Dunno about other people, but I decided not to main a monk because I'm going to want to collect/carry a lot and accumulate some plat, and my impression is that monks have to stay light and poor.

hmm, that weight limit. Anyone know how much AC or Mitigation is lost by going over? Is it something you can just say F it about?

Not sure of the numbers but I solo'd with 2 different monks on blue and it is totally fine to go over a bit. Also this is classic, soloing as a melee is much harder. Monks will be in groups more often, and in groups you may have a tank to take the hits making the AC loss nearly negligible, or a healer or both ideally.

Now that most of the Classic changes have been announced and tested on the beta server (e.g. darkness, class abilities, UI overhaul, etc.), which class will you play as your primary character on Green?

This new poll is being created about one week prior to the release of Green to provide an updated sample of the server's potential population. It may be interesting to see how the new results compare to the previous poll (Link) now that people have had more time to consider the Classic changes being implemented.

As of 10/17/2019, out of 663 votes, the original poll's results were:

Bard 53 (7.99%)

Cleric 57 (8.60%)

Druid 82 (12.37%)

Enchanter 87 (13.12%)

Magician 43 (6.49%)

Monk 28 (4.22%)

Necromancer 43 (6.49%)

Paladin 35 (5.28%)

Ranger 39 (5.88%)

Rogue 28 (4.22%)

Shadow Knight 29 (4.37%)

Shaman 67 (10.11%)

Warrior 33 (4.98%)

Wizard 39 (5.88%)

What class ability changes are you referring to? Barely any have been announced

It is a sliding scale. The more overweight you are, the lower the AGI. - The same as with other classes too, it just starts a lot earlier for monks. Since monks were not envisioned to be a high AC class that loss of AGI was intended to be even more punishing than it is with the high AC gear of the expansions.

No. You want no weight on the monk. I mean don't carry bags until you have Weight Reducing bags. The weight limit is not about being Encumbered. It is about having any kind of weight at all. The wiki link I provided should direct you to the page where you can find the table. The numbers for allowable weight are incredibly low.

Weight has no impact on your DPS

And Enchanter takes the lead again!!

[sacman08]

Haha low monk results because they are all waiting for Ikky

[Jibartik]

I like human monk better for pve because pve is all about other people healing you.

[Gustoo]

Its true man. Being non KOS on all the real world is a huge advantage for PVE.

Iksar tactical improvements mean a lot in 1 v 1 battles where every edge counts in PVP but for PVE getting to start in vanilla is well worth human. Plus DE mask so dark elf monk is funny.
