[QUOTE="MadLordOfMilk, post: 4786498, member: 77691"] Humans, Elves, and Razorclaw Shifters seem like the way to go. Humans are even, arguably, the best option (or at least close to it) if versatility's your thing, given that there's actually a choice to be made between at-wills, as opposed to one being a good "default option" with others fitting in various situations :D PP-wise: Moonstalker (the shifter PP) seems to mesh really, really well with monks :) Mechanically, that is. Adroit Explorer also works quite well, but it's awesome for any class. Twilight Guardian doesn't key off of dex though, so that's not much of an option for Elves. I think the Full Discipline description is fine; it was quite clear to me. An in-play example might be a good idea, though. On Dance of the Stinging Hornet: awesome concept for a power! :) [s]Breaking the grab will be an interesting situation, though. DEX is of course going to be quite high, so them doing an Acrobatics vs Reflex to escape probably wouldn't work incredibly well. Athletics vs Fortitude might succeed with some better regularity though as there's not much reason to pump CON and this version doesn't have the STR monk in it. Should be fine anyway, but it does seem like it's a power sliiightly better suited for the STR monk, yet in the WIS preview.[/s] EDIT: Nevermind, Centered gets a +fort bonus, forgot about that...
