[Bozos of Bones]

Later they get to kill people by touching them, get self healing, cool spell resistance, much later they get 20 damage resistance, his to-hit is fair, his damage isn't that bad, but he suffers a bit from over-spreading of points. His hitpoints are fair enough for a fighter,but coupled with his invincible AC they're unkillable. He has some awesome saves and abilities that make him often a better combat choice than the rogue. He can stun people, and if in a properly blessed party he can jump from one guy to the next just stunning them or killing them. The only thing bad I can think of in a monk is his ki strike, because IMHO that should be a littlebit more powerful, but that's about it. My previous statement was over-stated, because every class is perfectly balanced with the next, but monks are a special breed of power nonetheless.
