Not that the strong back feat is at all necessary. Between both bags of holding (not including HoF), a single strong character can hold all heavy items between shops.

so far, i will take improved critical and dodge. I am not going to give my monk proficiencies in weapons, as i weant to have him as a straight up bare fist fighter (my attempt to RP an charicter) so i will probably take the feasts that grant better saves, as i often use him as a target for my mage AOE spells. which +save feat would be the best for me to take first, secound and so on...

also, when i go up in levels, and gain better stat points, should i put it into wisdom or dex (i remind you that i have the ease of use, improved monks fists) IIRC, wisdom will grant a better damage off each hit, but dexterity will increase chance to hit. both should increase my ac the same way. dont know if what i said was correct... so which would be the best stat to pick?

I'm not aware that monks use WIS as a damage bonus. It is a part of the target's saving throw on the Quivering Palm attack, but that's all I'm aware of.

That said, I wish that WIS were used as the damage bonus rather than STR for monks. It would seem more reflective of the entire monk package.

As for where to put stat points in a monk, I'd probably suggest DEX in that it would also improve both your attack bonus and AC.

yeah it makes more sense to mkae it part of their normal attack, huh. so should i keep putting all my points into dex? what would my dex be athe the end of the game? normal mode

Well, you get 1 stat point every 4th level. So, if you are playing a full party of 6, you can expect to end the game at a minimum of level 16. OTOH, you are talking about a deep gnome, so I'm not sure that he'll actually be level 16. You're probably talking about 3 additional stat points. Maybe, just maybe 4.
