Purity of Body, Diamond Soul, and Empty Body is falling off? This is before subclass powers.
Have you read the cleric class, recently?. If high level monk abilities "Fall off"....Cleric abilities must count as a plummet.
Yes Empty Body is 18th level, but if you happen to play in a group that plays in that bracket, this ability is awesome. The monk was a dwarven Long Death monk...played like a Warhammer Trollslayer.
An Invisible monk, that gets 18 a Temp HP per kill, takes half damage from most things, and can stop themselves from dying up to 18 times.....was impressive.
Yeah, most of those abilities are good, but damage-wise a Monk starts falling way far behind at 11th level, and Purity might never come up, leaving you until at least level 14 until you get Diamond Soul, with a lot of abilities that simply are... average at best (Tongue of the Sun and Moon can be cool, but isn't exactly mind-blowing either)
