    You do not need weapon focus, PA >> Weapon Focus.

    Oh, and most people say no to dragonmarks, but don't let that stop you from building what you want.

    I took WF to equal weapon finesse. Either way, though, w/o CE he is going to have issues hitting meaningful AC, and w/o PA he is going to have issues hitting meaningful DPS. He can self-heal all day long, but unless this is primarily a solo build, it will not be overly effective if it can't kill things. Personally I don't even think monks should go dex route vs. str route, but that's another discussion.

    Drop weapon finesse, your STR should be as high or higher, anyway; I also dislike stunning fist, but others like it. Other than that, you are getting the TWF feats kind of late (imp crit can wait).

    Power attack is a must, and I would take it at either 6 or 9.

    and where did i say weapon focus will be taken?

    No, toughness is more like 60 HP, which is very useful, but you don't have to take it that early if you don't want to. You really only need it after 10 or so. Drop finesse or stunning fist.

    I think that they saw WF and assumed you meant weapon focus; understandable, really, since neither is terribly useful.

    As a monk you have 2 BAB totals usually represented as +##/+## on your character sheet. The first number (Which is lower than the second) is the BAB that makes you eligible for feats. The second number represents your BAB when you’re centered. So at monk level 12 you will have a BaB of +8 which makes you eligible for Improved Crit. At level 15 you will have the +11 necessary for taking GTWF.
    Things worthy of Standing Stone going EXTREME PREJUDICE™ on.:
    • Epic and Legendary Mysterious ring upgrades, please.
    • Change the stack size of filigree in the shared bank to 50. The 5 stack makes the shared bank worthless for storing filigree in a human usable manner.
    • Fixing why I don't connect to the chat server for 5 minutes when I log into a game world.
    • Fixing the wonky Lightning Sphere and Tactical Det firing by converting them to use alchemist spell arcing.
    • Redoing the drop rates of tomes in generic and raid loot tables.
