The Monk is an advanced class in Heroes of Might and Magic IV. It requires specialization in Life Magic and Order Magic.
Due to having already one of these skills, Mages and Priests are likely candidates for this class.
Effect[]
A Monk has Chaos ward at all times, which makes them 50% resistant to Chaos spells, and increases melee and ranged defense by 50% against Chaos-aligned opponents.

The Monk has the following priorities to learn secondary skills:
- 4: Life Magic and Order Magic, as well as all of their related skills, have a priority of 4.
