Jowy 34 pointer Dex Wisdom

[manumase]

sooo i decided.... going back to dark monk wisdom/Dex human, its worked for me, i tried lesser reincarnating to Str Con Version but just don't like it, so back to what i love, after 9 more shrouds ^^ the +2 luck is my head of good fortune which is worn in certain situations, and this build has the option to change its path to light for shintao monk if i feel like trying it

Jowy isnt that well known on cannith, but i guess its time to TR him anyway, my old build before lesser reincarnating is same minus 1 str and the exceptionals at current state and the past lifes,

[Necroyer]

I think its a great built, but i would expect the U7 to TR on Half-elf, they gain an extra race feat to choice between, rogue class (1d6 sneak attack), clerk (use wand and scrolls), barbarian (DR 1) and monk ( not recomended if u have any lvl of monk, don't stack.). If u choice rogue ur sneak attack have 4d6 damage whit NSII. Plus have resist enchant spells like an elf and no penalities to CON.



Sry for my bad english.

Cya and have a nice day :P

[Therigar]

Half-elf loses out on the Human bonus feat. That costs a Toughness selection and pushes back one of the L1 feat choices to a later level. It has a ripple effect by pushing everything else back by 3 levels.

Is it worth that in order to get the Half-elf immunities and dilettante? IMO it would not be.

[manumase]

half elf will only interest me if they put the delitantte enhancements, then i would go cleric for the enhancement lines for less failure on raise scrolls, but other than that the half elf just isnt worth it, not unless i went for void over the healing amp, but the healing amp gets me quite a nice gain on my points i wouldnt like losing unless it was absolutely necessary.
With the healing amp i can solo quite a lot of quests without even bothering with a hireling, just other day before lesser reincarnating i solo'ed sins hard, had a few very close calls, but without the healing amp i wouldnt have made it, my dex wisdom build stood at 47 AC unbuffed and without items which helped a bit,

i also like that i can just do a quick feat swap and voila i am shintao monk. will be nice for next update

eh your "luck of heros" is kinda filler at 6 and IMO stunning fist is a waste at level 1. not a lot worth stunning before 6. Don't get me wrong I like +1 to saves but lets be honest your a monk save aren't too big of an issue.

Before 6 what do you really need to stun? only danger prior to 6 is the trip crit from the ogres with fort save that are stupid high so you can't stun anyway. That and the ki just isn't there to bother even with a nice piece of twink (necklace of contemplation) you don't have that much ki bank to be throwing them around. better off just throwing an earth or appropriate double damage elemental.

sure you are probably doing a vet start but I still see no reason to take SF @1 or even to take luck of heros at all.

So I wouldn't count out half-elf , then again I wouldn't really count it in either the human bonus feat would be nice to pick up zen archery for some decent ranged damage and with a dex/wis build you are already prepped.
------------

for the rest of the build looks good to me. If you have it or happen to get one eat +2 cha tome to tale you to 10 base and throw on a +6 cha item if you can fit it in for some shining star dance. 10+20(monK level) + 3 = 33 DC isn't great but it isn't terrible for a will based save. Usually a mob that has a fort save high enough to resist a SF will have a junk will save.

[manumase]

luck of heroes is just more shintao monk pre than anything, i have it just so i can change my path to light and become shintao monk if i ever just want a change.

I like the idea of being able to change between shintao monk and ninja spy just by going to fred and paying a small fee for just a change of my inevitable path,

if new shintao monk didnt interest me i wouldnt have chosen luck of heroes amd i may have gone half elf, or even dwarf with 14 str 16 dex wis and con

not gonna dismiss half elf for 36 point build though, by then they may have those enhancements they need

ahh yes a little foresight planning.
approved, mr. boy scout, be prepared!

even still keeping LoH just to be prepared you could push it out till later, same with SF to 6 as I recommended. That 2nd toughness at 18 is nice but not required you could use that as your shintao filler. other thing is if your already going to see fred to feat swap why not just swap out dodge for LoH as well?

[manumase]

cheaper for 1 feat than 2, at this moment in time i just have to change the path, if i took out luck of heroes that would then be 2 x 120tp from the store, and i cant afford that all the time ^^ dont have the flawless for level 16 upwards without the store, so took that into consideration
