Way of the Four Elements: Difference between revisions

'''Way of the Four Elements''' is one of the [[Monk#Level%203|subclasses]] of [[Monk|monk]]. These monks are more specialized in using their {{SmallIcon|Monk_Ki_Icon.png}} Ki to channel the elements to influence the battlefield. Rather than focusing on physical techniques that the other Monk subclasses focus on, Way of the Four Elements focuses on abilities that mimic [[Wizard]] spells, turning monks into a hybrid spellcaster.
