Monk - Flurry of Blows / Fast Movement


Classes: Bard, Monk, and Rogue

“I can make many multiple attacks in a round. I can also run really fast. I just can’t do both at the same time.”

These two abilities do not synergize. I raise this point because there is a very easy way to fix this, and it maintains “backwards compatibility”. The Snap Kick feat from the Tome of Battle is exactly what the Flurry of Blows should’ve been (possibly with special monk weapons, too, not just an extra unarmed strike), but replacing the Flurry with the Snap Kick allows you to move (or charge) and still get the multiple attacks the Monk is famous for.

Also, since I’m mentioning the Fast Movement, may I suggest making automatic to the class (or allowing an option within a list of options) the capacity to do more than just a 5-foot step. The 3.0 Arms and Equipment Guide made it possible, so how about making it core? This part here is not really a breaking point for me, I just thought it’d be cool.
