Monk enhancements (history)

Monks have three enhancement lines available as of Update 19: Henshin Mystic, Ninja Spy and Shintao Monk.
 * Monk Enhancements
 * Henshin Mystic
 * Ninja Spy
 * Shintao Monk

Everything beyond this point is for Update 18, and is no longer relevant to the current game!

Update 18 Information:

As with other classes, the Monk receives some enhancements as a given ability of the class.

Your ultimate choices for the elective enhancements in the tables below will weigh on your decision for philosophy paths: Harmonious Balance, or Inevitable Dominion. You cannot specialize in both, nor it is wise to ignore choosing a path if you want to make your character anything more than a mere unarmed fighter.

Once you choose a path, specific enhancements are opened to you, while others are closed. As with all enhancements, should you decide to chance your path, you can see a Monk Trainer to reassign your enhancements.

Many of the enhancements are attacks that damage or debuff an enemy, known as finishing moves. Other enhancements work much like actions that give a spell-like ability, such as removing curses. (See Monk tactics on tactics in using finishing moves.)

Enhancements do not stack with other enhancements of the same series. Each element of a series, such as Disciple of Breezes or Void Strike I, for instance, has prerequisites to receive an upgrade to that enhancement--in this case, Adept of Wind and Void Strike II.

Prestige Enhancements
A character can train only in one Monk Prestige path at a time. Each has both passive benefits and active benefits, which expends Ki to get the specialty. All requirements must be taken from Monk class enhancements.

Capstone
A character can train only in one Monk Capstone at a time.
