Carmendine Monk Feat

[gbprime]

Technical question, and one I haven't seen in an FAQ anyplace.

Monk Wis bonus to AC does not stack with Druid Wis bonus to AC (Unearthed Arcana), but what about the Carmendine Monk feat (Champions of Valor)? That converts the monk bonus to INT instead. Does it still fail to stack?

Yep, it's still the same ability, just keying off of a different prime attribute. You'd get whichever one is higher and that's it.

i would say it will stack if you switch it to INT. i believe the reason that the two bonuses didnt stack was because they were both wisdom-based.

and even if they wouldnt stack, i would heavily consider allwong them to stack, since taking levels in monk stalls you being a better druid. its not like the build wouldnt be MAD anyway, so with a point buy system you are mitigating too much cheese
