Next Contestant!

[railstar]

Here's the next character in the sickness line-up. He's a monk/shadowdancer and does nearly as much damage as the dervish, but he's more consistant and has a bigger bag of tricks. Opponents that can sneak attack could pose problems, but otherwise I think it's pretty solid. Tell me what you think!

Nice build, the ring of blinking is a very potent item and the monks spell resistence makes many effective counters unlikely to suceed. Just curious what book the vest of restince is from?

The vest of resistance is from the Complete Arcane. It's worn in the chest area, under armor if you wish, following the rules for vests, shirts and robes in the DMG. It provides an enhancment bonus to all saves like the cloak of resistance. I prefer it because it uses an under-utilized slot and allows me to put on a more effective cloak.

Now if only they would do something baout monks and amulaets. Monks have to choose between Mighty Fists, Health, Natural Armor and Wisdom. Only one will work and you end up either giving up your +5 attack bonus, 60 hit points, 5 natural armor or 3 Wisdom AC and will saves. It would be nice if there was an alternate slot item for one of these, maybe for the head, that a monk could use so they wouldn't have to choose. This guy's AC is really kind of weak for his level.

Portable hole strategy! WOOT!

I'm telling you man, one of us has to pull it off. It will get a standing ovation.
