The Dwarf monk is a standard enemy that can be found in Caves and Dwarven City.

It has a 1/30 probability to spawn as a mutated Senior monk.

Description

Monk gif
Dwarf monk
These monks are fanatics, who devoted themselves to protecting their city's secrets from all aliens. They don't use any armor or weapons, relying solely on the art of hand-to-hand combat.

Behavior

Although they walk normally, they use fast martial art techniques and will attack twice for every single attack made by the player. Occasionally they will knock the player's weapon out of their hands, and onto the ground. Sometimes they can do this multiple times in a row, making them very dangerous and annoying enemies, because every time the player picks up and puts on his weapon they will have chance to hit them (and knock the weapon out of your hands again. Use caution when multiple monks are in the area.

Special notes

  • 2 attacks per turn.
  • Chance to knock the weapon out of the player's hands (except knuckledusters and cursed weapons).
  • If a Senior monk hits you, there is a chance you will be paralyzed.

Tips

  • If more than one monk approaches you, try to get in a corridor or behind a door so you can kill them one by one.
  • If you see a monk from far away use ranged weapons or wands to lower his health before they get into melee range.
  • Dwarf monks can’t kick your weapon if you are using a knuckleduster! It would be a good idea to carry one around in case you encounter a Dwarf monk.
