ACG Ki Pool question


Rules Questions

Silver Crusade

I'm looking at combining a Master of Many Styles Monk(2) with Sacred Fist Warpriest(10+). I'm curious how the Ki Pool damage reductions will kick in, since it states This functions as the monk class feature, using the sacred fist's level -3 as his monk level when determining the numbe rof points in his pool and bonuses granted to his unarmed strike.

Question #1.) At what Sacred Fist Warpriest levels would the Warpriest gain the different Resistance Bypasses? - ie Magic, Cold Iron/Silver, Lawful, Adamantium.

Question #2.) Would the MoMS Monk levels stack with Sacred Fist Warpriest levels in regards to determining the value of the Ki Pool or Resistance Bypasses?

Question #3.) When spending a Swift action to use 1 point from my Ki Pool to grant myself a +1 insight bonus to AC, does this also apply the standard +4 Dodge bonus that is granted from the Ki Pool, normally?

"Ki Pool (Su): At 7th level, the sacred fist gains a ki pool.
This functions as the monk class feature, using the sacred fist’s level – 3 as his monk level when determining the number of points in his pool and bonuses granted to his unarmed strike. Additionally, the sacred fist can as a swift action spend 1 point from his ki pool to grant himself a +1 insight bonus to his AC for 1 minute. (This is in addition the normal ki ability to gain a dodge bonus to AC.) This insight bonus increases by 1 for every 3 levels above 7th to a maximum of +5 at 19th level). This ability replaces sacred armor.

Add both class levels together then subtract 3. This is your effective level.


1) 7, 10, 13, 19

2) I feel Rogar Stonebow is wrong. They are tracked separately. The MoMs hasn't gotten a Ki pool at lv2 so he doesn't have the feature to combine with the warpriest's pool even they would combine. Which I don't know if they would even then.

3 No, it's one or the other. It's giving you another option. it's saying that it's not replacing the dodge AC option. warpriests gives you 1 minute of use. While the other one is for 1 round.


Chess is correct; in order for levels in a class to count towards a feature they must actually possess said feature. In either event you get only one swift action per turn and insight/dodge bonuses are separate abilities.


Oops i was thinking specifically about monks. Forgot he was moms.
