Who says that the best combat warriors are the ones with the fanciest of weapons? Not the Monk, that’s who. Dungeons and Dragons Online’s premier hand-to-hand combatant is going to get even deadlier when its revamp arrives with Update 72.
Before that happens, however, Standing Stone Games will continue to refine the overhaul due to feedback from previous testing. The second iteration of the Monk changes are up on the forums, with particular focus on the Ninja Spy enhancement tree.
“Feedback indicated that Ninja Spy needed the most out of these trees. It lacked the melee/ranged Power of other trees, the ranged/thrown path wasn’t competitive vs. other options, and a few finishing moves that hadn’t yet made it into trees needed a home,” explained the studio.
The Monk revamp will arrive at the same time as the new Dragon Disciple Monk archetype, which is a Monk who’s gained access to powerful dragon magic.
Dungeons and Dragons Online recently won MOP’s 2024 award for Most Underrated MMORPG.
