Hey all,
I just want to post a couple of monk build I was thinking about. I have never played a monk so I am sure that I need to revise these builds. The human build is a str base build and the halfling build is dex based. I do have a question before I post these builds, do I need to worry about having a high wis for monk DC's? It seems to me the special monk attacks are worthless if you don't have a high wis but you will suffer on your other attributes.
