CyberInferno’s Monk Balance Adjustments

✨ **Welcome to the Monk’s Way of Balance! ** This mod aims to tweak this powerful frontline healer/damage dealer to be more balanced with other characters in the game while retaining its "spiritual warrior" feel of crushing monster skulls all the way.

Special note: This mod also provides more convenient access for players like me who purchase games through third-party platforms such as GOG (not Steam).
