Help: Mountain Stance Type Permanent Monk stance. Toggle with the same command. Unlock Monk level 1. Usage mountainstance Description The rooted Mountain Order stance. Mountain Stance is no longer a small low-level defense buff; it is a full melee combat package intended to remain relevant through the entire prestige road. Starting Package Before remort scaling or Class Legacy: +200 damage reduction +200 dodgeroll +3 one-hit +100 damroll -10 combat speed +100 Melee Power +150 Major Wound +12 Critical The stance scales directly with Monk remorts. One-hit rises at 500 and 1500, and combat speed improves at 700, 1250, and 1750. Stone Root, Mountain Without Walls, The Mountain Endures, Stone Prayer, and Last Mountain add further bonuses. Mountain Body Damage Control Mountain Stance also has a true DAMCON-style percentage defense lane. It starts at 25 percent incoming normal-damage reduction. Stone Root, Tempered Bones, Unbroken Line, Stillness in Ruin, Mountain Without Walls, Body as Weapon, The Mountain Endures, Stone Prayer, and Last Mountain deepen that structure until the percentage lane caps at 55 percent. This is separate from the visible +Damage Reduction rating above. The visible rating is flat reduction; Mountain Body is percentage mitigation inside the normal damage-reduction pipeline. TRUE/bypass damage keeps its normal bypass behavior. Mountain Stance and Redirect are mutually exclusive. Using Mountain Stance removes Redirect. Use mountainstance again to release it. Damage Synergy Mountain Stance also adds 5 percent to the Monk's long-road technique damage calculation and improves the Iron Breath sustain lane.
