[QUOTE="doctorbadwolf, post: 8242144, member: 6704184"] Edit: for clarity, the monk benefits more than most from things that increase the impact of a crit, and things that just make every single attack better. What is the most reliable source of; Increased crit damage and/or chance to crit? So, reliable advantage, increased crit range, items that deal more damage when you crit, etc? and Extra damage per attack, per damage roll, etc.? Because it's really easy to get a use of hex or hunter's mark with a feat, but that's once per day. MC Paladin (Vengeance) is three levels of a class that has a major stat that the monk doesn't, but it does get you spell slots, smite, and oath of emnity. Cha 13 isn't hard to do if you roll stats, but otherwise trying to have even non-dumped cha on top of good dex, wis, and reasonable con, is...rough. 1 level of Hexblade gets 1/SR extra damage per attack and better crit range, but still suffers the MAD problem. I don't really know about clerics or druids, do they have any low level feature options that would add to the Monk's per attack damage and/or increase crit frequency? Fighter is a really good MC for Monks, with a few really good ways to go. BM lets you choose to use a SD when you hit, which makes each hit count more, and Champion gives you the expanded crit range, while level 1 and 2 is just really good for fighter. Is there something missing here that could be a feat that would help the monk, but not be OP for other classes? [/QUOTE]
