I will be joining a 3.5 group in the near future. The group has been playing together for years, but this is my first time with them. (I know most of them outside of the group.) The group are all pretty-low op. (2 of the PCs are a Favored Soul/Ranger, a Fighter/Cleric. )
I've never played a psionic character, and have always liked the idea of unarmed combat. So I decided to build a Monk 2/Psychic Warrior 5. Help on the build is greatly appreciated.
Stats will be rolled with the DM. Focusing on STR, CON, and WIS. (The DM allows Monks to wear armor without losing the WIS to AC and Monk AC boost, so long as they also have a class that has training in the armor. Since PW get armor, I'm going to dump DEX and wear armor.)
Skills: Sense Motive, Autohypnosis. Concentration. Psicraft 4.
Race: Human, Synad, or Half-giant.
Leveling
Level 1: Monk 1. Feat: ??. Improved Grapple (Monk bonus feat) (If Human: ??)
Level 2: Monk 2. Monastic Training (Monk bonus feat)
Level 3: Monk 2/PW 1. Tashalatora. PW Feat: ??
Level 4: Monk 2/PW2. PW Feat: ??
Level 5: Monk 2/PW3
Level 6: Monk 2/PW4. Improved Manifester
Level 7: Monk 2/PW5: PW feat: ??
Feats I am considering
Invest Armor
Half-giant Thunderer (if I take that race)
Blind Fight
Extend Power
Speed of Thought --> Psionic Charge (I know Speed of Thought does not work with heavy armor, but it is a requirement for Psionic Charge.)
Psionic Fist
Psionic Meditation
Stand Still
Unavoidable Strike
Clever Wrestling
Close Quarters Fighting
Earth's Embrace
Eyes in the Back of Your Head
Powers known.
I get 5. These are the ones I am considering.
1st: Hammer, Claws of the Beast, Expansion, Grip of Iron, Inertial Armor. Precognition (Offensive and Defensive).
2nd: Dimension Swap, Dissolving Touch, Energy Emanation, Psionic Lion's Charge
Any source is allowed, but I only have access to some books. (PHB, DMG, MM I-V, Fiend Folio, Completes). Neither I nor the DM have TOB, so PLEASE do not recommend Swordsage.
