An Entity of Type : owl:Thing, within Data Space : 134.155.108.49:8890 associated with source dataset(s)

A generally derogatory term for characters with the primary profession Warrior and secondary Monk, reminiscent of the Paladin archetype found in many RPG's. Often used as a synonym to describe a player who doesn't understand the basics of the game. This profession combination is no less effective than any other Warrior secondary, but the poor performance and relative commonality of the Healing Prayers Warriors have created a sour feeling around Warrior Monks. The stereotypical "whammo" using Mending is still a common joke among Guild Wars players.

  • A generally derogatory term for characters with the primary profession Warrior and secondary Monk, reminiscent of the Paladin archetype found in many RPG's. Often used as a synonym to describe a player who doesn't understand the basics of the game. The term "wammo" comes from the phonetical pronunciation multi-class combination of W/Mo, or Wa-Mo, while the harsher version "whammo" carries a slightly more negative connotation. Whammo is derived from the sound "wham", which simulates the sound of a slammed door, implies the focus on brute force and lack of tactics and skill, a major concern with wammos. This profession combination is no less effective than any other Warrior secondary, but the poor performance and relative commonality of the Healing Prayers Warriors have created a sour feeling around Warrior Monks.
