I'm curious to see what style everyone plans on becoming at level 15 and why.

I'm pretty sure I'll be going Harmonous. It seems like a great style to not absolutely be the dps'er of a group, but a style that would help to fully maximize the group. It should be fun.

So, what style do you plan on choosing and why?

I am also planning on going Harmonious. I have a level 15 Harmonius Monk in Beta and I believe they will be a better aid to group play with their debuff abilities. I haven't gotten past 15, nor am I going to in beta, but this outlook on it may change as  I progress through the levels.

Just my 2 cents. I dont know all the abilities each discipline has but by looking at only the description it seems that Harmonious sounds more suited to group play imo.

I personally tried all 3 for a bit before I decided that the Harmonious Path was for me at release. For me and my play style it seemed the obvious choice as I have a regular group with all the DPS it could ever need already. So my choice to suppliment the group with the Harmi abilities was really easy.

Ample, would you mind giving those of us who haven't played them all that high an overview of the difference?  Perhaps something that I can include in the FAQ?

Yes, please, any further info would be great!

It is a scary thing to choose something you are stuck with. Although it shouldn't take too long to hit level 15, I want to have a good understanding of what my choices really are.

True, but I'm more concerned with finding out at 50  Grin

wow if u could do that it would be gr8. i think for solo grinding and out of group lvling then dragon style is best cos u get the most damage with the most time the mob is stunned or out of action in some way. plus u can take on more than 1 mob at a time

The Roleplayer side of me will force me to play a Drunken Boxing goblin monk.  Love the Jackie Chan movie and love goblins.  /shrug, what can I do?

Are you stuck to one style once you choose it?

I thought I heard you can change your style when you want to.  Iwould assume it would just take doing the quest for that specific style you are switching to that you would normally do at level 15.

Any info on this would be great.

While I can't say I'm positive, I thought I had heard otherwise; that you can't switch. Clarification on this matter would be great  Huh?

I have read several times that you are not stuck with your style choice. not sure how it will be handled though. My first choice was to go Dragon style..course that was when i was going to be an orc..but as a human im not so sure. Ill prob start with dragon and see how it works out. drunken sounds good but i think every other monk and their brothers barber will be drunken...

Dragon Monk, I like to kill things, so it is pretty simple.  It also seems to be the best for PvP IMO and the Spirit Form seems really cool.
