Wisdom has effect on some saving throws (against domination and such), but not on AC. ABout con, i think that non-fighter characters dont get any benefit for con above 16, but i dont know if the monk is a fighter or not. If his strenght is 18 and not 18/XX, then i guess he isnt, and that his con should be 16. Anyway, wait to hear some more opinions than mine [img]smile.gif[/img]
I cant give you other tips because ive never played as a monk
