After several months of waiting, Conquer Online’s new class, the Monk, is finally ready for its international debut. The highly anticipated Kung-fu Monk is scheduled to be fully unveiled this Christmas season, but a few details have already been revealed.
Stemming from the legends of ancient China, the concept of the Kung-fu Monk was first inspired by the legendary Shaolin Monastery, which has always been considered a sacred Electronic Theatre Imageand powerful order in the oriental world. The high priests of the Shaolin temple researched and devised many unique and powerful martial arts styles, which include boxing, pole arts, spear arts, sword arts, and so on.

Now the legend continues in the world of Conquer Online. Striving to be kind and selfless, the Monk order has been engaging in devotional meditation for thousands of years. They always try to maintain separation from the outside world, in order to keep their focus on achieving enlightenment and higher states of being. But now, evil has declared war against the world, and the wave of darkness has reached their very doorstep. It is the time they return to the world they once knew, but left behind so long ago...
Compared with other melee classes, the Monk class in Conquer Online is a great combination of strong close–hand combat and magical support.
