[QUOTE="Visigani, post: 5738081, member: 6676235"] Point being, Dandu, monks don't "need" high dex. They're only as "mad" as you want to make them. Consider Stunning Fist. A 20th lvl wizard with 34 int casting suggestion, a third level spell would have a DC of 25. A 20th lvl monk with a wisdom of 20 would have the exact same DC. Getting 20 wisdom by level 20 isn't exceptionally difficult, a tome and an item would do you just fine. You could focus significantly on strength and only really pay lip service on the rest of your attributes. Armor bracers and a few +stat items and you'd have about the same AC as a two handed fighter and you may not do the same amount of damage but you're not really meant to. More importantly you'd be able to soak a lot more damage in certain circumstances than our friend the fighter. The monk only gets about 1 fewer hitpoints per level than the fighter. [/QUOTE]
