Ascetic * as Monk Bonus Feats? [Archive] - Wizards Community

I just noticed in the Complete Scoundrel, in the Special benefit section of the description, that the Ascetic Stalker feat can be chosen as one of the Monk's Bonus Feats. I don't recall seeing this in any of the other books regarding Ascetic feats.

Is that intended for all of the Ascetic feats? Ascetic Knight, Ascetic Rogue, Ascetic Psion, etc?

Thanks!

Anyway as I'm only aware of that one feat being noted that way it is I would have to assume only that one feat can be taken as a Monk Bonus Feat unless metioned otherwise in the text of the other Ascetic feats.

Sorry, I just thought the OP might be interested in some more Ascetic Feats, my petit poi.

But would it hurt to answer the question before throwing more at him?:P

I guess I was embarrassed because I didn't know the answer. *coy look on face*

Maybe it isnt supposed to be there on that one, and they will errata it away?

The GM I'm making the character for ruled that they all do indeed substitute for the monk bonus feats, so that helped. :)
