Are monks pretty much 2nd and 3rd rate now?

Is there any truly legit monk builds?

Pure monk BladeForged like Munk likes? Are there others?


ALSO: Do barbs have something that makes mobs helpless? (I've barely played them) Do pallys have something make mobs helpless?

Which is better at taking out groups?

Also, how does the Bard stack up?

It's not that monks are bad, per se, but the others got buffed up way past them, like a proxy nerf.  Nothing much has changed with monks that I know of.

Stunning blow is very effective on barbs, there is also Knockout from the Occult Slayer tree (but it doesn't look great) and a knockdown effect from Berserker.  There's stat damage, too, but you'll kill stuff far too quickly for it to be effective.

Paladins have several stuns in the Vanguard tree, but they require an equipped shield.

I'd say barbs are better at taking out groups, if only because their healing is auto-on-kill, but both have improved cleaves.  Pallys have a defensive edge, though.

Bards have that awesome freezing ice CC ability, fascinate, an insta-kill ability, but less hp and defense.  Not that you need either when nothing is moving.

I was trolling you.  I absolutely would not take a monk beyond level 12 now.  *which makes me sad as I'm loathe to make an unarmed monk without QP.

Monks have been left so far behind that I've ditched mine, and my monk is my namesake.

I can't believe the day would come where I am thinking about making a barb....

Pally is more likely. My main was originally a "battle cleric" (lol). I've tried to stay somewhat close to the whole divine warrior theme when possible.

Besides, it's easier to deal with one weapon rather than two.

Does eSoS still stand up? Or, are Thunderforged where it's at now? Others?

It feels weird to not know these things. 6 months and so much has changed. I used to do spreadsheets comparing DPS profiles of different weapons..

So stunning blow is pretty much out now?


What about the argument with 5 Foot about S&B v THF. Is one clearly better than the other? Did that change with any recent updates/patches, etc?

Balanced Attacks (as a twist), but it's available to any TWF, animal or unarmed build.

Censure in KotC is pretty nice.

In general THF pally, but if you're following my barb build you can take them out faster with cleaves and consecration/castigation. (Yes, my barb is a "divine warior", lol.)

Meat-Head wrote on May 1st, 2015 at 1:34pm:

Swashbuckler bard is #3 for single target DPS behind Barb and Pally, but brings a ton of versatility to the table in tons of buffing and other useful spells, instakills via coup de grace, tactics via frozen fury, etc.

S&B is the way to go if you want a tanky or defense-oriented character, BUT there is really no non-flavor reason to build for that in the game right now. If there were enough AP (like 145 maybe) to heavily invest in all 4 trees, then a dwarven S&B paladin would be amazing. With only 80 AP I would only call it viable compared to the top melee builds. YMMV.

So, I've been out of it since right around when Thunderholm came out.

My main is/was a completionist DC monk based on Q-palm which they nerfed hard.

I actually played the other day. The game is still fun even though only like 375 people were on Khyber when I logged on.. (I checked through Who Panel)


Anyway, can someone give me a summary of the viable builds now?

I've heard Pally got buffed with Holy Sword?
Something about Wolves?

I'm looking for melee of some flavor. I don't need ranged or caster. I also have a Shiradi sorc and a Monkcher (dunno if either of those are still as good as they were when I left..)


Listen not to the ignorant fools.

Pure rogue or 18 rog + 2 something, acrobat, sireth, divine cursader ed, and enjoy constant 80-100% doublestrike, massive damage, it übers ranger fury, as it wont suck balls, like furyies running out of adrenalines, or LD +75 melee power and 50 dodge which is crap. Only problem may be PRR, but that can be solved with a lil twisting, multiclassing with 2 something.

DPS output is just tremendously op. Roll Eyes

The most broken epic PL in the game is the ridiculous AC buff from martial PLs. But when you include all the inherent benefits from reincarnation, the thing is above the roof. The benefit from TR was supposed to be minimal, but now it is game breaking. start a new character and you will feel, you will get raped in heroics.

Personally I think lower heroics on new characters are harder than Legendary Elite content on a character with good gear and has all destinies farmed.

Wow.

Have you EVER gone to Law School Feyn? Have you EVER been asked by a United States Senator who is now the Vice President of the United States to write a paper just for him on a particular topic of Constitutional Law for his use as a Senator? Have you ever been asked to help a very notable Harvard PhD turned Constitutional scholar with his very-well received book on Legal Philosophy and Constitutional Revolutions? Have you ever been offered a job as a Deputy Attorney General BEFORE you even graduated Law School?

No? Then STFU you fucking amateur.
