I know Manifester level is paramount, but all those abilities from monk are -mighty- tasty up there. Especially evasion (though you can get that with a ring.. why take up an item slot when you can have it as an EX?)
#2 carnivore Apr 09, 2008 14:45:22	it depends on the Build .... you really need to post the complete Build. from what you have posted .... it apears that BAB is not an issue since you will only finish with +14 ...... Pre-EPIC, if you plan to go EPIC , i would suggest a BAB +16 min... given the Choices... id suggest the Erudite level .... it will lead to more effective use of powers and a more powerful Character... since a single 9th lvl power(Greater Metamorphosis, etc...) can equal all that the level of Monk offers :D
