[QUOTE="auburn2, post: 8226476, member: 6855259"] Monks can take sharpshooter -5/+10 feats and use a short bow or crossbow using dedicated weapon or a Kensai with a longbow. Depending on your DM, this can also be used with thrown weapons like daggers or spears. This works really well as a Kensei with a long bow when combined with stunning strike. Use a BA stunning strike unarmed attack, if it fails, use flurry of blows and make another one. Then back up (no AOO because he is stunned) and make your two longbow attacks with advantage and -5/+10. You get another 2 longbow attacks with advantage to start the next turn and can add an additional 1d4 to both those using your BA if desired. The advantage more or less cancels out the -5. If you don't do Kensei, you could do this with a shortbow. If you use a crossbow and do not take XBE, you can do it with a crossbow but you would do it differently - you would do 1 regular unarmed attack, 1 martial arts bonus attack and then back up and make 1 -5/+10 crossbow attack.
