Now that you do I have a question pertaining to monks. (Please forgive me if it's been asked, I don't have the time to read all 1400 posts.)

In the first sentence I quoted it says that monks wind stance will get 5%/10%/15%/20% to off hand proc rate.

Now you have changed it to double strike %. But wind 4 says it would give a 10% chance for double strike proc. Does that mean that each level of wind stance will give a 2.5% chance, or is wind 4 the ONLY level of that stance that will give double strike proc %?

Also, has there been any thought to Ki generation? With monks taking a big hit to the amount of times they will hit with their off hand they will not be generating as much ki, perhaps on double strikes they should get a percentage of extra ki than a normal hit? Ideas on this?
this is a good observation - I don't think monk wind stance gets any bonus to offhand attack % rate with the new table: the 80% that monks get is from taking all the twf feats (base 20% + twf 20% + itwf 20% + gtwf 20% = 80%)

I would guess that it's 2.5% insight bonus to double attack rate per wind stance but Eladrin would have to confirm and update the OP.

A potential option to make up for the fact that monks are unable to take stwf (because of BAB being too low) would be to give each wind stance a 5% bonus to offhand rates as well as a 2.5% bonus to double strike meaning a monk with gtwf in wind4 stance would have a 10% double strike and 100% offhand.
