There's a build I'm running that leaves me with the nagging feeling that it could perform better. I'm good with caster builds, they're a lot more intuitive to me than melee builds. Anyway, you guys offer good advice and will undoubtedly have some tweaks to suggest. Any suggestions would be appreciated.

Goal: survivable, high dps and high dc monk wraps build.

Limitations: 10 reaper points in current build. Limited racial points...this is not my main and reincarnating has lost a lot of appeal. For all intents and purposes it's a triple heroic triple epic completionist.

I'm thinking the dcs may be overkill...suggestions would be appreciated.

Destiny? Twists?

I would definitely swap out astral for ethereal and symmetric strikes for sense weakness. And fit advancing blows into your ed.

I would also be thinking about fitting ring of prowess into your gear and swapping epic reflexes for sneak of shadows.

I disagree about rise and improved martial arts.

Combat expertise is silly though. Go precision. Don't dump con imo... ...you still need it for dots etc that don't one shot on r10 even.

Take capstone and go Dex / Wis / Con / Int. Capstone is more damage than wisdom to hit and damage. Your dex will be pretty high anyway.

If you're not putting yourself in situations where you can wipe then you must be running things that are wayyyy to fucking easy. I don't know. Some people enjoy running the same shit over and over again on r1-3.

I thought that would go without saying.
You get more damage the other way. Wisdom to hit and damage is not worth more than the +[w] and melee power by quite a bit.

The dcs are almost the same if you pick up KTA. You're down by like 4 or something.

Ok, I've looked at the advice and played around a bit with the various permutations on lama. Kobold times of 29.7, 30.2 and 30.5. Not top dps by any means, but not utter shyte.

Swapping Symmetric Strikes for Sense Weakness and Rise of the Phoenix for Kukan-do were both good calls. Much appreciated.

Dumping Con- is the difference between 62 and 64 or 66 con at cap THAT game breaking?

Using the capstone + KTA vs Divine Will, though...even with a lot of gear swapping, that's a double digit loss in dcs. I'd rather keep no-fail stuns in R10.

Will mess around with feats a bit more next round on lama.
