I might be wrong, but I'm pretty sure when I played as a monk last they had some special animations. I think there's at least a kicking one for one of the abilities...

Hello. I wanted to revive this post since it's something that also bothers me.

 

Since some time has past and we're near to release, can I once again ask: does the monk has any special animations?

 

I noticed that in the Icewind Dale Enhanced Edition, they gave the monks some kicks, which is awesome. Will PoE have this?

 

 

Yes, they have special animations now. If you find the archive video for the live stream that Josh just did, you can see them.
