'''Wave of Light''' is a [[Monk]] Tier 7 [[Monk skills|skill]] unlocked at [[clvl|character level]] 26. The Monk summons a mystical bell to demolish his enemies.
==Skill Design==
This [[skill]] first appeared at [[BlizzCon 2010]]. <br>
Wave of Light has potential to do massive damage in narrow corridors and other claustrophobic areas of the game. One of the very apparent downsides to the skill is that it takes a second or so to cast. The Monk summons the bell in an animation, and then he strikes the bell before it flies away from him. There is a sizable pause between activating the skill and the bell flying outwards to damage enemies.
This skill was first shown at [[BlizzCon 2010]], although due to the level required to purchase the skill, it was not playable in the demo. [[Wyatt Cheng]] spoke briefly about it<ref>[http://diablo.incgamers.com/blog/comments/diablo-3-gameplay-panel-transcript/P2/ Diablo 3 Gameplay Panel Transcript] - Incgamers 23/10/10</ref>:<br>
<blue>Wave of Light. He summons a mystical bell that he shoots out at range. It's kind of a combination of a melee and ranged attack. One of the things that I really like about this skill is that we need to differentiate the Barbarian from the Monk, they are both melee classes and in his case he's about combining mystic arts with martial arts and I like the evocative imagery that happens here. The concept of a mystical bell that he fires off, it's very vivid. </blue><br><br>
The bell itself threw some players off at first, but bells are a mainstay throughout temples in history. It is an easy association to make with a monk. What is curious, however, is that the skill description from BlizzCon 2010 for Wave of Light does not mention the bell at all. The player who chooses this skill may have a bit of a surprise on their hands.
