Critique my Build please =]

[Seekin]

Hello, this is my first build and i am unsure of a few things. Im currently in the process of Leveling a Halfling TR Rogue into a Fighter/Monk.

But i would really like to have an Undead Slayer Paladin/Monk

I was unsure if a Paladins Devotion would buff my Monk healing ability (linght monk) so i left it in there.

I have SOME raid gear, but not much i do however have enough gear to have +6 to all stats, Greater False Life.
Il be using Icy Raiment or Enlightened Vestments and Handwraps to suit the situation.

Anyway here it is:

I would look at the Solar Phoenix build below:

It seems to be what you are wanting. Check it out and compare your notes to the build. It is a pretty fun build to try even without the 1 level of rogue.

[unbongwah]

Aren't handwraps a terrible choice for paladins because of their lousy crit range? Could you squeeze in WSS and use longswords instead?

I think someone out there has done the charts on this and despite the lower base damage and bad crit profile the ability to attack faster (about ~12% IIRC) with unarmed strikes and the fact that your full str modifier applies to off hand strikes with unarmed attacks the DPS is very comparable and not as bad as it may seem.

You can also get added weapon effects through the use of ToD rings should you run alot of epics or in other useful situations.

In Epics everything is a crit.

i thought about this, il see how it goes later in the game, the main reason i wanted the monk splash is because i got the Event Handwraps, didnt get them to epic, got to 16 though, i also quite enjoy the speed of monk fighting and the animation

but like i said, it can be put it in, il see how it all goes later on, about to hit level 9, really like it, very versatile and survivability is great, my Turn is a bit weak though, that will be sorted out at later levels =D
