weapon affected monk strike abilities

[MrLarone]

does anyone know of a list, or can anyone provide one, that states which strikes can be used on any (monk) weapon and which can only be used when using wraps.

e.g

stunning fist = wraps only
Healing Ki = anything

[FuzzyDuck81]

IIRC only stunning fist & quivering palm (its right there in the names of each ability) plus touch of death (dark only) are the only ones that require unarmed/handwraps

[AylinIsAwesome]

Stunning Fist, Quivering Palm, and Touch of Death are all fist-only.

As far as I know, everything else can be used with a monk weapon. However, I haven't played a Shintao monk so I don't know for sure if all of those work with all monk weapons, though I haven't heard that they're only fists from other players.


However, due to the poor crit ranges of monk weapons, fists are pretty much just better due to the faster attack speed.

kl, thanks guys =)

i know wraps are better in the main but this is for a splash build and just wanted to double check.

I can confirm the shintao strikes do work i sometimes use my rhals might in epics and some quests and every strike works. Fun when you swing and take down 3 earth elems in a single swipe.
