When worn by a monk it allows him to escape from the fray after making a decisive strike. When worn by one untrained in the martial arts, it imbues its wearer with some of the amazing capabilities of a monk.A non-monk wearing the Amulet of the Iron Monky gains the benefits of the Improved Unarmed Fighting Feat and can use a Flurry of Blows with his unarmed strike as though he were a monk, at the usual -2 penalty on each attack. The blows still deal the same damage as the wearer's ordinary unarmed strike (likely subdual). The effect does not function if the user is wearing gauntlets.A monk wearing the Amulet of the Iron Monkey may, if he has just hit with two consecutive unarmed attacks (whether from a flurry of blows or iterative attacks) move his speed. He must make this decision immediately after hitting with the second fo the two attacks.  If he tumbles during this free movement, he gets a +2 competence bonus to his tumble check.Caster Level: 8th; Prerequisites: Craft Wondrous Item, haste; Market Price: 3,200 gp; Weight: ---.The change simplifies it a bit and empowers the non-monk application.  Using a flurry of blows is riduculous if it provokes attacks of opportunity.  Does the price look good?I have a few more items in mind.  I'll post them when I have more time.  Thanks again for helping me tune this.  Balance is very important to me.</blockquote>
