I want to take him into psionics routes and my DM is happy with Monks freely multiclassing.The big choice I've got is whether to dip in and out of Psywar, or wait a while longer and try and go for Fist of Zuoken prestige class.The big downside of the prestige class route is that you need to have the Wild Talent feat which I can't take until 6th level, making 7th level the earliest I could get into the prestige class. The Prestige class has the advantage of full monk speed increases and unarmed damage progression (and faster power acquisition with more pp gained too). It has the disadvantage of not getting any psionic feats (like the unarmed version of psionic weapon or unavoidable touch) until 9th level at least.On the other hand, taking a level of PsyWar at 5th opens up the possibility of gaining a psionic feat at 5th and another two psionic feats at 6th (one of which could be the wild talent feat needed to continue to enter the prestige class at 7th if I wished but that effectively costs another BAB point). The overall plan on the PsyWar route would be to take no more than 4 levels of Psywar, switching back to monk once Hustle was available. So, ENworld - what do you think? What would be the best option to go for?n.b. I'm thinking that a jolly good first power to take (whichever route) would be Expansion - the reach, grapple bonus and big damage boost seems like a real winner. Other strong candidates are Inertial Armour (good AC boost for a long while) or one of the precognition/prescience powers which affect hit/damage/AC. Any thoughts on that matter?Cheers</blockquote>
