Message: <blockquote data-quote="Dagredhel" data-source="post: 3893011" data-attributes="member: 3421">The Enlightened Fist PrC includes specific rules for adapting it for a divine spellcaster instead.  The PrC levels improve AC bonus, unarmed damage, unarmored speed bonus, and daily uses of stunning fist.  Spellcasting improves at even levels.  You get d8 HD and medium BAB progression, and seven special abilities.  Not too bad.If you go that route, several feats will help:Kung Fu Genius[General](DR319 p71)Intelligence 13Must be taken before orat the same time asgaining Monk level 1stUse your Intelligence modifier in place of your Wisdom modifier for all Monk class abilities normallybased on Wisdom.This one is a must have. <img src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/joypixels/assets/8.0/png/unicode/64/1f642.png" class="smilie smilie--emoji" loading="lazy" width="64" height="64" alt=":)" title="Smile    :)"  data-smilie="1"data-shortname=":)" /> Practiced Spellcaster[General] (CDiv p82)(CArc p82)Spellcraft: 4 ranks Choose one of your spellcasting classes. The spells you cast from this class have +4 Caster level (up toyour number of HD).This feat helps multiclassed characters.Superior Unarmed Strike[General] (ToB p33)Improved Unarmed StrikeBAB+3If you are a monk, you instead deal unarmed damage as a monk four levels higher.Improved Natural Attack[General]Natural weaponBAB +4. Choose one of the creature’s natural attack forms. The damage for this natural weapon increases by one step, as if the creature’s size had increased by one category: 1d2, 1d3, 1d4, 1d6, 1d8, 2d6, 3d6, 4d6, 6d6, 8d6, 12d6. A weapon or attack that deals 1d10 points of damage increases as follows: 1d10, 2d8, 3d8, 4d8, 6d8, 8d8, 12d8. This feat may be taken multiple times, but each time it applies to a different natural attack.Assuming you start with 2 Monk levels and 3 Archivist levels, adding 10 levels of Enlightened Fist leaves you with 5 levels to cover.  Since you seem to envision Archivist as the main class, either Contemplative or Loremaster would do nicely, with their full caster progressions and complimentary abilities.By 20th level, you'll have 7th level spells and an unenhanced BAB of only +11--- but you'll make up for that with spells. <img src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/joypixels/assets/8.0/png/unicode/64/1f609.png" class="smilie smilie--emoji" loading="lazy" width="64" height="64" alt=";)" title="Wink    ;)"  data-smilie="2"data-shortname=";)" />  You can squeak out another 2 points of BAB with Monk 4/Archivist 4--- but only at the expense of 7th level spells.</blockquote>
