D&D 3E/3.5 Rate the Run feat in 3.5 for Monks

[Simulacrum]

With out checking in the core rules the monk does not have access to the naginata without spending a feat. Plus the spiked chain allows you to trip and disarm from range. It is actually the weapon my characters order's martial art is based on. The range with specials is just icing on the cake.

Oh yes you are right I confused the Naginata and thought it was no martial weapon *lol*
Ok but you could take any other polearm, you have just to be proficient with it!
My fault I gues I played too much with my weapon-monk (Shou Disciple from Unapproachable East--> a kick ass Monk PrC!)

I wouldn't get Run, you should be fast enough without it.

I would go for Improved Init, and Spring Attack.
