Initiate defense boost skill
I have a suggestion for the skill, seeing how it's almost useless. Why not change the skill to where it can be used to restore the hp of towers/auras. The skill is nice yes if you don't have the buff towers or anyone with guardians, but I could see it being used a lot more and a bit more usefull if it did restore hp. Could be changed for just hp or have hp restoring effect added to what it does already.

Useless?... Wat?...But it already heals?... Okay, I'm just going to clarify things.

The Monk is THE most powerful class in the game during waves.

It's the most overpowered skill in the entire game. It increases damage done by all towers in the area up to around 250% at 3,000. There's a massive advantage in nightmare It increases my lightning auras from 41,000 per 0.03 seconds to 96,000 per 0.03 seconds. It makes my archers go from 230,000 damage per arrow to over 500,000. It also slowly restores health to affected defenses.

His Hero Boost ability is just as strong with similiar effects and it increases the damage from pets as well as allied Heroes.

Also, the Tower Buff Beam from the Series EV acts as a guardian... It increases a towers Damage Resistance, Range, Speed, and Damage. It's all around better than a guardian and it doesn't stack with them. The effects are just as great as well.

And yes, the Monk Defense Boost and Series EV Tower Buff Beam stacks.

Infact, the Tower Buff Beam coupled with Strength Drain Auras are the secret to winning Nightmare Survival and this difficulty is eased immensely by the Defense Boost ability by easily doubling tower damage.

What game are you playing?

Obviously a different game then you are, last I checked the defense boost and buff beams don't stack. Hell even the wiki said they do not stack..

I have 1,500 hours played. I have 91% of achievements... They stack... You can easily test this yourself. Guardians won't stack but Defense Boost will.

Ok small correction it's the Initiate's one, female monk version. Went back in game and even went back in game to check cause I swore up and down that my buff beams were not stacking with the skill cause someone told me before that they stacked. So now is time to level up the male one. My suggestion still stands though, the skill for initiate needs to be changed up some lol

I agree with that completely. They can't live up to the Monk.
