Though it is only skill checks, i would think that a Rogue/Adherent shouldn't necessarily be able to cast from a wand using UMD that is "held" at 150 feet away... all the same, i like power. Intentionally failing a disable check on  a trap with a fail explosion radius of 30 feet (decent explosion) from 50 feet away might be a bit too much power though, it's instant disabling unless the trap auto-resets. Can you think of a specific scenario or a reason to allow a skill check to be performed at LOS range? I really do want a reason to allow that kind of easily abusable power lol.Right on, i'll work on wording the distant combat stuff, and take another look at the Monk feat. I see the your logic, i just wanted to avoid combat as much as possible with this class...but you present a nice case, so i'll at the very least make a variant version.</blockquote>
