Overview

Monks are a versatile class that can deal damage in several ways unique to themselves. They are most known for the powerful Asura Strike skill, which has uses in MVP, PVP, and WoE scenarios. Most builds are damage-dealers, focusing on maximizing damage via skills such as Investigate and their Combo abilities. Specialized Monks can be very efficient for MVP and WoE purposes.

Jobchange Guide

See Monk Job Change Guide for detailed information.

Changing into a Monk from an Acolyte requires the player to complete a number of tasks:

• Item Collection Test
• Memory Test
• Mushroom Collecting or Marathon Running
• Maze Test

After completing these tests, the player will be transformed into a Monk. All of this takes place at Monk Abbey (prt_monk).
