The [[Monk]] transcends, calling the holy Light to gain supernatural speed, hitting multiple foes in the timespace of a second.
==Skill Design==
A very fun [[skill]]. Much like a finishing move in a fighter. [[Jay Wilson]] described it as "Human Chain Lightning."
The Monk teleports to his target, Dragon Flight style, and commences to strike multiple times. As best I could tell, the Monk was invulnerable, or perhaps intangible, during this attack. He's not visible except as flashing series of human shapes, all shining gold and two-dimensional. You can see a screenshot in this article, or see it featured in the Blizzcon B-roll gameplay footage. The evolution of the skill was described in detail during the Monk design panel as well.
==[[Trait Synergies]]==
[[File:Monk-7-sided-strike01.jpg|thumb|400px|Seven Sided Strike in action.]]
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.)
==[[Rune|Skill Rune]] Effects==* None No [[rune]] effects for Seven Sided Strike are known.
