Overview
Once a Monk reaches class level 3, they must choose a philosophy on how they intend to fight. These choices are elected by selecting one of two feats:
- Path of Harmonious Balance: Fists of Light
- You have chosen to follow the path of light
- You seek to be at harmony with the world, and your training will reflect your philosophy
- You can activate this ability to channel energy into your attack, dealing +15% damage and 4 to 24 additional Light damage
- Path of Inevitable Dominion: Fists of Darkness
- You have chosen to follow the path of darkness
- You seek to dominate the world, and your training will reflect your philosophy
- You can activate this ability to channel energy into your attack, dealing 2d10 negative damage against living creatures
- The target becomes shaken
Swapping Philosophy
Monks can see Fred and change their philosophy at any time. This is like any other feat swap, and since this is not a prerequisite for any other feat you can take, it can be done on its own. You need one of the following to switch:
- Feat Respec Token - received once per life by completing Hall of the Mark
- This is not an inventory item, it becomes attached to the monk feats
- Platinum and some form of Siberys Dragonshard based on the character level at the time the feat was chose
