D&D MONKS, BUT GOOD, Part 3: WHY is the Pathfinder 2e monk more fun?
Added 2023-07-13 05:23:21 +0000 UTCHere, we see what our five very different monk builds from Parts 1 + 2 can look forward to at higher levels, and conclude with a breakdown of HOW EXACTLY Pathfinder 2e succeeded at making monks, varied, balanced, and fun.
This is Part 3 of a three-part series, "D&D Monks, But Good" about the Pathfinder 2e monk. I do it to showcase Pathfinder 2e and also to show TTRPG designers some solutions and mechanics that I think are effective at achieving PF2E's design goals.
