Sneaky and manipulative, Shadowfists corrupt the teachings of Gorn to justify their sinister world view; The massacre of all those who stand against them through any means neccesary. They combine unarmed fighting with the dishonorable tactics usually favored by Rogues and Assassins. Like all Prestige Classes, they retain the original class's Prime Requisite, in this case, Dexterity. Shadowfists have strayed too far from the light to ever become Priests, like Monks can, but they can become Assassins, albeit later than Rogues. Shadowfists masters can sometimes be found training in inhospitable environs.

Abbreviation: Shf.

Base Class: Monk.

Prime Requisite: Dexterity.

Shadowfists in General

Shadowfists trade some good skills for their evil ones. Gain: a lifesteal and critical strike attack as well as rogue flee skills. Lose: all healing, status abnormality cure, and awen spells, also notably they lose arrow dodge. They don't get bear stance or transfer life. Also to take advantage of their hero101 skills they must train demonic intent which keeps them evil aligned.

Shadowfist Creation

Be evil aligned, be a monk and kill a monk in Sir Michael's Stronghold. You must have 18 base int at lowmort, or 20 int at hero. Any race can become a shf with the use of QP. Some popular choices are gargoyle and golem. Orc, ogr, or giant would also be good choices.

Fighting

Take advantage of your different stances as much as possible. I like to use emu stance in while my hp are at full, and start combat with a surprise attack, then kick like crazy. After losing 500-1000 hp, I will usually switch to vampire fang stance and start using vs in combat. Spectral stance is useful in areas where the mobs seem to parry more than usual.
