Okay, so I'm reading through the monk vows and while they were without question meant for monk, though I was wondering if anyone else could take them. I may be wrong but my understanding of the text is that anyone can take them.It lists no requirements that I am aware of and the wording on the still mind replacement is as follows.
A monk who takes a vow never gains the still mind class feature, even if he abandons all his vows.
What I'm gathering from this is that pretty much anyone may take one if they were so inclined, simply not granting them the bonus to ki until such a time when they gained a ki pool.
While the beginning of the section says that these vows are available to anyone with a ki pool, every sentence in the first paragraph of "Monk Vows" in Ultimate Magic uses the word "Monk". Even if another class can get a ki pool, this passage clearly states that "A monk" can gain ki points by taking a "monk vows".
Frankly, I disagree with the "ki pool talent" available to rogues. So a rogue can gain a ki pool at first level, and a monk has to wait until 4th? This depowers monks and gives even more power to already powerful rogues.
The Ki Pool for a rogue is also a lot less useful than the ki pool a monk or ninja get
and also, major necro
already powerful rogues.
Again:
Wut
Is this your April Fool's day joke? Necroing "Monk Vows" threads and joking about Rogues being powerful?
