Philosophy: Path of Inevitable Dominion?

[Denssor]

Hi everyone,

I started a monk ealier today and when I got to level 3 I picked "Philosophy: Path of Inevitable Dominion" as my feat. And I wanted to know what spiecal attacks I would get with it so I can get an idea of what my monk will be able to do in the future. I found out that there are no spiecal attacks/enhancements for "Philosophy: Path of Inevitable Dominion". But there are plently of spiecal attacks/enhancements for "Philosophy: Path of Harmonious Balance".

Is it just me, or is there no reason to even have selected "Philosophy: Path of Inevitable Dominion" as a feat?

There are no additional special attacks from Dominion other then Fists of Darkness.

The strength of Dominion lies in the finishing moves, and the ability to use Fists of Darkness to lower the saves of the target before using a finisher/stunning fist.

[Denssor]

Do they get any extra finishing moves that are unique to the feat?

[Dylos_Moon]

The finishing moves go Dark/Dark/Dark, and Element/Dark/Same Element

So yes they have specific finishing moves.

[Denssor]

Ok, thanks for the info!

dark does get those finishing moves but going with the light side you also get finishing moves.. i think that the inevitable dominion monks need some more moves like what harmonious path has that you can get through enhancements.

[Denssor]

Exactlly! It doesn't even really give you a choice to which path to take. Because there is so much you can do with Philosophy: Path of Harmonious Balance and nothing really with Philosophy: Path of Inevitable Dominion.

i took Path of Inevitable Dominion i like it .....the other path just seems to offer things i can get from a pot at the vender meh..... maybe i overlooked something maybe not

each path has a strength.

like the Darkness Finisher that negates healing on the target for 30 sec... could seriously make some combats easier

and apparrently it works on red named so that Paladin at the end of Running w/the Devils

the Lts in part 2 and 4 of the shroud that spam heal on themselves... could make for much easier fights

not to mention all the other debuffs
