[QUOTE="Scion, post: 1475237, member: 5777"] Depends on the wealth level of the campaign really, but as with any low point buy game, characters who need more than one stat at all will be more hosed that those who can get by on less ;) Str 14 Dex 14 Con 14 Wis 14 Int 10 Cha 10 --- 28 point buy character, nicely rounded really. (int and cha can be moved around to taste). As this character goes up in levels instead of buying a weapon they will buy stat boosters. instead of buying armor they will get bracers of armor and such. In the end it will work out about the same ;) Not nearly as 'kill them all' as a guy with 18 str? well duh, that isnt the monks job anyway. The character given above will be able to do many things pretty well to well. If you are going to play a monk learn how to pick your strengths wisely, learn how to get to where you want to be with good item placement and feat choices. It can be done! Sure it may take a bit of thinking and planning, but that certainly isnt a bad thing ;) Some people even enjoy that sort of thing more. [/QUOTE]
