WIS based monks...

Rolled up a WIS based monk last night. Stats are  6/18/12/10/18/8.

At what level(feat/enhancement) do I get DEX to damage? I hate this thing so far.

there have been a few Monk based topics in the last days/weeks in here I would suggest reading those and for a first lifer chose a race which grants you access to tactic boni which basicly means Dwarf or Warforged

2 level Fighter splash for more tactical boni
and DON't go dex-> dmg yes it's ok for leveling but not for endgame

If you want a tactics monk, I'd go dwarf for the DC bonus - especially first life.

Keep in mind that the DPS of a tactics monk is poo, but you make up for it in just outright killing stuff with QP/EIN, CCing with the other tactics, etc. May not be fun to level one, dunno, but they're great in EE groups.

This is kind of the same thing as an int-based assassin with the added bonus on missing out on about 100 sneak attack damage a hit. My son's always making fun of my int-based assassin's first damage number because his staff str-based rogue does way more damage on those first numbers. A monk faces the same problem only worse because of the smaller sneak attack numbers. But you definitely make up for it w/ all of the wonderful instakills and cc options.

For even trying that build just goes to show how fucking stupid you are. Fucking rid this world of your negative IQ score. Please, I beg of you!

I think the ranger DWS version imp weapon finesse one is broken for wraps, a guildy stated the rogue one isn't for wraps.

Pretty bad that figuring out what's broken for a build is harder than figuring out a build.

(just a general statement,  not saying any build in this thread is good)

Don't you know nothing is broken? Everything is WAI. Except things that help players.

Bad players Sad

hey my Monk had dex to dmg in his first life, ok I took weapon finesse and it was 2 1/2 years ago and it did about 1/2 wet paper towels for dmg

the 2nd life build I did on that Toon had the same base dmg as the 1st lifer had on crits...
