Well, I spent a part of the night putting the page together. It's still on finished, but it's complete enough to let others check it. Hopefuly it'l help a few to have all the information at one place. There is a lot of red links, but most of the information is on the page right now so that's all that matters for now. I'll fill the red links later on.

If there are grammar errors, or mistakes, or missing information either correct it yourself (it a wiki afterall, you just got to press one of the douzen of [edit] on the page or the big EDIT button at the top) or post it here and I'll correct it as soon as possible. I have no monk at all (well the level 1 monk I made doesn't count) so it's very likely that I'm wrong on a few points. Even more things that might not keep up with Pen and Paper like Fast Mouvement and the AC bonus (they're the same, right?).

Anyway, here's the page. (http://ddo.enterwiki.net/page/Monk)

Like I said, if there is anything wrong or missing, either change it or let me know about it.

That said, I've got a few questions for the monk experts out there.


Ki Strike:



How is it written in-game? Ki Strike: Magic or Ki Strike (Magic)?
How about Ki Strike: Lawful? Or Ki Strike (Lawful)?



Wholeness of Body:



I refered to this quote for this ability:


Wholeness of Body
[Wholeness of body is a Monk granted feat which allows you to regen health. It cost 40 Ki and last about 30 seconds (though the timer says 1 minute), it may scale I'm not sure. At level 12 it doesn't heal stat damage only health, I'm not sure if does anything more at higher levels or not. The amount of health you regen is Half your Monk Level + your Wisdom mod. For example at level 12 with a +5 Wis mod you will regen 11 health per tick.

Is it really 30s?
What does he mean by "by the timer"?
I'm assuming 6s per tick, am I right to do so?
Can you move while you're using it? Must you stand still?



Slow Fall:



Increased effect at every two levels?!
What do they mean by that?



Meditation:



How is the meditation Ki regeneration rate calculated?



Thank you for your time,
Borror0

PS: It might be possible there's some stuff missing, I'm a little tired.
PPS: I'm also sorry to the few monks I bugged on Risia tonight by asking questions.

Wholeness of body is 40 Ki, 30 second duration, and 180 second cooldown. The descriptive text wrongly says a 60 second duration. During that time you are stationary in the meditation emote. Every 6 sec you regain level/2+wis hp.


Slow Fall

No players know what it means, because we cannot perceive this feat to have any effect besides permanently changing your falling pose as soon as you get it. We assume it's supposed to increase every two levels, because you get the feat again and again.

Ki Strike: Magic.

Thank you, got Ki Strike: Lawful by any chance?

Alright, thanks. I'll update to relfect that.

Yeah, just read that in one of your post... it works like Feather Fall, or more like a Tumble bonus, or you simply fall slower?

If everyone would post their monks':

Level:
Wisdom Modifier:
Meditation Ki rengenaration:

I'd love it.

It's not like Feather Fall, although the text suggests it is. It might give you a bonus to Tumble for the purpose of resisting falling damage, but I can't detect it.

The only thing I'm sure it does is extend your left leg and bend your right leg.

Meditation Ki rengenaration:
It's not quite that simple, because your current Ki also modifies the rate. And possibly Constitution or Concentration is more important than Wisdom.

Getting a monk up to level 2 to observe better what you're saying.

PS: hehe, extend your left leg and bend your right leg xD

Well, there is a point where your Ki stabilizes...

It'd be too early to draw any conclusions but...

Stabilize at: 28
Wisdom: 18, 19 & 21
Concentration: 9

Stabilize at: 31
Wisdom: 18
Concentration: 10

Stabilize at: 34
Wisdom: 19 & 21
Concentration: 11

Stabilize at: 37
Wisdom: 19 & 21
Concentration: 12

Stabilize at: 40
Wisdom: 19
Concentration: 13

It's clearly not affected by Wisdom and is totally based on Concentration and most likely level. Sadly, I only have a level 2 Monk.

Does the your number of Meditation increases, if so, when?
