It's really quite a simple three-part fix.

1) Get rid of this +bab bonus that monks get in game. monks are a 3/4 class and just raising their bab to emulate flurry is a lazy workarund.

2) Add a glancing blow at full damage + weapon effects at levels 1 and 11, when unarmed, wielding 1 kama or a quarterstaff.

3) Add a -2 penalty to hit when unarmed, wielding 1 kama or a quarterstaff.

There, flurry properly implemented, unarmed, 1 kama and quarterstaff combat improved and more motivation to level as a pure monk.

Seriously, the code for this is already in game. Glancing blows are not a new thing, and the code for them to do full damage + weapon effects is in game already (they nerfed it, but it's there).



Thoughts? Let's do it!
