D&D 3E/3.5 [3.5] Ki Strike question

Thanks!

I did find this:

Which means that you can get Ki Strike (Lawful) without being a Monk 10...but you still have to be a 10th level PC.

(And as soon as I find where the Initiate of Pistis Sophia is located, I may have to add it to the DB.)

Sadly, IoPS has Sanctify Ki Strike as a req, which in turn has Ki Strike (lawful) as a req, so it's not possible to get into IoPS without 10 levels of Monk to begin with...

Only PrC that grants Ki Strike that I can find is Enlightened Fist, but does not grant Ki Strike (lawful).

@ Bungo_Underhill - yeah, trying to qualify for Sanctify Ki Strike.

I'm not sure on getting it earlier than 10th, but if you take the Ascetic Stalker feat from Complete Scoundrel, your monk and ninja levels stack to determine your unarmed damage and the benefits of your Ki Strike class feature.

Cool, not sure it will help with what I'm trying to do, but nice pickup anyway!

Hmmm- good catch. Guess Pax has some 'splainin' to do.

To be honest, I would have thought the Ascetic Knight feat of all things would help with the Ki Strike progression, especially for the lawful bit. It's a freaking Monk/Paladin multiclass after all.

With some help, I found a way to get Ki Strike (lawful) without Monk 10 (or Monk/Ninja Ascetic Stalker): Monk of the Enabled Hand PrC (Dragon Magazine Compendium) gets it at level 2, so theoretically achievable by ECL 6.
