Monk

[Warbsywoo]

Anyone use Monks in this game for a prolonged period of time?

I used Monks the first opportunity I got. I loved the techniques that you could learn from them and in fact I converted a couple of my party into monks just for the hell of it.

Wave Fist and Earth Slash were my favorite techniques from them. I remember I used to own a lot of enemies when I had monks in my party.

I turned Ramza into a monk for the 1vs Wiegraf battle.
Chakra, HP restore and Earth Slash are the only ways to beat him.

Yeah I used em. I had may main character in some sort of sword using class and an alchemist for another, but all the rest of my party were monk class. They were very strong and good to have, until you get the special side story characters of course.

I used monks all the time, very fast with great techniques which hit loads of enemies.

 

[Inferno]

Razma owned as monk. Espaciallly with Hamado. They haven't got a chance.

Monks Are The Best Job My Ramza LV.99 DOES 999 DMG BTW:The moves ARE AWESOME!

 

[Shiori]

Ramza is my monk, its a fun class to play around with. What's funny is I don't particularly like "monk type" classes in other games, but I really like it in Tactics.

Monks are and always will be the most powerful job! that job has the coolest moves on the one on one fight with Wiegraf...well he just kept running from Ramza so I used Wave Fist. That job is the best!

i really didn't use the at the biggining i was set to get other classes and that is not the only ways mimes and a ninja with knight swords kicks the crap out of everyone

Monks are ok in my opinion. I use them as a support class mostly once I learn all of thei abilities (or the more important ones like Revive, Chakra, Wave Fist, Earth Slash..). I tend to like Geomancers more than monks honestly.

 

[Takaiki]

well i tend to prefer if anything with a monk it is 2 swords with the monk (2X damage) kicks the crap out of most everyone

 

[Epsilon]

This is very true lol. I have a spare party of monks now that i think about it >.>;; Maybe I should play as them..

 

[Takaiki]

...yea that might be funny
well i used monks intel i got bored killing everything in the matter of seconds

 

[Edward Elric]

IMO the ability that allowed all physical attacks to have 100% hit rate was the best ability the game had. it guaranteed a hit everytime and was probably the main reason i won many of the battles i was in.

 

[Epsilon]

I never really used that ability. By the time I even thought about getting it I was always done with the game lol. I still recommend at least trying a party of Geomancers with monk abilities as its secondary ability. Doom Fist on an opponent who is sleeping, cant move, and cant act is quite funny lol.

 

[Takaiki]

i used blade grasp it adds a 99% stop rate so basically my men were unhitable

That's because the monk class is actually good in Tactics xD

Anyway, I never actually used monks very much in my first playthrough...nor did I use any type of mages...or chemists...I don't know how I beat the game x__x

This time around, well, I still don't use mages or chemists, but I figured out that monks are actually pretty useful with Wave Slash, Revive and Chakra. Their HP is crap but that can be fixed if you use the support ability Equip Armor. Right now I'm using a monk and she has nearly as much HP as my lancer (my favorite class, along with the ninja) thanks to that ability.

lucky bum i used basically ninja knights to beat the game they just annilated the final boss and i tripped on the weapon duplacation cheat.
but i didn't like the fact that monks were unbeatable if you made them right

 

[Drakur]

I always ahd a monk runnning around. I found them to be one of the better classes, in my opinion. They had powerful moves, but the lack of HP made it slightly annoying. I always made sure to have a monk or Punch Art on the field.

 

[Takaiki]

yea they did have low hp but if you build them right they are unbeatable.
