While we're on this subject not only would it be nice to know what each spell uses, dc,sc. I personally would like to know if maybe there are any plans for new items from say 30 onwards that have both stats on? as currently i guess you can only really be one or the other. Unless of course you say have a dragon ring but gem sc +3, still in a way if the class requires both your losing the possible maximum stat of one or the other.

well that doesnt help at all because some spells need sc for damage and we want to know whats what...

we have all played mir for years and know all the spells for classes but monk is a new class and no one knows anythin about them unless they played beta...

so a reply from a GM would be great.

Why not test? See what kits do what damage with what spells... not hard.

Well it's a hybrid so it's safe to assume some spells are equally affected by both stats and some spells will be more affected by one than the other, you probably just haven't got them yet

Quite a lot of little things iv noticed about monk that needs further testing. For example, its a minute problem if it doesn't translate further into the game, but Monk's are untouchable at low lvl's, when your running round mizu killing scarecrows, nothing can hit you. Also Shaolin doesn't seem to act as thrust if you are locked onto a target directly infront of you, haven't tested this though.

like i said if you read...

there hitting the same with DC/SC..

****me learn to read.

Just because you said it doesn't make it true. Also you're level 30.

Would be nice to have a little background on the Monk though, I remember a Q&A thread about it way back but I cant find it. :(

Seems as if dc/sc both effect spells on Monk by the same amount, so rather than 1 sc being 2-3 damage increase for example, it's just a straight up 1 damage as if it was the same as dc. Seems like the spell coefficients for monk spells need sc to effect them more.

I guess we will see how much sc effects skills when we get some proper spells :P

thats what happens when you get a bunch of random noobs to test them. Clearly no damage balance tests was carried out.
I would suggest putting all of the opinionated people that regularly make suggestions in to the testing pool in the future. At least these people will look at these kind of things.

One of the first tests would have been checking the damage increment per stat per spell.

Both kits were tried in testing, SC kit was always way better DC kit was crap damage so don't know what was changed.

I just tested on my 26 monk and all SC does less damage then all dc on the Shaolin skill. Either way it takes like 15 second to kill a black maggot , Maybe higher lvl skills are sc dependant but early on not true.
