Monk
Monk is a Mythic Nature Tank/Healer hero positioned in the front row. He is Nature’s primary frontline anchor, providing shields, sustain, and damage reduction bonds to the whole team. Monk arrives in Season 1 alongside Tidecaller and Altar Marshal, replacing Sage in the front row.

Monk is the #4 upgrade priority for Nature. While ranked lower than Tidecaller and Altar Marshal, traits matter more for Monk than they do for Tidecaller — invest in Monk’s traits (especially Crit Resistance) before Tidecaller’s. The recommended trait path is 16/16/16/10 with Crit Resistance as the priority stat.
Monk’s shields scale with minion health, meaning Tidecaller’s summons directly increase Monk’s shielding potential. This interdependence is one reason the two heroes synergize so well in the endgame formation.
Monk’s full skill details are being collected. Skill descriptions will be added when data becomes available.
Skills
Section titled “Skills”Monk’s kit focuses on absorbing damage and keeping allied heroes alive. His shield mechanic is tied to the health of allied summons (particularly Tidecaller’s minions), making him more effective the longer the battle runs — consistent with Nature’s overall endurance strategy.
| Bond | Heroes | Effect |
|---|---|---|
| Tidal Pact | Monk + Pixie + Tidecaller | Damage Reduction −15% |
| Forest Shield | Monk + Altar Marshal | Damage Reduction +9–15% |
Monk participates in both of Nature’s endgame defensive bonds. Running both simultaneously gives the team a combined 24–30% damage reduction, which is central to how Nature outlasts opponents.
Recommended: Fury of Blood — Monk is a pure frontline tank. HP is the only stat that matters; he needs to stay alive long enough for Nature’s scaling to kick in.
Traits
Section titled “Traits”Monk benefits more from traits than almost any other Nature hero. Crit Resistance is the top priority — it makes a significant difference when fighting crit-heavy opponents from Horde and League. The recommended investment path is 16/16/16/10 before shifting trait resources to Tidecaller.
Monk is part of the Nature faction. See the full Nature guide for team compositions and upgrade priorities.
