Atlantica Gold is needed. In parts one and two, we discussed the strength of Guard Dispel and Dispel Scrolls as well as modifications to Holy Guard, Awakening, and overall PvP balance. In part three, we will go a step further by bringing dramatic changes to battle mechanics, including several new ways to modify the behavior of Holy Guard.
As this is already in development in Korea, I will not go into this in detail. New mercenaries such as Enchantress and the Punisher will be receiving monk-like abilities. Based on semi-accurately translated information, it seems that the Enchantress will be receiving a column purification skill and the Punisher will be receiving a single-effect awakening skill.
While more mercenaries like this will definitely decrease the prevalence of double monk somewhat, they may not decrease the prevalence enough as none of the skills directly affect Holy Guard. Players could replace one monk with these new mercenaries; however, they could replace neither monk, simply adding them to the DMF.
