Stryc9Fuego:
Since the only other DDO page hasn't had activity since June, I thought it would be a good idea to start a new thread rather than Necropost. This thread would be for generic DDO questions and discussion.

To start: I was considering rolling up a monk character, though they seem to be a glass-cannon melee specialist(glass fist? what do you call a fragile bruiser?), and that sounds like a... tricky combination to pull off. I was looking at the various stats, and came across this Level 20 Feat:
--- Quote ---Shining Star
Cooldown: 6 seconds
Usage: Active
Target: Foe, Directional, Breakable
You use the combined power of Earth, Wind, and Fire to set up harmonic vibrations within your enemy that force them to dance. A successful Will save negates this effect. (DC 10 + Monk Level + Charisma mod)
--- End quote ---
That's a special blend of cheese right there.

Nodaisho:
Not really. You already need dexterity to not get hit (no armor) and to hit assuming you get weapon finesse, strength do do decent damage, decent constitution so you don't die when something sneezes on you, wisdom for most of your abilities, and then charisma for another few. By level 20, will saves will be great on any enemies that are a threat, and a lot of them probably already have immunity to what likely counts as a mind-effecting ability.

Points for the joke there, though.

Felrender:
When do Bards get Irresistible Dance, though?

Nodaisho:
Probably a lot sooner, and I'm sure that wizards and sorcerers get various mind control and stuns much sooner as well. If the monks are anything like the 3.5 monks, they sound really cool, but all of their cool abilities rely on different things, so they are stretched too far, and the abilities that would be good enough to focus on are limited heavily, since someone decided it would be overpowered to have them more than once a day, but gave identical abilities as spells to wizards, sorcerers, clerics, and druids.

Stryc9Fuego:
Awright... if I'm seeing this right, Otto's Irresistible Dance is a 6th level Bard Spell and Bards get that spell level at level 16.
