All Monk Technologies Explained | AoE2

[@alijabevrnja4310]

Just a small note for the mathematicians out there. Hera is correct saying that Illumination will cut the faith regeneration in half (almost, from 62 to 33 sec). The tech tree has a mistake in it. It should say: "Monks and Missionaries regain their faith 87.5% faster after a successful conversion" not 50% since you need 100% faster refill to cut the time in half. Source: aoe2 wiki.

[@Vulture8888]

yeah that's just classic aoe 2 tooltips being god awful

[@neokonline_]

Yep, if it really was 50% faster as stated it would reduce the total recharge time only by 33% (1/1.50 total recharge time)

[@Vulture8888]

10:30 "ten monks worth of juice" 🤨

[@HeraAgeofEmpires2]

Monk juice is real, we cant waste it

[@LewisCostin]

@@HeraAgeofEmpires2 Monk juice sounds like a cool band name.

Yo Hera, thanks for the video. In the same genre, I would be really interested in a video regarding the ins & out of the market

[@geoffrey1955]

Next vid: monks follow up: the unique techs

[@mzil]

Good and informative video! However, I'm lacking unique technologies too, especially since the name of the video is "All Monk Technologies", not just "Monastery Technologies")

[@daarom3472]

Also missed him mentioning the use of speed ans HP for warrior priests and bohemian vils.

Love your analysis that you can back up with experience at the highest levels of play.

[@agustinfranco0]

Huns UT atheism should give a conversion resistance

[@coxandrewj]

Honestly makes more sense than the dumb relic thing. Huns typically don’t have a unit that is countered by monks anyway.

[@user-sl6gn1ss8p]

from the name, I think it would make the most sense if you lost access to your own monks as well

[@agustinfranco0]

@@user-sl6gn1ss8p LOL maybe monks become warriors of some kind, cant heal nor convert

[@HiyokoSupiritto]

I forgot the Siege Elephants can only be converted when the monks are close

[@praevasc4299]

I would have been nice to have a short summary at the end about which of these are universally available, and which are available to only few civs.

[@arthurgaillet1072]

"I recommend you pick heresy if you have elephants" so like if you're Malays ?

[@ns-islandsroblox]

11 because malay is the only elephant civ with heresy?

[@daarom3472]

yes

[@EmanuelWecker]

HEY CHAMP! I'VE BEEN PLAYING TEUTONS DEFENSIVE WITH TEUTONIC KIGHT, SOME RANGED UNIT(HAND CANNON), MONKS, (AT LEAST 10) WITH ALL TECHS. BACKING THE PUSH WITH SOME BOMBARD TOWER AND BOMBARD CANNON ITS JUST BEAUTIFULL. PLEASE DO IT SOME TIME.

[@sourathghosh5170]

6:42 Unfortunately Malay are the only elephant civ that get access to Heresy :(. Would personally not mind giving heresy to some more battle elephant civs.

[@neokonline_]

2:20 Guys! He's going for redemption... and monks, ok?

[@koningsbruggen]

i thought theocracy also had the benefit that a group of monks convert faster than a single monk. is that true?

[@skipper472]

Good question. I'd like to know the answer as well.

[@SupHip]

Each monk has their individual minimum and maximum time. The more monks you use, the higher the chance that one of them will finish the job early.

[@kOaMaster2]

No, there is no impact of theocracy. The group of monks is converting exactly the same "speed" as without.

[@amjadsalehabuturkey]

[@mikesully110]

Should they bring back the AOE1 tech Sacrifice - it means when your monks are wololo ing, if you delete your monk, you instantly get the conversion on the enemy unit. OP ???

[@arn0000]

lambo ?

[@luciangrand1943]

Post Devotion, I think monastery techs is more appropriate, as 4/11 now affect things besides monks.

[@ordinaryrat]

9/11 of the techs don’t affect monk range and monk health😢

[@vignesh4050]

Much better if you can explain what is pierce aromor + and - in those , attack and hp ?

[@Mattroid99]

In this case is conversion resistance. The baseline for most unit is 5 seconds minimum, 9 second maximum (And with appropriate upgrades/civ bonuses both numbers go up, with Devotion and Faith it bumps up to +9 min, +14 max)

[@Dnw15]

GOOD GAME

[@theshi3152]

im Surprised you say Redemption over Fervor. Fervor is my first monk Tech every time. Sanctity being second i usually dont get Redemption until Castle. the Gold demand is just to high. But your the pro not me lol.

Is it just me who knows how every ability works in any game I've played but still sucks at the game?

How do people micro monks? Do you select each monk individually and then a target?

[@ns-islandsroblox]

Yeah or "go to next idle military unit" hotkey, since monks are considered military units

[@ns-islandsroblox]

Or have 1 monk in each control group for control groups 4 to 9
