Re: Monks!
I most likely will play a monk or go back to my grassroots of a rogue... not sure yet both sound very cool in their own respects. A drunken monk will be really fly, it will be interesting to see how they add those features to non human types tho. I hope Feign death is an ability of a monk I always loved being the pull punk in the party. I remember my one monk in EQ getting nearly killed at the druid port in Karanas because he was alligned with Quellious and they weren't TEHEEE.... ported in and 5 druids were smacking me up with some dirty nature magic trying to put a sty in my eye, but I just FD'd em off me and saved my life... ALL HAIL FEIGN DEATH! Yes but the animation of monk moves will be really important to me as well I've heard how the mechanics of the class work, now motion will be very important to playing off a monk, if a monk is a practitioner of Dragon Style lets say he should carry himself with the courage and dominance of a dragon, it's not just flashy reversal moves it's a dominant way of carrying yourself in life too, whereas drunken style you have to carry yourself very loosely and ready to take the blows life give you may it be physical or psychological, the drunken wushu practitioner is a very vibrant loose individual who bends with lifes curves. Those who practice Tai Chi are very introspective, yet at the same time know how to live life, so this archtype should be a happy medium between the Dragon and Drunken... I can't wait to be able to play this on my new rig.
By the way thank you very much Iendan for sharing this with us all, much appreciated.
