So, I tried searching, but I guess no one has posted it yet (or I just wasn't able to figure out the right words to search for). What are the stats on a high-level human monk?

Ribbonweaver Nejii Talnara, Kotul en-Kui
Strength : 17 Dexterity : 18 Constitution : 16
Intelligence : 16 Size : 10 Charisma : 15

Taking away 2 from titan, and -1 from strength and dexterity due to enhancement spread:

14/15/14/14/12 (size)/13 That would be level 95.

Thats horrible stats. Even at 94 human warrior I have better stats than that. Guess human monk really isn't going to be a good choice, not when I think you could get better as a lobo or aslaran or possibly even kephera at demigod level.

Human 95: 14/15/14/14/12(size)/13
Human Titan: 16/17/16/16/14(size)/15
Advantages:
Exp bonus, Human Evolution (maxed out at 95).
Disadvantages:
NONE

level 3 Health regeneration, level 1 Resistance to fire, level 1 Resistance to cold, level 1 Resistance to poison damage.
Disadvantages:
level 2 Susceptible to magic.

Aslaran 1-95: 12/16/12/14/12(size)/13
Aslaran Titan: 14/18/14/16/14(size)/15
Advantages:
level 2 Recover balance more quickly, level 1 Regain equilibrium faster, level 1 Resistance to cold.

Male Kephera 1-95: 11/16/13/10/10(size)/11
Male Kephera Titan: 13/18/15/12/12(size)/13
Advantages:
level 3 Resistance to blunt damage, level 3 Resistance to cutting damage, level 2 Resistance to psychic damage.
Minsdense: Sense others in the local area.
Hive Mind: This special ability allows female of level 50 and above to declare themselves queen and form hives. Any non-queen kephera (male or female) may be part of a kephera queen hive. When bonded with a hive queen (female kephera level 50), everyone in the group gets extra health and mana and ego (extra 50 health/mana/ego per kephera bonded in a group when in the same area as the queen). If the queen dies, the hive is broken. All members must stay within the local area.
Disadvantages:
NONE since robes are not considered armor.

This would be without any other skills, like psymet or acrobatic skills. Nor does it include yellow, geburah, or anything like that. I didn't put faeling in, because I was lazy, and their stats to me aren't much better than human as far is monks are concerned. And Illithoid really don't seem like a very good choice without specializations. I just see more potential in Aslaran, or possibly Lobo. Of course until Kephera get nerfed, they will be great tanks with all the advantages and no disadvantages, but they dont have the best str/dex (well female don't, male would be fine, close to aslaran).

Mm. One more question then. Is the regeneration from Regeneration a flat rate, based on skill in Harmony, or based on max health/mana/ego?

Like, I know Mercy is based on max, Perfection/Beauty are set numbers, right? And Performance regen is based on skilllevel.

What's IronWill and PsyMet regen based on, btw?

It's level 1/2/3 regen as normal, depending on how many of the appropriate mantras you have ready.

I've never tested ironwill, since I didn't know it regened ego. Hmmm.

Regen seems to be a flat rate according to Aesyra, but I don't know for sure.

So, if you have 3 body mantras, then it'll be level 3 health regen?

Hmm. In my little bit of testing, Harmony Regen, with 1 mantra, regenned 75 even as I gained levels, thus increasing my max. Which doesn't seem like its a level 1 regen, but rather either a flat rate, or a skill level-based rate.

Harmony Regeneration (with ooshphet lumphet angphet) and a Mercy enchant give me about 20-25% regen.

Well, with Harmony Regen and triple heart mantras, I regen 225 ego as a flat-rate. Not dependent on my max at all, seemingly.

Try ego real quick and see what you regen?

Edit: only reason I suggest ego is because Beauty gives a flat regen, whereas Mercy gives max-dependent, so it kinda skews the data a bit.

Edit2: Whoops. Meant 225 ego regen, not 250.

So, humans aren't that great, what's the best race? Kephera? Aslaran? Others?

But I dun wanna. :P



You sure Beauty is flat? According to the max health/sip/regen calculator, it works just like Mercy. I'd tend to agree with it, too...I'd like to see someone test this with logs.



Krokani are probably the best, offensively speaking and ignoring titans/demigods.

I thought for sure it was flat. But maybe I'm wrong? I thought I had even read posts around here of people wondering why Mercy was % and the others were just a simple flat rate. You could test that too, ya know :-P Just remove your mantras, spam secondsight til your ego drops down, then check how much beauty regens.

Just tested something else.

With Triple Body Mantras, I regened about 15% health. I leveled, and the regen went up as well. So health regen through harmony is % based.

Buut. After leveling up, and with triple heart mantras, I still regened exactly 225 ego. So it seems to be a flat base. Though it could be skill-based, but someone would have to try it and see if they regen more than I did.

Yeah, looks like Krokani are the shyte. I started illithoid, but changed to Kephera due to guild restrictions, then realized that i should have gone Krokani instead. Allthough, it took me about 2 days to get from level 10 to 50.

wouldnt mind seeing for like level 80 humans get some advantages
ie: because a warriors level 80 they get their stat bonus and idk level 1 cutting resistance?

You lost me there. What level 1 cutting resistance?

He means he wants it for human warriors. Although they are already one of the better warrior races and really don't need it.

actually i was thinking something like that for all the classes
mages get 1 magic resist
bards 1 to psy
or something?

(High level) Humans are good enough as they are.

If anything, I'd like Loboshigaru to get looked at so people will stop thinking of them as a sub-standard tanky race. In any case, this is a human monk thread so...

dunno, but im sure they're strong... unlike.. us faelings...
