Unlike its little brother Chant, the high level ability, Prayer differs greatly by its cleric counterpart. Prayer gives the Monk powerful physical protections for a very short time. It sets the Slashing, Piercing, Crushing and Missile resistances to 80%, and increases Fire, Cold, Lightning resistances by 25%. There is a price for such protection however: by focusing ki-energies against all types physical attacks, the monk's innate magic resistance will be nullified until this state expires. The effects of this ability last for 2 rounds. Multiple Chants are not cumulative.
