Job Description

Employing one of the best ability sets and the strongest physical attack in the game, the monk is an extremely useful class. Their Punch Art abilities are destructive on the enemy from large distances and are effective at healing and curing allies, making the monk very versatile. One of their drawbacks is the inability to equip hats, resulting in a HP deficit compared to other front-line fighters.

Job Ability Description

Punch Art is one of the best ability sets in the game. Earth Slash hits multiple enemies from far away, and Wave Fist is powerful and more precise. Chakra, Revive, and Stigma Magic all help the monk heal its allies, and are very nice. The monk's reaction abilities are very powerful as well, especially Hamedo. Counter is a little more reliable and strong as well.
