#2 mellored Mar 02, 2015 13:28:33	Well, without heavy armor... and ignoring weapon master...   i see athlete, or tavern brawler.  I'd rate them about equal.   Don't forget +1 Str / +1 something else is an option too. Like +1Str/ +1 Wis, and then later picking up Resilience Wis.
#3 Hecetv Mar 02, 2015 13:29:13	Your options are basically Athlete and Tavern Brawler. Tavern brawler I think is cool, because you can hit people with random objects. But if your DM likes knocking you over then maybe athlete would be better. If you can I would NOT pick up a strength feat and instead add another point to con or dex, but if you say have to pick a feat then I think tavern brawler is abstractly better though they aren't comparable.    You could also theoretically pick up heavy armor but it's kind of bad on a barbarian because you can't rage.... So..... Unless you wanted to be a worse fighter....

#5 Coredump00 Mar 02, 2015 18:17:07	Tavern Brawler seems really weak for a monk....     You could *really* go against type, and be a monk in heavy armor.  ;)   So really, your only choice is Athlete, which could be fun if you have good str for those jumps.   OTOH, I think the best advice is to either keep your Str stat even, or to put +1 in Str and +1 in something else, and take a different +1 feat later.
