[QUOTE="Drawmack, post: 3242667, member: 4981"] 1) Why would a monk be using a knife, they are much more deadly with their bare hands? 2) At 20th level a monk gets 5 attacks, using flurry of blows at +15/+15/+15/+10/+5 and they do 2d10 damage with 2x on a crit. So if he hits with the three best hits and crits on one of them you're looking at average damage of 5 x 8 = 40 points of damage without a str bonus. While not lethal to a 20th level PC is should make them say WTF. 3) Also don't forget that your 20th level PC is not going to be able to kill the 20th level monk goblin in 1 rould either. Imaging your fighter's face when he does 40+ points of damage and just pisses off of the goblin. Seriously give this a try. You don't even have to do it that often.
