Just reflavor a little, and you can use Booming Fist to do Thunder damage with your punches and kicks, and Shield can just be entering a defensive stance and blocking all attacks. And Misty Step is a literal anime Flash Step. I love this so much! Finally a monk caster that doesn’t suck! I can’t wait to see the polearm-focused Monk, too.

Dungeons of Drakkenheim subclasses are truly the first 3rd party subclasses i've found that aren't scared of making the subclasses a little more balanced and when needed, more powerful without going too far. I feel like every other book I've grabbed over the years are so afraid being accused of power creep, that they back off to the point where I'm just not interested. Great job, gang! @DnDDeepDive, I hope you do more of their subclasses, you'll love them all!

Impressive! Going by Colby's spreadsheet, this build has a higher base average DPR across all measuring points than any other sustained damage build - *78* (!) vs. the #2 spot Bladesinger's 74. However, it strikes me as more of a burst/sustained hybrid build; you're spending a lot of resources to get those numbers! 1 ki on every turn for Flurry, 2 ki on Focus Power (Spirit Shroud), 3 ki on Meditative Casting (Haste) = 8 ki in 3 rounds (not counting ki for rerolling saves with Diamond Soul or fixing attack rolls with Focused Aim), and 2 spell slots. Sure, once you rev up, you can keep going for 10 more rounds, but you're unlikely to ever need that. I think it deserves the spot, given how hungry it is.

Two things. First: Colby could you do the numbers if this was your new ashardalons stride build? Casting stride without concentration and then spirit shroud upcast or the other way around? I’m not sure which way would be more powerful. Second: I think I speak for everyone when I say that we want to see Colby in whatever campaign comes after the Fate of Drakkenheim. Make it happen! Clearly there’s already chemistry there and it was a good collab when he was in the one shots with you guys.

Bless is a much more reliable Fey Touched pick than Hex. Not only does it help your allies, improve your saves, and works against every target, it also help you maintain Concentration to ensure you can continuously add the bonus damage from Arcane Empowerment (without needing to stop up and recast Hex). It might now beat Hex in the spreadsheet against low ACs, but it will show much bigger results at the table and feel better upcasting to increase Arcane Empowerment damage during levels 7-12 before unlocking Spirit Shroud at level 13.

Had a Monk in my last campaign that used Stunning Strike to shut down a couple big Boss fights including a Big War Troll, but went down every few rounds including in that boss fight 😂. Still best encounter was getting to a fortress up a cliff in the middle of an island in a huge river. The Bard and Warlock flew in and were discussing how to get the Monk in when she jumped down to the water, ran across and then straight up the cliff. Was pretty Epic, so my point Monks are cool and deserve the buff this buold provides.

5 levels on Nature Cleric gives you both Shillelagh and Spirit Shroud with extra attack by level 10. It changes things a bit and looses some of the later features, but honestly in quite a good way. This is basically what I've been trying to attempt with a Ranger5/ClericX build but with more BA attacks (War Cleric) and with BB+Extra Attack (not an option for Arcana Cleric). This is now the trigger for me to actually want to play a Monk.

RE: Stunning strike. I think it's well balanced (because of high risk, high reward), but I actually have a problem with suck or save as a principle. Especially at bigger tables, waiting 50 minutes for your turn and then doing ABSOLUTELY NOTHING is just about the worst thing. When I had a monk player I told them that if the enemy succeeded their save on stunning strike they could spend 1 Ki point to take away reactions & bonus actions from the target. That way the suck is still a suck, BUT opens up another choice for the player, and if they're committed to controlling the opponent they just have to sink more resource into it. I would love WOTC to re-examine all suck or save instances and get creative about how to make it not so punishing. If that means giving it to monsters too, great! Now you have a new mechanic to design cool shit around. Like a class feature or item that allows you to nullify "suck" alternatives as a reaction or something.

When i tried to make a revised version of WotFE, (and revised base monk) I went a different route with their spellcasting. I made them follow mathew mercers profane soul spell progression and gave them augmented cantripa (alternate versions of gust, control flame, shapewater, and mold earth plus produce elements (produce flame but choose a damage type) I then gave them essentially invocations? 6 by level 20 but were made specifically for the subclass. Finally they were short rest pact slots, but long rest preparations with domain spells they could change on a short rest. But they had a limited curated spell list (wasn't publishing it so could pick from many sources) That it worked pretty good, i like how simple yet effective the arcane hand is though.

I really want to play an arcane hand monk as my next character, but I will still dip into cleric a bit for more slots and access to that spell list. Pick up inflict wounds to weave that into a melee attack burst. That spell is slept on I feel. 1st level melee spell for 3d10 necrotic. Thematically it's like a fighting game where you burn meter in a combo for a huge hit.
