Monk (character Class) - EverQuest

In the game EverQuest, the monk class can be chosen only by the human, lizardman (Iksar), or drakkin races. Monks have hand to hand combat skills, and can fight with or without weapons, using fists or staves, and able to use only leather armor and lighter because of their weight limit restriction.

Monks gain the ability to feign death. This gives the Monk the ability to drop to the ground and cause enemies to forget about his presence, or in MMORPG terms, lose aggro. This technique is useful for pulling, or bringing monsters to a party of player characters to be killed. The monk class also has the capability to mend wounds, which heals a quarter of his or her total hit points.
