[QUOTE="Dannyalcatraz, post: 4913421, member: 19675"] I won't reiterate my love of Githzerai monks and oversized monks, but there are good ways to be a small monk too. If you're a small monk- say, a Halfling- go with a Dex/Wis build. Use ranged weapons as much as possible- the Quiver of Ehlonna should be among your first magical acquisitions. The Halfling will get a bonus with almost every Monk ranged weapon. Your job will be to help control the battlespace via ranged pokery, disrupting the spellcasters and softening the meleers before they get to your front line. Instead of going for grappling, max out your Stunning Fist. And go for trips. A prone foe is an easier target for everyone in your party. In addition, the more supplements you have access to, the more fun you have. In DCv1, for instance, you find Ring the Golden Bell, which lets you burn Stunning Fist attempts to deliver your unarmed strikes- and anything stacked on them- at range. This is especially cool if you're playing a multiclassed Monk/Sorc (via Ascetic Mage feat). [/QUOTE]
