Monk archtype combo advice needed.


Advice

The Exchange

Iam building a monk for play in the society if the combo below is valid.
i cant find anything that says it does not work but iam still not sure.

the archtypes I plan to use are martial artist, monk of the sacred mountain and ki mistic.

lvl 1: martial artist monk,just for the alignment change.

lvl 2: monk of the sacred mountain, for Iron monk in place of evasion.

lvl 3: ki mystic, for the Ki mystic(su) in place of still mind

lvl 4: martial artist, for martial arts master and exploit weakness, replacing ki pool and slow fall

lvl 5: monk of the sacred mountain, for Iron limb defence in place of high jump.

my question is does lvl 3 and 4 fit togather? far as I can tell the Ki mystic(su) and ki pool abilities are not the same and iam therefore not replacing the same things.

This would allow me to still use abundant step, the ki cost for a better Iron limb defence and more.

What do you all think?


You don't get to pick and choose archetypes each level. You select an archetype (or archetypes) at the first level you take the class and stick with it for all of your levels in the class

Then I read the whole thing wrong on how archtypes work. :/

You can really only combine I think 3 Archetypes at most with Monks. If you try for 4 you'll probably almost always run into conflicts between Archetypes.

Those Archetypes pan out for your entire existence as whatever classes you're rolling with.

The only archetypes you can combine with Martial Artist are Halfling Underfoot Adept and Sensei.
