[QUOTE="Lackhand, post: 6968571, member: 36160"] My wish-list? Sort of how the fighter has the "eldritch knight" to let them mix in a little wizard, I'd like some monks which fit a few more needs. The "assassin" monk. We have the "burglar/illusionist" monk with the way of shadow, but I want a semimagical assassin class which subsumes flurry of blows into just one big strike ("when you use this ability as part of the first attack on your turn, you can take no more attacks until the beginning of your next turn but ..."). And which otherwise keeps stealth and movement abilities. Sort of like the Assassin's Creed assassins, who are much more monk than rogue. The "samurai" monk. I mean, my odds are low of getting it in that specific way (thanks, Fighter Unearthed Arcana!), but the swordsage, kensai, or other weapon-focused martial take on the disciplined warrior. It can be strength based, it can encourage martial weaponry, it can maybe even make armor not as much of a trap. The "esoteric" monk. A monk with a collection of powers (whether these be holy gifts or tattoos I'm not sure) which they tap into, sort of a re-try of the way of 4 elements monk with different enough theming to make it work.
