You can get higher stances even with 2 monk levels by taking the feats, adept master, etc ...
Just for fun tried elven 12 fighter/6monk/2 pally with esos.
25 dodge, shadowfade, 15 mins displaces,  earth 3, 50 prr, so 65 with any citw weapon. Crazy stuff.
The more I dick around on Lama, the more I like 5 mins extended displaces for one feat  and dislike expensive human tree.

I think there are several of the dragonmarks that could be useful now depending on AP situation for your race/classes. I played around with a pure ranger build for my son...he's got a halfling ranger he loves playing and I took a look at where he'd be in the update. It's insane...2 feats (dragonmark + improved healing), 1 extra skill (heal) + 5AP in DWS = insane healing. He was tossing out Bring out the Leaches at level 13 for 33 seconds (that would remove 11 neg levels, 11 poisons, 11 diseases over the 33 seconds) and had 6 of those per shrine. His cure light dragonmark, while not amazing, was enough healing to be worth putting on the bar. The heals were hitting for about 460 or so and critting for 900+. I spent enough in AA to get him Morphic Arrows...would have wanted that anyways...so we got there by taking Energy of the Wild III. That gives another 5% to spell crits as well as 100sp and echoes of power. The character still isn't crazy powerful but compared to where it was before the update it's not even close.

On the displacement DM we'll actually be getting even more duration. Level 28 brings another 18 seconds non-extended, 36 seconds extended per cast. It's a bummer they moved displacement to the last tier though and even a bigger bummer that it shares charges with the neg level move.

The human dragonmark's pretty interesting now for leveling...you just have to spend AP to get to ddoor now so it saves a feat. And you only have to spend 1 point in extra DM usage if I'm not mistaken so the AP cost to go up the tree isn't that high as long as you can find something else you like in the human tree.

Yep, guess gotta lose power surge and drop to fighter 8.
8 fighter/6monk/6pally, got emp hjeal and another 25 PRR from pally stance. 12 earth 3, 15 Shintao ( +1 con and another 10 amp from core ), 25 pally = 52.
14 augment + 15 planar focus would make it 81 ( or even 96 with Gmof twist ), not too shabby while still having max dodge, shadowfade, stun blow, gthf.
Sure I could fit extend too with some smart levelling.
So many options, gonna play with 8 ranger levels for twf+manyshot instead pally.
Many dodge cap abilities seem borked still.
I was able to get displace mark on drow too, not sure if wai.
Unrelated, what's the kensai crit range with sos on live ?
Because critting on 13 - 20 on Lama, always thought it was just another +1 threat ( 14 - 20 ).
All this doesn't make any sense probably.
