I don't  want suggestions on builds/optimization/etc. Just to know what all the  numbers are for tripping, disarming, etc.Half-minotaur template for human monk.  7th ECL. 6 class levels of monk.Broken fist style from 309. taking karmic strike at 9th level of monk, but anyways."BROKEN FIST MASTERY IYou have mastered the initial secrets of the Broken Fistmartial arts style-a hard/soft form emphasizing movement,knockdowns, and fast strikes.
