Monk (MONK) is a recurring class in the Shining series. It is often promoted to Master Monk.
Description
Monks are martial artists who can often can use Healing spells. They often fight unarmed or with a glove that boosts their attack power. Typically they have an eastern motif to them and can be hermits who train alone to hone their skills.
Strategy
Many Monks have decent attack and defence abilities and can do decent damage. Their ability to heal other characters also helps them work well on the frontlines. Their damaging ability is respectable but not the highest and it takes some time to level them up but when used right, they can be quite the boon to the team.
