Dear gluadmin,
I am sure that i am not the only one who feels that the monk is overdue for an upgrade. Frankly, compared to the other characters, he's a joke. This is unfair due to the fact that many people start the game assuming all characters are equal, only to be disheartened when they find out that their warrior/mage counterparts can kill lhb at 4k gs whilst he needs 5,6k.
With pvp on the horizon, i forsee many complaints if the monk is not buffed. Even in this update, I have 12k as a monk and can't even make a dent into general oni, due to the dodge skill having a cooldown. All the other characters defensive manoeuvres actually have an offensive attack, but all a monk can do is avoid the first strike, useless considering that oni attacks multiple times in quick succession...
If anyone has beaten general oni with monk so far, please feel free to chime in. I am interested in how you did it. It is not fair that warriors at my gs have a chance to get these weapons whilst monks like me don't. I will honestly be surprised if anyone other than a 12963 gs monk DOES get the claws.
I also challenge the developers (who i do not feel actually play/test this game properly) to try and kill general oni with all three characters, and see the difference for themselves.
Thanks

Mage isn't comparable because it has a ranged attack. So the teleport ability isn't needed every second.
Mage's range is a joke. I'm okay with it, but warrior IMO is way better.
You need more practice. My friends were finally able to defeat oni without any pots with monk. One even did it without losing a bit of health.
It is a shame too, because I love the monk's speed and mechanics- he just isn't equipped to deal with large groups... Maybe because his range is so tiny (has to get right up close to enemies to kill them) and he is the only character whose evade skill does no damage.
Also, While he can evade well even in endless, but the timer makes evasion not a viable option. He needs a way to do more damage more quickly and consistently
Yes, as US said, I did manage to beat the Oni without losing health, in a 90 second kill time. After 200 kills I also finally got the wep. (The irony does not escape me that I was the one that started this post)
But this is not the point of the post. Oni was only used as an example to point out that warriors and mages have an easier time, and the monk requires more skill.
Monks defensive needs an offensive. Perhaps when he dodges, a line of flame follows in his path that damages opponents?

And sure he sucks in endless, but for Oni.. Just stop wasting your evade..

Mage needs a buff in range in my opinion. She's a mage for gods sake. Her range is only a little bit more than the warriors huge sword.
So IMO, warrior>mage.
But who knows, maybe i just suck at using her.
How many revives/pots? And how many hours did it take you?
Which oni uve been talking about
I beat LHB with 4.4k gs monk. Took around 8 minutes. No pots. Just a lot of hit and run.
Only reason i was able to do that was because of my 15/15 gold lvl36.
