Hey all, Alternate Monk: Expanded is dropping tomorrow, but I wanted to release (at least on Patreon) my updates tot he Alternate Monk base class.

Admittedly, I may have gone a little too far with the nerfs in the last version, so you'll see some of them rolled back (full change log is below).

__________________

Martial Arts die: Scaling is now reverted to the 1d6 - 1d12 version.

Spirit of Tranquility: Moved down to 9th level, but to balance it out it now has a Ki cost associated with it - I personally think its worth it at 1 Ki Point.

Ki Adept: Now specifies the level and that it can be use once on your turn.

There are also some pretty big changes to the Astral Warrior and Yin & Yang!


Let me know what you think! And as always, thanks for your support!

The man took a deep breath and calmed his Ki as the ogre ran toward him. Thinking back to his training, he prepared to counter the incoming blow. As the club struck the dirt where he had been moments before, the warrior drew channeled spiritual power and let fly a flurry of blows on the beast.

Legitimate question: why would someone pick Slowing Strike when Stunning Strike is right there?

The main reason is that they target different saves. CHA is pretty uncommon while CON is the most common save monsters are proficient in.
