Battleheart Legacy expert hints and tips - Monk skill tree

Plus, how to find the monk

| Jun 5, 2014

In Battleheart Legacy, you never need to restrict yourself to one of type RPG class.

Thanks to a deep and flexible skill set, your hero can learn traits, abilities, and special moves from a huge range of different warriors - and then mix them up for a completely personalised skill sheet.

But there's no way of knowing what skills you can learn from each master, until you dump a bunch of coins in their coffers and boost the required skills.

Which is where we come in, with a complete skill tree from each class.

In this article, we'll look at monks - unarmed fighters who channel inner power to achieve feats of speed and power. You'll need strength and dexterity to learn these abilities.

Willow the monk trainer is hanging out in the tavern in the capital city. Before you enter, open your stats page (tap on your head in the left corner) and remove any weapons except for gloves.

Talk to the monk inside and ask for a lesson. She'll notice that you're unarmed and request a fight. Accept, and beat her up. She's quite tough, so bring plenty of skills and potions.

Reduce her health by half and the monk will agree to teach you her skills. Here's everything she can teach you…
