The monk is a killing machine.

I've got a Solo Felpurr Monk at about lvl 12, and he's unstoppable.

Start by building dex and speed. This gives him the number of attacks he needs to do real damage. You will need to purchase and carry stamina potions, as he will tire when fighting groups (solo anyway).

Then work strength to increase damage and stamina.

When you run into a group of weak monsters early on (low level slimes and such), let them swing and miss while you defend, to train stealth a bit. I've got my stealth up to 95, and at this point armour class isn't a problem. With reflexion coming shortly, it will only get better.

Magic is fairly limited so far. I've got decent healing and some mental, but really sticking to hand-to-hand combat. If I need to, I'll train magic w/ Knock-Knock later on. I'll try to avoid that, as it can be tedious.
