Monk When? | Patreon Weekly #195

Hey Patrons, a slightly short weekly this week as I’m pushing to get the Monk finished. I do have some details to share though!

This weekly also has an audio Q&A in it! Go and give it a listen if you’d like. You can find audio timestamps at the end of this weekly.

Monk Details!

I’ve now got pretty much everything about the monk locked down, and just need to fill out the implementation. Here are her five abilities:

(Note that the damage dealt by flurry and dragon kick is based on the monk's unarmed damage. In this example the Monk has 18 strength.)

And here are her three talents!

The details and numbers shown here may change slightly (let me know what you think!) but the general mechanics are all locked down. If all goes well I should be able to get the Monk to beta tomorrow or Wednesday.

Audio Timestamps

A quick note, it seems that I missed a question asked by Destruire earlier this month, sorry about that! I’ll answer that question at the start of next month’s Audio Q&A.
