Monk

Monastic discipline adds unarmed mastery to any class, from barbarian fury to spellcasters blending magic into martial forms.

common

Monastic training has taught you martial arts and allowed you to hone your mind, body, and spirit.

  • Barbarian monks with the animal instinct can combine the barbarian's excellent unarmed damage with the monk's diverse unarmed special abilities.
  • Champion monks are perfect for champions of Irori or other deities who favor unarmed attacks.
  • Fighter monks can supplement free-hand fighting and add mobility to the fighter's toolkit.
  • Rogue monks are incredibly effective because stances grant some of the best agile finesse attacks and flurry gives more sneak attacks.
  • Spellcaster monks can augment their combat abilities with haste, runic body, or similar spells to mix magic and martial arts.
