Monk Feedback/Under whelming Class

hello @IMC Staff,

Good evening, I’m here to give my feed back on the monk class.

Build: Cleric 3, Paladin 1, Monk 2.
Level: 200.
playtime hours: 200+.

Its, under whelming. class role is a barely support class on dungeon runs and in grinding solo very slow. Cleric 3 is more useful than monk skills most of the time on parties but it should be the other way around since monk class is higher in tier. Class progression to monk is very linear.

Buggy skills. Double punch sometimes will not hit twice.

Skill aoe and range is too short. normal attack from mace will reach further than the double punch and other skill.

monks are master of the physical body with calm mind, you know monk stuff do. but in IMC monk class version right now, its the other way around. couple use of double punch and the monk will be exhausted, tired from throwing few punches in the air that will not reach its target 80% of the time, constantly use of stamina potions which makes the skill worth less for farming, you lose more silver from just using the skill and using stamina pots. monk should have increase of stamina recovery passive or some skill to recover it. come on man we are monk and we should have longer stamina ■■■■! few punches in the air and we turn to a cucumber? what the heck…LOL fix it please. thank you, gettting angery just thinking about this flaw in the skill building of a class god dam. we love you but please fix this ■■■■ stamina of monk and some range. a priest have more constant dps than doing monk punches. holy heck what the F.

thank you for listening

love you

but please fix.

You are never gonna be a true dps class…

Monk in general should be a consistent bruiser class :v they SHOULD be able to dish out damage, and give amazing resistances/defenses. Monk in ToS … is kinda weird. lol

I don’t know where to begin…

Cleric c3 for a monk, are you serious? Pre monk you need priest c2 or c3 for the buffs, cleric gives you nothing.
Double punch is one of the best skills in this game, if used properly, you can spam it all day using the cheap stamina potions, i’m not even considering tree roots.
Are you using the right items? What are your stats? What is your weapon? Is double punch at least lvl 50 atribute? Do you use monstrance correctly to get more crit?
I’ve played as a lvl 200 monk as well and it was the easiest grind/pvp/farm i’ve ever had, and at that time i played with 300+ ping.
The class is not underwhelming, you are just a newb, get gud.

monk i an advanced dps that takes more time to level to so it should do more dps than a lowly archer or warrior, sorry but its true

nope, it’s not true. All you have is kamehame with 60 sec cd and a nice dot. That’s all.

Monks can actually out class a lot of swordsman builds when they are built right. Archers not a chance in hell of beating them though.

Ya gotta increase ur stamina amount. Level your plate auxiliary to 50, google up the secret quests that increase stamina, and grind near stamina crystals.

This is entirely my opinion but, unless you intend to always solo, priest is a waste of circles. Also, sacrament will do you no good, if youre just going to spam double punch anyway.

Because once youre in a party with a dedicated support priest, your buffs wont do anything at all (unless the monk goes priest c3, even so, 1 priest player is enough for 100% uptime on buffs,well rotating stone skin is an option i guess)

I’d rather roll cleric c2 to either krivis c2 (hello zaibas) or dievdierby c2(Wohoo 1 pierce type skill! not to mention statues that always are good)

Even if the monk invests 0 points into int, maces bonus matk is sufficient enough.

zacial should not be over looked either.

Getting some comments from monks who went krivis 2 would be nice.

Cleric 1 -> Krivis 2 - > Priest 1 for monstrance

Zaibas lv10 + zalcia lv10 + monstrance lv 1~10 + stigma lv5

I didn’t get monk, but i can confirm that krivis has tons of damage early.

Krivis 3 Monk1 Here - Zaibas lv15 is still my main DPS punching bosses while dropping zaibas yea, at rank 1-3 you even outgun wizards with this skill
I was able to solo boss rush the lv50 and 90 dungeons

Divine Stigma lv10 - godlike, if only it last least 60 secs,

Zalciai - why oh why is SPR modifier only .8? this skill starts to shine at lv10 with 100+ dex

regarding monk

-Double Punch has weird Hitbox, that sometimes misses when attacking from an angle

Monster hit by Knife hand gets immunity from attacks after landing, but you can somehow deal damage to them while falling airborne

If only I could get monstrance that would be awesome, the endless debate of STR vs DEX builds would be solved by Divine Stigma lv10 and Monstrance lv1
