'MONK THROW' Syntax: throw Monks are able to use their opponent's body weight against them to perform powerful throws. The application of the technique depends on how ready the opponent is for the throw. There are two possible outcomes of the throw. Ogoshi: This is a simple hip toss. The opponent will be thrown prone. It is a short, quick throw with the fall being easily broken. This is the typical throw you will perform against reactive targets such as player characters and certain monsters. Uki goshi: This is an advanced, rolling throw technique. The opponent will be airborne and unable to attack for quite some time, land heavily, and be further winded by the fall. This fall also leaves the opponent vulnerable to the rising dragon technique learned by master monks. The uki goshi is reserved for NPC's and for against players who have left themselves incredibly open to the throw, such as by attempting to wind up an overhead crush, or having missed a bash. In the case of a missed bash, the monk will still need to act VERY quickly to capitalize on the opening for the uki goshi.
