[QUOTE="Jarval, post: 2470495, member: 421"] D'oh! I forgot about the RG thread. I was going from your stats posted earlier in this thread... There are a few issues with bonuses on your character: [list][*]The [i]Boots of Swiftness[/i] provide an enhancement bonus to Dexterity, as do the [i]Gloves of Dexterity[/i]. Bonuses of the same type (with the exception of unnamed bonuses and dodge bonuses) do not stack, so only the better of the two bonuses would apply. The same also applies to the insight bonuses from [i]dark foresight[/i] and the Sacred Fist class, and to the deflection bonuses from the [i]Ring of Ineffable Evil[/i] and [i]magic circle against good[/i]. You've got similar problems with the bonuses on your saves. [*]However, the monk's Wisdom and level bonuses to AC are unnamed, not insight, and so stack with anything.[/list] On the money front, I'd suggest buying items to boost all (or as many as you can, item slots allowing) of your ability scores. 36,000 gp for a +6 to a stat really isn't much in a game at this level. Wands, staffs and scrolls are also worth looking into for spells that aren't too dependant on caster level. Needless to say, this works best for utility spells such as [i]invisibility[/i] or [i]spider climb[/i]. [/QUOTE]
