Yeah four +2 tomes and a half dozen specific raid items would make any build look good.
I have looted a couple dozen +1 tomes over the past two years, but have yet to loot a +2 or +3 tome other than the 1750 favor ones. So I don't have a problem with builds including a single +2 tome and all the +1 tomes they want, but beyond that it's just not a realistic build for anyone but the elite.
Code:Sil - Human Paladin 14 Lava Divers Tad - Drow Wizard 14 Semolina - Elf Rog 13/Ftr 1 on Rava - Drow Sorceror 7 Riddikulus - Human Cleric 14 Khyber Clamor - Warforged Barb 7 Durum - Dwarf Ftr 10/Pal 3/Rng 1 Ridd - Dwarf Ftr 6/Rog 2/Pal 2
Well I certainly can't convince anyone that items are easily obtainable.
But I thought maybe there was a little more to this guy we could discuss other than what he's wearing.
+2 Tomes and raid loot are used (in my case) on a character build breakdown to show the potential. I mean it's not as if this build would be completely useless and no fun at all if he couldn't pull 1/2 the things on the list in the OP. It would just present you the challenge of getting those things and keep you motivated to pound those raids, if YOUR personal desire was to reach maximum potential of this character.
Different people play different ways, I suppose. I've always enjoyed rolling a character that would benefit greatly from some hard-to-find items, and the challenge of achieving those items.
That all being said. Would anyone:
take a different feat than the 2nd toughness?
Adjust the stats at all?
Try this with a different race?

And as for the losing WIS bonus to AC for wielding a greataxe, that is absolutely incorrect.
The requirement for the WIS bonus is to not wear armor/shield and not be encumbered.
I have a Ranger/Monk using rapiers/shortswords, and he very much enjoys his WIS bonus.
Not being centered keeps you from using monk special attacks, stances, and ki generation. None of which concerns this build at all.

Solid build Davey, here is my 2 cents...
1) I would dump one toughness and add something like cleave. With 450+ hp 18 extra hp < extra damage from cleave or another combat feat/extend spell ect
2) Eventually the dev's will fix the remining balanced while using non monk weapons (like they did evasion)
1)Totally open to something other than the 2nd toughness. Cleave's certainly an option.
2)Centered Bonus wasn't calculated in the AC of this build (center bonus and WIS bonus are two different things, with two different requirements).
Thank you for the comments/compliments, and nice to see you!

I like the looks of this, and think I will try one out. I will let you know.
Im Kinda Just Scared For This Build, Incase The Dev's Change Wisdom Bonus To Ac, Like They Did With Evasion In Heavy Armor... Except You'll Loose 7 Ac... You Will Still Gain 2 Feats And Evasion, However.

It will NOT happen, it is NOT unintended.
Evasion wasn't 'nerfed', it was fixed to the rules of D&D
The same rules of D&D state:Originally Posted by D20 SRD
To 'nerf' this would just be ridiculous, and would deserve the title 'nerf.Originally Posted by D20 SRD
