[QUOTE="doraemon8, post: 841192, member: 5147"] The monk is ultimate survival. If you take away all weapons, take away the "required" amount for sleep, he can last. He's not a front line fighter and he's not a back line defense. However, he can do stints in both. Imagine the monk like the martial artists from movies, they go everywhere. They fill in gaps and balance out large fights. I know my favorite class is the monk (mainly due to the fact that the monk is akin to a superhero). Another interesting thing about the monk is the fact that he does not cost much money to upkeep. If you're a fist guy (like i am), he doesn't pay costs in armor and weapons (so you may concentrate on magical bonuses), he does not need material components, magical scrolls, and he can hold his own. His speed is also a big benefit, he can run like the dickens and his abilities let him go anywhere. Also, an important factor in being a monk is his wisdom. It's very important and it also helps that a monk's saves (especially will) gives a bonus to front liners. After all, fighters have a tendency to be mentally overpowered, and the monk helps that out. He's the mix of all classes and he is a class of his own. etc etc etc. [/QUOTE]
