D&D 3E/3.5 [3.5] Monk Magic Hands

[doktorstick]

Reading the scans for the new monk I notice that her Ki Strike is different:

4th Ki strike (magic)
10th Ki strike (lawful)
16th Ki strike (adamantine)

Each of the above entries also says "for the purpose of overcoming DR and doing damage". I don't know how that translates into a +X bonus for the monk; the revised PHB isn't clear.

What is the progression of the monk's +X bonus?

There is no +x bonus. 3.5e DR doesn't consider a weapon's enhancement bonus; it's either magic, or it's not.

(FWIW, 3.0e monks didn't get the +x bonus to attack or damage rolls; it was solely to overcome DR. So they haven't lost anything.)

And oh by the way, adamantine doesn't provide an enhancement bonus any more.
