Hopefully it can heal a bit too, id like to see a soft trinity of sorts come back so that we are able to see more interesting combat mechanics and encounters.
A hand-to-hand combatant would be amazing. I’ve been hoping that they eventually release something of the sort too.
Toons: Foreseer, Geikamir, Rapscallion, Specimen, Scythian, Zeau, Ärtifact, and Replica.
Hopefully it can heal a bit too.
Virtually all classes can serve as a soft-healer specced right. (Mesmer through mantras and boons. Guardians through boons and marks. Warrior through shouts and banners. Rangers through… uh, well they can. Elementalist with water magic, thieves have a couple skills, Engys with elixir gun and healing turret amongst other things).
People just make healing a dump stat so the heals seem weak but they can be quite significant made a focus attribute

Will GW2 ever get a monk-style class? Unarmed combat?
I’d love to play a Shaolin monk styled fighter
……this isnt WoW. maybe they will get something similar, like a martial arts class, with cool looking hand/arm weapons, but yea not a monk, this game has pride as far as i can tell.

You do realize the Monk class has been around long before WoW right? Stop comparing things to WoW just cause WoW has it. WoW wasn’t the first you know.
On topic, I wouldn’t mind a Monk class. Especially with the style of combat mechanics GW2 utilizes, it would fit in nicely. I would like to see something like the DDO Monk though. I think they did a nice job with the Monk.

this is true, but you do understand that the monk class just came out and BOOM here you have it, an idea referencing something that WoW has. it made me laugh. when you like a game over another, but you see that other game has a cool new feature you want the game you like to have it too. lol thats where my comment originated from.

But you make the assumption that just cause WoW has it, the OP must be referring to WoW. And it didn’t really just come out. We knew WoW would have a Monk class back in mid 2011 (when it was announced).
The Monk has been around since old school table top gaming and even before that. It has been featured in Diablo and DDO along with several other games, before it even was mentioned in WoW. People have suggested a Monk class for GW2 for awhile now, even before the game was released and before even Cataclysm was around.
Just because some other game recently made a Monk class, doesn’t mean any suggestion about Monks derives from WoW now. That’s like saying because we want Cantha back, that means we want Pandaria because WoW did it recently with the asian theme.
All I’m saying basically is, don’t assume you know what someone is talking about based off your own personal thoughts. Because honestly, the WoW style Monk kind of sucks lol.

They took it off because it was the healer class – squishy and weak, but with powerful defensive buffs and heals. The guardian is the spiritual successor to GW1’s monk to all intents and purposes; trading off raw healing power for heavy armour and decent damage output to bring it in line with the GW2 design ethos.
