Maybe you could ask our friendly DM to use the pathfinder monk?

It get's a lot of little tweaks that imho go a long way towards fixing the monk.

That's what you get for being a silly-goose and not wearing armor!
:wink:


I prefer that unarmored characters be at something of a disadvantage in toe-to-toe battle with armored foes. I don't think of monks and similiar 'light' types as 'front-row fighters' at all. I'd place the monk closer to the rogue in combat terms: an opportunist who strikes at weak points. Use mobile tactics to avoid getting stuck slugging it out with better protected enemies.

No to the Pathfinder Monk, sorry. But I would not object too strenuously to one of the classes from Tome of Battle.

Hey Rock,

I sent you a PM some time ago with a proposition for an adaptation of Monk. I'd like to know what you think before I actually make the sheet for my character. :)

Sorry I got sidetracked for a while. ^^;

Ahem. Keep the Slow Fall; quick reflexes can help to find handholds and footholds to slow down a fall. I'd prefer you remove Loa Power and Loa Command. Other than that, all seems fine.

Thanks,

I'm not at home fo the remainder of the week, and my internet access is very poor. Also next week I'll be on holidays with NO computer, so I can only get back to you around the 9th of June. Anyway, I'll take your advice and send you a sheet when I come back.

Thanks.

Once Zamedi's sheet is in... we shall begin.
Provided all the people who showed interest at the start still want to play? ;)
