Just hit Monk level six and picked up Improved Trip. So far I've gotten some pretty good usage out of it, and am at the point where my Flurry of Blows is getting 3 to 4 attacks per round, depending on whether or not I use a ki point. Right now, though, I am considering taking a level or three in Rogue.
The reason for this is that I like opening up my flurries with trip, and hope one day to get Greater Trip. I also hope to get Vicious Stomp. This would mean that, in addition to my 3 or 4 flurry attacks (one of which is used for a trip, admittedly) I would be getting two attacks of opportunity. I'm thinking it would be pretty cool to add a d6 or 2 of sneak attack damage onto that combo.
The only real downside I see is that it slows down my progression of getting more attacks in my flurry, and increasing the damage die I get for unarmed attacks. Also, I can't really get Medusa's Wrath until I hit Monk 10, so that's a little unfortunate. Any thoughts?
