Monk feats

[tjaysteno]

Just wondering what feats I should take for my next level. So far I have TWF, Toughness (x1), PA, and Luck of the Heroes (for Shintao). Next level is 6 and I'll be getting Stunning Fist for my PrE and have another one left over. All my ideas got shot down in the advice channel so now I'm wondering what to replace them with. Stunning Blow or another Toughness were both recommended, but thought I'd check in here first before I jack up another toon.

For reference, my future feats will include ITWF, GTWF, and IC:B. I'm also leaning towards UMD focus, but we'll see about that one.



Side question: what skills do you take on your monk?

I like Dodge, just so you can switch between Ninja / Shintao a little more easily if you want (just need to swap your Light Feat to Dark, or vice versa). I think it's good for Monks to have first-hand experience with both.

But yeah, unless fitting in Dragonmarks or Past Life Feats, Monks can often afford a few Toughnesses.

EDIT: Oh yeah, skills. On mine I'm doing Concentration, UMD, Intimidate (why not, Shintao get +6 to it)...and can't remember the 4th right now...Spot, maybe? I like seeing things.

Power Attack

And for skill

Concentration #1 always maxed
balance
jump
and if human tumble

If you read the OP, you would have seen he has PA already. If strength, go with another toughness. If dex or wis, go with weapon finesse.
