/Utilies in pvp/arena? Better dps for soloing/pvp/arena?). Maybe donât change to rank 7 too soon, get to lv 260 to try Earth Tower & decide rank 7 for yourself 
Thank you, I really aprecisate the advises!
