The Flowing Monk archetype from Ultimate Combat gets a cool ability called Volley Spell.
Volley Spell (Su): At 15th level, when a targeted spell or spell-like ability fails to overcome a flowing monk's spell resistance, he may reflect the effect onto its caster as spell turning by spending a number of points from his ki pool equal to 1/2 the spell's level (minimum 1). This ability replaces quivering palm.
However, the Flowing monk doesn't get the spell resistance that a monk usually gets from Diamond body because of a different ability that replaces it.
So it looks to me like this ability is useless unless the Flowing Monk is under the effect of a Spell Resistance spell or some other outside source. Do you think this is intended, or it's just an oversight by the designers? How often can a flowing monk even get significant spell resistance?
This looks broken to me, and I don't know how to deal with it.
Diamond Body (Su): At 11th level, a monk gains immunity to poisons of all kinds.
Diamond Soul (Ex): At 13th level, a monk gains spell resistance equal to his current monk level + 10. In order to affect the monk with a spell, a spellcaster must get a result on a caster level check (1d20 + caster level) that equals or exceeds the monk's spell resistance.
So yes they get SR
Nevermind. I just realized that it's Diamond Soul that gives Spell Resistance. Not Diamond Body.
