Are Clonks playable anymore?

First, I know you said you already TR'd so file this for "future" consideration.

Second, Vish reminded me of something when he posted about staff builds.

In the future you may consider 14/6 Cleric/Monk War Domain Staff build. In theory I can see it working. With the new FvS pass coming out soon, FvS would also be a consideration with its focus on Healing/Buff PrE Tree (although that may spread your AP's too much).

I made a Avonti Clonk (sp?) on an alt. If I couldn't stun things, it was a pain to slog through the HP creep newer content has. So I would probably classify the (Clonk) build dead until further updates.

Update: Actually looks like there are a few domains other than War that could work for a melee based build.

Yeah with the inflated HP in reaper, it just takes forever to kill stuff.

I would say that a Clonk with more EPLs etc might be ok. But I am valuing MRR/PRR over Evasion.

I do think a better player or a deeper splash into more Monk levels would be better damage.

T5 Henshin provides +1/+1 threat/multiplier which doesn't stack with Holy Sword - War Domain is probably a weak choice for such a build. You'd also probably have an overall better character with 6 Rogue rather than 6 Monk - TA is generally a better tree than Henshin Mystic unless you're talking pure builds.
