Rectus_Proeliator 09-24-07, 02:31 AM	Well thinking about it, what feats should i get next? I am Level 1 Monk, 6 Fighter and I fight with fists(unarmed) most of the time and rarely use a use a weapon. Unless at range then I use a sling.I already have the folowing feats... Stunning Fist, Combat Reflexes, Acrobatic Strike, Versatile Unarmed Strike, Improved Unarmed Strike, Superior Unarmed Strike, Power Attack, Improved Sunder, Power Lunge & Eagle Claw Attack. If you wanted/needed to know my stats are as folows... Str-25.. +7.. courtesy of my "belt of giant strength +6 ". Dex-15..+2 Con-17..+3 Int-13.. +1 Wis-22..+6..it was 18..but brought "periapt of wisdom +4". Cha-13..+1 Thanks...
dman11235 09-24-07, 03:12 AM	Stunning fist feats. And up your wisdom a lot. And grab Ki Straps. Pain Touch, Freezing the Lifeblood, Weakening touch are all fair game. Just don't get trapped into fists of iron or the fiery ki feats.
Rectus_Proeliator 09-24-07, 03:25 AM	K.. Thanks for your input.. time to look them up :) EDIT:Brought myself a "periapt of wisdom +4."

Improved Natural Attack - You'll deal damage as though you were one size category larger with your natural attacks. Also, if it's available to you, Ring The Golden Bell is an awesome feat. It allows you to do stunning fists from a distance.
Rectus_Proeliator 09-24-07, 03:46 AM	Great, thanks for your response.. I like the sounds of those feats.:D
dman11235 09-24-07, 04:07 AM	Improved natural attack wil not be worth the feat unless you can get your effective monk level above, say, 10. Otherwise you're probably better off putting that feat somewhere else.
Rectus_Proeliator 09-24-07, 04:15 AM	I wouldn't say that too soon..as I already have "Superior Unarmed Strike" which takes my damage from.. level 1 doing 1d6 up to level 1 doing 1d8. If i get "Improved Natural Strike" it would take it up to 1d10 i'm guessing.. Still need to check out those other feats though..
dman11235 09-24-07, 04:26 AM	It would take it to 2d6. That's an increase in average damage of 2.5. A monk's belt would increase the effective monk level to 10, which is 1d10, imp nat att would increase that to 2d8, an increase of 3.5. Still not worth it in my opinion. If you increased it one more step, to 2d6, that increases to 3d6, borderline worth it, but still not. One more step in monk, level 16 minimum, and the increase from the feat is 4.5. Probably worth it. It's also worth the feat if you are (at effective level 10) large or larger. But if you have a spare feat, go right ahead. I'm not complaining about some more damage.
EjoThims 09-24-07, 04:32 AM	If you're focusing on unarmed attacks take Snap Kick form ToB as well. Though honestly, with Superior Unarmed Strike and Improved Natural Attack, 0 levels of monk is better than 1. Unless you're planning on taking monk to about 8, see if your DM will let your retrain that level.
Rectus_Proeliator 09-24-07, 04:35 AM	Ahh okay.. I reckon it is still worth it because at 8th level a fighter gets a bonus feat + the normal one you get at 8th level.. plus eventually i will get most desired feats being a fighter..;) I'm out for tonight +12 gmt..Thanks for everyone's input so far.
Rectus_Proeliator 09-24-07, 04:37 AM	hmm yeah.. thanks.. cya later guys.:)
Rectus_Proeliator 09-24-07, 04:10 PM	Back now start posting away your thoughts..;)
Orenmir 09-24-07, 04:36 PM	Why is your fighter using a sling? Why not grab a composite bow? Just curious.
Orenmir 09-24-07, 04:40 PM	Your character might have fun with Improved Disarm. Since you're fighting unarmed most of the time, AND you have the ability to use most weapons... Disarming would put your opponent's weapon in your hand and you can start using it against him immediately! Your insanely high strength (at 7th level) should offset the -4 penalty to disarm without a weapon.
Rectus_Proeliator 09-24-07, 05:34 PM	True..compossite bows could help me alot with +7 strength. Once i use up my (holy,acid+alchemical fire) sling bullets i will probably get a composite bow.Sling was cheaper at the time.. And with "Improved disarm" I don't really need it because I already have "Improved sunder"..Why not smash the weapon then they have nothing..I can smash their weapons with my fists because I have "Eagle Claw Attack".
Orenmir 09-24-07, 05:38 PM	And with "Improved disarm" I don't really need it because I already have "Improved sunder"..Why not smash the weapon then they have nothing..I can smash their weapons with my fists because I have "Eagle Claw Attack". I just thought it would be fun. Especially if your opponent has a very expensive or powerful or unsunderable weapon. Grab it from him; use it to kill him; then go sell it! Can't do that with sunder. Plus, you're only burning one feat instead of two!
Rectus_Proeliator 09-24-07, 05:43 PM	Yeah.. that'll be cool. It just depends on quality if i do or don't. It might be an option to use agaisnt enemies.. Thanks.
