Harmony of Balance

[JasonJi72]

After some tests with an Archer Monk, I decided to try a more 'centered' approach. This is not so much an Archer Monk, as a versatile monk who can pull out a bow from time to time, and use it effectively. There is a lot to be gained by taking more monk levels, and a lot to be lost when you don't.

OMG! The AP is tight with this build.

I named it Harmony of Balance because it has healing/raise, melee DPS, ranged DPS, stealth, and some CC.

I really wish I did not have to give up the capstone, but fighter haste boost, and arcane archer slaying arrows might make up for it.

Shred it as you please. It took a few tries to fit the AP in. Talk about tight.

EDIT: After posting it, I remembered where my 'extra' two AP came from. I had to redo the enhancements several times to get it to work. Swap Monk Wisdom I for Ninja Spy II.

EDIT II: In real life, I would probably swap bow str and imp crit ranged with imp 2wf and g2wf. I was just trying to make it all fit. I apologize for the confusion.
