Default Iksar Monk Guide

Hey guys.

I made a guide for leveling/gearing a brand new Iksar monk following my experiences on Red and Green.

Let me know if you have any comments on it!

My monk is a human so it's not for me, but it looks good [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]

Nice guide man, honestly I learned a few things about intimidate that i didn't know before.

The one thing I'll add, is that if your a new monk, level 28+, splitpaw is pretty much the best "Monk School" zone there is. Practicing solo pulling the mobs before door is how I learned how to split, albeit in the sneak pull days.

To split two +mobs, the most ideal way to do so as a newly minted monk, is to agro them, (Shuriken is ideal for some distance, if nothing else use body agro) Let ONE mob reset back to it's spawnpoint, stand back up, create more distance, and flop again. The mob that didn't reset will path instantly back to it's spawn point. Once that mob resets, you have a solo pull!

Good luck out there, and if you're a new monk on the blue server, feel free to PM me with questions, OR, if you're new and looking for a couple pieces of nice gear to get you started, PM me and I will give you a quest, and in return you'll get a haste item and perhaps a nice weapon [You must be logged in to view images.

Interesting. I need to add a pulling section.

My trick is one one starts pathing back stand up to reaggro them both then flop again to reset the timer on the one that stays.

I need to try your way, it seems fantastic.

Nice guide man. I’ll reference this if I ever roll a monk, because it will for sure be Iksar

for those who dont have a fungi or any twink gear, which stats should be focused on to reduce the amount of damage taken?

I'm finding at lvl 40 I get beaten up so much in splitpaw and need to wait 6 mins for mend to pop before killing another tech mal

Plenty of AC, max hp helps as mend heals 25% of your max hp (including gear and I think buffs). Be mindful monks get low weight bonus / weight penalty on tanking way before encumbrance kicks in. Mage / shaman bags if you really need to loot lots of fine steel and don’t be shy of deleting coin. The aviak merchant can be used to sell and then convert those heavy coins / weapons in to low weight high value stackable gems.

Make sure you keep defence close to cap (if you do a lot of pulling / dps but no tanking you may not keep it capped) and don’t forget to train your other skills (block is particularly potent as a defence).

Spell AC falls under a different tier of AC cap so if you can keep AC buffs on (whether proc, click or simply other players) that can make a huge difference to your mitigation. There are usually Druids in SK from which to buy skin and regen buffs.
