I am not entirely certain whether the monk moves are placed in a Queue (computer science datastructure) or what but they are something along those lines. Ie. it stores your last three things in a First In First Out structure.

But lets assume its essentially is for the sake of coummincation. I notice that if you have done three light attacks and get chraged up a fourth light attack will not clear your charge. But something else will clear. Also if I am not mistaken once the charge clears you must do 3 more move no matter what.

Another thing I have noticed is that if I am charge up with the 3 light move Ki charge and have 4 Ki and hot the finisher feat, then I get the not enough Ki message and my charge clears up. I believe that this will force you to do 3 more moves.

I am not 100% sure, but I am pretty sure of the following. If you hit 2 light moves, then hit one light with only 4 Ki and get not enough message, you then need to do 3 more move to get charged up.


If I am right then any time you make a mistake and try to execute things with low Ki you essentially "clear" the queue and are forced to start over. Basically its as if you changed weapons. Now I do not like the weapon change thing, but at least it controlable and not mistake based and makes some kind of thematic sense.


This seems like a bug to me. And if it isn't then it really need to change. Because this is a subtle thing that is probably messing alot of people up. At least with environment interaction (which really really need to change as well) you know exactly what is going on.
