Centered bonus unchanged?

[Thanimal]

I apologize if this was already discussed, but a quick search didn't turn up anything relevant.

At least according to the UI, the Centered Bonus is still being applied if I am not centered.

I could have sworn it was announced this would be taken away with Mod 9.

TO BE CLEAR: Despite the rumors, no dev ever indicated the WISDOM bonus would be changed. But I could have sworn the additional Centered Bonus that Monks get at 2, 5, 10, 15, and 20 was going to actually required being centered in Mod 9.

Yes? No? Bug?

Thanks for any info.

I've never seen any post stating the Centered armor bonus was going to be tied to being Centered.

its wai, why should it change?

[Thanimal]

How can it be working as intended when the bonus is clearly called "Centered Bonus" ?

But anyhow, if I imagined this whole thing I'll happily keep my +1 AC on pretty much every character I have!

because eladrin said so and that its just poorly named?
cause its working like pnp where things like centered dont even exist?

Why do we drive on parkways and park on driveways?

In this case its becuase AC bonus need to have different names in order to stack properly and the devs felt "Centered" was appropriate for a Monk AC bonus.

This is not a bug.

Hence why it was not changed.

So two monk levels nets you the wis bonus, and additionally the centered bonus of 1 (or whatever depending on levels) even if not centered?

[Twerpp]

ahh I see it, when unarmored and not wearing a shield. Dont say nuttin about centered.

is it just me or does the monk always get the long end of the quarterstaff?. lowest amount of weapons, no decent gear, and this whole "centering" garbage. give us a break Turbine fix the monk...
