Message: <blockquote data-quote="DumbPaladin" data-source="post: 5473507" data-attributes="member: 90770">Ki?Has anyone mentioned in the past the possibility of tying some of the weapon and/or armor enhancements to the ki pool?  The monk already has the ability to have his unarmed strikes count as magical, lawful, or adamantine weapons for free, based on his level and simply by having 1 ki point in his pool.  What if a monk could simulate a weapon or armor special ability throughout his entire body, in addition to magic/lawful/adamantine, as long as he possessed 1+X ki points in his pool, where X is the base price modifier, +1 through +5?  There would have to be limitations, of course: weapon modifiers would have to be melee-only, and rather than allowing the monk to simply choose special abilities on the fly, perhaps some sort of ritual would be required, allowing the monk to focus his ki to mimic the special ability.  The number of abilities a monk could emulate could be limited to 1 weapon and 1 armor modifier, or he could actually "know" 1 per every 5 levels of monk ... something to that effect.If that's too game-unbalancing, perhaps the monk would have to spend the ki points to activate this ability instead ... but then I'd probably advocate giving the monk more ki points each level.</blockquote>
