I have tried Dex and Str based builds in Undermountain.
Dex is fun and works well until levels 13 and 14. Dex based characters don't get hurt much there but their AB is usually too low to do much damage (apart perhaps from Arcane Archers but I have no experience with that build).
Monks in particular, and I say this even though they are a favourite of mine, don't seem able to cope at the deeper levels using unarmed strike. I haven't done any better with kamas either.
For that reason most of my characters are now Str based although they take in a level or two of monk or rogue for the skills bonuses.
If you are thinking of a rogue build you might consider rogue/bard/RDD. It is possible to get both dev crit and epic dodge with this build plus the buffs from the bard levels. Dual wielding small weapons it can be quite lethal.
