In the post-patch thread here, Talisker mentions "good luck finding your new abilities"

Anyone find any yet?  I've been swamped with school work before spring breaks so I haven't had the chance to get on much.

Jaxinor 42 dragon style (/yawn)

I don't know, maybe is coincidence or an aspect of monk rescues that I was just unaware of, but...

When someone in my party screams in pain (i.e. their health goes low, less than 25% or something like that), my finishing abililities "light up" (thier outline shimmers in the UI) and I can use them seemingly regardless of previous abilities used.  These seem to chain because as long as the party member's health remains low, other abilities light up after using the first.

I was thinking that this might be how our new abilities are activated.  If so, they might be similar to Disciple endowment chains.  The unfortunate part is that the chain goes away when the party member is healed, so I've never "finished" one, if they are indeed endowment chain-like.  So unless your with either a really good healer (who leaves your party member unhealed on purpose for you to chain) or a really crappy healer (who doesn't notice a party member in desperate need for a heal), we may never know.

If any of this is true, it's the same issue as with gaining a Paladin Virtue points, really.  With healers not having a complete heal, there's just no incentive for them to allow someone's health to get that low on a consistant basis like there was in EQ.  They are being mana efficient when they heal their defensive at 50% life.

Anyway, I'll make an effort to look through the combat logs if/when I notice the phenomena again.

hmmm ra'jin stronghold maby? its lower level but the only place that I know of so far. maby even blighted lands, i think they may be monks too.  Again though they are pre 20.

on martok in khevenor there is a monk section that has monks in training... kind of like you would see at your monk trainer. Maybe i'll try and kill those goblins for a while and test it.

well if its based off the class of the mob its not hard to find warrior, healer, ranger,psi, etc type mobs... monk type mobs are limited however it may not even be based off class type mobs at all.  Another thing is I bet it helps to have high intelligence to learn things... i have very low intelligence as I have avoided that skill all together

I would say it is based off of class of mob, because members of my guild have learned things from certain mobs, that I haven't.

I can now 100% confirm it is based off of class of mob.  Several members of my guild have learned new abilities by going to mobs, named of their class:  ie:  Rajin Warrior, Rajin Disciple, etc.

However, the only "monk" named mobs are Lv10-11.  Anyone have ANY ideas?

I was about to make a post regarding this with your name in it.  Any confirmation that monk mobs do exist over lv10, and the chunk that they exist in would be great.  That wouldn't give out entirely the secrets behind it, but would give us an idea of where do look with the 500000000 chunks out there.  Thanks QTM!
