Here's a sneak peek at what is coming for Monks:

New Monk Enhancement Tree changes:

Cobra-Kai Training I - Sweep the Leg: You were trained by John Kreese to always go for the leg first. Passive - All melee and ranged attacks have the Tendon Slice 50%. And procs a Trip attack. DC 10 + Monk Level + 1/2 strength modifier. Successful proc also adds +50% to hate generation on all attacks for 60 seconds. (People are outraged at your poor sportsmanship.)

Cobra-Kai Training II - No Mercy, Sensei: You were trained by Kreese to brutalize helpless or injured opponents. You excel at identifying opponent weaknesses and exploiting them in combat. Passive: When opponent health below 75%, +1 brutality bonus to crit range. Below 50%, additional +1 brutality bonus to Crit multipler. Below 25%. additional +1 brutality bonus to crit range.

Miyagi Training I - Wax On/Wax Off: Your defensive skills have been honed by months of cleaning the decks of the guild airship. Passive: +3/+6/+9 to AC and +3/+6/+9 PRR. You can also deflect arrows once per 3 seconds. And your guild airship decks sparkle and resist scuffing from spiked boots.

Miyagi Training II - Paint the Fence: Your defensive skills are razor sharp due to months of painting the guild air ship hull. Passsive: +3/+6/+9 to AC and +3/+6/+9 PRR. Your deflect arrows now procs every 2 seconds. And you gain +5% guild renown on all guild renown rewards for having such a sweet looking ride.

Miyagi Training III - The Crane: Your unleash devastating kicks from one leg with arms raised to the side. Combat Stance: While active, all unarmed attacks have +1 Crit Range and +1 to Crit multiplier. However, you do give up some mobility hopping around on one foot. -10% movement speed, -3 to AC and -3% dodge. Also, you look like a dork. I mean stork. -5 to Intimidate. +5 to bluff.

Miyagi Training IV - Healing Touch: You can clap your hands and rub them back and forth using friction to create waves of healing heat. Active: Acts as Lay On Hands.(10 + Monk Level) X Wisdom Modifier HP. Cooldown: 90 seconds.

Russo Training I - Hide in Showers: You are adept at crafting disguises to fool your enemies and hide in plain sight. Passive: +20 Hide, -10 to Spot. (You can't see anything through a shower curtain!)

Is the "Crane" on a separate cooldown from "No Mercy".

It would be sweet to crane an enemy and as they reel back and take em down with no mercy.

Also: sounds like "no mercy" is similar to "sense of weakness" - if so then I can swap out that feat for something else

It must be fake - one has to have at least bit of intellect to create something like this.

What about the new feat? "You're The Best, Around". I think it makes you immune to knockdown and trip effects?

I'm pretty sure thats a racial-passive on gnomes, but only if you choose a darker skin tone.

That thread title and your actual content have given my monk blue-balls, not nice.

One of my guildies has a deep gnome that straight up looks like Master Roshi...so probably.

Weak troll gets a bunch of greasy cock sucker to take the bait; I like to think I'm not that guy...

You think they're creative enough to come up with their own shit and not just plagiarise an old dorky movie?

Seriously dude, they're likely running around the office hi-fiving each other at how insanely clever they are.

Oh god it's so fucking embarrassing. Do WB hold the license or something?

It didn't come from Turbine.  I just made those up.  Wasn't trying to troll.  Just for fun.

That ability is tied to the ability to hide in showers without being seen.

Cobra-Kai Training 4 - Shattering Strike - In a fit of rage,  you throw caution to the wind, even when attacking another Dojo master.  Your next attack does 5[W] damage and +1 crit multiplier.  If you miss, however, you shatter a car window (and your fist) doing 5[W] damage to yourself and breaking your hand in the process.  No offhand attacks (-20% attack speed if THF) for 30 seconds.  Cool down 18 seconds.
