'''Way of the Hundred Fists''' is a [[Monk]] Tier 4 [[Monk skills|skill]] unlocked at [[clvl|level]] 1021. Enhances the combat speed of the Monk significantly, allowing him to pound his enemies to dust.
This is one of the [[combo]] skills available to the Monk. Combo skills generate spirit.
|name= Way of the Hundred Fists
|user= Monk
|description= A fast series of attacks strikes enemies in front of the Monk.
|type= [[AoE]] [[Damage]]/[[Combo]]
[[Combo]] skills are the cornerstone for Monks. Combos do bonus damage, grant special properties (i.e. lightning damage and interrupt attacks on Hands of Lightning), and build up the [[Spirit]] needed to cast other skills. All combos have three stages, each progressively more powerful and flashier.

==Trait Synergies==Various [[Monk traits]] augment this skill. (Since most Monk skills depend on base weapon damage and probably attack speed, traits which enhance those, and not the skill specifically, are also listed here.)* No [[Precisionsynergies]]: Increase melee damage for each point in dexterity.* [[Intimidation]]: Increases damage done and reduces vendor costs.* [[Cruelty]]: Increases chance with any of critical strikes.* the [[Weak Spotpassive skill]]: Increases critical strike damage.* [[Rapid Strikes]]: Increases attack speed.* [[Frenzied Attacks]]: Increases chance of critical strikes as well as their damage.'''Note:''' The current [[trait]] list is very out-of-date and will no doubt be overhauled before game releases are yet known.
<blockquote>''It was unnecessary, as well as Hands of Lightning was doing, but I wanted to compare the two. I hadn’t really noticed the skill levels at that point, and soon regretted my choice, since rank one Hundred Fists wasn’t nearly as effective as rank five HoL. Hundred Fists was more fun and flashier, with the Superman dashing first punch, and the ability to hit multiple enemies at once, but with just one point the damage was considerably lower than Hands of Lightning.</blockquote>
Skill tiers were removed for the July 2011 Press Event, and Way of the Hundred Fists became a level 21 skill.
