The Abbreviated Monk Leveling Guide

By Jassper Jenkins


The new Diablo 3 Monk class is sure to be a great addition to the traditional character line-up. This Diablo 3 Monk Leveling Guide will cover many of the features of this new and exciting class!

Before a monk is allowed to enter into the battle of good vs evil, he or she must first gain control of both their physical and spiritual powers. They train for countless hours under the guidance of grand master martial artists to develop their unique and deadly fighting skills.

Monks use their masterful training to quickly dispatch of both single targets and multiple enemies when the occasion calls for it. They are highly skilled in hand to hand combat and can also use a variety of deadly weapons as killing tools. Their single target DPS is perhaps a bit more of their specialty than their AOE attacks, making them a great addition to any group looking to down high level enemies.

Quick, multiple-hit attacks are a signature feature of the monk's fighting style. When playing as this class, you should look to determine which abilities work well together and use them rapid fire to do more damage more quickly. Remember, the faster you kill you enemies, the faster you level!

The monk uses his spirit resource to power some of his more devastating abilities. Similar to a chi, spirit comes from the monk's soul itself and can be controlled and strengthened through his practice in the martial arts.

While the monk can certainly use his hands and feet as deadly weapons, that doesn't mean that he opts to avoid even more powerful weaponry in battle. Some of their signature weapons include the bo staff, also called a daibo, the regular fighting staff, and the katar. The katar is basically a fist weapon with a sharp blade on the end used for punching and impaling opponents.

Monks don't have armor quite as strong as some more sturdy melee classes, namely the barbarian. However, at higher levels monks are in fact able to wear some fairly decorative and protective items which, while not as strong as that of the barbarian, certainly do the job of protecting him in battle.

Monks also have abilities that benefit not only themselves but other members of their party as well. These new abilities are called mantras and cost 25 spirit each time they are cast. The mantras provide a wide range of abilities. Some mantras increase damage, others increase dodge and still others give a bonus to life regeneration.

I hope that this brief Diablo 3 monk leveling guide has given you a good idea of the skills and abilities offered by the monk class. With the ability to do great damage, buff the party, and throw out some heals now and then, the monk will definitely be a great addition to any group in Diablo III!
