Lonely Ascetic.

It is said that the faith of the acolyte is not only for the mind, but the path one walks must also be for the body. It takes more than just the mind, but it also takes confidence, and the time and effort, along with self discliple to be able to change jobs. For the faith, one must be good until they achieve a disciplined body. Until then, it will take much time and effort. Others have come to fear and respect those who are called monks. With combo and separate attacks, the mysterious power of one must not only be physically strong, but also have great strength and tough blow/hits. Now Rune Migard's King, Tristan the 3rd's proclamation to the large Catholic church's archbishop, in following the bidding of all meanings of faith, wants them to set forth on a war against evil.

===Description===

Monks are a versatile class that can deal damage in several ways unique to themselves. They are most known for the powerful [[Asura Strike]] skill, which has uses in MVP, [[PVP]] and [[WoE]] scenarios. Most builds are damage-dealers, focusing on maximizing damage via skills such as [[Occult Impaction]] and their Combo abilities. Specialized Monk builds can be very efficient for MVP and [[WoE]] purposes.
