So I have played the game before with a Solo Thief. It wasn't too hard since Thieves have a good mix of useful skills, especially Alchemy.

I am now considering the Monk class. Is it doable?

I read rumors somewhere that the Arms master skill does absolutely nothing with Unarmed. Can somebody confirm this? If so, I can't imagine how the Monk's recovery rate could be reduced significantly.

If anything, the Knight should be miles ahead with lower recovery + higher damage from the Arms master skill.

So has anyone performed solo Monk game?
MM7 can be soloed by any class with enough patience...

It is truly so. Armsmaster Skill gives no benefit if your character wields no weapon.
IIRC, it may be used with a staff and GrandMaster Unarmed skill.

Well, the Monk looks really weak now.

So the only way to get your recovery close to 0 with Monk is to use a staff + GM unarmed and a truck load of skill points into Armsmaster. And I mean a TRUCK LOAD. Because the recovery rate for Staff is 100 if I recall. Spears are 80. Swords are 90. Daggers are 60.

I think I'll pass. Knight + Spear FTW.

I don't like the idea of dual-wielding, since it worked horribly in MM6. Perhaps it got fixed in MM7?

Yes, it did.
