Definitely take toughness to bump your HP.


1.) How are you getting Power Attack at first level as a Monk?

2.) If you're not taking an archetype, why are you taking Stunning Fist as a feat?

3.) How are you getting Intimidating Prowess at level 2? That's not a Monk Bonus Feat.


i had a brain fart sorry listed stunning fist cause its a free feat


Even for Pathfinder...straight monk isn't the best option. However, some kind of utility gear would be nice, perhaps some kind of X/day flight capability. Talk to your DM about getting a vest of natural armor or something similar.

If you're doing anything related to unarmed striking, try to get improved natural attack.

I've only played a monk once or twice, but the best advice I can give is to try to get buffs from the party cleric, druid or wizard. A haste spell, extra protection, or a combat damage/attack buff is always nice.

Your first level feats seem off. You get one for first level. You get one for being human (because you said you were considering dual talented but it doesn't look like you'e taken it). You get a monk bonus feat, and then you get Stunning fist.


improved grappled was my monk feat i took, i have a first and second level feat to take first is normal second is a monk feat
