Anyone moves up adjacent to the Monk will also take 7 damage 1/turn. This opens up forced movement from other PCs or simply damaging targets trying to move up and hit the Monk. The Monk will be invisible to the target due to Cat & Mouse if it is alive - that amount of damage ought to kill a standard. If it doesn't, the next round, Lion's Den does 1d6+35.After Sarifal's Blessing goes down, at-will damage looks like this:1d6+88+1(either from bonus fire damage or sliding the target)i.e. 20.5 on an at-will attack.Also, the same build works almost the same at level 1 if you initially take Resounding Flurry until you get a Blurred Ki Focus.This will do:Blistering Flourish: 1d8+5FoB: 10(2+2+1(BF)+5(SB))Lion's Den 1d6+11FoB: 10 - slide adjacentLion's Den moving adjacent: 7Next Round's Lion's Den = 1d6+11+10+7 = 31.5Or about 51 damage on average with 2 hits. Will shut up anyone saying Monks are puny and weak - as you nearly one shot an elite on round 1 and then follow up by one shotting a standard on round 2.====== Created Using Wizards of the Coast D&D Character Builder ======level 5Elf, MonkMonastic Tradition Option: Centered BreathAuspicious Birth (Auspicious Birth Benefit)Theme: Sarifal Feywarden FINAL ABILITY SCORESSTR 8, CON 12, DEX 21, INT 10, WIS 15, CHA 12 STARTING ABILITY SCORESSTR 8, CON 12, DEX 18, INT 10, WIS 12, CHA 12  AC: 21 Fort: 16 Ref: 20 Will: 16HP: 53 Surges: 8 Surge Value: 13 TRAINED SKILLSAcrobatics +12, Insight +9, Perception +11, Stealth +12 UNTRAINED SKILLSArcana +2, Athletics +1, Bluff +3, Diplomacy +3, Dungeoneering +4, Endurance +3, Heal +4, History +2, Intimidate +3, Nature +8, Religion +2, Streetwise +3, Thievery +7 POWERSBasic Attack: Melee Basic AttackBasic Attack: Ranged Basic AttackSarifal Feywarden Utility: Sarifal's BlessingElf Racial Power: Elven AccuracyMonk Feature: Centered Flurry of BlowsMonk Attack 1: Lion's DenMonk Attack 1: Blistering FlourishMonk Utility 2: Cat and Mouse FEATSSuperior Implement Training (Mighty ki focus)Level 2: Cunning StalkerLevel 4: Crashing Tempest Style ITEMSMonk unarmed strikeBlurred Strike Mighty ki focus +1 x1Rhythm Blade Dagger +1 x1(can be replaced with Dagger of Shielding if DM not okay with it)Ki Club +1 x1Spirit FetchIron Armbands of Power (heroic tier) x1Magic Cloth Armor (Basic Clothing) +1 x1Amulet of Protection +1 x1====== End ======</blockquote>
