Monk's Robe


Rules Questions

Sovereign Court

So far I had been under the assumption that a monk's robe granted the user full monk level 5 fighting capabilities to the user (i.e. including improved unarmed strikes). As it currently reads it looks like you get a boost on AC/CMD and on your unarmed damage, BUT would still suffer an AoO while attacking unarmed (unless the item implies that improved unarmed strike is also granted).

How do you adjudicate this item?


Monk level 5 - monk's level increases by 6 for the purposes of AC, unarmed damage and if they have Stunning Fist feat they get one additional use per day.

Non-Monk - +1 AC and 1d8 unarmed damage (that still provokes AoO).

that's how my DM ruled it for my non-monk paladin... almost worth taking a monk level... hmmmm....
