Monk

Monk (or Nun) is a hero class in Heroes of Ardania. Monks are melee-combat heroes with a focus on augmenting their combat ability through self-buffs and willpower, while fighting with no (or non-standard) weapons and armor.

Description[]

“

Monks and Nuns are the warrior priests/priestesses of Dauros, the Law Keeper. They use no weapons or armor, relying on their martial discipline. While their vow of silence lends an air of mystery, soothing melodic chants can sometimes be heard drifting from their temple walls.
