Game Mechanics: Monk skill - Mend

[dannym3141]

I'd just like to add here that soloing blues and even light blues as a monk was always hit and miss in classic. Mend aside, it was always tough even if you got a mend off. Light blues were never trivial and could easily take off 15% of your health (if they had a miss streak) and up to 60+% of your health if they had a hit streak.

I always remember that about monks most prominently. Sometimes you'd hit every shot and kick ass, sometimes you'd miss every shot. And sometimes the mob would hit every shot, and sometimes it'd miss every shot.

It was always very dodgy like that, and i never remember being able to "reliably solo" as a monk other than literally waiting 6 minutes every fight so i had mend and full health. My experiences soloing as a monk on this server (such as raster) are extremely similar to my experiences on live classic back in the day.

And another thing, "blue" is very generic. Some blues rip me to shreds even at 50 with good gear, and some blues are pussy cats.

My rogue has dodged...doesn't do it often, but it has happened.

I'm glad I found this thread, but I'm surprised no one has responded to Nilbog yet about mend. I was playing my newly created monk last night and realized that when I clicked mend absolutely nothing happened. No message. No hp recovery/decrease. I hope this gets fixed soon.

Well, Nilbog asked a couple times in March if it was fixed, and no one really responded.

[bjm9282]

That's why I posted, because it's still broken and I'm not sure why no one else responded.

Not quite sure what problem you're having. Mend works just fine for me. Until my mid-teens, it was a backbreaker when I needed it the most though; it almost always either failed or hurt me in the process, but I digress. [You must be logged in to view images.

Seems to be. I don't recall it failing for me over 100 skill.

At 100 skill it should never critically fail, as in, harm you. It should still fail past 100 skill. Even at max there was a very slim chance for it to not work, but it rarely happened.
