Which follower to use with a monk

[:1]I was just wandering after I saw the new follower video I was just wandering which follower people would use with the monk and why.|||I think I'll end up going enchantress. She looks to have a bunch of offensive buff/debuffs, so she'll just sit on the side lines and let me do my thing.|||I think the templar could actually be pretty useful. The monk won't really need him (at least not in normal, though that's true of all classes/followers in Blizzard's bizarre implementation of the system) but a tank would be helpful in that lots of the monsters would cluster around the tank, thus letting the Monk pick and choose his targets.

You could do some really fun Massacre bonus stuff with the aid of a high hps, low dmg Templar. Just keep herding monsters in, get them to bunch around your merc, and tap a bunch of Exploding Palms on the attackers. Then, when something finally dies, you get an enormous chain reaction of blood novas.

That ability is one of my favorites in the game that I've seen so far. Load up a bunch of those and blow a few circles of wrath, some serious AoE there.|||Looks ****ing epic, I think I might do the same, I might try the templar out first|||Quote:

That image solidified my wanting to play a Monk first.
