Brum's Stylemaster Monk Class

The Monk is a master of Martial Arts, dedicated to shifting between different Combat Styles. Landing offensive Monk skills generates Ki, which is then consumed to enter a stance. Each different Style grants passive strengths and weaknesses, as well as allowing the Monk to use unique Style Attacks. Monks wield staves, including the newly-added Monk staves, which deal physical damage, scaling with Intelligence.

Effectively utilizing Ki requires proper cooldown management and constant aggression, making for a high-risk, high-reward playstyle.
