Ooooooo, when in the upper levels (15 and up)they're a force to be reckoned with. +3 fists, 70%+ MR, hide in shadows, 3-4 attacks per round, -7 AC,... you get the idea. At level 40, my monk has +4 fists, 93% MR, 4 attacks per round, -8 THAC0 with fists, AC of -10, and 150 HP - before any enhancing equipment. Add in the added abilities from ToB like Greater Whirlwind attack, you can take on Firkraag alone and have him beat in 2 rounds. Essentially, they are practically *unstoppable* [img]graemlins/tank.gif[/img]

And people call the kensai a powergamers kit. Sheesh. Never did like monks very much, in any game. The whole concept of beating on armored warriors and dragons with bare hands and feet just seems beyond ridiculous to me.[/QUOTE]Err... try fighting a guy who is master of martial arts when u r wearing a Full Plate Mail... U r gonna get ur ass whooped. People learning martial arts concentrates on speed, not brutal fighting like a zealot.
