Well, just to show you the strength of a high level monk, here are the stats on my monk that I took through both SoA and ToB, without using any mods, tweaks, or cap removers (and obviously, without any items):
Level 40
AC: -10
HP: 150 (a little on low side, but rarely a problem)
Base THAC0: 0
THAC0 Using fists (+4 weapons): -7
Number of attacks (with fists): 4
Find traps: 145
Move Silently: 145
Hide in Shadows: 145
Saving Throws:
Paralyzing/Poison/Death: -1 (-2)
Rod/Staff/Wand: 3 (-2)
Petrify/Polymorph: 2 (-2)
Breath Weapons: 2 (-2)
Spells: 2 (-2)
Resistances:
Fire: 20
Cold: 20
Elec: 20
Magic: 93 ******** WOW ********
Poison: 100
Using this Monk in multiplayer games, the *ONLY* thing that has ever given him trouble is Kangaxx and that darn Imprisonment spell. And using Greater Whirlwind Attack, Quivering Palm, and other Ability bonuses, my monk can take on Dragons single-handed and clean house. So, yes, monks ARE good characters, but mostly once you get to level 25. Once there, you can just run him into a room of wizards/warriors, and he can take anything the wizards dish out, and wipe out the fighters rather quickly.
