Monk(lv70+)

Written by Mumei #4529 from ROO Discord Tavern

Monks are martial artists who use a combination of Holy magic and their fists to combat their enemies.

They invested the time and effort to sharpen their bodies rather than their minds. Rising in power with the mysterious abilities of the spirit and body, they were able to break everything that stood in their way with their strong stamina and powerful rehabilitation techniques.

1. Job Change Quest

After reaching Base Lv.40, you can go back to the Acolyte Guild and receive a letter of recommendation for the next class you would like to change into.

When you choose the Monk path, you'll be given a series of quests that you need to complete. First is the Entrance test to become a Monk by collecting purified rubies from Pirate Skels.

The next quest is to open the Martial Arts veins and complete the practical test.And lastly, the Guillotine Fist skill test

Congratulations! You are now a Monk.

2. Stats:

Bruiser Combo Monk - We need to spend points on 3 stats. STR for damage, AGI for ASPD, and DEX for HIT.
Guillotine Fist Monk - Since the Guillotine Fist skill has a long cast time, it is important to have the Core. Then we need both STR and INT for the damage.

3. Recommended Skills:

Acolyte Prerequisite Skills - Allocate skills points to Blessing, Increase Agility, and Angelus. Then put the rest of the points into any skill that you need.

Bruiser Combo Monk

For the AA attacker or Bruiser Combo Monk, Max out Raging Trifecta Blow, Raging Quadruple Blow, Summon Spirit Sphere, and Fury. Then choose between Raging Thrust or Guillotine Fist. If you will be using a Knuckle, then max out Iron Palm. Otherwise, add points to Spiritual Cadence and Body Relocation.
Iron Palm increases our damage if we are using Knuckles. Raging Trifecta gives a chance to do a triple attack and can activate Raging Quadruple blow and finish it off with either Raging Thrust or Guillotine Fist.

Here's a Combo Settings page to manage which combo option would you like to execute after the Raging Trifecta Blow skill proc. You can also set up a custom combo preset if you would like to add a Guillotine fist as the final skill.

Occult Impact Monk

For the Occult impact Monk, max out summon Spirit Sphere, Occult Impact, Fury, Spiritual Cadence, flee, and Body Relocation. You can also add Iron palm in case you will be using Knuckle.

Guillotine Fist Monk

For the Guillotine Fist Monk, Max out Raging Trifecta Blow, Raging Quadruple Blow, Summon Spirit Sphere, Iron Palm, Fury, and Guillotine Fist. You can skip Iron Palm and add points to other skills that you need in case you would be using Golden Mace. Then allocate the rest of the points to Spiritual Cadence and Body Relocation.

4. Recommended Equipment

1. Bruiser Combo Monk

Weapon: Malang Crab Claw, Combat Armor, or Golden Mace with Size, Element, or Race increase DMG cards or use Awakened Andre Cards

Armor: Tights with Picky Card or Thief Bug Card

Cloak: Morrigane's Manteau with Vagabond Wolf Card

Shoes: Morrigane's Shoes with Awakened Male Thief Bug Card Or Matyr Card

Accessories: Ring or Matyr Leash with Zerom Cards or Mantis Cards

Notes: This build highlights fast normal attacks using Trifecta and finishes your combo with Raging Thrust or Asura Strike. The damage is a bit low in the early game but the build can deal continuous damage to your target.

2. Guillotine Fist Monk

Weapon: Fist Knuckle with Size, Element, or Race increase DMG cards or use Awakened Andre Cards

Armor: Saint's Robe with Awakend Baby Desert Wolf Card or Picky Card

Garment: Wool Scarf with Frilldora Card

Shoes: Tidal Shoes with Awakened Verit Card

Accessories: Ring or Matyr Leash with Mantis Cards

Notes: This build highlights the Guillotine Fist, which can execute single targets. This is deadly in both PvP and PvE but the damage is capped when used on MVPs.

5. Tips and Tricks

The damage is low in the early game. You need to use a concentration potion to increase your ASPD and knuckle element converters, to deal more damage.
It is advised for you to grind small and medium sized targets if you are using knuckles. And you can farm medium and large sized monsters if you use maces.
Maces are the best weapons in the early game since their base damage is high and you can deal more damage to undead and shadow element targets.
Guillotine Fist is useful in PvP and PvE to execute important targets and then get out to safety using Body Relocation.
