Was reading some other forums etc and came across monks lacking in the energy area or maybe just energy regeneration area...

This true or am i mislead? For u people who have played a monk have u ever had issues with running low on energy? cause i would really like to make a Mo/W but dont want to become short on heals due to lack of energy.

Thnx

I haven't really read anything on Mo/W so I could be wrong. But if you are going for a monk and warrior character, it should be W/Mo or paladin.

This will allow you to go right into battle and lasting for quite a long time.

//edit
Sorry I didn't realise I didn't fully answer your question. I'm not sure if there should be such a worry for low mana because I have seen many paladins go on and on and on and on and on and on....

o god not this agin.........



bah, but then agin i dont mind

what they settled on in the last post was (correct me if im wrong) that the monk has a different kind of management. what i mean is that tho the cant really regain mana that well, a smart monk should not run out anyway.

also they had different combos that would help alot with management.

Monks don't have any more serious energy management issues than anyone else. Mo/W? Get a zealous hilt/grip/whatever for your weapon of choice, use Balthazar's Spirit or Essence Bond or Bonetti's Defense or whatever other skill you like to replenish your energy pool. You have options. Lots of them.

You'll only start to feel the burnout in the most intense of situations, a well played Monk shouldn't have energy problems in any other situation.

Another case and point where the actual players skill is more important than what level your character is.

Ah ok! Thanks, but just want to say that i will proly never make a W/mo i have a feeling that like 50% of the pop is gonna be that. Just my opinion.
