[QUOTE="Hedgemage, post: 154744, member: 403"] I have a player who runs a monk in my campaign, and though the monk has absolutely amazing stats, and good magic items, he keeps getting severely beatten and is rather impotent in a fight. I've never played a monk myself, so I was wondering if you folks had some good advice or tricks that I could pass along to my player. The monk's stats are as follows: Human Monk 14 Str 18 Dex 22 (via magic item) Con 16 (via magic item) Int 13 Wis 20 (via magic item) Cha 12 HP 130, AC 27 (+6 dex, +5 wis, +3 Bracers of Armor, +1 ring, +2 innate) Unarmed attacks: +14/+11/+8/+5 Unarmed damage: 1d12+4 Skills: Balance +25, Climb +13, Diplomacy +13, Escape artist +16, Hide +9, Intuit Direction +6, Jump +23, Listen +8, Move Silently +21, Search +3, Spot +6, Swim +6, Tumble +25 Feats: Dodge, Mobility, Spring Attack, Great Fortitude, Lightning Reflexes, Improved Critical (Unarmed Strike) Misc. Magic items: Slippers of Spider Climb, Brooch of Shielding, Eyes of Doom, Gauntlets of Dex +4, Periapt of Wisdom +2, Belt of Con +4, Cloak of Resistance +1, a few other odds and ends mainly potions ____________________________________ Using the info here, and any simple spell combos using divine spells (no Wizard in the group), what kind of interesting things can this Monk do?
