[QUOTE="Chaosmancer, post: 8053271, member: 6801228"] Then tell me what about my math was wrong. I have posted it four to six times, and not a single person has said I'm wrong. So, go back, look at the numbers, and tell me how my numbers are incorrect. And I'm not posting them again. Six times is enough The damage loss from not flurrying at level 5 is 7.5 damage. That is not a huge drop. Especially since I've been showing their 3 attacks is the same as the greatsword fighter and such. And, while there is a drop, your perception seems skewed. You see "I lose damage when I can't used resources" I see "I gain damage when I spend resources" Slow Fall, Deflect Missiles, MArtial Arts, Evasion, Running on Water or up Walls, Stillness of Mind, Purity of Body, a few more high levels Subclasses? Wholeness of Body, Tranquilty, Shadow Step, Cloak of Shadows, Opportunist, Agile Parry, Kensei's Shot, Unerring Accuracy, Searing Sunburst, Sun Shield. So, maybe this is a perception thing, because realistically? About half of the monk's cool abilties do not take ki I think this is pure perception. They are seeing the baseline of the class as being using their ki, where the ki is meant to be a bonus on top of their normal abilities. [/QUOTE]
