It is quite clear the developers sat down and asked okay what are all the mythological eastern martial artist masters rumored to do? They tried to accommodate that entire theme/list in one archetype but naturally got demoted because of the large amount, especially against other fighter characters so they limited the abilities more and more. As a result you have a master of nothing.The ability actually is quite a decent idea, but the monk needs to be reorganized as these monks in history and in the real world were still vastly different from one another. It really almost needs to be split up into different categories. On one end you have a single weapon savant with something similar to the ancestral weapon. Another a pressure point specialist that would have a stunning fist type feat line and a little sneak attack. I am just throwing stuff out there.</blockquote>
