monk is a dmg class, one inch punch is good and energy blast is currently one of the highest damaging skills in the game ,and ur right dont take priest c3 go dievc2
Monk is consider a supportive/DPS role and quite expensive to build if you wanna “super-very damage output”…
Always Dual wield with each upgrade on arda dagger, Karacha Dagger and venom…
Basically you asking for very high damage then you will be using mostly only “1H sword for slash” – 1st target lvl 75/120 you need aim golden falchion/Trinity Sword/magas sword…
If you asking again for “super-high damage”, Straight add up str/dex without con as you will be healing urself and you need to clear monsters with a few hits… (DP attribute max for spamming)
If you cant get those basic items mention above then stop making monk as other classes can output your damage with ease…
Roll another class. Monk damage will never be competitive with other classes in a group dungeon environment. Soloing is fine because you have self sustain and a 0 CD AoE.

Do wtv you want because classes gets buff and nerf on patches.Today Op may be tomorrow worst build.Look how the hype over Skyliner and Steady Aim died down because they balance it.Won’t be long before Fletcher gets a nerf aka balance.If you notice they are slowly reworking the skills that does % damage and giving them flat damage.
Monk may be not the best dps out there now but I wouldn’t say it will never be the best because things always change in this game.
My advise is to play wtv makes you comfortable.
PS:Watch how fast those Fletcher players reroll a new character to the new FOTM LMAO.
Rinse and repeat.

It’s not about being competitive. It’s about not dragging your ass as a Cleric and keeping these dungeon runs quick and grind parties smooth.
It doesn’t take a full 7 ranks to properly support a party and any cleric that can’t figure out a way to do that and help kill these mobs with the wealth of information available is either terrible at video games and/or reading or is willingly roleplaying as a heal bot.
Cleric role in melee is full of unbalance, as you can see most rank in cleirc is magic instead melee/attack…
What the point on paladin/monk to be in the Melee/physical range and what about the Rank 8 melee/physical jobs?
lama, shepherd and zealot are the upcoming melee classes for cleric
Pretty sure Cleric is getting a ton of physical classes its way.
Just like the next “Party” warrior will almost certainly be in rank 8 given that Corsair and Squire both complete at r7.
Okay if that true, let really hope they re-balance those melee/physical cleric to be something amazing and not another stupid Auto-attack/no aoe at all…
There goes another 200+++ level on R8/R9…
Its will take very long for monk/paladin to really shine that little DPS…
shepherd will have a dog
lama is the exact same thing as a monk - im hoping for an aero fist skill
zealot will either be dark based or light based
im hoping more of a blinkstrike and more cc
I hoping for zealer blink charge for melee physical paladin with either dark or light side… I will really make a final stage for paladin as you can see lama is already related to monk…
I not sure what is so good on that shepherd with the doggy can be link to?
Most properly on the magic side of cleric that need the doggy to fight…
whats a blink strike?
heres what im hoping for
aero fist - looks like a fist made of air - overheat - ranged
and a cc
i heard somewhere that engery blast based on your CON/SPR, is this true?
here is the video showing that enegy blast dps is a joke compare to double punch…
I’m hoping for a skill than can close distance to a target like a flying kick or something likeTerry bogard’s Burn Knuckle… that would be super usefull
and maybe an improvement on the God finger flick… like addiitional status effect attribute
Can someone confirm about the energy blast based on CON & SPR?
Anyway, play what you want not what is the best FOTM build!
Things will bound to change. New classes, balancr updates, etc. If you play Wizard/archer just because people say they are OP for the sake of it, you will not enjoy the game if the not so OP class gets buffed in the future, u will feel only regret.
the fact that it cnsumes silver… i know its a little amount but the more times u use it, the more silver u use. maybe an attribute that gives a 50% chance to get the silver back
I went this route and am level 193 now.
Cleric > Cleric > Diev > Diev > Monk > Monk > Monk
Get Carve Attack, Owl, Double Punch, Energy Blast, One Inch Punch
80 Dex, 50 Con, Rest goes into Str
(This is the short version)
Numbers lie. The video is very misleading.
First of all, as he said there in the description, the comparison is made with mobs that are weak to Double Punch (Strike) but not Energy Blast (Holy). He might also have enhanced DP.
In a fair comparison the numbers popping up on the screen are much more similar and EB can be very useful against a group of mobs… if used right.
