[QUOTE="Baron Von StarBlade, post: 656172, member: 1522"] One thing that you keep saying but I don't think you're getting. The Ki Strike ability does [b]not[/b] add bonuses to hit or damage it only allows the monk to bypass DR x/+4. Therefore in your example above the Fighter would be doing an average of 11 points of damage a hit where a monk would be doing 10 (I know this is statistically correct, but you get the picture). Sorry if anyone pointed this out already but I didn't finish the thread yet ;) Anyways, I'll jump in here on the Monks are wussies bandwagon. I remember when I was making my first 3e char I was playing a human monk thinking about how great this guy would be. Low and behold he sucked wind because he could hit anything since I didn't dump any points into Strength.
