First question, can monk dual? (i know sorceror can't)
Second, is there a spell that can remove traps? Third, Is there any way a monk can DISARM traps, not just find them? Is there a familiar that can disarm traps? Thanks ------------------ *Slash*Slash* Demi-Licheath Synthos, looks at Carsomyr +5...: Man I love this sword! |

No spells can remove or disarm traps, I do not believe that any familiars can disarm traps either, go with a Fighter/Thief(Either dual or multi.) instead of your monk.

*Looks at Neb's response*
That leaves me with one last question to be answered... No, monks can't disable traps. ------------------ Not a member of any clan and is cool with that. For online roleplaying, check The Elysium Gaming Project. |

hmm, I think ferret can disarm traps, but with 20% in remove traps it probably doesn't work often at all.. That sux, oh well..

The monk may not be able to disarm traps, but with magic resistance like that, it shouldn't really matter all that much, should it?

They don't get any magic resistance til level 15 or so, so it would be a legit problem up until that point.

Don't sell monks short!
They can detect traps, but cannot disarm them. They can use stealth. Their armor class goes down for every level. If you love using your best armor and weapons on you protagonist a monk isn't for you. But if you're just interested in a kick butt character, monks rule Self Healing Stunning Blow Quivering Palm and a movement rate at higher levels that's better than boots of speed. Monks level up quickly, but are kinda delicate to start with, but no more so than a cleric and a monk will quickly become your most devastating attacker! My monk finished SoA at 33lvl. He had the best armor class -16, most attacks per round at 4, and did the most damage (other than Saravok's Deathbringer Assault). None of the other kits really appealed to be because of the drawbacks. To me the monk is the only character who's bonuses are balanced with drawbacks. Play a monk, and wave goodbye to those who would oppose your will ------------------ "The Martyr" (excerpt) There is sobbing of the strong, And a pall upon the land; But the People in their weeping Bare the iron hand: Beware the People weeping When they bare the iron hand. --Herman Melville (written after the assasination of President Abraham Lincoln) |
