The PA/Cleaves route has some synergy with being able to use Momentum swing and Lay Waste from LD.
Whirlwind attack is a cleave attack just the same and also resets momentum swing.

Going to be using Dex for hit and damage
Why tho? There's are a lot more ways to buff/increase strength than there are for dex. Going dex instead of str might give a slightly higher reflex save but you won't have any trouble making reflex saves, can get reflex high enough for anything, besides, you have frickin' improved evasion?

WWA is soooo feat intensive and 13 int...
Have you heard about know the angles from harper tree? 11 int is enough fyi.
You fail to see my point though. Let me break it down for you: WA > cleave + great cleave....
Trust me, cleave is ass on an unarmed and using it will only lower your damage output. I have cleave just to be able to take momentum swing (which is broken AF btw and far worse than even cleave) and dont even have cleave on my hotbars anymore since you can throw like 4+ punches in the time it takes to make a cleave, especially with haste boost active cleave will be super lame. Again, cleave only hits once... IDK how many mobs you plan to hit with nerfed unarmed cleave range, but hardly more than 4.

yeah, I put mobility basically as a placeholder, looking now I realize I forgot precision, so it will go there.
You do know that precision and power attack can't be active at the same time, right?
BTW idk if you play EE or not but on a pure melee monk with only cocoon, ur gonna have a bad time mkay... unless u like kiting with a melee toon, 150 hp is gone in 1 hit in most content so useless with an EE mob trying to rape your soon to be loose butthole.
I always used to roll my monks bf, with a few fighter levels which solve the feat issue. Since the changes to shintao tree its a shame to miss out on that capstone but idc I just keep using my old build, soulstones don't do a lot of dps. Reconstruct easily hits for over 1k every 6 sec. shaken on hit, +3 tactics, dual action boost, stalwart stance...
Well, up to you just saying what I found in my unarmed lives,
Game on!
